The biggest issue with Tepper shopping for new GMs and HCs is that we are stuck shopping in the garbage bin and I think he found that out in the last go round. Anyone with other options simply didn't want to consider the Panthers until other options were exhausted. And I don't think simply outbidding the other owners is an option. Pretty sure Dave got a stern talking to after landing Rhule simply by offering a contract that the Giants weren't willing to touch.

Are you really going to pretend that SCar's overall pool of talent vs. Clemson's is even a debate during the Panthers' existence? I mean, I'm a huge UNC fan but I'm not going to humiliate myself trying to make that argument.

If Bryce flops it's 100% gonna be Sellers in '26. LOL But you're right, this organizations fascination with SCar prospects and utter disregard for Clemson prospects is just bizarre.

Uh oh. @CRA gonna crash out. LOL

You can rollover unused cap. How much is a mid-round pick really worth in cap space? I wouldn't want to eat much.

I'd rather have Renfrow as insurance. My concern isn't Coker, it's XL. If XL doesn't step up, I'd put Coker in that role and Renfrow in the slot and keep it moving.

I hope he pans out I just didn't see anything out of him during preseason and it seemed like all the talk about him looking good on camp pretty much evaporated once the pads went on.

Coker for sure. I see him sliding into AT's role. I didn't see much out of Horn and would've rather kept Renfrow.

Well, now the Renfrow release makes no sense. Even if the hammy was lingering just put him on PUP while he rests up.

You're right about the butterfly effect but wrong about the source. David Tepper is the butterfly's wings. Hiring Matt Rhule was a downstream effect

Post-cut pickups are largely about improving the bottom of your roster.

Have you seen our backup QBs?

Just sink or swim. Don't be middling. Give us the answer one way or the other, don't leave it in gray area.

I wonder if the hammy is still an issue? He immediately reached for it after that hospital ball in the final PS game. I'd still rather have Renfrow on PUP vs. Moore active.

Not Panthers games. We generally get our asses kicked.

Just get the deal done. We've teased it so much that the Thielen's expect it. Now we run the risk of our veteran WR locker room presence becoming disgruntled. Just take what we can get, make him happy, and get future assets while freeing up snaps for guys who will be here beyond this season.

All the preseason depth charts are unofficial. Basically just some intern putting something together with the goal of just making sure everyone on the roster is included.

Slim to none I'd imagine. Zero if we're still in serious talks with the Vikings about Thielen.

Wasn't he like a 5th rounder? A Kyle Allen level QB for a 5th is a decent success

Nah, he's not that dumb. Basically Kerry Collins without the cannon arm.

He couldn't learn the playbook. That's why they brought in Baker and now they're cutting him.

Kyle Trask sucks. He was a good college QB because he was very accurate in the short to mid-range but he had no arm and was a total pocket statue. Then when he got to the NFL it was quickly shown that he just wasn't smart enough to grasp and NFL playbook.

Geno is gonna be open ass this year. Wait and watch.

Looked good on camp against the Eagles D? fug it, sign him. Gotta be better than our backups.

Now the Sanders stans have cooked up a conspiracy that the Browns conspired to make Shedeur look bad in the final preseason game. These people are wild. LOL Like nah fam, that's just Shedeur Sanders against a non-Panthers backup defense.
