Panther Shopping for Number 1 caliber WR, Top Priority

[Basbear]

Michael pittman is a 2024 FA playing on colts....he maybe a target, but why hurt your cam2.0 in letting him leave??

Kyle Bailey seems to be more and more convinced that Burns won’t be here after the trade deadline, so probably yeah

unfortunate to watch this team get so close to a competitive roster then start stripping down all the talent. Should’ve included Burns instead of Moore in the Bears deal. Offense is more valuable than defense, Moore was already signed, and he actually wanted to be here. 

A pass rusher is more valuable than a WR in a vacuum, but I completely agree with you here. I bet they made Burns untouchable, and now we're going to have to ship him out anyway for less after turning down two trades for him.

Yay let's throw away more draft picks when we're already missing a 1st in 2024 and a 2nd in 2025. 

I think fit is panicking and Trying to save his job

Seriously though. Please make this stop. These damn clowns are going to set us back a decade making knee jerk desperation moves.

At least it'll get them fired...

Last i seen higgins got cracked ribs, out 1-3 games.

 

Im like you, there are no #1 WR on the trade market. (i dont hold brown or even prime higgins as 1s)

i saw he was playing this weekend this morning. Did they announce they are sitting him? That timeline actually works out for us - if we did this

I still don't understand how people can honestly think Higgins isn't a #1

Far too often in today's NFL fans, they view things in terms of fantasy football, not real life football.

No, Higgins isn't a WR1 in fantasy football, he's "just a 2" for fantasy, but there are 32 teams in the NFL, if you don't think he's one of the top 32 WRs in the league, you don't know football.

No, he's not a Top 10 guy, but only 10 teams can have a top 10 guy, and that's if no teams have two of them (like the Dolphins might with Tyreek and Waddle).

But YES, Higgins is without question a WR1 in real life NFL football, no question about it.

Having said that, not sure the Bengals would give him to us for what I'd like, I'd do Burns for Higgins and a high pick (I'd like a first but don't think they do that, maybe a 2nd).  But I'm not sure they do that before they know they can't make a playoff run this year, and even then, not sure they're trading Higgins plus a pick for a player they have to give a big contract to, more likely will just trade Higgins for a pick.

4...... I repeat 4 starting OLmen were out and been missing in other games too.

fyi was one stud pro bowler LT tunsil...

howell is doing the same with nothing too, while young is scared theres a bates on every team......

 

Huh? Howell has Terry McLaurin, Jahan Dotson and Curtis Samuel as a slot (where he belongs). I'd trade every skill player we have for Terry Mclaurin.

Right. But for how long? He’s hurt literally every year.

And that is the right question.
