Panthers Considering Trading Back To The Jets?

So I read that the Jets wanted to trade up for Ingram. I have also read that Jacksonville wants him as well. SO it seems that if the Jets want him they will have to trade up to the 7th pick. But lets say he falls to the 9th pick. Who thinks we should pass on arguably the best DE in the draft to pick up a third or possibly a second. If we go down to the Jets pick we likely lose out on Ingram, Cox, Coples, etc. Mayock has said that the 8th or 9th pick is the demarcation line between an impact starter and a good player. Remember our track record in the second round....

So does this mean we could pick up Stephon Gilmore in the first, then possibly Jerel Worthy and Rueben Randle in the second? Hell yes.

Conventional wisdom is that GIlmore may likely be gone by the 16th pick and Worthy won't be there at 40, and Randle is projected in the 30- 40 range. Likely none of the players will be there at those spots if we trade down. Hence the issue with trading down....

Our team is not going to trade out of the number 9 position, I'm tellin ya. ESPECIALLY if players start falling which is starting to seem possible. Kalil not going to Vikings opens up so many things

I call smoke screen on kalil not going at number 3. The problem with picking at 9 is there really isn't a diffrence between whats there at 9 and the rest of the first round. Trading back would be the best option.

      So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?

      Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.

      Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
