Fair point. Same standard applies though.

Perhaps, but personally I don't think its a bad deal.  He played well, and the contract is cheap, and incentive laden.  So if he gets injured next season and only plays two games, they owe him very little.  Who might they have signed for such a small amount of guaranteed money that would be a better choice?

I don't necessarily think it's a bad deal for a backup.

Concerns people might have about his ability to stay healthy though are pretty well warranted.

Can't we just be happy for the guy.  It's a pretty low salary for a backup.  A backup who outplayed Haskins.  Sorry watching that last game heinicke earned a contract.  If he had played back in that infamous game we would have lost.  We would have lost and we would be picking higher ya da ya da.  I for one am glad he got paid hurney and Ron can do what they want with that roster.  Doesn't concern my team. A team I celebrated for winning a late season game with draft implications.

Look, I'm glad to see him get paid and get an honest shot at it. Heck, he could somehow pull a Delhomme and catch lightning in a bottle. Probably not, but I always pull for the underdog.

In the end, they are spending Washington's money, too, so its definitely nothing out of my team's pocket, so spend away! Double it guys!

(I'd also rather have Heinicke on my bench than Grier in case of a dire emergency.)

Well that’s more of a mural thing if you actually know what you’re talking about. There’s a reason why no other QB wants to go there and why Tom left. The fuging roster is a mess. Might have the worst skill position group in the league.
 

Yet Cam walked into a team with the most opt outs, no WRs, no TEs, no offseason, Caught Covid and couldn’t practice for weeks AND STILL won more games than the Panthers...

I'm guess I don't know what I'm talking about. Did Cam design a mural to place at mid field?

      Round 1: The Carolina Panthers select OT Monroe Freeling (Georgia)

      Everyone on the board at 19 had some reason to question their future success.  If you focus on the deficiencies of your pick vs. the strengths of everyone else, you will always see it as a half empty glass.   My view?  Tackle was a red flag here--Ickey out and may never be the same and the same was not worth the money he would demand.  Moton is old and playing on a peg leg, and Stone Forsythe could not be successful as a homeless man's body guard.   This pick has risks just like those before us and after us. I think he has the potential to be the best LT in this draft--and that is more valuable than a S or TE.   As much as I did not think they would do it--and I do not see the top of the draft as one that had typical "can't miss" OT prospects.  We will be OK.  Freeling is a coachable, eager, smart, athletic player. We could have done much worse. I had him going off the board around pick 12, so I did not give him much focus.  I love building through the OL, and we were scary at OT--better on paper than in reality, in fact.  I get it.  Morgan is solid, in my view.
