if the Panthers don’t plan on resigning Jackson they need to get some picks unless there is some tag and trade

course Gilmore might walk after the season

just sick of losing players like peppers, Norman, Norwell to an extent and Brabderry for absolutely nothing

good GMs can look ahead a bit and figure it out, especially when their teams aren’t winning poo anyways

this is one of the main things i hoped would be different with Fit

Because it isn't that easy.  If it was, why doesn't every team just trade every player on the last year of their contract?

Nobody is giving up anything worth having, just so they can have Donte Jackson for 8 games and then have to re-sign him to a nice-sized contract.  The only teams that do anything like that are teams going all-in on a Super Bowl and they only do it for elite guys like Von Miller.  Donte is good but he isn't an absolute game-changer like Von is, even at Von's age.  

8-game Donte on his last year gets us, at best, a 5th.  Maybe, maybe a 4th to a team really, really desperate to win this season.

      Canales' O - Year 2

      By strato · Posted

      Tell me something I don’t know. I said right there in what you quoted I wasn’t optimistic. I said I could still be hopeful. Which ain’t the same but will have to do.  I have optimism regarding more compartmentalization aspects of the team. Some players. The good draft we had is cause for optimism. Maybe that Tepper is actually being less harmful. Maybe.  I had some for Canales but his meter is about 50% right now with me.  Etc

      Canes vs Ducks 7pm

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      Got a little more juice in us this period. Gotta get these chances to start falling. Ducks and us keep getting these chippies that are missing. First team to start banging these in and I think the floodgates open.

      S Fowler Coker in, Legette out as wr2

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      The things that make people give up on him is that he is getting worse in terms of simple football things and he isn't improving on much in terms of being a WR. He has improved his drops but then he has increased his insanely boneheaded penalties. I mean, the dude has THREE false start penalties. That is the second most on the team.  Couple that with his obvious limitations in terms of field vision, agility, etc and you just start to wonder what there really is to even believe in. I'll put it this way, when such a notoriously terrible personnel management coach like Canales gives up on you, that's saying a lot. He has ridden more bums for longer than any of us care to remember.
