According to Rapoport the Panthers have released LB Andre Smith. 

 

Lots of UNC fans had hoped smith worked out, but he never accomplished much more than being an average special teams player. 

 

It is encouraging to see Rhule not deferring to tenure and keeping the guys that earn a spot.

I have to say that I could not figure out how he ever earned a roster spot--and I like UNC--which should have nothing to do with it.  LB and DB sure is a head scratch at this point. 

 

Hurney basically traded for him. That got him a roster spot in a face saving move for a few years. 

 

Apparently Rhule isn't interested in Hurney's ego.

Apparently he's only interested in his own ego. Matt Rhule is looking more like a Schiano every day.

Yeah, I can be objective with guys from my alma mater, and in all honesty, I felt he never got a real shot here.  He looked really good when he got the PT, imo.  But, ever since what happened with Cam, I can take any move at this point and this one is barely a blip on the radar...  i think he'll catch on somewhere and have a solid career.

Did not know you went to UNC. Awesome man. Let's tank for Sam Howell. :)

Coming from the guy that swore up and down Cam would be here and I was just click baiting by telling you he wasn't.

Oh yeah, you got me. Cam, the most important player in our franchise history being released in favor of a $20 million dollar at best game manager that will fug the Panthers out of having a legit chance at an actual QB. Totally forgot how you called that one man.

Keep making dumbass posts in support of bad players year in and out, and predictions that after ass-opposite of reality. You do it every fuging season, and for the one time you're "correct" you gloat about it, even when it's absolutely fuging over the team.

Trash brains.

      Brown on BY9 while talking to Chris Long

      By cranky · Posted

      Purdy only passed for 127 yards week 18 and then only passed for 108 yards in the playoffs. In those two games he had 0 TD's and 2 INT's and a fumble. Mayes in the Superbowl had a total of 63 yards with 0 TDS at the 13 minute mark in the fourth quarter. He only had success when the Seahawks went into prevent defense. Philip Rivers only had 127 total yards in week 15. Boomer with the Vikings had 126 yards and 4 INTS in week 13. Cousins had 167 yrds week 14 and while it was over 150 yards, he also had 2 INTs with 0 TDs. Yeah Young didn't have a good game but neither did any of these other QBs. And while he had the lowest yardage, he was the only other QB that at least had a TD - Philips had the other.

      Joe Person: Panthers are NOT expected to extend Bryce Young before the 2026 season

      By CPF4LIFE · Posted

      He has to have a great year not a great few games...probably gonna have to finish with a winning record too for the first time as well. Front office has all the leverage, havent got much on the return for trading up in the draft no matter what bryce fans want to say. They have no reason to offer an extension right now. All the talk about his personality is just deflection off the talk about money. You can be the nicest guy in the world, it doesnt win games or make you a top 10 QB. They know that, spending all that money on the O line and drafting multiple offensive players in the first round of past drafts says a QB should have better production than what we have seen so far. We have to lean on a run game more to be productive in games rather than a qb we traded up to no.1 for. You can easily draft a more talented QB on a cheaper contract and get the same results bryce has given you so far. Thats the truth.
