honestly the year spread isn't that big a deal. it should have been broken down into percentages in age ranges. like x% are 21-26, y% are 27-32, z% are 33+

not a bad thing, imo.

anyone saying that the window is closing only needs to look at that.

(although i don't think people are actually spewing that window closing crap much anymore around here)

...but but but our franchise is going in the wrong direction!, we will have a true rebuilding year soon and with the richardsons stepping down and the open heart surgery we are truely doomed!!

[Saint J]

I think it would be more telling to look at the starters instead of the whole roster, IMO.

How long do you think the window is open..

as long as they are able to bring in and develop talent it will be open.

sounds vague but it's the truth. it certainly isn't a bad thing that we have so much youth on the team with experienced players in front of them showing them the ropes.

we have williams and stewart working together to make each other better who wil also be sharing their info with goodson (who could be a playmaker for years).

we have smitty tutoring kenny moore.

we have moose tutoring jarrett (although he may be beyond hope, we'll find out soon).

we have hoover tutoring fiammetta.

we have young TEs that are factoring more into the game plan.

gross and wharton working with the rest of the OLine not to mention having one of the best coaches at spotting and developing talent there.

on the dline we have peppers working with brown (actually a good thing). there is some youth on that dline and a very good coach that teaches them well. (that youth might hurt us this year but in the future he could have the success of magazu on the Oline)

@ linebacker we are set for a long time.

the secondary is the only real concern i have. i think we are really going to like the capt., though.

The way things go in the NFL, the window is always open.

top.5 WR

top 5RB

top 5 MLB

top5DE

top5Oline

the panthers know this team is built to win know

[BlindSite]

This is actually really good, we're set at most of our offensive line, back 7 in the secondary and in the running game, all we need for the future is a QB and there's no reason this team cannot continue to be successful. Hell the eagles have been in the hunt nearly every year for nearly a decade. It can happen.
