Adam Schefter reported today that the Carolina Panthers are trading cornerback Daryl Worley for veteran wide-receiver Torrey Smith. All initial reports suggest this was a straight trade without any accompanying cash or draft picks. Carolina certainly could use help at wide receiver and Worley hasn’t been remarkably impressive through the first two years of his career. Worley has looked like a rotational player who could one day be a serviceable starter, but Carolina was clearly looking to upgrade in the secondary this offseason regardless.
Smith, however, is in the final year of his contract with the Eagles and is slated to earn 5-million dollars.
