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. =/

    • At this point, I think Chubba is the odd man out. I hate that, but I think Dowdle gives us more production and big play ability.  But there is still a lot of football to play.  I think it depends on how much Dowdle will want too.
    • I’ve been anti-trade when it comes to Melo, but the way this season has started, it may be time.  I love his game and he’s a cool dude, but I’m starting to think, if he’s your best player, you’re never going to win anything of significance.  Too many brain farts, too many injuries, and ultimately for as fun and entertaining as he is to watch - his game is indeed a thing of beauty - it just doesn’t translate to wins.  And that’s IF he even plays.  I think it’s time to cash out and maximize the return.  I love Melo, but I think it’s pretty clear what the ceiling is for a team where he is the best player.
    • Every NFL team, college program, hell even HS has numerous "what ifs" that got derailed by injury. It's a brutal sport and half the battle is just getting lucky enough to stay healthy. Doesn't matter how durable you are and how well you take care of your body everyone is one weird hit or awkward twist away from a career derailing injury.
