Source: WR Donte Moncrief & CB Bashaud Breeland Drawing Interest From Carolina

Just came to post about this. Then I looked at the number of followers and saw 100 or so on Twitter. Not saying he doesn't know stuff, but doesn't seem connected. 

That being said, Breeland would be a great signing but I feel like his price tag would be high. If reasonable, legit upgrade to our CBs and young enough to be with JB for awhile.

Dude DM’d me with proof so who knows. Seems trustworthy-ish.

plus he says we’re looking at Moncrief as well.

Ok...ok....now you're pulling at my heart strings. 

I want Moncrief on this team badly. If true this guy gets tons of respect. Haha.

If we land Breeland and Moncrief it would be a pretty successful FA start for us. I think Eric Reid will cost too much but if we could pull him in along with Peppers.....we would be set!!

Smith, Breeland, and Moncrief would definitely set us up very well to go with BPA at #24. Hopefully that BPA would work out to be a safety, interior OL, or DE. I really wish this looked like a stronger 4-3 DE class.

Right now, a lot of our 2018/2019 outlook is hinging on the looming Peppers decision.

I wouldn’t mind Arden Key, but I don’t want us to get a hold of a Randy Gregory either.

Key’s got the talent. Just needs the motivation to stay on the right track.

Safety I want is Justin Reid though. Really like him.

If we start making deals like this, it tells me they may have given Peppers a "take it or leave it" offer.  I think Peppers is not doing the Panthers favors by heading into free agency as he contemplates his future--as the GM, I lay $5m on the table and let him know that he is wanted here--he needs to retire a Panther--but the offer is subject to being pulled at any time.

Well, we'll find out in the coming day or so if this Vinny Dias knows a guy who knows a guy.  

I would be down with Breeland.  He can play zone and man formidably.  He had a rough start to 2016 against some top receivers but has been a solid corner for the Skins.  Clemson kid right?

    • excellent points and insights.  I agree on Tepper.  I guess I worry that his questions and comments might influence the thinking of his employees, that his presence in the room might add pressure to an already stressful situation, but after watching it again, it does not appear to be like that.  Morgan was in charge.  Canales mentioned needing a center, but beyond that, he was there to serve as a consultant, more or less, if asked.  I suppose my point was this--everyone knew their roles, I did not see egos--I saw empowerment.  As for Morgan--I saw a leader that listened to others, made wise decisions, and never lost control.  I was VERY IMPRESSED with Dan Morgan. 
    • Pretty good summation, although I would caution just a bit that there might be a little of over-enhanced expectations. I do agree with the assessment on BPA. It was exceedingly clear they had a specific shopping list. Early on when there was some discussion about the tackles available, Morgan was asked if he was willing to give up a 5th to get Freeling, if it came to that. I think the only way it wasn't a left tackle with that 1st pick is if none that were valued as a 1st were still available.
    • a) That they made it a point in the room to point at the paper and say, "hope the camera got that" suggests we really did target the players we wanted and got them. While there is a ton of editing happening to cut out conversations not related to the players we picked, there didn't seem to be a lot of panic about who/what was going on b) Tepper appreciates the analytics. Now that he has a few years to see how the front office team works together to do the analysis, it still looks like he's hands-off (he's learned his lesson??). He seemed less vocal than in previous years' Blueprints (at least, in the edit).  I wouldn't expect Canales to be overly vocal in the draft room - he's likely already made his opinions known behind the scenes about certain players. Draft day is Morgan and Tilis and Eager's day. Loved seeing their interactions/conversations  c) that's all Eager. There's a great piece somewhere about the analytics engine he built floating around somewhere (maybe it was just after the draft?), and how he's constantly tweaking it with info about the players and input from the coaching staff.  That the post-draft press - for the most part - all seem to be overly positive about the draft actions we had compared to other teams makes it seem like we've gotten the ship moving in the right direction. Whether it translates to on-field results, well, that's a different topic for hundreds of other threads
