Excellent signing. Guy can play any position on the line.

The good thing about Morgan is he was on the Panthers when the team was somewhat well run. I don't think it can be understated how god awful Scott Fitterer was. I don't know if he was too heavily influenced by Tepper or if he was just awful at his job. Morgan at the very least was a Panthers player, was around when the team had success which probably helps just his general attitude towards building the team.

What is funny about signing Moehrig is that the Panthers could have DRAFTED him if Scott Fitterer wasn't a moron. In the 2021 draft, the Panthers had the 39th overall pick. They traded down, twice, in the second round, eventually drafting WR Terrace Marshall Jr 59th overall. Moehrig was drafted 43rd overall. The Panthers also passed on OT Tevin Jenkins who was picked by the Bears in the 39th overall spot, and passed on Creed Humphrey who was drafted 63rd overall. Good teams draft well. The Panthers have been one of the worst drafting teams since 2021 and it's not even close.

Morgan appears better than Scott Fitterer but that’s not saying anything at all, Fitterer is one of the worst GMs in NFL history.

Is that after Tuttle’s paycut?

I actually think the Panthers might end up drafting a LB or WR. It makes them less desperate to get DL help. CB is still on the table though, but I'd hate it at 8 overall.

If the defense improves with similar results on offense from 2024, this is a 8-9 win team. If Bryce takes another step forward it’s a playoff team. That’s IF the defense improves. They’ve made a huge investment in defense so here’s hoping it works out.

Excellent. This is the best signing of the day.

What the Pats paid for Milton is two or three mid level defensive players. Makes more of a difference than 1 player. Milton isn't even as good as KK Short.

He went to NE after all that, lovely. Delete thread.

wtf this is chaos

He signed, he's not signed, which is it? This is a lot of money for a DT when you already have Derrick Brown. But this dude is a problem in the pass rush, ass cheeks in the run game though. Panthers better load up on LBs that can stop the run or the defense will be a sieve yet again.

No thanks on that butthole contract. DK is also kind of a hothead

Winning free agency is what garbage teams do. The best teams are quiet in free agency and draft well.

The panthers need to focus on defense. I’ll say it again, the Panthers need to focus on defense.

I’m ready for the Mahomes is a pedo scandal

This garbage franchise hasn’t drafted a center since 2007

I can’t see him going anywhere but the 49ers

Mason Graham would be a lot like Star Lotulelei falling to the Panthers who at one point was mocked #1 overall and fell to #14, but I don't see it happening. Panthers might honestly want to trade down unless they fall in love with an offensive prospect.

Signing Frankie Luvu was probably the only thing I can think of.

For the right price, not at the sacrifice of other positions on defense, this is a good signing. Breaking the bank for him would just be similar to what the Panthers did signing lower tier guys like Shy Tuttle to bad deals and messing up the cap. Fitterer did such a bad job on this roster I’m surprised he still has a job in the NFL.

I imagine that if the Panthers don’t want him back he can’t play at a high level anymore. Too many injuries.

The amount of quality C the panthers have passed on in the draft the past 5 years makes me want to vomit. The Panthers have been awful at drafting since Tepper took over.

The “Joe Person is a tool” trope is pretty worn out. I think he has had on again off again sources with the team over the years. Occasionally he coughs up a good article but sometimes he’s very lazy. The Panthers have by and large been poorly covered. I think it’s time for some fresh voices. That said the conversation about keeping Moton at that cap number is crazy. He’s a good player but no way he’s worth $31m. That’s 3 starters on defense. They’ll be drafting a tackle somewhere in the draft I guarantee it. Wouldn’t even be a bad idea in the first round if they traded down.
