Panthers Sign Michael Oher

[KendrickPanther]

if one is BPA when we pick, you can rest comfortably knowing Getts will get him.

 

Gettleman has drafted for need in his first 2 seasons and people still perpetuate BPA.

There were better players available than Star and Kelvin?

David Newton, ESPN:

"Even if the Panthers signed a player such as Oher, they still would be in the market for a tackle with the No. 25 pick of the draft."

I wouldn't even be against an OT in the first two rounds if we don't get another in FA (which I believe we will).

"The New York Giants should not sign Oher, despite needing help on the offensive line. Oher was drafted by the Baltimore Ravens in 2009. Oher was expected to be the Ravens’ next great left tackle, but instead found a permanent home as a right tackle. Many Ravens fans lost patience with Oher by his second season. ... The Ravens put little effort in keeping Oher last offseason. They opted to go with second year player, Ricky Wagner instead. Wagner was an instant upgrade at the right tackle position. ... Oher should simply not be an option for the Giants. ... The Giants should look elsewhere"

Steve Reed is reporting Oher's deal is 2-years and $8.25 million.

I'd be okay with that.

No way.....

[davos]

I'd be okay with that.

 

I hope that 4.125 million/year isn't all guaranteed.

I trust Gettleman and Co.'s opinion more than some schmuck on the internet. They get paid the big bucks.

I doubt much of it is.

Hope he pans out. If so, we will finally have a complete, solid line for the first time in Cam's career.
