Panthers bring back Ian Thomas

I can’t believe how much of a waste this is. We just traded up for Tremble in the 3rd to be our TE. He looked great at blocking and catching, honestly every time he came in. 

This is just stupid no matter how you spin it. Ian provides us with nothing you can’t get from off the street.

This is really beyond. Like no one has done anything much league wise yet and we just dished out $6 mil in house to our 2nd string (at best) TE. An absolute joke.

Fire Rhule, fire Fit, get them all the hell out of that building

Ian followed the Middle Management Way.  Suck up, don't threaten, get rewarded.

The problem, the upper management here sucks, so they hire terrible middle managers, which produces a bad work environment, which produces a crap product.

Fans aren't gonna buy said product.

What was the deal like? Was it cheap? I mean I know very few like him but we have to have someone there on the team and everybody cant a Greg Olsen in his prime. I can't stand Rhule but maybe he was signed as a depth piece? He has at least proven he can be a depth piece. Definitely not starting material of course but would be okay depth is we had another second coming of Greg Olsen.

Something like 3 years and 16.5 million. It's mind-blowing. 

For one of the worst TE in the league. 

As a blocker, he is average. Middle of the pack.

    • He is a really good WR and they have a rookie QB so they can afford it. Look at what they have been wasting on Cousins for years? That's where this cap came from lol. Now the guaranteed money is high but Minny had to keep him while taking a shot on a rookie QB.     
    • Johnson is very smart IMO. He will get paid either way but avoiding a terrible spot can save your career too. He looks to be working the system and good for him. I always thought hiring interviews go both ways and have been disappointed watching people not realize this. He handled DC roughly but it was also funny because he did see them as what they are which is a new ownership group, even with Petters, he would be likely be destined for failure there while they figure out the normal learning curve of the NFL.  It's not lying it's just 'your great but I can't say what your not because that is taboo'. Sometimes lies are expected if the truth isn't what they want.  I agree generally. Ron was doing great work as a DC where he put in 6 years as DC at 2 teams vs Canales 1 year as OC before becoming a HC. Ron is such a known quantity by now, he earned his 2nd shot as a HC and it went as expected given his proclivities. Offense is just safer in this NFL vs Defense so any one that can score will get a look. Ryans is a beast but how do you think he fairs without Slowick? Which HCs were in the SB? Offensive guys. It's a thing and makes laughing about TB, Atlanta and NO all having beatable defensive coaches the Panthers still can't beat LOL. It's a dump. If your building a career the Panthers are a long shot. If you are taking a shot, getting paid and/or ready to grow from this failure then this is a great option. I think the jobs are extremely valuable on many levels but there is always a turd in the punchbowl with Tepper. Hurney, Rhule, Friterer, now Caldwell and maybe Morgan. Tepper always leaves some dookie around to contaminate the next batch...they literally help him fug up the next time. It's Tepper's MO, spend lots of money and lean on past failures into new failures. There has not been a truly fresh start under Tepper yet which explains why he keeps failing. 
    • yeah lol never say it can't get any worse with David Tepper in charge
