The Seattle Seahawks (7-5) welcome the Carolina Panthers (4-8) to town for the first time since 2016. It’s been a rough year for Carolina, who fired head coach Matt Rhule, waived Week 1 starting quarterback Baker Mayfield, and traded away franchise running back Christian McCaffrey. And yet, not everything about the Panthers is terrible!
For the sake of this post just pretend the salary cap isn’t real and just envision taking one player from another team and putting them in a Seahawks uniform.
The obvious answer here is Brian Burns. Seattle’s pass rush is not particularly good and hasn’t been a net positive for this group in years.
