No Star or KK. Seems like they both may be on the outs with management. Putting the 2014 and 2015 first round picks as the captains for the future. Byrd is not making it unless Ginn is done as the return man. If that is the case, we will see Joe Adams all over again with Byrd. No one trusts him to field a punt at the critical point of a game never mind the playoffs or SB.

So the guy who they just picked up a 5th year player option on is in the outs with management? Care to explain?

doesn't pass the smell test.

1) byrd isn't eding out ginn as punt returner or fozzy as kick returner barring a miraculous three game stretch

2) shaq is great but he's going against keuchly, luke, and CJ as defensive guys

3) kelvin is great but by all accounts he's one of the most soft-spoken guys on an offense stacked with vets

team captains aren't bound by position any longer, but on a team with cam, kalil, luke, and TD as locks for team captains the math just isn't there for all of those guys and the odds stack up against more than maybe one of them transcending their skill and leadership tier.

Go tard somewhere else. Star is a staple. I guess some people need blinking lights and a bright sign to realize something

    • I've shown you numerous comps for other tackles in the same age and talent range.  His contract, taking into account his age, health, etc.  is the going rate.  It's a fair deal. I've shown you examples of how long it usually takes to find even an average replacement.  Hell, look at every tackle that has ever started for the Panthers.  How many would you consider a success?  They are not easy to find. After everything we've done with this team since drafting Bryce why would we decide to let our best linemen go and add a huge question mark at tackle?   FA is a crapshoot in which any guy available will have cons/issues.  If not, they'll cost a fortune.   Outside of a first or maybe 2nd round pic next year it'll take a few years for a tackle to learn the position at the NFL level.  There are still questions about Icky. Every vet NFL player deals with maintenance.  Between the contract value and history I'm not overly worried about his knee.  I contend his knee issue isn't anything to be overly worried about.  It's not zero risk but it's an acceptable risk.  Every player we draft and every contract we sign has risk.  You're blowing up his own negative words about his knees and ignoring him saying he is healthy and the knee is a non issue.  You have a strong chicken little complex with this team.  Being he has always been a Panther they are very aware of any health issues. We paid now because now is cheaper.  If his knee was really an issue they would have waited.  That tells me it's not the issue you want it to be.
