Hammy, i'd imagine.

It was hamstring that he was having trouble with right?

that's what i was thinking. it had been giving him problems for a good bit of the offseason.

i don't think the door is closed completely. if he gets healthy and the young guys obviously can't handle it then we will see him again. we'll probably know for sure by the bye week. we'll also know who is the most expendable on the roster by that time to make room for him.

i want what's best for the team. he had a few strikes against him.

the need is still there, i just didn't think that he was the best person for it....not that the best person is on the team.

i didn't see him overall being enough of an upgrade to warrant making a sacrifice elsewhere.

in three weeks i might feel differently. i'm willing to go with what we have right now to see unless there is a diamond that falls from the sky into our laps.

      Panthers signing WR John Metchie

      I tend to think that you're right, but fans can hope.  Metchie hasn't actually translated so far to the NFL for reasons we can point to, and others we probably cannot. This will probably be his best opportunity to stick and raise his value, obviously because of past chemistry with Young, but I don't think that fans can count on it based upon what he's done so far in the league. It would seem that he would've been given that opportunity in Houston, but they not only drafted one, but two receivers. Tells you how they valued him. Philly didn't blink when they traded him to the Jets who refused to tender him, so no one has really valued what he brings--not really. Moreover, Bryce is in the big boy leagues, now. He doesn't have time for sentimentality when it comes to security blankets. T-Mac and Coker are established.  That being said, chemistry can cause explosions under the proper circumstances, but I wouldn't count on Metchie being anything more than a sub-explosion at best.

      Beyond the locks, that's so gross, there is no reason Tremayne should be our 3rd (as I'm over XL and he shouldn't be higher than #4 on our depth chart this year), just no. It's why I was really hoping we'd just get rid of XL for whatever the best draft pick we can get for him is.  Then sign a true quick twitch guy to be our slot WR, and even then, still hope that Horn Jr might take that spot from them in camp anyways and turn that FA signing into our #4, with Moore as a special teamer who gets a jersey and then Tremayne as that last project.
