You know who I speak of.....safety, running back, and guard. One of each in no particular order. Hopefully before pre-season. I hope they are not waiting for June cuts just to pick up a bunch of jags. Still a few FA that would certainly help this team. What u got?

 I don’t know that the team feels there’s as big a need at safety and guard as many fans do. So I wouldn’t really expect any big splashes there. 

And at running back, I wonder if they haven’t already had talks with CJ Anderson, but his price tag is a little more than they are willing to pay for a back up. If that’s the case, we are probably waiting until tomorrow or after cuts to find someone to compete with CAP.

They DEFINITELY need a veteran safety. Really the last key position they need to fill. Can't go into the season with what they have at safety or this is 2016 all over again.

I don't see another guard being brought in. They've got a bunch of guys that'll be in the mix at LG already. Sirles has experience, Silatolu has started games at LG (not a great option but he has) lot of hype around Dorian Johnson, maybe they give Larsen a look, Moton will be in the mix. I think someone will emerge from that group and grab the LG spot.

I'm way more concerned about the depth at tackle. If Daryl Williams or Matt "speedbump" Kalil go down, the depth behind them is almost non-existent. Bunch of cast offs from other teams practice squads from what I can see. From the Panthers depth chart it looks like Amini Silatolu is being listed as a tackle. So I'd definitely like to see them bring in a veteran tackle because if Amini is starting at LT, Cam is going to die.

Searcy and Colin Jones have been in the league since 2011 and we know how old Adams is. Are you saying they need a veteran or a BETTER veteran?

      Through 2 games cltfc has 12 shot attempts. Opponents 23 shots on target. Attack sucks, Defense definitely sucks. Kahlina is the only reason they haven't given up 14 goals in two games.

      Steve Smith on Ron Rivera

      By MHS831 · Posted

      I met a few times--never liked him. I figured he might have had a bad day--but then realized that he must have a lot of bad days. Once he raised his voice at my son because my son did not understand a question when SS was signing his jersey.  I wanted the jersey to represent his encounter with a Panther great, not some small man with a bad attitude.  I told me son, "Forget it.  He was asking you what your name is (My son was about 7 and told me that he thought Smitty was going to write (my son's) name on the jersey.  He said "Dad, I thought he was supposed to write HIS name on the jersey, not mine."  I said, "He was personalizing it, writing it to you--like a birthday card."  He is now grown, and he has a steve smith Jersey that is framed and matted.  He keeps it is his closet.  I asked him, "Why not have that out on your wall?"  He said, "All I remember is an A-hole scribbled on my shirt.  I don't remember a legend or hero.  But he had a Jake Delhomme Jersey on his wall.  "Jake was great.  I will always remember that."  (Jake stayed and talked to us for about 5 minutes or more--GREAT guy.)

      Is it possible for someone to regress in maturity as they age or has Steve really just been a jerk his entire life?
