Panthers claim OT Jonathan Martin

[Mr. Scot]

He would fit in on the huddle that is for sure

 

 

 

Now, grab incognito and we have ourselves an OL!

 

Incognito was signed by the Bills.

Depth does not translate to quality.

[DeeJay]

Most of the huddle hates what the front office does anyway..

[Moorgan]

I'm good with it.

 

 

EDIT: But I'm not really sure how claiming off the waiver wire works. How does the contract aspect of it work?

Also, shout out to jamos for being on top of poo today.

[Pox2]

looking more and more likely that the Panthers are NOT trying to pigeon hole themselves into selecting a OT with the 1st selection.

[Mr. Scot]

I'm not a big fan, but I'd see it as an "aw hell, why not" signing.

 

Maybe he can be coached up.  If not, no major consequences.

Can he play OT... Oh wait.

Well he is automatically better than Chandler and was decent as a starter last year with Kaepernick as their QB. It may not be a rockstar pick but it puts us in a better position come draft time. He will be a better tackle than any rookie we draft and will battle Reamers for the RT position. This gives us decent depth. Also is cheaper than signing an injured Jake Long or Barksdale. Good signing.

This is a low risk high reward move. Getts!

I know you're being nice, but come on dude. You know when this signing came across your news feed you face palmed like the rest of us.

[Bartin]

How much Is his contract?

$1M, non-guaranteed. Can cut him at anytime with no cap ramifications and he will take up like $600k more cap room than a UDFA. No risk signing. No reason to dislike the pickup for me. He's not very good but he was rated higher than Bell, Chandler and Oher by PFF last year.

[RoaringRiot]

Perfect!

A 25 year old cry baby, just what this team needed

You're on a roll today.

If you are a tough guy coming in this thread to tell everyone Jonathan is a whimp and a sissy, go look in a mirror. Are you really that tough?

I don't have to be that tough, because I'm not a professional football player.

[Hotsauce]

We almost need to bring #89 back just for the off season work outs and camp just to toughen his ass up

[MichaelNewtonII]

Good pickup imo
