This random website with no sources or much credibility says Panthers are heavy player for Randall Cobb


Growl

Like I said, the guy doesn't say "anonymous sources" or anything, Pretty much just insinuates he has some bronies in the know or something. So yeah. It's crap.

Now it's being reported that Dave Gettleman has reached out to Drew Rosenhaus to inquire about Randall Cobb's asking price. Many close to the situation believe that Gettleman has made Cobb his top priorty in free agency which will begin in less than two weeks.

Of course Gettleman will ask. It would be ridiculous for him to do anything more than kick the tires though.

If what he "reported" were actually true, the Panthers would get hit for tampering. Something tells me the kid writing this blog doesn't know enough about football to realize that.

Seems pretty obvious he's making up stories to get attention. Heck, his story about a supposed trade of Derek Anderson isn't even fully written. It cuts off and turns into a complaint about the admins on the site :wacko:

I'm not naive enough to believe that every team in the league isn't "tampering" around the clock this time of year, but I think we can agree that this guy isn't exactly a savant.

Tampering never happens. Just ask any team's GM :lol:

I think part of the reason the NFL changed when and how free agency starts is because it was getting difficult to explain how guys had signed contracts ready for approval five minutes after midnight.

(but nobody was tampering)

    • I mean, I hear what y'all are saying, but Derrick could have been positive without being negative.  He essentially accused people of not seeing Bryce's improvement because of their desire to not be wrong. He could've kept it about Bryce and the team. For example, he could've said: "Bryce has made strides, and we believe in him. This coming season, his continued improvement will turn a lot of people into believers."  That would've been supportive of his teammate and sent a message to the doubters. That being said, his tact almost summoned and left the door ajar for more skepticism. That's my take anyway. Bryce has improved from the bottom to perhaps skirting the line between the bottom third and mid-third at best...after three seasons. We've all seen it. Yay! In my mind, Bryce has still got a long way to go and a short time to get there, but my expectations are top five--at least top 10--always! Yes, I am a fan, so there's that, but I don't believe it's unreasonable to expect excellence. Hopefully the Panthers FO has the same mindset (and that doesn't even necessarily have anything to do with what we gave up to acquire him). That is the lens I'm looking through. Derrick Brown has his homer glasses on. He just needs to be more diplomatic and thoughtful with his words in my opinion, but I get it that he's a good teammate.
    • I have no doubt the Canes will come out like gangbusters, huge bounce back from game one - my only concern is Freddie, if he lets in a couple of softies and Dobes stays hot we could be in trouble.
