after a cursory google search, I can't find a link.  Of course I could be wrong, but I don't know why I'd remember it if it never happened.  I remember that he was respectful in his answer, that there was uncertainty, and why would he want to be a part of that.  Does Tepper coming in fit the timeline?  

Doesn't matter anyway.  He got paid, and we were still in cap hell.

I may not be understanding you correctly. Are you saying Bradberry said this in the last six months regarding his departure from the Panthers?

If I am understanding you correctly, that means he believed as of last March that Marty was on his way out.

No, that wasn't directly said, but a lot of other things were that gives the impression that he's near the bottom. The man played ball with character and integrity. He doesn't deserve to be disrespected. 

FS was (and has always been) on my "need to upgrade" list, that is for sure.

Make Paradis next June cut and then cut Burris

I think we are in a great position with Paradis--if we have a rookie G on either side, it might be worth it to keep him for 1 year---since we are not going to benefit from his cap relief this year anyway--and upgrade C next year.  However, if we can bring in a few G's in free agency, I really like the rookies in the draft (Myers, Humphries, etc) so we could add a T and a C and we'd be suddenly good on the OL.  If we trade for a QB, then we lose the first rounder, but there should be some tackles in the second and maybe a C in the third.  I could live with it.

Yes.  don't hold me to 6 months, but maybe a year.   But I could be thinking of another player.  The sentiment was he knew there was a shakeup coming and that it was an uncertainty that he didn't want to commit to.

Well, if he saw a shakeup coming back in March, I'd say his insight was pretty good.

We have needed safeties of some form or fashion ever since John Fox walked into the building.  Hopefully Rhule puts a higher value on them.

Basically since the first set of Ss we had as a team we have been in need of S lol.

Mike Minter wasn't the best S ever but fug man compared to the poo stains we've had he may as well be a HoFer. Chris Harris did well with us for a split minute. I mean a Harris Minter combo would be good if we ever coulda had that.

A lot of the newbs may not even know we had a legit fugin FS at one time. I think he moved to SS later on when he got older.

Not a fan either, but I respected the fact that Boston never took the late season for granted. He was one of the only players in 2019 to give 100% effort late season. Same for last year, he payed his best late season too. Hernaiy was about the only GM to give him big safety money, have fun in washington Tre..

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
