PFR Originals: 3/26/17 – 4/2/17

The original content and analysis produced by the PFR staff during the past week:

  • With rumors swirling that the Panthers would like to acquire the No. 2 overall pick from the 49ers, I examined what Carolina would have to sacrifice to move up to the top of Round 1. Using Chase Stuart of Football Perspective’s draft value chart, I worked out a trade that would see Carolina send the eighth selection, a second-rounder, and a fifth-rounder to San Francisco in exchange for No. 2, a fourth-rounder, and a seventh-rounder. The classic, Jimmy Johnson-devised value chart, however, would force the Panthers to ship much more to the Niners.
  • An Indoor Football League team declined to sign Greg Hardy following a fan vote, leading Zach Links to ask if an NFL club should consider inking the controversial defensive end. Hardy, still only 28 years old, is an exceptionally talented player, but no team wants to touch him after his history of domestic violence (and his lack of accountability). Thus far, PFR readers agree with devotees of the Salt Lake City Screamers — more than 80% of respondents don’t think Hardy should land a contract.
