I think this is what will happen. He will not sign a upper tier F.A. (to some Huddlers dismay). The signing of Oher(and now possibly Ginn), shows the path he is taking. He will build this team through the draft and fill the rest out with the best 'dollar wise investments' on the market. Don't think he will bring in older vets like last year. He will pick a few guys who still have tread left on the tires and want to play for a fair price. Get ready for the draft.....that's where this team will be build from, not free agency.

I'm just fine with steering clear of the top flight FAs.  They almost always get overpaid.  Guys like Oher, Ginn, and potentially Derrick Morgan?  Those are guys who can help you fill out a roster and still leave you with the cash to make sure you can lock up your core players.  I still think that when the dust starts to settle we'll see a #2 WR signed.  I think that'll happen after the initial rush though.

But what happens when our luck runs out and our rookies actually play like rookies and some even turn out to be busts? That's why we need to sign notable FAs

 

Luck? Try telling Nippleshorts to his face that his draft picks have been luck and see what happens.

Let's sign all the WRs and Oline!!!! Then we can let Cam and Luke and Star and Dwan and Kelvin and Bene and Norman walk cause we can sign EVERY PROVEN FA!!!!

Everyone calm down. We are on the fringe. We don't need to spend all our cap until after we lock up our core players. And if we can't possibly lock up all of our core players then we have a good problem and shouldn't need to sign a ton of FA. Calm down and breathe. The OP is right and that's honestly a good thing.

don't forget he drafted Kugbila and Kenjon in a draft where we only had 5 picks.  Still, I'm glad he's picking for us.

 

I still say that was because he had only been here for 3 months before the draft happened. Kinda handicapped by a scouting dept. that didn't know what the new GM was interested in and was without the old GM who was fired 5 weeks into the season.

 

Hitting on 3 of the 5 picks is a good year for GMs that have been on the same team for 10 years.

      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.
