Give up a 2015 1st round pick for franchise WR?

Watching the Panthers season unfold, we're wildly over-performing with the possibility of being not only the #2 team overall but #1 overall if we get a couple of breaks. All this success might all go to waste and come to an abrupt end in the playoffs because of the lack of talent in the WR position. The only thing holding us back is the WR corps. If we had a Sammy Watkins or Mike Evans on this roster I don't see how any other team in the NFC would be favorite to beat us.

 

This year we're selecting in the mid to late 20s in the draft and those days of selecting ROY candidates in the draft are gone. Our days of building through the draft is now gone because we're a playoff team our 1st rounds picks are glorified 2nd round picks. We're now the NE of the NFC, we beat teams methodically. We thrash bad teams, wear good teams down with Cam waiting at the clutch. But this is not sustainable as young team.

 

Would it be a good idea to give up a 2015 glorified 2nd round pick to move up to get our franchise WR. We really need it.

This Draft is Deep at WR's so even as late as we will be drafting we can easily get a Talented #1 WR where we will be sitting,  and possibly even get a guy in the 3rd talented enough to be a stud #2 (granted we fill the other holes in the 2nd and FA)  would love to be able to move Smitty to the slot.

      The good thing about replacing a bad player is you really have nothing to lose. If their replacement is bad so what, you didn't get much worse and probably saved money.

      I came over from the old Panthers Insider site. When Fox Sports bought that platform it slowly just started dying plus the guy who ran that site was dealing with some pretty significant health issues so the whole thing just slowly fell apart. Quite a few of us migrated over here. Not sure how many are still around.  I miss that place. It struck a nice balance of having enough active posters to keep productive conversation flowing but didn't have so much traffic that you end up with a lot of trolling BS. This place is getting there though since we shutdown new registrations but at some point we're going to have to open it back up or we'll watch this place slowly die off too as posters fall off for one reason or another. We just have to figure out a way to filter out the spam bots. It was a never ending battle to ban the spam bots to keep then from overrunning the site. You'd think they'd be a little more strategic. I mean, if you fill a site with nothing but spam people are just going to stop coming so it's not a sustainable model. But nope, every one of them makes dozens of duplicate threads filling up pages upon pages as soon as their account goes live.

      lol...I don't remember that.  Although recalling what I had for breakfast yesterday is sometimes a challenge.  Hope it was a positive thing.
