Panthers sign OL Pat Elfein - 3 years, 13.5 million, 6 fully guaranteed

[45catfan]

The Vikings gave up on him only after a few seasons and drafted the center from NCSU, kicking Elfein to LG.  The Jets didn't think much of him apparently.

I'd argue that NC being 30th in education would determine that is a lie. 

Today I learned that you can take a stated education ranking and assume that’s the fan based education ranking. New Yorkers have the Bills and the Giants they can cheer for locally. The Jets are bottom of the barrel. 
 

But we do have fans that tYpE lIkE tHiS so maybe we are dumber than I thought.

Welcome! see you in the fall.

Looks like we're about to sign another Big Ugly too.

It's in the Panthers thread.

I've been mocking 2-3 OLs in the draft because I figured we would not be signing any starting caliber FAs on the OL.  Backups, sure...but not bonafide starters.

Ignoring the general intelligence of each fan base....why would you assume that the average Panther fan knows more about Elflein than the Vikings/Jets fans who have actually routinely watched him play on Sunday?

I’d argue our fan base is smarter than the Jets fan base for sure. 

Every fan base has it's uniformed emotionally biased fans.

This contract is fine.

And we have fans who think we should draft Kyle Trask... yikes...

under 5MM/year is low for a lineman. he must be a backup/rotational guy

He's only guaranteed 2 per.

You would be making the assumption that our entire fan base is comprised of North Carolinians.
