At about 1:20 in the video a reporter asks Big Al if he would be thinking about talking to other players like Kemba talked to him last year and recruited him to come to Charlotte. Big Al's response was classic- "Who's said I haven't (already)!"

 

He continues to say that even last year guy would contact him about playing in Charlotte. They wanted confirmation about all the great stuff they had been hearing about coach Clifford. He said he has had a lot of phone calls dating back to the last 2 months of the season up until now.

I just think that is great. I hope Al can bring in someone with a little encouragement. Who do you think he has been talking to? Maybe someone on his old teams- Utah or Minnesota? Hayward maybe?

PG: Kemba Walker / Elfrid Payton

SG : Gordon Hayward / Gerald Henderson / Gary Neal

SF: Paul Pierce / Michael Kidd-Gilchrist / Jeff Taylor

PF: Aaron Gordon / Cody Zeller

C: Al Jefferson / Greg Stiemsma / Bismack Biyombo

I don't think Payton is lasting til 24, his stock has picked up big time. Some people are talking him up as a top 14 pick.

I swear some of y'all have never heard of Hayward until this offseason.

 

I swear some of ya'll read an article that hypes up a player and then decide that you're all of a sudden some expert on that player and swear they're the type of FA that we should throw a max contract to.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By Icege · Posted

      WR: Nico, Woods, Tank (R) TE: Schultz OL: Tunsil/Howard/Deiter/Mason/Fant vs. WR: Chark, Thielen, Mingo (R) TE: Hurst OL: Icky/Zavala (R)/Bozeman/Jensen (R)/Moton   Panthers' had the better OL before losing BC week 1 and AC week 4 which is kind of ironic considering how in the following year DB went down in W1 and Shaq in W4 resulting in the defense going all to Hell. CJ has done amazing in Houston, but he also wasn't asked to carry Zavala, Jensen, Mingo, Hurst, and Chark as a rookie.

      Past 5 seasons, IMO CJ Stroud and Joe Burrow are the 2 best young QBs that have emerged in the league in that window.  They also didn’t need vets to be their primary pass catchers.  They helped fellow youngsters be great at WR.   almost all the other young QBs have been paired up with vets in their top options….and haven’t been as promising.  so it isn’t Madden.  But the league hasn’t played out as you suggest it does.   Good QBs make others around them better.

      In 2023 their roster wasn’t stacked. They nailed the poo out of the 2023 draft and since they knew Davis Mills wasn’t the guy, they tanked properly to get pick 2. They also took Cleveland’s ridiculous offer for Watson unlike us with Burns. Houston received enough draft capital to jump up to 3 while picking up the right guys in Anderson and Stroud. The Texans were not stacked or better than us in 2023. They had 11 total wins from 2020 to 2022. They didn’t have a terrible front office so they made sure they got their QB of the future while tanking well and getting more draft picks. They are a textbook study of what we should have done in 2022/2023 offseason even though people in here still think tanking is a bad word and our culture would be bad if we were the Texans. We literally had the chance to be the Texans right now and fuged it up.
