A significant part of the Panthers success can be attributed to...

The Chicago Bears?


Greg Olsen

Getting rid of Ron Rivera which ultimately led to him coming here

Peanut

Jared Allen

 

Are they like our farm system or something?

Is it like a forgone conclusion that Alshon Jeffrey will be here next year or the year after?

Do we have some kind of profit share with them?

The problem with wanting Gettleman to pay for expensive receiver talent is that Cam has done so well with marginal talent that he has shown Gettleman that he can do great with rookies and journeyman. That allows us to spend the bulk of our money elsewhere and makes acquiring guys like Jeffreys a low priority.

Actually I think the bigger issue preventing that is that a Benjamin-Funchess combo with Ginn as a number three looks pretty good right now.

John Fox knew we would play the seahawks in the playoffs so he made sure cutler got hurt and started clausen against the seahawks, then made sure he made his way to Baltimore to play the seahawks again...just so they would have an overinflated ego. He also knows we will play the broncos in the SB and has surgically inserted microfilm into jared allen's left butt cheek. This was all done with the promise of his initials in the dedication of philly's and fiz's new book.

Unless Alshon presents a deal Getts can't refuse. (Deal on the cheap) He won't make that push. And shouldn't. We have areas that need more attention. CB, SS, TE (to pair with and eventually replace Olsen), and PASS RUSHERS!!! I think these will be priority. IMO.

I love the idea of getting a really good young tight end to work with Olsen.

It reminds me of what the Patriots had with Gronkowski and Hernandez (before Hernandez went psycho).

That is true, plus Gettleman might even go for another big guy in the draft to play receiver or TE.  We can afford to draft another big guy with upside midway through the draft with these three guys as our starters.  We dont have a lot of holes right now.

    • lol, that second part is quite literally one of the dumbest things ever. Having or not having guaranteed contracts has absolutely nothing to do with how much these billionaires have to pay.  Because there is a hard cap and a minimum cap spend requirement, and teams either use their cap or roll it over to use it all the next year, so the owners have to pay the same amount of money in the end no matter what. Having fully guaranteed contracts in the NFL would only hurt salary cap management, and thus would end up screwing over the team and its fan base when teams kiss on signings as they take up cap room that is needed to improve the roster. Look at the Browns with Watson, they gave him the fully guaranteed deal and all it’s doing is sucking up massive cap space now.  If they hadn’t done that, the owner would still be paying the same amount of money each year as that cap space would still be used elsewhere. If you want to argue for fully guaranteed contracts because the players deserve it, that’s an entirely different argument and a fair one to discuss.  But anyone against fully guaranteed deals isn’t doing it to argue for the billionaire owners.

    • Ryabkin could be the steal of the draft, he was a Top 10 pick heading into last season and had a rough year.  Lots of GMs passed on him because of that and his workouts. Pick has really high upside and Svech should be able to translate Rod tearing his arse a new one for making dumb plays since Svech has had several years of it.  🤣😂
