Richard Sherman makes a lot of sense right now

100% for it. Without Horn the secondary's a liability again. 

The question is whether he'd even want to go to Carolina.

We're currently the #1 defense in the league.  Why would he not want to come and contribute.  As noted earlier, there is some connection with Fitterer.

My only concern is he still quick enough for our defense.  As a veteran his presence would be nice but if he can't fly around like he used to it might hurt our defense.

The Horn injury sucks but we need to try to avoid panic signings. We are trying to build sustained success, not a Hurney-esque trove of over-the-hill vets in a quest for "this is our year!"

 

Trading for Jared Allen was a good move in 2015. I think it’s a great idea. 
 

Horn was contributing and windows are small. A 1 year deal isn’t panicking.

As long as we don't mortgage our future I trust Fitz and Co. to make a good decision here. I would not say that this is our year, but our schedule is light. If we can get in the playoffs, and get CMC and Horn back by then, anything can happen. I am not opposed to making moves. But no, this year is not a, "Go out and trade a lot of picks for a STUD what the heck ever." We need those picks for sustained success. We don't need to give up future picks for a player now that MAY or MAY NOT put us over the hump. Our window isn't closing, it is opening.

We need to keep reminding ourselves that this is not our year.  We're a promising young team with loads of potential, but realistically we're still a season away from really competing.

Agreed. This has been phenomenal and it shows we might be, once again, ahead of schedule. That's really fuging enough for me.

I don't need a 15 win season(although I would take it for sure). Just keep showing this progress and that the majority of the offseasons moves were right.

Bouye is as good or better. And he plays man coverage. Sherman was never known for that.

 

We want man corners. That's why we got Melvin, Bouye, Horn. Why get a guy who doesn't do that when we  already have the guys we picked up to fill those roles before the draft unfurled?

    • They never even tried to pretend that he had to win tne job. I hated that. At least make it a fake competition for appearances.  Naw, just install him. 
    • For all the Bryce apologists, the Canales apologists are almost worse.
    • I mean, sure, he has made a mess of the football situation with his hires.   I'm just saying, he is often overused to take the blame of others who ALSO are bad at their jobs.    We see that often.  Not just with Tepper.  I mean, how many people did we scapegoat and try to give all the blame to before we admitted Matt Rhule was bad at his job.  Same for Fitterer.  Tepper's other pro team has gone to the postseason in back to back years now.  Think they set a MLS record this year too.  And they have barely existed.   Tepper is not crafting the roster and shaping the team.  Others do that for him.   The QB room is the way it is because of the big picture hires of David Tepper.  But on a practical football level discussion about why we suck at the QB spot and going forward, we got to talk about Dan Morgan.  He is the dude doing the bad job there.  I'm not trying to deflect any blame from Tepper.  I just can't stand how Dan Morgan gets the pass he gets from some and the narrative......Tepper is calling the QB room, and this weird Morgan mantra that he somehow is silently against everything he part of building (not saying that is you but it exists here)  I think with a good staff and QB,  no one would care about David Tepper.  I think Tepper has now limited his ability to get the good staff in the front office and sidelines.   In hindsight, the Matt Rhule hire.....might go down as the biggest error in Panther history.  Because it's all a snowball from that bad hire.
