Anybody looking for a house?

Smitty's is still on the market (link)

Smith, who is under contract through 2012, has not publicly demanded a trade. But he clearly was unhappy last year – his worst from a statistical standpoint in a season when he was healthy.

According to MLS listings, Smith's 10,700-square foot home has been reduced from $2.9 million to $2.3 million.

Panthers coach Ron Rivera certainly has made no guarantees that Smith will be back. Rivera met with Smith before the lockout and told him: “We've got to go through this process and then we'll go from there.”

Smith's uncertain situation could affect how the Panthers approach the draft.

Some have pointed to the Panthers' visit with Georgia WR A.J. Green as a smokescreen to cover their interest in Cam Newton.

But the Panthers could be looking at Green – not with the top pick, but a slightly lower one if they convince a team to trade up – as a replacement for Smith. Assuming a labor deal is struck, Smith then could be used as trade bait for a veteran quarterback, or at a minimum, to acquire future draft picks.

I doubt we trade Smitty. If he leaves it will be because he wants to leave. As for Green, I would rather bring in a veteran who was proven. Exactly how many receivers have we developed lately? Plus we have a stable of guys already including Gettis,Lafell, Edwards, Martin, Clowney,Wright, and whoever we decide to pick up.
