Man I was high on him coming out. His only problem is injuries, when he is on the field he is one of the best FS in the league. I believe he is a free agent coming up soon and I was hoping we would target him. He is on the trade block now. What would it take to get him and should we make a move?

He is super young with immense talent.

It's a bad sign the Colts are trying to trade him since he's so young. Something is up. The Panthers do have the Colts former D-Line coach now so maybe he has some inside knowledge on Hooker, which might make the Panthers a possible trading partner, but since the Panthers re-signed Boston and added Juston Burris, I really don't see this happening.

He's never played a full season and he's at the end of his rookie contract. No sense in trading something real for him just to have to pay him if he's not going to be meaningfully better than Burris and Boston. On the other hand there's not much talent in the defensive backfield right now anyway, so if he's cheap (fourth, fifth round pick) then there's probably a way to for him to help.

He has played in at least 13 games the past two seasons so he appears to have normalized health wise. 

This is just like the 49ers right now with Kwon Alexander & Tartt (who I love for us)...it's something that's weighed around value, market availability and contract expectations. 

I'd hop on the Jaquiski Tartt or Hooker train but we'd be putting a lot of $ in the safety group after paying Burris and Boston.  We actually seem primed to draft a guy at the position.

Nah. Panthers need young guys with upside that can be coached, not dudes getting dumped by their former teams because they can't stay healthy

No offense but hooker is like 23 years old and immensely talented. I’d take a shot at him for the right price.

Yeah, I really liked him coming out of college, but some guys just can't catch a break on the injury front. Injuries derail a lot of promising careers. Not that Panthers fans need to be reminded of that.

      We looked like a competent NFL team PIE thread

      By Prowler2k18 · Posted

      We could easily pick apart yesterday’s game: dropped passes, blown coverages, bad tackling and red zone issues to name a few. But it was clear that this wasn’t the same team from earlier in the season. They fought back and hung with the champs until the end. That’s what I was excited to see and it gives me hope that we’re on the right track.

      Bryce developing before our eyes

      By Pejorative Miscreant · Posted

      I think BY played well today and exceeded expectations. I will temper future expectations as he has to string together many games of consistent quality. One game doesn’t convince me that he is a franchise QB or even a guy you want to stick with for another season. One game doesn’t erase all the negative play and limitations from the past couple of years. I hope he balls out and continues to get better but for me the verdict is still out   That said, I think he gave the team and fans hope yesterday which is a lot more than what we had when we woke up Sunday morning.

      Bryce Young - Good and Bad, what say you?

      By Ricky Prickles · Posted

      He was vastly improved today and we need to see more of Bryce the rest of the season to continue evaluate him in order to decide what the heck to do with him at the end of the season. He must play at least like this and improve more from here the rest of the season in order for me to keep him. No more 123 yard passing games and want to see at least this output weekly from him. If this is Bruce improving slowly over time then Canales is even better with developing QB's than I thought he was but still too early to tell and we need to see him the rest of the way as he has at very least earned back the starting gig moving forward.
