I think the Panthers should just roll with what they have. We’re not a playoff team as currently constructed. Any acquisition will mean giving up valuable draft capital that we could probably ill-afford to lose. Trading away future assets is what’s gotten us into this mess.

For me it’s not about being a playoff team it’s about doing everything we can week to week to help make Young feel more comfortable.

Public desperation means higher asking price. And pretty much any receiver we could be looking at is going to be hesitant at best to play for this franchise. There's no in season fix here. We shouldn't be letting incompetent Scott Fitterer waste anymore resources.

We are not one player away on offense or defense. Best WR in the league doesn't fix our OG situation

Best WR in the league can help a young QB out regardless of the line situation. Look at the Bengals drafting Chase over an offensive lineman and then having immediate success and two deep playoff runs.

The only "notable WR" that could even be a realistic target for us is Higgins, anyone else and it's just internal discussions that won't go anywhere.

Adams is unhappy losing, he wouldn't be okay coming here, Jeudy isn't good enough to be a "very notable WR", I know we asked about Watson but GB isn't trading him, Hollywood will cost us too much for someone who is a FA after the season (and also isn't likely "very notable").

Unless we're talking to someone completely unexpected (like the Watson interest was) then I can't imagine this being anything more than the team internally wanting to go after someone who we either don't have the ammo to get or isn't a realistic trade target for us anyways.

This season is no longer about trying to contend, it has 1 goal and only 1 goal, to expedite Bryce's development.

I'm good with overpaying to get a WR to help with that, but it has to be someone who is young, can be kept long term, and most importantly WANTS to be here.  We can't get stuck with a diva WR who is unhappy with losing and it spreading like a cancer to the rest of the team, particularly the offense and Bryce.

I agree, but how many young WRs, assuming they are a WR1 or have WR1 potential, are really out there?

I don't know if they've talked to Detroit or Houston, but I like the thought of Jameson Williams and John Metchie with Young back together again.

      Best to see Icky in the position we drafted him in to see if he continues making progress. All signs point to Canales/Morgan staying on board and so decisions on whether to move him elsewhere on the line will probably be done during the offseason. Personally, I'm more concerned about a more long-term answer at safety and Moton's spot. Love the guy but he's a FA after 2026 and he'll be 32 by then. Kinda has that sign of having to let a player walk one year too early.

      All I am saying is IMO if we were going to rework or extend his deal I think it would have happened by now.   Just feels like they are going to bite the bullet and let it run its course

      I mean me speaking honestly per normal- RT is not even on my radar for needing fixing....it sorta should be, but I feel its around 20s in "hey this need attention". Motown could have another 5 years of solid play leftd in his body and mind. I know something needs to done with his contract, its had money pushed back into the late years like three times now. He got like a 38 million cap number cause rhule, frittterererer and this past season Dan deferred money.  I think he's been "healthy" for most of his career and seems to work hard at being able to play. He's a good player to have on the team. I got no idea how this plays out.   We need to have friendly bet about Christs next contract- I say he gets 8million per and 40% guaranteed. If he gets below that, you are the true kungfu master- deal?
