[Person] Panthers were also in on DL Denico Autry and CB Michael Davis. Probably a good indicator of where they'll look today and in coming days

I think Leonard Williams could be the FA prize. I didn't think the Panthers would spend big money at DT but after cutting Kerr I think it's a possibility. They have to have a DT lined up to sign today after cutting him this late in the game.

He's franchise tagged.

The Leonard Williams that got franchise tagged by the Giants? You think Gettleman is going to pull another "yank the tag offer" move late in the offseason?

Young and talented? Not our style. We could go after Artie Burns...he tore his acl, so he fits our preferred profile.

You'd think with the Fitterer/Seattle connection, the Panthers would either be the first team to jump into the mix to sign Griffin, or it's telling if he's getting let go by Seattle AND the Panthers aren't interested....he's good but inconsistent from what I've read/seen about him.

Yep injured guys!

That's about all they can afford to sign this year.  It's a gamble they decided to take apparently. Sign guys who may be good but have had injuries in the past.  These guys will be cheaper than the guys everyone is clamoring for.  It's a sad reality that most or ignoring.

Perhaps we just don't want to pay the price of admission for him.

I would say that, but Panthers have done this for almost 27 years.

I would honestly have just preferred to go heavy OL in the draft. I suppose we will see how that works out. We would need depth guys, regardless.

It's a new regime, so I'm trying to not let my ingrained fear from the past 2 decades to cloud my perspective on what they are "trying" to do with the team.  It will take a couple of seasons to determine if it's just more of the same.

Well, it might only take one season. I can understand the one season "denial" buffer though. I remember looking back wistfully on the "Hurney 2.0" buffer year, the "Riverboat Ron" buffer years, the "Gettlemagic" buffer years, the "John Fox" buffer years......

Good times.

That's why I'm not going to label anything as good or bad.  I'm just trying to determine what the actual plan is going forward.  Whether it works out or not will take some time to figure out.

      Bryce Young is the worst QB in Panthers History

      By jb2288 · Posted

      agree to disagree you are entitled to that opinion even though I find the argument completely bizarre based on data. I could type out a long paragraph discussing those areas but what’s the point. I posted a screenshot that showed Bryce in a similar post snap situation with a free rusher in his face which resulted in a TD - that’s what happened on the play so I posted it.

      By frankw · Posted

      I've already addressed this notion in a previous reply. You are basing your assertion outside reality if you think Bryce would have not only been more successful but defeated the Patriots in place of Herbert. Bryce got blown off the field by that Patriots team with the highest paid OL in the league. We've seen Bryce with an OL that gave up 65 sacks and it resulted in the #1 pick. And that is not a defense of Herbert or arguing he is a great QB in any way. He has physical talent but he has been similar to Darnold early in his career in terms of his very up and down perfomances. However that does not change the fact that they have significantly less invested in the OL than the Panthers.

      This Bryce Guy (General BY Discussion)

      By CRA · Posted

      I think Tepper has been setting the stage where pending there is no miracle he wipes it all clean.  Think you already have been told that with small things like Evero staying.  Bryce is the guy next year.  OC, DC, everything stays the same.  QB room largely the same.  Nothing would really matter there.  They basically get one more shot and it goes how the schedule paired with our 27th ranked O predictably most likely goes.  Everyone out the door together.  Bryce is a bridge tier QB.  I don’t see Dave surviving where he could be bridge QB here in reality.
