Absolutely. However the cap room is likely not there and I doubt Fox would add another playmaker to the team at this stage of the season with Moose potentially coming back next week. He would instantly be the 2nd best option at wideout for the team if we did pick him up though.

Also, blackpanther hit the nail on the head. Until we can get a QB he wouldn't be much help to us anyway.

No. He's 31 years old and he's played horrifically bad this season. Looks like his best years are behind him.

Obvious FA choices are Brandon Marshall or Vincent Jackson but both seem unlikely to hit the open market and even if they do the price tag would be huge.

I'd rather see us go after Steve Breaston or Lance Moore. Possibly Kevin Walter or Domenik Hixon depending on how they do the remaining of the year.

He was invisible this year in San Diego. He ended up no better than the #4 on that team and they don't exactly have a great WR core.

Sounds like Steve Smith excluding yesterday, so we should of cut him?

Really? Your actually going to compare Steve struggling to Chambers? Like Steve's struggles had nothing to do with having a bottom 5 starting QB throwing him the ball, while Chambers has a top 10 throwing him the ball? Steve is still the #1 on this team and Chambers had been demoted to the #3 or 4 on his team. It's not even a comparison.

      Really? Wow. Sorry. Got my timeline messed up. I remember someone claiming to be Graham’s mom on the old Charlotte.com board so I guess it was a long time ago that he was here. I guess I thought he was after Kasay.

      Nick Scott may be doing better than thought.

      By TD alt · Posted

      Nick Scott has gotten his share of Huddle hate, but I came across this SI article by Zach Roberts when I was researching recently released Quandre Diggs, speculated to be a better option  (https://lastwordonsports.com/nfl/2025/11/07/breaking-titans-cut-former-three-time-pro-bowler-quandre-diggs-4-destinations-ranked/3/), but getting back to Nick Scott... Now to be fair, the observation on Scott was before the Packers game, but the stats couldn't have changed that much, and may have gotten better.   "At some point during virtually every Carolina Panthers game, you have probably found yourself grumbling about Nick Scott. The much-maligned safety has seemingly been out of position a lot or has failed to make a play. The eye test has often let him down. "But that's why stats are so helpful. Sometimes, the eye test, especially for fans, is unreliable. On occasion, advanced metrics help make sense of things and lend more clarity. In the case of Scott, they make him look like a much better safety than any of us would've guessed. "In coverage, Scott has given up just 15 yards and an average of five yards per catch. That's the lowest among safeties, leading superstars like Julian Love, Talanoa Hafunga, Quandre Diggs, Kerby Joseph, Kyle Hamilton, and Minkah Fitzpatrick. "In FI%, the safety leads all his counterparts once again at 40%. Brian Branch, Camren Kinchens, and Xavier McKinney are some notable names he leads. He's been pretty excellent in pass coverage, which is crucial for the Panthers." For those wondering, "FI" means forced incompletions. Now I'm way past trying to figure out why X links aren't embedding for me like they used to, but here you go: https://x.com/dacornerman/status/1981363757608513632?t=rx_5iLjp8_y5huNcg_y1nA&s=19   Suffice it to say that Scott may not be as bad as some have led on.    https://www.si.com/nfl/panthers/onsi/news/much-maligned-panthers-db-way-better-than-think
