Rumor: Mike Goodson Traded To The Raiders?

Can't believe the complaining by some. Always lots of of criticism of the FO when a player leaves and the Panthers got nothing for him. Goodson was on the chopping block. The fact we got anything for him is pretty amazing.

A change of scenery is good for some players. Rivera and co have a rep has good teachers and developers of young talent. Campbell has a chance at a fresh start. If he has any pro potential....I trust Rivera, et al, will get it out of him. If it turns out he does not....Panthers really lose nothing. If the guy makes the team...a bonus. If he becomes a contributer ....a steal.

A no lose situation here.

Welcome to the Carolinas Campbell. Best wishes to Goodson. Hope the left coast is good for him.

The fact that you have to resort to pulling college videos of him to find a highlight reel kind of speaks for itself though doesn't it?

Not really. How many years has he been in the league? 1? 2? And I doubt he has been given much chance to start. Not much to work with on him from the NFL. I'd love to see an NFL highlight film on Goodsen. It would be about 5 minutes of fumbles.

you just can't make people happy. They are never satisfied because they have no clue how the NFL/Life works. All they know is that fantasy bullshit and Madden

I was about to post exactly this. Seriously just yesterday these people were saying "Hurney never gets value out of players before they leave", now he goes out and gets a project lineman who could end up being a quality player and so many people are up in arms that we traded for him. Silly.

Goodson was better than yall are crediting him for. Sure, he fumbled a few times, but nobody hates, say, Steve because of that stupid fumbled he had last season while "showboating".

Goodson did well with the time he had. Every young player has problems with something, and it takes playing time to get over that thing.

He would never get much playing time with the Panthers because of who is in front of him. And I don't see him doing that great elsewhere either. He's an average RB at best.

6 career fumbles

And that's all anyone remembers.

Not true. Dude has talent, but for whatever reason, Rivera didn't want him on our team. No one on this forum has a clue about what possible attitude problems he may have demonstrated in practice. Rivera does. I'm not saying that's the reason, I'm simply pointing out that he was in Rivera's doghouse all year for a reason and I doubt the reason was only fumbleitis.

    • 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?
