Panthers Trade Up for #1 -- !!!!!!-- ????? - Hobbit99 - 02-25-2020
WELL....
Now this is NEWS.!! You saw it here first..??
Panthers trade up to get Burrow or ... ??? Then trade Cam for additional picks.

Never thought I would see this in print.....this early.!!

After thinking about this, I've come to the conclusion that THIS possibility, while being remote, could make a lot of sense. Burrow has already indicated that he would prefer to play somewhere other than Cincinnati. And pairing him up with his former coach, Joe Brady, NOW the Panthers Offensive guy, makes an awful lot of sense.!!

In any event, this probably won't happen. It would cost some draft capital, without a doubt. But the Panthers COULD shop Cam to recoup some picks..... And, with Tepper behind the scenes, who knows. He certainly has the moxie and the flair for the dramatic. So, could this happen..?? Absolutely.!!
Something to think about---and consider.
Burrows "comes clean" ----- says he would report to Cincinnati if they draft him. Says he won't "force" a trade. Of course, he's not saying anything about his preference.!!

So, unless there is a "Godfather" offer, it appears that Cincinnati is in the driver's seat with respect to the #1 pick. Of course, this is saying nothing about what his agent(s) are saying behind the scenes. With the right offer, anything could happen. AND, this seems to be a situation that is tailor-made for the Panthers, Tepper, and a historic Coach/Player reunion.
Interesting scenario.....

Tepper can trade any danged body he wants as long as his name is NOT Christian McCaffrey.

Yup.....
But what would you say to moving UP in the draft order to get the #1 pick...??? That's the real question..!!
For it...or agin it.??

IF the trade can improve the team without tossing the baby out with the bathwater, then I am for it.

Trade UP rumors are still floating around. Makes you wonder what the real stories are.....behind the scenes. Only reason I can see would be to get a QB that we really wanted. Can't see trading up from 7 to get a lineman or a DB....
Who knows.??? I know Rhule said he would like to coach Cam. But I also know that Cam is 30 (31..??) and is NOT what he used to be.!! I think maybe Tepper has some input here.
Hmmm.......
