Trade Down only option for 2022 draft?

We don't have that many holes.  QB and OL are the only two areas we absolutely must improve at.  Secondary, LB, DL, RB, WR could all stay the same and we'd be fine.  When you consider the money we'll have and what we could add in FA especially, I'd rather see what options we have in the 1st round than committing to trading down.

If it turns out trading down is the best option, then yeah.  But if a great tackle or guard or QB prospect is there for us in the 1st, I think we have to pull the trigger.

Don't like how everyone's just assuming we're getting a top 10 pick 

Reality  is we already have 4 wins and wining even just 2 more would drop us to a mid rounder easily. As bad as the panthers are we already beat two teams we have to face again in ATL and NO, still have to play questionable  WFT and Dolphins, and may play a bucs team resting starters late in the year .

Not to mention how games have been turning out lately lot of seemingly poo teams have been beating good teams..

You also can't assume we're getting exactly what we want in terms  of a trade down. Other teams aren't fuging stupid when they see panthers have no 2 or 3 they're not going to give up the farm for some mid round 1. They'll lowball Fiterrer on purpose because  they know the panthers are desperate  to get multiple picks to rebuild the o line and possibly a qb pick

Or trade players for picks.

This is really what we should have been doing instead of trading picks for players. You should never do that unless your a deep playoff contender and fitterer did that with a rebuilding team and roster .so all that does is make the rebuild more difficult  which is where we are at right now.

Yup if we're picking around 15, for someone to move up from the mid 20's they might give us a 4th. Maybe a 3rd if we swap some later round pick positions. The window to get picks for players closed last week, could have maybe gotten a 3rd or 4th for one of our cornerbacks or DE's to a playoff team. Lots of guys are free agents after this year

      Gameday Thread: KC-CAR

      By mav1234 · Posted

      KC has a very good defense this year. It is 5th overall. Yes, still worse than last year, but their offense is considerably worse. Their passing D may be their "weakness" but they still allow fewer than 20 ppg. BY completed several deep passes yesterday, and he was able to threaten downfield in ways he didn't seem capable of before the benching. I'm not necessarily worried about his ability to connect deep anymore. What to me was impressive was that he did all this without a run game. We used the pass to set up what little running success we had. Wild.

      Bryce developing before our eyes

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Solid and fair assessment.   I will say, one of the big things I noticed yesterday was that he wasn't shy to step up into the pocket in the face of pressure.  He's trusting the IOL.  And they took care of Chris Jones yesterday.  We had clean pockets but also good success rate vs. pressure which just hasn't been the case with Bryce.   If he has more confidence the OL gets it done and he can navigate and step up for throws, that's huge.  It's one of the biggest things that's held him back.  He was previously bailing quickly and just too easily throwing away or making dead plays.     He was finding his 2nd to 3rd reads within structure/without bailing in the pocket.  That was nice to see, as much concern I have with him.  And the overall limitations will always be there. Time to back it up this week against the Bucs.

      Some Thoughts on Our Remaining Games

      By 45catfan · Posted

      Suddenly the Cowgirls look like our best chance for a win remaining. I think the Bucs are playing better than the Falcons of late.  Our lone game versus the dirty birds is in the ATL where we always struggle.  The Cardinals are marginally better than I thought they would be. We are not beating the Eagles, they are starting to roll. I'm saying two at most, next week at home versus the Bucs and the Cowgirls.
