Well, that's a first and a novel idea.  Here is an organization not stuck in a box in regards to doing business.  I wonder if it will have any effect.  I would think that a phone call or two (or three) to guys that you are genuinely interested in will do the trick. I know that we got Lester on the phone pretty quickly. Who knows though?

 

That damned Pete Carroll, John Schneider and Paul Allen (in a good way)!

If I'm an undrafted WR, especially with the bad light the media has given our situation (rightful or not), I'm praying Carolina calls to give me a shot this year. Would love to find a couple guys for depth/potential starters like we did last season via UDFA.

I do love the Seahawks organizational moves since Holmgren left them in a talent deficit while he was there and Cleveland...why is that guy in talent evaluation again?

Outta the box and against the grain" With A Plan" is a culture that works.

Other organizations that I feel have strong cultues I'd love

Patriots: Hate or love the Pats, Belechick goes after guys that he can coach..not drafting for an accumulation of talent for talents sake. Veteran presence make even the most disruptive players adhere to the Patriot way... In before spygate.

Ravens: Strong family structue, great talent evaluator in Ozzie Newsome. Aggressive in getting value free agents to compliment core players.

A testament is any Free Agent who visits them usually falls in love and signs; Jacoby Jones being on a plane to visit the Giants this offseason stopped the cab and took the offer to stay with a team he loves playing for. In before Murderer safe house.

Broncos: Peyton Manning creates his own culture whereever he goes but Denver has quickly become either a powerhouse or the Next "Dream Team" Eagles with all the aggressive First Tier free agents to give Manning weapons. In Before he he is the second best Manning.

Cultures that suck

Cleveland: no plan, quick trigger firing GM's and coaches with one of the least talented rosters in the league. ownership highly questionable. In before But History!

Cowboys: Jerry Jones hires Parcells as his own personal job shadowing apprenticeship. Fires the best thing in his org and has proceeded to get even Cowboy fans questioning the organization only very recently. And Tony Romo. In Before 6 rings or whatever.

Redskins: another overbearing owner. Joke. In before get Government outta sports names.

Saints: draft and sign douches...hope for the best...the downhill spiral begins. In before Harper is a Panther now!!

So what exactly is the new Panther culture? Overpay then cut, restructure and not pay anyone? We shall see it is early in the gettles era. Nothing keeps free agents away like cutting highly visible vets and being cheap. in before Laptop.

      The bottom line is we saw long stretches this season where T-Mac wasn't even targeted.  He had games where he went an entire half without seeing a pass thrown his way, and it lead to a bunch of games with 5 or less targets.  If he's healthy and we're not up a stupid amount and only running the ball, I can't see him having more than a game or two next year with 5 or less targets. We were also only 22nd this year in pass attempts, and that was with a rookie #1 and no legitimate 2nd option for half the season.  And even then, we were only 46 pass attempts above 31st place. If we go into next season with T-Mac improved in his 2nd season and a healthy Coker for 17 games, there is absolutely no reason for us to not throw it more.  That right away increases both of their target totals without sacrificing any targets from each other or other players, add in them taking targets from the TEs and RBs on top of that, and your argument just doesn't hold water anymore. You can't look at targets/yards in a vacuum and think next year Coker just takes some from T-Mac.  You have to look at the team as a whole and our situations this year and then project what will happen next year. If he's healthy for 17 games, I'd bet my life savings that T-Mac sees increases across the board, targets/catches/yards/TDs.   Just as Coker will also see career highs in all categories, it's not one vs the other, it's shifting offensive strategy given our personnel, which next year will be much better for our passing game (QB issues aside).

      C'mon now.... First, you can't switch up your argument once someone points out a major flaw in your point. You're saying we shouldn't expect a big increase in targets/yards for T-Mac, but then shift to talking about averages with Chase when I point out the significant leap he took there once you factor in his missing games.  He saw an increase in targets in 5 less games, averages aside, he saw a significant increase in targets in his 2nd season, what he then did with those targets is actually irrelevant in this discussion. Puka seeing no increase is pointless, as he saw such an absurd amount of targets for a rookie, it's near impossible to see an increase. But the real issue in this post is that you think I'm proving your point by showing how Waddle had to share targets with Hill. Tyreek Hill was a 1st team All Pro who was 2nd in the NFL in yards that season. If you think Jaylen Waddle sharing targets with a 1st team All Pro and a future HOFer is even remotely in the same category as T-Mac needing to share targets with Coker... then you are certifiably insane, lol. If anything, you could make the argument that Coker is to Waddle as T-Mac is to Hill in that discussion (which would then lead to a serious increase in targets/yards for T-Mac).  But even that is insane, as neither T-Mac or Coker will be as good as Hill and Waddle respectively that season.  I love both of their potential, but c'mon now, T-Mac isn't getting 119 catches for 1,700 yards and Coker isn't getting 117 for 1,350 next season.
