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.

      Trevin Wallace - PFF Breakout Nominee

      By Icege · Posted

      I'm impressed with the way Tillis is structuring the books. The team is currently spending more on non-premium positions like iOL and S, but that’s because they’ve got rookie deals locked in at several key premium spots: QB: Bryce Young LT: Ikem Ekwonu EDGE: Nic Scourton, Princely Umanmielen WR: Tetairoa McMillan, Xavier Legette, Jalen Coker The only veterans at those premium positions on second contracts are Taylor Moton, Adam Thielen, and the recently extended Jaycee Horn. Given that setup, it makes sense to allocate bigger dollars toward non-premium roles - especially if those pieces support the development and success of the younger core. Investing in iOL helps our young QB. Strengthening the DL helps both of our young EDGE guys and our high-paid CB. I can see the vision. Fingers crossed that it works!

      JJ Jansen on tanking

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      I don’t know why the tanking concept is not understood. Coaches and players are not involved at all. It’s always the front office. If we had actually traded players like we should have back in 2022, we would have effectively tanked and gotten a better pick than 9 so we lost all the draft picks to get Young. We traded CMC. We should have traded Burns for the haul and taken GB’s offer of a 1st for Moore. We could have easily traded anyone else. We see it in every sport, every year. Trade deadlines where bad teams give up current assets for future assets. Unfortunately, we were stupid and decided we only wanted to trade CMC for peanuts even though we clearly had a plan to go after Young. We were dumb and there is no way you can tell me that we shouldn’t have tanked via trading away Burns, Moore and anyone else. We’d be a much better team right now had we had a fire sale and tanked the 2022 season. Trading away your top players for future draft picks or prospects (baseball) is tanking. Shoeless Joe and the black Sox is not tanking. That’s point shaving/betting on your sport/team. Again, I just don’t get why this concept is so hard to get when MLB, NFL and NBA teams trade players for future assets every single year and usually end up with better draft slots (or at least odds since Hornets never win the lottery).
