Trade Burns for Jaylon Johnson and some picks
Varking replied to Varking's topic in Carolina Panthers
A corner and two draft picks that we could use on .... drum roll.... offensive players to .... drum roll .... help Bryce on offense!!! Good lord this reply might be the worst reply on the huddle I have ever seen in the history of the huddle or its previous iterations. Lets be overly dramatic rather than add any sort of value to the conversation. -
Trade Burns for Jaylon Johnson and some picks
Varking replied to Varking's topic in Carolina Panthers
The rumor on the Bears sub is that this will help give Johnson a view of what other teams would pay him now, they don't trade him away, and they offer him a contract that matches the best of what his agent could get from another team. -
Trade Burns for Jaylon Johnson and some picks
Varking replied to Varking's topic in Carolina Panthers
A bird in hand. Burns is still very young for the NFL. The only other trade I feel would be better for the Bears would be trying to make a trade in similar fashion to the Commanders for Chase Young plus other assets. -
Jaylon Johnson and the Bears could not come to an agreement on a contract extension and his agent was told they can seek a trade. He is a true #1 corner and has had to cover #1 with an inferior pass rush the past few seasons. We obviously have corner issues here in Carolina. Right now Troy Hill and CJ Henderson are our starting Corners and Jaycee Horn is never available. We lose both Troy Hill and Henderson at the end of the year to free agency as well. I would make the pitch: **Panthers get** CB Jaylon Johnson Chicago Bears 2nd round pick ( Currently 37 ) Chicago Beards 3rd round pick ( Currently 68 ) This would give Carolina picks 34, 37, 66 and 68. **Bears get** DE Brian Burns We get a long term secondary player and some decent draft capital back after the trade up to get Young, and extend him for significantly cheaper than what Burns is going to get. Chicago gets the pass rushing DE they have been after and can sign him easily as they have the most cap space going into next season and the second most the year after that. I also think it makes sense for Chicago to trade Justin Fields right now ( I am not sure I believe his dislocated thumb can't grip a football this week ) and they already announced TBag is the starter this week. I think that is to give Tyson all the reps with the ones while they take offers for Justin so they can get some of this draft capital back. Johnson is an 84.4 grade on PFF is thats your kind of thing. And he is doing this with no pass rush. Chicago is dead last with 10 sacks as a team. 5 lower than the next lowest team. Chicagos leading sack guy has 2 on the season.

Why Trading Burns is the Only Path to Getting a #1 WR in 2024
Varking replied to tukafan21's topic in Carolina Panthers
Firstly, the kid has a hard time holding onto NFL passes right now. Secondly they have him in a rookie contract with a few years left on it, why would they give up on him already? -
I’m a sucker for the blue. Hopefully I’ll have a Young jersey come year 3.
-
Yeah I knew that. Hence the lol in the reply. Was trying to be light.
-
I’m significantly younger than this gent and would never pull what he did there lol. I still rock my Cam Newton jersey to the games. When we have another QB lead us to a Super Bowl appearance or back to back winning seasons I’ll snag another jersey.

What are you going on about? I said just that about Mike Evans for like three straight comments. He pointed out that Evans isn’t a burner and I said he still had good wheels. He said he preferred Higgins because he’s more twitchy fast and younger and I said he was the same type of player as Evans. Meaning he is a good speed but not great and he wins the 50/50 balls. There’s zero need for the dramatics. -
He’s not been good at all tonight.

Not the right thread for this convo but yes.

@Zodplease do this again

PathersWire: Best and worst PFF grades week 8
Varking replied to SZ James (banned)'s topic in Carolina Panthers
Having Horn come back healthy would be a nice boon to the secondary too. -
How is correcting somebody a negative thing?
-
I keep hearing chatter from folks here about trading for Jamo on the Lions and he seems to have the yips at the moment. No big runs, dropping everything.
-
Henderson has himself another solid game.
-
Let’s not talk trash in a positive vibes only thread. No need to take shots at folks who prefer CJ in here.

CJ Henderson not in the bottom 5 once again. Proud of him. -

Tee is the same type of player as Evans but less successful. Tee had a 4.54 40 and Evans was 4.53. -
Why Trading Burns is the Only Path to Getting a #1 WR in 2024
Varking replied to tukafan21's topic in Carolina Panthers
I mean he still has a 70 yard TD on the year on a ball that traveled like 15 of those yards. He can still run away from folks from time to time. You don’t get to 1k yards every year for 10 years if he can make 500 more yards this season, without still having good speed. He’s a guy that you can pay for 2-3 years and feel great about it. Anything longer is likely a bad contract. -

Evans won’t be coming here but he still has plenty of speed left. He’s got like 5 plays over 30 yards this season even at his WR advanced age. -
Any vet QB can do that. It doesn’t need to be Andy. And I think most folks here played football into college and are well aware of locker room dynamics. If anyone in the league is willing to offer a pick for Andy Dalton, you take it.

I’m convinced that with above average WRs Young can be VERY good
Varking replied to TheBigKat's topic in Carolina Panthers
We valued two defenders who need contracts more to help out our rookie QB than a stud young WR he could grow with. -

https://www.profootballrumors.com/2023/05/d-j-moores-contract-factored-into-bears-trade-effort Poles also talked about it himself. It didn’t need to be DJ. -
This doesn’t change my belief of it. Dalton hasn’t helped any QB live up to their hype since he left Cinci.
