Bears trade Austin Pettis (WR-StL) -- $954,000 (2015)
Panthers trade 2.32
I accept with this post. Tough to part with Pettis as thing sseem to be turning around for him in StL and he has a chance to put up some stats, but WR is an are where I just have a ton of depth, so I felt this made sense for me as it gave me more flexibility.

I accept. Pettis is a good young receiver who is buried on the St. Louis dept chart. He will be part of an offense that will spread the ball around and should produce some moderate receiving numbers. This is a depth move on my part, locked in for 3 years at a moderate contract. Thanks to the Bears, good deal.

Pettis has potential, it's whether or not he fulfills it. A good depth move for the Panthers. A late 2nd to early 3rd is where I valued Pettis myself, so good deal.

Would I have done this if I were Panthers? No. But even as Pettis looks like he's behind many receivers on the pecking order, he may be able to carve out a small role for himself that'll make this barely worth it. Again, I think personally it's a bad trade, but it doesn't look like a HUGE win for any team.
APPROVE (2-0)

Also, it doesn't mean much, but Pettis has been doing well in practice.
So have a lot of busts though. Just food for thought in case we look back on this and see that Bears made a big mistake.

If I can get a little help with switching the pick I'll give the third approval. (3-0).
