Voth's sources: Panthers have no intentions of signing second wave free agents

"How We Misread Dave Gettleman’s “Dollar Store” Comment ... Gettleman didn’t say he was staying out of the dollar store

...

According to league sources with knowledge of the teams’ plans, the Panthers accomplished much of what they wanted before free agency kicked off Tuesday afternoon. They currently have no intentions to sign second wave unrestricted free agents, so, sources say, potential targets like Cecil Shorts , or Derrick Morgan aren’t options. ... It may not be the kind of shopping many hoped for, and there’s still work to be done, but the Panthers got what they wanted.

...

But there’s no question there are still holes on the roster. Ted Ginn ticks off the speedy wideout and returner boxes, but the Panthers are still without a No. 2 receiver. Michael Oher could fit in...but they still need at least one tackle who could be the future on the left side. Each of those worries could be taken care of in a draft loaded at both positions, but that still leaves needs at cornerback, defensive end, safety and running back. That’s not much of an improvement from the end of last season"

So much for filling needs in free agency to allow for BPA in the draft. If we're done trying to sign contributors and are just filling out the bottom of the roster, Gettleman must he planning on absolutely nailing the draft.

What other true needs do we have? By resigning our players, we've filled all the departing needs and we've filled ot/pr.

This is good news in my opinion. Not interested in crabtree, nicks, Morgan, j long, etc etc.. No need to waste millions on these guys when you can find a younger comparable player just walking the streets. Fans are going to start paying attention to these late round picks and and udfas.

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
