With new ownership will we finally stop this whole only drafting choirboy thing?

As if ownership has any room to pass judgement on a player with a past

 

We should of drafted Dede Westbrook and Dalvin Cook, but old Jerry had his moral compass out.

 

If Josh Gordon is available we should move heaven and earth to bring him to Carolina

We've drafted plenty of bad dudes.... Just not the really obvious ones. What do you expect? Hurndog to send scouts into prisons? I would prefer talented guys with minimal criminal concerns. 

we could target only weed related offenders...thats not really a crime.

Never had a problem with drafting decent young men with a clean record. At the end of the day we watch the NFL to be entertained but these guys are role models for our children and communities. They get paid significantly more than the average human being for having god given talents that 99% of us don’t possess and the least they can do is not be a fug up. 

 

Plus its good business. You wanna pay a guy to have him sit at home (i.e Greg Hardy 2014) while we have to let someone of value walk with the money you paid the other guy?

I’m hoping so, people make mistakes, no need in condemning a guy if he’s clean his act up since said incident. We have scouts getting paid thousands/millions, shouldn’t be hard to tell if a guy has truly cleaned his act up

that's right , and where better to bring a player like that to... wouldn't this type team be a good example for players like that ...redemption is a wonderful thing

We've drafted plenty of weed offenders. We have some on the team right now. Guys like Frank Alexander wasted cap space and potential because they couldn't trick the test. 

We don't need to target weed offenders.... just good football players that won't get suspended or arrested. 

When weed is no longer tested by the NFL, I don't mind the potheads.

Exactly, and people act like we can’t just released,trade,etc a player if he can’t get his act together with minimum repercussion

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out. 
    • Hiring Shula & his Cam save us playbook.
    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
