Remember Curtis Samuel?

Honestly, we didn't really have to dodge the bullet, because it was only a cap gun. Samuel was destined to leave.

We weren't ever going to pay him what someone else would. I said it then in different words: he and Washington deserve one another.

No doubt. From an organizational standpoint, I don't think we were ever going to re-sign him.

From a fan standpoint, I know there was a small contingent that thought he was the guy we should keep.

Had a career year in his contract year, no surprise there. He was always talented but injury prone. I worry the same is happening to Donte Jackson right now. 

His career year was almost entirely due to conveniently timed injury to CMC. He got to basically step in for CMC's role in the passing game as well as get more carries as a runner. How he was used last year is basically the blueprint for how he should be used in the NFL. There just wasn't an opportunity for him to really due that here because we had CMC. That was an issue I had with Gettleman. He tended to spend too many high value draft picks on overlapping talents. CMC/Samuel. KB/Funchess. Short/Butler. Etc.

Possibly. It is tough for our WR's with the OL/QB situation. It isn't like DJ is blowing up either.

 

DJ is on pace to have his best season…by far.  1400 yards, 13 TDs.  And that is just projecting over 16 games and not 17. 

Which would be the 3rd best by a Panther statistically following only 89’s 2005 and Moose’s 2004 (if only using 16 games and not 17 as the bar).    

I mean he is on pace to at least  challenge for the best individual season in franchise history.   That’s blowing up in my mind.

DJ is low key one of the absolute best WRs in the NFL. The numbers he's out up throughout his career given his QB, OL, and overall offensive situations is pretty unbelievable. VERY few guys in today's league could've duplicated it IMO.

    • Jack Roslovic: Only 2 other UFA, right-handed centers age 28 or under had more points (39) than him- Sam Bennett (51) and Pius Suter (46). There were 4 other centers age 33 and older who scored more: Gireaux (37), Marchand (37), Tavares (34), Granlund (33).  Unless the Canes go old, if they let Jack walk, they won't get a center who scored more.  Thoughts? 
    • nope     This is why we come back every year.  Hope springs eternal
    • It's important to differentiate criticism and hate. I can't speak for that individual you quoted. But most people who have been critical of the Tepper's have been so because both of them have made it a point to put themselves front and center and in the middle of team operations and we have been largely horrific more often than not as a result. If people are making derogatory remarks about her that should be met with an appropriate response but if people are being defensive just because she's being criticized all I can say is people should get used to it. Both her and David would have been getting absolutely skewered by the media and the fans if this were a big market franchise. The Lakers are finally being sold off after years and years of public criticism of Jeannie Buss and even though I'm the furthest you could go from being a Lakers fan just about anyone you could meet who is familiar with the NBA would say the criticism was certainly valid.
