I'd take a trade down a few slots followed by a trade back into the late 1st for someone they really like. That is the kind of trade up I can deal with. 

Just no trading future assets, you lose me 100% doing that stuff. It is my trigger point on a GM. 

I might be okay doing a trade that gets us some ammo for 2026, depending. 

 

On other teams outsucking us, I wish that could be decided head to head instead of this SOS stuff because they could outsuck us there.

Just depends on how far back we go.  I wish we could do what the Bears did to us, but I don't think any team is doing that soon. 

No team is as dumb as the Panthers have been. I can't even say that there is another team out there more desperate than this team has been even considering something so asinine as what the Panthers gave up. The Panthers are a cautionary tell on what trading up that high will do to your team if you get it wrong. It's just not worth it.

Its is what it is.. I think that we let BY ride the bench until after the bye week and then its all him for the rest of the season. 

Ultimately we need players. I honestly dont think we are too far away from competing... NEXT year we get DB back and we use this off season to fix the defense... then plunk in a QB and viola! ..............

viola! that would maybe put us at 8-9 9-8 best case.

Could you imagine..... winning 8 games in a season.......  Its been since 2017 that we have won at least 8 games. 

That was the year the Patriots beat the Falcons in the Superbowl.....

Wilks went 6-6 with a lesser team than Rhule went 1-4 with. I'd figure that as 8 or 9 wins. It was nice to think we had a chance in most games. Not all but we could at least compete with the teams ranked like 10-32. 

I know besides the recent Dalton starts it is the only fun I have had watching Panthers football since 2018 probably.

But we were assured that there was no price too great to ‘go get your guy’…

I fell into this trap of thinking.  If the team doesn't have a QB, what's the point, type thinking.  Then again, I never thought we would miss this badly 

The thing that got me was the cavalier attitude to the buy in. It was a huge risk whoever we took at the point we made that trade. And that risk was brushed aside, casually. 

It was like poor people buying a Cadillac. Or these days, an Escalade or something. You are gonna stay poor.

      You are inserting arguments I haven't made. The Chargers are definitively better but they were also far better than us last year. However, they ended up being a bottom 10 PPG and yardage defense in 2024. We were in the top 10 in YPG and bottom 10 in PPG. Harbaugh ball improved their defense and will likely(TBD) net improved W/L results this season, as well. I don't expect them to be a Super Bowl team in year 1.  I don't expect playing a little smarter and beating Atlanta is going to catapult us to being a .500 team either.

      I guess it all about perspective.  I feel like our 24 class looks decent so far.  Wallace is setting records for rookie tackles, XL is looking better than I thought at this point and already has a couple TDs, Coker is actually showing ability.  I'd assume Brooks will be a decent RB because that's a pretty safe position, but I know what assuming can do.  The average draft class has 1 maybe 2 players get 2nd contracts.  We already have several flashing some ability.

      We have at least 2-3 more years of top 10 drafting so we have to be sure to make those picks count. That's the sort of foundation that can get us to being a consistently winning team and possibly a contending team. Hopefully the 2024 draft went well. I am extremely skeptical of that one but if it did, that could very well be step 1.
