Agreed. Meyer coming in and not making any difference, and possibly making things worse, was predictable.This is a really nice deal for the Panthers.
Henderson was the 9th overall pick just last season.
Carolina adds him for an average TE and an exchange of picks (probable late #3 for a probable early #5) that effectively represents a drop of about forty spots in the Draft.
I am not impressed by a new coach / decision-maker (Urban Meyer here) who quickly moves-on from talent just because he did not bring-in that player.
He got banned for something. How do you know it is just pot?How? They don’t test for THC anymore and even if he popped with it, there are no fines or penalties now.
They would be stupid to get rid of him. What would be their motivation to trade him.I posted this in the MNF thread... thought I would add it here. You know Snead & McVay will go get any position they feel can put them over the top in a season where they know they have the team.
If the Eagles are 1-5 or something like that at the trade deadline, I would inquire about Fletcher Cox.
Restructure a deal or two to make it happen, would only be for a little over half his salary but with him & Donald, they would make it impossible for opposing offenses to control the line of scrimmage.

Update: his base salary is only 1M this yr and next yr it's also 1M with a 1M roster bonus. They did restructure him with a large bonus so they take a big cap hit. So would make him more expensive from a trade value perspective.

Right now Cox is probably playing too many snaps without enough help. In a rotational role & with renewed excitement, he would be a monster.
Maybe a 3rd and a back up DB gets it done to unload his contract (they desperately need a safety). Then maybe you flip him during the offseason or give him a new more affordable deal.
Yeah, they restructured him so they would take a big cap hit. So it would be a no go.They would be stupid to get rid of him. What would be their motivation to trade him.
Wouldn’t they need a Dlinemen in return to fill his spot? A pick won’t get it done. Could they possibly trade a pick and Gaines or Ashawn?I posted this in the MNF thread... thought I would add it here.

if they start a rebuild, but they’d likely want a higher pick than the Rams could provideThey would be stupid to get rid of him. What would be their motivation to trade him.
His salary in 2022 is 16 mill + 3 mill in roster bonuses & Philly would take a 25 mill dead cap hitI posted this in the MNF thread... thought I would add it here. You know Snead & McVay will go get any position they feel can put them over the top in a season where they know they have the team.
