Granted, i hardly ever post, but i do read this site religiously everyday, so i'm hoping i don't get flamed horribly, but what about the panthers taking a hard look at Rossum? He just got released today, and with our return woes, it might be worth a shot to grab him. I understand we just signed Dexter to the PS, and the fact that Kenneth Moore had a hell of a return, but i think that talent wise, Rossum is a lot better than either of them.

Thoughts?

Uhm, Mr. Jones is currently employed by the Tennessee Titans. There goes that option.. We did pick him back up this preseason, but he missed the physical...

Yeah...Jones looked like he was running in sand for TN this weekend. Wouldn't want him back regardless. He was OK as filler for last year but that is about it.

He was better then a filler he was the best returner we have had in awhile. But it appears that was due to the wedge.

If you consider top 5 in the league, then yeah, I guess he was just an OK filler.. lmfao

Bring in Rossum, what's the worst that could happen?

agreed sultan, but obviously the FO doesn't think that moore should be doing KR and PR duties, since they brought in dexter jackson to the PS. I personally thought Moore can eventually do pretty well in that role if he can hold on to the ball, what about releasing jackson? personally i think having two ppl brought in just for special teams is a bit ridiculous, and i don't think jackson has shone anyone yet he's capable of doing better than Rossum.

He's an upgrade. Our rotation of young guys who don't specialize in it and could get hurt is a little ridiculous. I'd prefer to have Munnerlyn, Stewart, and Moore focused exclusively on improving at their respective positions.

I don't know who you let go. It would be nice if we didn't have three roster spots for kickers.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      I'm just tired of ppl saying he's so accurate and then have to see recievers slow down to recieve the ball, ruining any chance at YAC

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      Some people will really look at stuff like this and say "no more excuses" but then make excuses to try and explain away the validity of big-time throws. 🙃   Back on topic though, as I mentioned in the other AT thread earlier, I hope that the team is still exploring the deal. If the Vikings want the Panthers to take on some of the salary, then it had better be at worst a 4th-round pick (though I imagine Dan angling for a 3rd). If they're willing to take on all of it, then maybe at worst a 5th. Tough pill to swallow, giving up a 4th for a 35yr old WR, but if MIN believes they can have similar success behind McCarthy then it could be a smart deal for them. Hell, if AT has any gas in the tank and gives them a 1yr sweetheart deal to close out at home, even better for Minnesota. Yea, Bryce loses his best and most reliable WR. Hunter Renfrow though isn't what I would call a huge step down though (if he's as advertised throughout camp), and it gives more reps to TMac + XL + Coker. This season is all about continued development and answering some of the looming questions (Is Bryce the guy? Is Evero the DC going fwd? How do the young WRs develop? How long does it take this defense to bounce back from being historically awful?).
