Important Free Agency Note- After 4PM EST Today (May 3rd), FA Signings Do Not Impact Compensatory Picks

spotrac is 17.2

Hoping that number is right... and that would give us plenty of cushion to add a few more quality guys to round out the roster, sign our draft picks, and still give some space to sign someone during the season if there are injuries.

I know Ron is looking at this list right now up in Washington...he loves him some old vets, and there is merit in having some to keep the locker room right, and teach the young guys.

 

I get the feeling Matt is on the other end of the spectrum.  I think he'll want to play his young guys and let them grow through experience and coaching.  There is also merit in that.  I don't think we have plans to challenge for a ring this year, so we'll give our young guys opportunities, and better coaching than we had previously (still pulling for Ron).

If we could somehow land Hooker and Leno, I think we are a vastly different team heading into next year.

From top to bottom, I don't see a position that we didn't improve....except maybe at guard. Even then, I think two of Elflein, Miller, Erving, Daley, Brown and Moore can start.

    • All these rankings have more to do with the writers love or hate for a team.  Morgan, IMO, has done a really good job at building this team.  Yeah, there are a couple of whiffs but for the most part he has done quite well drafting and signing free agents.  22 is a bit low but it's a stupid opinion based on how little a writer knows about the Panthers. 
    • When I saw that I was thinking the same thing.  If Evero does have a great season and gets hired as a head coach I wouldn't mind see McD as our DC.  If we do poorly as a team, I definitely would want him to be the front runner for HC.
    • But it's not about not upsetting a player under contract, it's about not causing a rift in the locker room. The players love Bryce, whether as a person or a player doesn't matter.  You can't spend a Top 10 pick on a QB and then still start your #1 overall pick in the last year of their contract. That act alone will cause a massive locker room rift/distraction that would be unavoidable.  Some players will question why you "wasted" a Top 10 pick on a QB you're not going to start instead of someone who can help right away.  While others will question why we are keeping Bryce around for the season when it's clear he's not the future guy at that point. It would just make for a bad start to the rookie's career while causing locker room distractions.  Again, I'd bet this has never happened in this league before with any 1st round QB, let alone the #1 overall pick, and there is a reason for it, which is that it would be epically stupid to do. And I used the Vikings as the example as they're the closest I can think of, because again, there isn't a direct comparison as nobody has ever done it because it's that dumb of an idea (no offense lol).
