Trading down. Smart or dumb?

I was thinking about it, and the holes we have at LT lack of quality starters in on the line.  Missing another receiver.  Would trading down and grabbing another 3rd or another late second be smart or dumb in our situation?  

 

In before "I wish the offseason would end."  Or "Man, this thread sucks."  Or "thread sucks."

Smart if it happens. On the flip side, with everyone wanting to trade down it may not take much to trade up and grab Taylor Lewan.

Lets say that someone in the 10-15 range would swap 1st Rd picks with us for our 3rd? Do we pull that trigger? We would be getting perhaps the most Athletic LT of the draft. Doubt that offer would be there but as a fan, would you approve or not?

So his primarily purpose is to appease others?

It happens pretty often on this board. Like, instead of writing something more captivating, people will just leave a huge wall of text that nobody's going to read and then append it with a "TL:DR" one sentence description that covers everything they said in 1200 words.

I know trading down is this new concept that's never been discussed ad nauseum before that it needs its own thread but somehow I get the sense that it would've been good enough to just pick any one out of 100 already existing threads going over the same poo to post this in and it would've been fine.

I don't think so, while Lewan is certainly worth the move, do we want to give up a third in such a talented and deep draft? I feel like you're likely passing up on a starter.

That's a lot of text to just say "this is a redundant thread"

Yes, because I would like to hear other Panthers fans opinions on this subject that aren't dick faces.

K cool I was wondering why you had no confidence in this thread as if it would go over like a fart in sunday mass but with put downs like that I guess if I were you I wouldn't have confidence in any idea I came up with.

      Dave Tepper gives Canales and Dan Morgan vote of confidence

      By frankw · Posted

      You and I both know there isn't a coach we could or can still hire that can "fix" Bryce Young. Even at mighty Alabama with one of the best modern coaches in college football history Mac Jones was still a better QB than Bryce Young. Mac Jones.... We already know how you feel about Canales on a personal level so in that regard you wanting him fired is not news. You don't have to disguise it behind this shroud of rabble about not fixing Bryce Young. To his credit he somehow had us competive against the Chiefs and the Eagles on the road with #9. But no coaching staff can overcome their starting QB turning the ball over 4 times. We definitely have developed some of our younger offensive pieces. And as far as Evero goes he has earned criticism and if he's fired so be it but in his defense many of us said in the offseason this defensive roster was a disaster waiting to happen given the resources we spent on the offense while neglecting the defense. That was Dan Morgan's plan. He swung too hard toward offense to salvage the Bryce Young trade. That's on him. We can scream about XL all we want but at least he's actually been on the field for the most part. The Brooks pick was a luxury pick at the time and now it is a Hurney level blunder. Dan Morgan has gotten a lot of early praise here when in reality he's unequivocally deserving of significant criticism. But if you say that some people get up in arms because he's a former Panther. Big whoop. He has just as much to prove this upcoming season as Canales. That's why to me in my own personal opinion I say one more season and then if it's more of the same say goodbye to both.

      It's a decent vid with compelling reasons for his opinion. But, my thing is is that you simply can't draft McMillan thinking he is a surefire WR1. There are questions. His 40---rightly or wrongly---will play a part. I'd think that his splits (which will speak more to his game translating to the pros in my mind) are more important.  As much as you're trying to sell us that McMillan is a don't-overthink-it-type-of-player, I wouldn't say that's the case. Workouts will play a part in all of this.  At this point, I like the thought of Tetairoa. That's as much as I can give you right now.
