Is that what the Jags offered? Sounds like he's looking for a good deal, and not just some team to pull him out of the cast off FA pile. Maybe he'd also like to play for a good team ....

I don't know what they offered,but their offer will likely be higher than what Gettleman would likely pay. I hope that he looks good, and that his desire to play for Carolina balances the scale.

A couple thoughts regarding whether he'd be willing to play here. Rumors are he wants a starting job. Since he's working out here I'm sure we've been in communication with him and either laid it out one way or another: that he could compete for the RT job, or would be a backup. If it was the first, then if the rumor's true he would have that opportunity here. If it's the second then it's not true since if it was he wouldn't bother working out for us to be a backup. I'd say it's unlikely to happen but certainly a possibility. And one that would help our team quite a bit. He's had offers from other teams but it's very possible that he wants to play for a contender. Like us... I hope it happens. If it does, our line is much improved and knowing DG we wouldn't have overpaid. If it doesn't, I'm sure DG wouldn't lose any sleep over it.

    • Overall, fine.  Wish we landed a guy to pair with Lloyd but I presume this means they're giving Trevin one final year to put it together (72nd overall 2 years back).  Flashed potential year 1, had a dud last year.   R1: Freeling LT - Great value and a need; landed our new long term LT that could end up starting off the bat.  Icky had a terrible injury and is not playing in his contract year.  Walker is what he is on a 1-year rental, who even knows how he fits. You get premier OTs early if you can find em' and he has what you want.  I thought he could have gone as high as 6/CLE pre-draft, so am a big fan of the selection.  Looking at this class, he's one of the guys at the top that is like "okay that's the LT".  Others have this right/left or G/T type discussion about them.  Freeling is an LT.   R2: Hunter NT - We didn't really have anyone replacing A'Shawn's snaps in our rotation.  Wharton & Brown aren't 3 downers so adding Hunter to the mix fills a big void. I dug deep into S and LB this draft so was a bit to zeroed in - In recognize the value and impact add in the trenches. R3: Brazzell WR - Intriguing.  Given our history, I don't really want to place any expectations here, but a different style weapon for Bryce. I pretty much expect a WR drafted yearly with this regime. Other notables.. Hecht C - These are the type of rounds where starting centers have been found.  We got a starter for this year, but Hecht seems pretty capable and I like it for a long term find.  SOLID AF.  Wheatley S - A pretty well regarded safety prospect.  And we see it every year (like this one) safeties get hyped, people think they may go sooner than expected, and the league reminds them how it rolls.  Plenty of nice safeties have been found in the 4th-6th in recent years.  Big fan of Wheatley. Can't say I know enough about Lee or the others. 
    • I'm excited. I love situations like this when you could potentially find a diamond in the rough on the cheap. And you know guys like this are gonna put in the work and desire way more than others to be great.
