How is that a dead ball ?

I have a strange feeling we are just going to give the pick away just to recoup a 2nd

I doubt he is there at 6 even if he was that doesn’t help our problems

Here is the thing about you folks simply saying trade down trade down. #6 pick is incredibly valuable. If we didnt get a good enough offer last season to move off then someone is going to have to blow our doors away to move up to 6. I dont see a team getting that desperate. I mean we are probably talking 2/3 picks this year and a first next year for a team to move from the teens up. Even then I probably wouldnt do it. This draft is crazy top heavy

Well he fully (wrongfully) implemented the trade down strategy of the Hawks. They have a franchise generational qb threatening to leave because they have not built even a remotely adequate line to protect him.

Make no mistake, some how some way they are going to fug up this golden opportunity pick #6. Lock it in stone

How was that not incomplete?

I would physically break something if that was the pick

https://www.nfl.com/news/daniel-jeremiah-2022-nfl-mock-draft-1-0-kenny-pickett-malik-willis-among-3-qbs This is one weird mock draft Has us taking Ahmad Gardner, CB at 6

PJ Walker will certainly lead us to the promise land of the #1 pick

How many coaches/coordinators will this be trying to fix sam? 5 in 5 years?

He’s hurt its an 18 million dollar cap hit his contract is horrendous it literally makes no sense your turn

nah, we just literally posted why its not happening if you think it can please post a realistic scenario. I will wait with bated breath

Wtf has fitt done? Given up draft capital and wasted capspace for 2022 for nothing

This is the way

Maybe I am just telling you what he said.

With our luck Jackson is going to be bradbery 2.0

He said he couldn’t do that. The business side was in such disarray that he had to focus on that first. Would have been tough to do it all and run his business.

I could make an argument against signing either

I dont know what that means. What rookies? Without looking at the contracts I am not sure you can free up that much money just to trade cmac. It doesnt make sense. And in looking at the goff trade they also sent draft capital to the lions for taking on that contract. So we sure as hell are not doing that.

Its 18 million dollars in dead cap. Please show me a example of a team trading a player and navigating that hit. Oops just saw Goffs hit was 24 million so thats a first https://overthecap.com/salary-cap-space/ But according to this we dont have the space to do it without revamping the contracts on the roster or outright cutting people. Seems like a lot to do to just trade a player and get a pick(s)

Its not my opinion its just the facts. Fitt has to say that. The cap hit alone would cripple this team. Its an impossibility to trade him this offseason. Probably the same next year as the hit is still pretty heavy but more sustainable.

We should be drafting lineman in the first every other year in the draft until this poo gets sorted out

From Person: What do you think our draft strategy is considering the lack of top-100 picks? Trade back and get a second or third round or settle for just a top-10 pick? I think ideal would be trade back to mid-round and Cross is still available, then maybe QB second round. — Sean F. A few of you asked about the possibility of trading back, including Logan T., who deserves a mention here since he was the first to jump in with a question after we opened up the mailbag Thursday morning. After Fitterer was hired last year, he explained his philosophy on draft trades, which he brought from Seattle after his 20 years there. The Seahawks believed that if they were outside the first 18 picks or so, they could trade back as far as 40 and get the same caliber of player. Seattle was less inclined to move back on those rare occasions under Pete Carroll when they were picking early. “If you’re not in the top part of the draft, we’re gonna try to acquire picks,” Fitterer said last January. Sure enough, three months later, the Panthers stayed at No. 8 and took Jaycee Horn, then proceeded to make a flurry of trades later in the draft. All of which is to say that Fitterer figures to treat this year’s No. 6 like gold. As mentioned above, the best plan for overhauling an overmatched offensive line would be to draft a left tackle, whether it’s NC State’s Ikem Ekwonu, Alabama’s Evan Neal or Mississippi State’s Charles Cross. But the Panthers have several other needs — including at least one guard, a safety and a middle linebacker — and, as Sean F. noted, no other picks in the top 100 after No. 6. Their second- and fourth-round selections went to the Jets as part of the Darnold trade, and Fitterer dealt the third-round pick to Jacksonville in the Dan Arnold-for-C.J. Henderson swap. The rest of the Panthers’ draft inventory includes a fourth, two fifths, a sixth and a seventh. It’ll take some draft-weekend magic for Fitterer to take that chicken slop and make chicken salad. It could mean moving players. A personnel official with another NFC team said the Panthers’ top four trade chips are Christian McCaffrey, receiver D.J. Moore, defensive end Brian Burns and linebacker Shaq Thompson. And though Fitterer said he’s not looking to trade McCaffrey, he indicated he would listen to offers for everyone, the All-Pro running back included.

From Person: Is Brady Christensen bound to be an OG or do you see Matt Rhule giving him a shot at LT? I thought he showed some good things during the few games when he was lined at that position. Thanks. — Guillaume G. Rhule and Fitterer both said nice things about Christensen and left open the possibility that last year’s third-round pick could be the left tackle of the future. But they also made sure to point out Christensen’s versatility, with Rhule saying he’s confident Christensen will start … somewhere. But given what we’ve heard from Rhule previously about Christensen’s arm length and the fact that this is a draft loaded with talent at the tackle position, I’d bet they draft a tackle high and slide Christensen inside to guard.
