We have a fresh start. Add some weapons and some protection for 9 and let’s see how it goes.

Similar to the Saints investing in interior OL to help Brees.

I have been asking for this since before the trade deadline last year.

Yes, but played like a madman for the last 2 years and stayed healthy.

This crossed my mind because of the Canales connection, but I do not think the timing is right even if Dave wanted to do it.

If you only watched the first Falcons game, you would agree. The problem was the other 16 games.

Maybe Wilkes can make another social media post about how lucky he is.

Maybe we could hire him as DB coach or assistant ST coach.

He sure seems to be a lot healthier these days. Besides that, whatever. He doesn't play for this franchise any longer.

Hard to say no when a SB QB was the LAST pick in the draft.

Was that after they drafted the long snapper in the 6th?

I don’t think either side looked good coming out of it.

So Joe Person reported it. I was wondering where the news came from. Good news!

That’s fair. It’ll also be interesting to see how Johnson does as HC IF he ever takes that step. We can all name some GREAT coordinators who never successfully made that next step.

Call it whatever we want. Maybe, “Thank God for unanswered prayers.” If some of the scuttlebutt is true, he is not good HEAD coach material.

Good, the feeling is mutual.

I think something like that will be on the table. And the first pick of the second round is always a popular pick.

Some people are not meant to be head coaches. He just may be one of them. Whether Canales works out or not, I am glad the Panthers dodged a bullet with Johnson.

Yeah, not sure this meant what people think it meant, but I would love to have TD around in whatever capacity possible.

Yeah, I could see a tag and trade working out for Higgins. He would be “the man” here. Could also see Evans following Canales. Bucs players were really disappointed to lose him. Panthers will probably have to at least slightly overpay free agents. Would still need to add a WR in the draft. Canales is used to working with WRs who get open. That room is going to look much different in ‘24.

Would love to have him on our side for a change.

Not as worried about W-L record next year as I am about seeing hope for the future, including seeing Canales get the best out of #9 and our offense as a whole.

Not many on the roster, at least not last year. We had many more players playing like dawgs under Wilkes. Perhaps a coach who connects with players and motivates can bring that out in them.

Free agents and draft picks are the best way to build the WR corps. We don’t need to trade draft picks unless it’s a great deal for us. A trade involving Burns might be something to consider if it gets a top shelf WR.
