It isn't over at wide receiver....

Read at your own discretion. I don't want to ruin the exciting offseason for you. 

The Carolina Panthers won't sign another significant veteran receiver. They may sign camp bodies, but no one that will be on the final roster. Russell Shepard will not be released until after the draft. He is now playing the role of insurance just in case the Panthers can't manage to get an acceptable receiver in rounds 1 or 2. When the Panthers do manage to get a receiver, he will be released. 

I suspect DJ Moore is on the radar as he would be able to contribute everywhere immediately. In the slot or on the outside. Kid can do anything the Panthers need. I do feel round two is more likely than round 1, and a possible trade up in that situation. The first half of round two looks to be a sweet spot for receivers.

 

Love,

I am beginning to think that we may not have any thirds after all is said and done (between the draft and/or free agency). 

James or Chubb in the first. I'm thinking James is gone by 24.

Moore in the second. 

Hell,  it seems like we're kind of on the same wavelength as far as Marty making some moves for Moore. 

 

Hell, if Marty gets too crazy,  we won't have a full set of picks next year.

Peppers, safety and a DE in the draft.

There really are no good 4-3 options likely available to us in the draft. I'm thinking we almost have to take a hard look at Curry once the Eagles do what they have to do.  Safety is a mystery. @SIGCHI222 is talking kinda funny about Pep by saying "nothing," so whatever that means...

How much do you think he will demand?

At this point,  I don't know.  Evans just got paid a lot,  and Torrey Smith is still getting paid 5 mil per (which if you look at receivers' salaries is cheap). I would think around 7 mil.

I really don’t see Moore making it to our second round pick. He could go round one after his combine performance. 

You could be right.  But then you have to start looking at specifics.  Which team will actually take him,  and are they really going to take him before Ridley,  Kirk,  and big boy (I forget his name)? 

And,  do you believe that if Hurney is looking at Chubb or Moore that he's really going to forego Chubb?

My thinking is that he’s a consensus top 5 WR in the draft. The chances of a top 5 WR being there at 55 are low. 

He measured at the combine taller, faster, stronger than expected. His stock is rising fast.

WR FA is over. We are now short a CB, SS, DE, DT, RB, & OG. TD, & Kalil are retiring, Adam is not far away, & Luke still has his concussion issues. Torrey can be a good addition, but at a bad price. Hurney said, "We need to get younger, & faster". Torrey is 29, so that backfired. Hurney said he has learned from his past mistakes, but I don't believe he was referring to paying too much for veteran (OLD) talent. I am afraid the new owner will have to slap some sense into this organization.

      Moton extension. 2 more years, $44M

      By mrcompletely11 · Posted

      fuging Christ dude this isnt hard.  Like at all.  I get you simping for this poo team is your thing but sometimes you have to look at reality.   Even removing his bum knee from the equation, none of this made sense.  He is 31.  He has been paid handsomely for his service here.  He was currently under contract for this season.  Why in the holy fug did anything have to be done 2 weeks before the season started.   The people for this move, in this thread are saying A) He deserved it (this is the nfl it doesnt work like that  B) It frees up cap space (then why in the fug didnt we do this in Feb or C) You logic (We are getting a deal at 53 million guaranteed for the next 3 years.   You realize with this deal we cannot cut or trade his ass for 3 years.  You understand this right?   So in my opinion we should have let this ride into the offseason and go from there, what he is going to threaten to walk, big fuging deal he would be 32 on a chronically bad knee, what other moronic franchise is going to give him 40 million up front?  It wasnt going to happen.   And you are acting like its impossible to replace a 32 year old RT with a bum knee.  Just go and draft someone, move Icky to RT.  There are tons of options instead of extending this dude 2 weeks before the fuging season.  The truth is Morgan and the shitheads in the FO fell for this dudes crying act and got all sentimental and shelled out another ext.  We are a poverty ass franchise that doesnt act professionally

      Amazing what the prospect of being traded to Carolina will do for contract negotiations.

      Level Of Enthusiasm Going into Game 1

      5 Im glad football is back but after the embarrassment that was the browns pre season game where our starting D made Sanders look like a serviceable NFL QB, I lost hope again for a successful Panthers campaign this year.  I do hope I’m wrong!
