Hello, it's me, Sam Mills Fan. This organization is falling off a cliff.

I officially hit my breaking point today with the news that the team is looking to trade Trai Turner. Thanks to David Tepper's worship of the numbers, it looks like we're following in the footsteps of two very awesomely ran teams in trading away the entire team for draft picks: the Cleveland Browns and the Miami Dolphins. 

When I think of smart teams I want to emulate on how they run things, I definitely always think of the Browns and Dolphins and how much incredible success they've had lately. This will go very well. We'll have Ryan Tannehill, lots of picks, lots of cap room, and no good players of note. Tepper and Hurney and Rhule are about to turn us into another expansion team, only this time without the help of an expansion draft. 

#TrustTheProcess doesn't work in the NBA and it sure as poo doesn't work in the NFL. Prepare to be as irrelevant as the Hornets soon.

Brother we are already there.  We have been for at least the last two seasons.

And we’ll land right on Trevor Lawrence’s beautiful flowing golden locks which we will also use to climb back up the mountain.

He'll be good, but he'll take us from 1-15 in 2020 to around average for a few years after that. Anyone that thinks this team is contending prior to like 2024 is insane.

i'd rather see us lose with guys trying than lose with guys mailing it in. i'm looking forward to seeing "the process" play out with younger guys getting a chance to prove their worth. i'm more excited about this season than the last three under rivera.

      Passing yards per game leaders

      I mean it's not even like this was his worst game of the season... I'm not done with him by any means but this feels more the norm for him than the exception:/

      BREAKING: Panthers Announce Four Moves Including LB Trevin Wallace To IR

      By mav1234 · Posted

      I'd give it a C mainly because of Brooks.  If we just didn't have a 2nd I'd argue B to B+ tbh. Brooks was a bad gamble, tho one that could still pay off long term. Yes XL only has 400 yards but... Look who is throwing him the ball. And I think he isn't a "true #1" but he's been able to consistently get open. Hands definitely need to be cleaned up.  But he should end the year with 500-600 yards. Like you said - Sanders looks great.  Get him a better QB / more time with a QB and I think he's gonna impress. We added a couple rotational players on D that have both made plays and show promise for the future from later rounds. So I'd say, Brooks really hurts this drafts grade. It'll be interesting to see how it progresses over the next 3 years. I've overall really liked Morgan's FA acquisitions, so...

      Would you trade Ickey

      Oh he would absolutely flourish. It’s the panthers way. It’s no different with coaches. Sometimes they reach their expiration date, go somewhere else, and find new success.  Similarly to Burns, how long to wait for the light to finally turn on?  Market forces will demand a salary that the panthers can not responsibly match. Sliding him to guard will fit his skill set better, but he has played LT for 3 years. He will receive offers from other teams wanting to pay him LT money.  At guard, he won’t start with what they have paid Hunt and Lewis. Center then?? Dunno. Maybe? He will become a backup by default once they draft their stud LT. I doubt Dan just stands pat. That’s not his MO.  So where does this put him? Can you match what other teams will offer for a backup LT/guard? Do you dish out franchise LT $ on a guy who still needs significant improvement in pass protection. This team will be DOA in the playoffs with the very first team who has a formidable speed rusher. What if he has hit his ceiling in pass protection already and they sign him long term? It’s a big gamble either way.
