i thought about that earlier this season at the trade deadline when he was rumored to be on the block..

 

i came to the conclusion that Z-Bo, while very effective, is getting long in the tooth and would also clog the paint where both he and Al operate. And he darn well isn't worth the long term money that Fansided article throws out at him. And there's no way he is opting our of his current deal.

Personally I would pass.... Like him as a player but just dont think the fit is all that good. Hurts more on defense with 2 bigs that struggle with athletic 4's and would struggle in pick and roll defense. Would be another good scoring punch and great rebounder. Not to mention Z-bo brings intensity and a strong desire to win. 

 

Wouldn't be my first pick but if it happened I could get on board.

It seems like pure speculation, but I'd definitely give Z-Bo a ring if he gets cut.

 

I actually brought up a Z-Bo-Big Al possible front court four or five months ago.

 

I like Z-Bo because like McBob he can still stretch the floor and actually prefers to hang out around the 16-18 foot range, but signing Z-Bo would also allow Kemba to finally be the point guard. I like McBob but I think his talents would be much better suited on the second unit (that is if he opts-in).

      Gronk is the best TE of all time, but he also played with Brady. Clarke was great, but had Peyton and in an era TE's didn't make crazy money. Kittle is great, but the two times he's made the SB, he was still on his rookie contract for one, and the other the 49ers had Purdy on a cheap rookie deal which help them build the rest of the roster. So again, it's not about not wanting an elite TE, of course it would be nice.  But realistically, in today's NFL, unless that elite TE with a top end TE salary is on a team with a GOAT level QB and/or other serious cap savings (i.e. key players on rookie deals), then I think it's not a good use of cap space.

      This place was the poo pre tepper with tons of hilarious posters like phillyB. Joined in the 2000s during the 07 season and have been here bitching about this team since. but yeah its sadly been dying a slow death, every time I come to this site I am surprised its still up. I think the 2015 season was the absolute peak, the Panthers and this board especially just haven't "felt" the same since then. Igo should really sell the board since he clearly doesn't care anymore. Also, Reddit blows and the Bryce defenders on there need Jesus.

      Guessing the price is too rich here given the injury history.  2024 was brutal and production dropped off in 2025 with a few more injuries (albeit rough qb play).    Don’t really understand the narrative that Young can’t benefit from talented upgrades on offense. Especially here with respect to a tight end. Any QB will benefit from talented receivers that threaten the top of coverage and tight ends with skills to stress zone.    The age and injury history, coupled with what he’s likely asking, just probably means we can better spend that money elsewhere.
