It's a phrase Scott Fitterer used in his presser. Basically it means that they're going to explore every opportunity.

Ian Rapoport mentioned that pretty much anytime there's a player coming available or something like that happening, when Insiders go to check on who might be interested, Seattle is just about always on the list. And once they identify someone they want, they go after them aggressively.

Sounds like that's gonna be us from here on out, so if you've been frustrated in the past, asking yourself questions like "Why aren't the Panthers checking into this?", you should probably be pretty happy now.

From the article...

"But before we do anything outside, I need to figure out who's here. I need to figure out this roster. I need to figure out who's on our offensive line, who's on our defensive line. I know them from a 30,000-foot view, but I need to know them from a coaching standpoint, and a personal standpoint, and meet these guys and see what they're made of.

Confirming again that the trenches are central to his team building philosophy...

I know this is what Fit is saying now, and I'm genuinely excited about the hire, but I'm curious who was making the majority of the decisions in Seattle?  Because their offensive line had long been regarded as one of the worst even after they drafted Wilson.  Their defensive line has always kind of been a potluck of "ok" vets and young guys that never really pan out to their full potential.  It seemed their scheme was heavily based on the secondary, defensively.  So, I'm wondering how much input he had there if that has always been his philosophy?

I've really liked everything he has said thus far, but I'm just curious as to why it seems Seattle's setup wasn't representative of his philosophy.

From what I've read, I think that comes from Pete Carroll.

And for sure, he'll be working with Matt Rhule so whatever Rhule prioritizes, he will too.

A refreshing change for sure.

Don’t get me wrong - I don’t want adapt the Saints’ approach of signing whoever and damn the salary cap but it would be nice to know we’re going to be as proactive and aggressive as we fiscally can be competitive.

Why not?  Seems to work pretty well for them.

I don’t think I’m reading too much into this here but it seems like we are a lock to sign Dak.

We won't have the opportunity. He is 100% not hitting the free market. Either back in Dallas on an extension, the tag or he's tagged and traded. They're not letting him walk without anything in return.

      2025 Panthers Draft Class - Overview

      By Basbear · Posted

      He's a good feeney spin move that I never remember big money having. Plus I had forgotten that Charles is Panthers all-time sack leader. I havnt got a read on nic, he's awful young and talented. He talks about effort and wants to stop the run. I need to see him in live action, then maybe its nickname or former panther name time for me.

      Falcons Prank cost a few pennies

      By Pejorative Miscreant · Posted

      Not trying to be melodramatic but from a corporate standpoint there is a big push for data security and privacy pertaining to personal information.  Someone mentioned in the other thread about suing the kid but the only place there is possible money is him suing the Falcons organization for negligence related to the leaked personal information.   At best, Shedur makes some added bank and the Falcons look like fools while this circus plays out. At worst, he’ll get free credit monitoring for a year or two.

      Shaq Thompson Remains a Free Agent

      By MHS831 · Posted

      I met Shaq at an OTA---if you recall, he was absent until the end due to Washington being on the quarter system. He was very nice--soft spoken--but I was thinking "Linebacker?" As an OLB in a 4-3, he was small.  I did not see 6'0"--I saw 5'10-5'11 tops and maybe 220.  When we converted to a 3-4, that moved him inside and, in my opinion, shortened his career.  He just does not have the frame for ILB duties.  If you watch enough film, you will see that Shaq often was late getting to the hole and tackled from the side a lot.  Morgan and Luke were in the hole square with the LOS and talking on blocks and RBs head on.  Had Shaq met pulling guards and fullbacks in the hole like that, he would not have lasted 4 years. He had a very frail frame.
