What do you mean "meh"? Jackson is an immediate upgrade over ginn.

Don't disagree with that. There are always free agents that are immediate upgrades over current/former players.

I mean I'd rather use whatever Garcon or Jackson would cost and upgrade at like 5 other positions, or toward KK, or toward Star, or toward Trai.

If they are cheap or the same price as Teddy, then sure. I am assuming they can be had at a premium, a difference I'd rather use elsewhere.  If Ted wants to play hard ball, kick him to the curb and get Stills, play Byrd, or draft someone.

I don't know that Jackson will get the money everyone is thinking he will. I mean he's been misused now in Washington for what 3 years now? Obviously he will cost more than Ginn. I just don't think he will fetch as much as everyone thinks. Which could end up being a bargain for us because I feel he would put up Philly like numbers in our system.

Jackson is going to break the bank somewhere.....looking at you San Fran.

He could, but don't you think the chances are small? He already got his yuge contract and he's older now. I'm not saying it will be team friendly, but surely it won't be that yuge right?

No, I fully expect him to get a pretty big deal.  If that isn't the case, I'm all for having him in the building.

      Thomas Fletcher Didn’t Make It, But These Four Did

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      Yeah, I wasn't a fan of the contract. IMO, he's a borderline top 10 type of CB when healthy and he's missed damn near half of the games in his career. I hope it proves to be the correct decision but damn... it's a really tough sell to convince me that making him the NFL's highest paid DB is a wise move.

      The draft isn't a vending machine where you insert a pick, press A3, and out pops a franchise cornerstone. It’s more like a gacha game - you turn in a premium (or non-premium) ticket, hear the fun little jingle, and wait to see what you pulled... without knowing how strong it'll actually end up. League-wide, the average draft hits on about 30 - 40% of its picks when teams have a standard seven selections. So if you walk away with 3 - 4 real contributors... that's considered a solid class. Hitting on 4 out of 11 is right in that range. To be clear: this isn't some veiled endorsement of Tepper, Fitterer, or Rhule. It’s simply an honest accounting of which players from that class are still with the Panthers and heading into their fourth year - and thus outlasting the average NFL career. Just trying to lean more toward more critiquing with clarity rather than lighting it all on fire for the spectacle of the flames.

      Potential changes to playoff seeding

      By nogoodbum · Posted

      Please do not forget that everything the NFL does is for the increase in revenue. If a big market team draws more money [ticket sales, betting revenue, TV ratings & etc.] when they play at home versus on the road in the playoffs, you can safely be sure the NFL knows & will act accordingly. Just like the draft lottery proposal, if the NFL can capture TV ratings for it, they will.
