Lloyd is best at the will LB. We need a Mike. iMO

Just watch some Kaitlyn Jenner soft porn.

We are going to have to cut now, and Tremble has a cap of $6m. I think they like Tremble, as do I, but it is not my call.

I too am an edge whore. I am also a tight end whore, but I digress... We have some work to do. Interesting stuff about WR and CB. I know they just signed some bottom of the roster CBs--and we forget about UDFA Thornton from last year (injury), but we are thin. Jones? He is a veteran who is 27. He is decent depth, and cutting him creates $5.3m in dead cap and saves about $4.7m in cap room. You might be right, but I would not cut him. Cutting Robinson (done already?) saves about $10.5m. Tremble saves $6m. I would extend Ickey. team friendly, but you could spread out the hit. If he recovers, the Panthers get a deal. If he does not, he gets a deal and the panthers lose about $5-10m. Moehrig, Brown, Horn, Lewis--can be reworked if necessary--I dunno. Not as good at cap management as some.

TEA LEAVES: Lloyd, Elliss, and Chenal still available--if we sign one of them, OT will be the pick in the first round. I think we could sign an ILB in the second round as well, but DT, S, TE, and WR are in play. (Watch the TE from Vandy--I see him here--in my vision--behind the giant spiders and robots.) I see a C in round 3 or 4.

I see no way we draft BPA when we have no LT--if we sign Nijman, maybe--but we cant go 17 games with him. I see no options. Freeling, Proctor, Lomu. For some reason, I see us taking Proctor if Freeling is gone. I'd rather have Lomu. In this post, I have mentioned the name of our first round pick. Unless some weird shite happens.

I still think we might draft one for the emergency QB

Yes, but now when Bryce starts sucking, we can do this:

Tua Pennix is Latin for "Two Pen...." Nah. too easy.

Another thing--when they show highlights, is there a rule that says 25% of them are against the Panthers?

been at work--gotta catch up. Tua to Atlanta because both QBs are lefties? Makes some sense if you have a blindside RT....Has this been discussed?

2025?

that makes sense--a bit older/

Former Dolphins and Eagles linebacker Jaelan Phillips has agreed to a four-year, $120 million deal with the Carolina Panthers that includes $80 million in guarantees, according to ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter. The Eagles acquired Phillips from Miami at the November trade deadline for a 2026 third-round draft pick. Phillips called landing in Philadelphia "literally the greatest thing that has happened to me in my whole life, probably," noting how welcoming everyone was and how much he liked the environment. He proved to be a fit both in the locker room and in defensive coordinator Vic Fangio's scheme, having played under Fangio earlier in Miami. Phillips appeared in eight regular-season games and finished with two sacks, seven quarterback hits, a forced fumble and four passes defended, helping to solidify one of the top defenses in the NFL in 2025. A first-round pick out of Miami in 2021, Phillips has dealt with his share of significant injuries, including a torn Achilles in 2023 and a partially torn ACL in 2024. He played in all 17 games this past season, however -- marking the first time he had done so since 2022. Phillips, 26, has 28 career sacks and 68 quarterback hits in 63 games. ESPN's Tim McManus contributed to this report.

Wharton sucked last year because we had no effective edge for most of the year. Put someone like this on his side, Wharton becomes much better. I also expect the focus on ILB to be (pass rusher, coverage guy) we should add 2. If that happens, we could improve the pass rush considerably, if only in theory at this point.
