Honest Question

Before yesterday, had there ever been a healthy but inactive first round rookie for the Panthers?

 

I can't think of one. The last two years first round picks barley see the field when healthy. Why? We know Shaq can play well. Vernon has shown flashes, why not give him more chances?

Could placing Butler on the inactive list be a shot at Gettleman by Rivera. Pointing out to him that he did not need a DT as much as, say, another TE like Hunter Henry?

Don't think Ron works that way, never know - maybe the kid was late to a meeting or something?

I'll ask another question .. If Greg caught that pass on 4th down did you honestly have faith in Gano to make the FG? 

No but I'd have a little bit of faith in Cam getting a TD after that. Still a lot of time when that happened. And it was 3rd down, the sack was on 4th.

I don't think so. Rivera is so locked into his veteran starters that he wouldn't pull Dickson in favor of Henry even if he had drafted him.

Honestly with all the other stuff from this season... having a huge cap surplus and not spending it, drafting 47 rookie CBs, moving Remmers to the left, Shula and RR doing the same poo over and over and hoping for different results... nothing surprises me.

 

Does anybody know WHY he was inactive?

If we had beat writers worth a damn they would ask the question instead of 500 questions about Luke's concussion

Oh god, I hope so.

I need Stoic Ron to take shots at and do whatever he possibly can to piss off his boss, Da Gahdfahda.

I NEEDZ IT.

    • I don't think it was fear of the unknown because he tried to hide the extent of the injuries that made him drop. After the drop, the reports I heard were that teams knew what was wrong with his knee and it was something similar to another athlete from a few years ago (honestly don't remember if it was even a football player).  That it was basically one of those things where he should be fine for a while, there isn't a huge concern of immediate injury risk.   But what he has going on with his knee is something that is degenerative and there's little chance he'll be able to play more than 5 or so years on it before he won't be able to play anymore. So basically it was teams knowing if they draft him, he's probably going to be only a rookie contract player and even if he's great, you might not be able to get use out of him on a second contract.  Which in turn makes the drop make sense, but I'm kinda surprised some contending team didn't take him late in the 1st, hoping he'd put them over the top on a SB run but then not even have to worry about giving him a big contract in 4 years too.
    • Depends if they see the writing on the wall with their roster and contracts and decide to bite the bullet and begin a complete rebuild and roster overhaul.  I have no clue why some franchises (IE us) refuse to do this and keep half assing trying to win 8 games or so.  Do it correctly, take your lumps and build a contender.  We shall see what loomis decides.
    • Each team plays 17 games.  I do not see why they don't just have each team play one international game per year.  Neutral site game, 8 home, 8 away.
