In hindsight, should we have traded for Diontae Johnson?

DJ is $10M on the books for the Panthers.

 

He was traded to Carolina (CAR) from Pittsburgh (PIT) with 2024 7th round pick (#240) for Donte Jackson and 2024 6th round pick (#178). Now, Donte may have had some value for the Stillers but he was likely going to be cut in Carolina, and he signed a restructured $6M deal with them after the trade, so he didn't have a TON of value.

 

So maybe without Jackson to dangle, could we have gotten him for a 4th or a 5th and 6th?

 

In hindsight, is that a move you wished we pulled the trigger on, knowing what we know about Diggs now?

I was a firm no when you asked before. I'm still a no. But a softer one. I just am not a big Diontae Johnson guy and never have been. Sloppy route runner with bad hands and a questionable attitude.

The late round picks clearly had zero value based on the trades being made.

 

I think it would’ve been a steal
