Why the do we NEVER GET ANYTHING for our guys! They walk away and we are always left with peanuts. It just never makes sense to me. If someone could explain logically I'd appreciate it.

 

Jonathan Jones says that we would be lucky to get a 3rd round pick for our MVP. And all of the guys we have lost in free agency and moving forward plus the guys in the past we just never get any ROI on any of them. Why is that?

Because Tepper knows nothing about football and has kept Hurney in charge.

What do you expect for a player that has not played a full healthy season in years and who we are not even sure will ever be 100% again? 

We're getting comp picks most likely for everyone else and quiet frankly the people leaving I have almost no interest in signing for what they are signing for

 

It's rebuild time, again, what did you expect? We have tons of shitty contracts we are still paying for and it's the time of the rebuild where we dump

That's what I'm getting at. I don't fully understand the contracts and how they work and would never attempt to act like I do. If we trade Cam for a 4th is there anyway to get anymore comp picks if he performs? How does it work.

 

Or do we just get a 4th or whatever they're willing and then move on to the draft.

We'll get lucky to get a 3rd because the rest of the league knows how badly the FO wants to get rid of Cam. They dont have to jump up and offer a 1st for a guy they know may just be released when we sign Bridgewater. 

Announcing on the teams social media that they are "allowing Cam to look for a trade" was a mistake as i takes all the bargaining power away from our side. Dont be surprise when we dont get anything for him because Hurney and Tepper are fuging idiots.

Did you see yesterday? We made a couple of shitty signings as part of our "rebuild"

Could you imagine the uproar if we traded Cam to the Pats for a 3rd and they won the SB while we ended up winning just enough games to pick 3rd or 4th in the draft and get to sit there and watch Lawrence and Fields go elsewhere while we forlornly toss another rotting bag of garbage into our dumpster fire?

      Would you trade Ickey

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      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.

      We're in a great position to see just how big of a misstep it would be, having made so many ourselves

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

      By SCO96 · Posted

      I didn't say I would have done it. I was just saying that I can see why some in the FO considered it. Everything was done to give Bryce weapons. Solidify the interior line thru FA. Get XL at WR in round 1 and then get the most talented RB in round 2. Take a TE in round 4, etc They were probably "assuming" he'd make a complete recovery during the 2024 season. I'm a skeptical person. I wouldn't have assumed he'd be ok in 2024. I personally would have taken another position in the 2nd for that very reason. But, if I were "influenced" to take him I would've argued to keep him off the field, especially seeing how things were going for us record wise. Conventional Wisdom says most backs don't get back to normal until two years after the ACL surgery. He was injured in Fall 2023. Having him suit up in 2025 would have been almost 2 years since the original injury. You have him for 3 year on low contract. If he balls out, you resign him for a couple of more years b/c he'd only have 3 years of tread on the tires. If he's ok but not great you let him walk.
