To dovetail off of J.I's thread. Even after the F.A period is over and the draft, cuts are coming in droves. D.G loves to pick through the aftermath and find 'gems' at a excellent price. The best deals that will help this team are coming in a few months. Free agency is highly overrated.It puts many teams in a money hole that is hard to justify in most cases.

Sorry for the heading typos..Android thumb

Mods please correct if so inclined.

 People go through "buyer envy" when their neighbors get new cars.  They don't realize the neighbors are going through "buyers' remorse" because they overspent, have 5-years of payments ahead, etc. 

 

  • We are much better on special teams right now.
  • We have upgraded on offense at LT, a position that is hard to fill (and Oher is phase 1 of a process).
  • We are going to use the draft to find a cheap, shiny #2 WR instead of an overpriced, used one.

 

Even if we do nothing more, this team is the best in the South, one of the best in the NFC.  Spending spree?  not needed.

Doubt D.G would make that mistake again. His hand was forced last year due to lack of funds. He had to let guys walk and had little choice. He will be much more selective this time. He already signed the core guys that where free agents. He did a good job this time around.

I just don't understand why we wouldn't go after one of the many proven WRs out there to complement Benjamin. I understand not going after one of the elite guys, but guys like Bowe and Johnson are proven and won't be that expensive.

Is there a team in the NFL that is spending as little as we are at WR?

What WR names are you thinking of?

Good Job?? lmao!!! Like signing a track star who has hardly played ANY football in his life? Or maybe a guy who has a movie about him? Great so he has a fugging movie about him. So What!! Should have been called " The Blind in one eye and can't see out the Oher Side"

      Time to Sign David Njoku

      Great point.    I would lke to add that there is another QB on the roster who was terrible over the middle--Kenny Pickett.

      I don't think this is the year for Carolina, unfortunately.  I think they will have to make a decision on the QB position-all we know is that Bryce has year 5, but a long term deal has not been signed--yet--and they would be smart to take a "wait and see" approach.  I have not kept up, and I see a path to upside for Bryce, but I do not think we have aggressively pursued a QB when our QB was mediocre to worse than mediocre.  yes, his numbers are improving--but he has adapted by eliminating what he does poorly and not improving on what he does poorly.  Just my take and I have no data to support this view.   Basically, we go as Bryce goes, so the approach is not to bring in a QB to have him compete until we find one, but it is to make Bryce as good as he can be--is that good enough? Season ticket holders buy the hope of winning rings, not winning 8 games. Last year, Bryce had a resurgence.  Take away TMac and Rico Dowdle.  How good was he?  I still have hope.  Not a hater of plan A, but a hater because we have no plan B.

      Yeah man, I've been here for a very very long time. Couldn't even begin to tell you what year. Maybe 2004 or 5? I've never really been super active, just enjoy reading everyone's opinions and discussions. I'll chime in from time to time. I have had a few different accounts over the years. It's always been a fun place for me to check in on my favorite team. Hopefully we can keep the place running for a long while still. I also would like to recommend bringing back the Lovely Ladies page!
