Trade Down/Free Agency Idea?

Does anyone know how long a player remains a RFA? I am not talking about years, but for how many months? I just had this idea in my head, how Mike Wallace was a 1st round tender, and there is no way we would ever give up #9 for him. However, I was wondering if he would still be an RFA during the draft, if we were to trade #9 with the Patriots for 27, 31 and a 3rd round pick, if we could then have a deal in place with wallace, to sign him, and give up either the 27th or 31st pick we got from the Patriots. I don't know if RFA's work like that but it was just something I kinda thought up out of the blue. If any of you know if this could be possible feel free to let me know.

A team can only sign a guy with a first round tender if they use their original draft piack. The panthers wouold have to trade the 9th pick for the first round tender. This is so teams can not trade back to improve their draft situation and put a restricted tender on someone.

In a perfect world, we'd be able to do that. But we wouldn't have the money for itt. He'd want a big contract and we just don't have the money thanks to hurney's over spending on our own players. I understand that he wants to pay our players, but damn man, you just screwed us over for this year and next year. =/

    • Appreciate that, bro!  And I could definitely see that with Cam.  Even though he’s a little younger than me, he is also someone I admire and feel a kinship with for a lot of various reasons. Funny enough, a few years after that encounter with Steve, I went to Charlotte with one of my friends whose brothers owned a moving company at the time.  He dropped me off uptown and went to work the day with them where I would wait until he got done and then we were gonna go to the Bobcats game that night.  So I walk all through that area for hours.  After awhile, I walk back towards the arena and sit in a bench on the backside of the arena, where the practice court and player’s entrance was.  As I’m sitting there, I look up and almost think I’m seeing things - I squint and blink my eyes a couple times just to be sure, and yes…  it’s one of my childhood heroes, Muggsy Bogues walking across the crosswalk and into the arena.  I think he was coaching the Sting then, iirc.  Part of me wanted to just say, “Hey!  Muggsy!  Thank you for the inspiration and memories!  You were one of my favorite players as a kid!”  But, I just watched him walk by and into the arena and thought, “that was cool!”  I also so Miguel Cotto a couple years back while in Orlando and told my kids who it was but didn’t say anything to him.  I think somewhere in my subconscious, that encounter with Steve really made me feel like the gamble on finding out if they’re receptive to interaction just isn’t worth finding out.  At the end of the day, no matter if they’re receptive inspired us or were a hero, unless they initiate it, I likely never will…  because again, they’re humans just like us.  Not anymore unique or special, they just have a highly visible and very public job that we get to watch and in some ways participate.  So, I just appreciate it for what it is.
    • I'm pleasantly surprised they gave it to Bryce Young over Josh Allen. Finally we're getting some respect. Now I'm just hoping the team follows this up accordingly and doesn't lay another egg.
    • What weird blood red moon has cast its spell?  What’s next, dogs and cats sleeping together? Bonus question:  Did Canales open up his playbook or did Bryce find an extra high gear in his stick shift?
