Will the fanbase implode if no big moves are made?

Throwing this out for discussion on the eve of F.A. If the Panthers do not sign any upper tier players (such as T.Smith etc.), and rely on lower level signings and the draft....would you be alright with this gameplan?

Yes, I will be very upset. We havent signed a notable FA in years, its time we drop some cash and make a move. Yes FAs can be busts but so can draft picks, atleast with FAs you are getting guys that have proven they can play at a high level in this league. Torrey Smith and KB could solidify our no 1/no 2 WR poaition for years seeing as how T Smith is only 26 and still has a ton of years left.

For those that say "but we dropped big money in the past on FAs and it ended badly." Well I can also make the argument that literally only one player remains on the active roster from the 2011 draft, so I guess that means we should just stop drafting players as well since we got burned in the draft before?

The fanbase always implodes when no big moves are made. No reason to think this year will be any different.

 

gettleman outright said that it would take about three years to get things straightened out when he got here.  i have to admit when i first heard that i didn't expect it to mean back to back division titles so i'm having a hard time getting pissed at moves/non-moves.

Can hear it now:

 

"2015 is slipping away!! F@ck!!"

 

"No Suh?! Guess Gettleman and Richardson don't give 2 sh!ts about winning"

 

"0-16 staring us in the face!!"

 

"None of you care that we're losing in free agency!!"

 

"All he needs is a new team and a bigger contract and then he'll be much healthier"

 

"Guess Gettleman meant we'd be diving in the Wal-Mart dumpster instead of the Dollar Tree dumpster"

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
