Trading up

[PantherPaul]

First off I'm against it but I've read that folks are speculating the Panthers trade with new England was to get a pick to move up. Is there a REALISTIC trade you'd make? What player do you think they'd consider it for

 

[Kenny Powers]

I wouldn't. This draft is loaded with every position except OT and QB. As long as you don't have your heart set on one of those two you are going to get a really good player. Garrett is in a different league altogether, but it would take too much to get from 8 to 1.

Folks are stupid.

The Panthers did not get an extra pick from New England, they only moved up eight spots from the top of the third to the bottom of the second.

I really hope we do NOT trade up to get the player we won't use properly.

The draft is too deep, and it's a Godsend we have the picks we do in the top 100, so let's get some good players.

Wouldn't hate he move of moving up from 40 to get McCaffrey.

Love the player, but not sure I love him in Carolina with Shula. He covers a lot of what we need though.

In this draft however, it makes more sense in my opinion to trade back a little and acquire extra picks. We need a lot of players still. I know everyone is excited about the reunion, but the truth is, we haven't upgraded much at all and we're not a very good team.

I get that, I guess I misspoke. Talking g heads were implying the Panthers might want to trade up either back into the 1st? Or from 8 up. Who knows

 

[Black&Black]

I really think we just wanted to get rid of Kony. Gettleman isn't that much of a chess player.

 

[Black&Black]

I expect Fattycakes to trade up because that's what he does when he has extra picks, but I don't think the Ealy trade was part of some five dimensional chess game he's playing over everybody's head. It was just him getting something for a wasted pick.
