He's 31. We aren't in a position to contend. Resigning him would be dumb.

Although I do agree that we aren’t in a position to contend that’s not how the Panthers are approaching this.

They truly think they’re a LT and QB away from contending. I do think we end up with Garoppolo.  

So if they believe they’re contenders again this year (they will) I’d prefer they bring back Gilmore. If they’re choosing Reddick over Gilmore then OK but if it’s Donte over Gilmore then oh boy.

Extending Donte would be even dumber.  And guys like Gilmore are usually able to transition to safety as they age out of corner and still have just as much of an impact.  It would be dumb to let him walk if he wants to be here.

I could get on board with this.

Probably worth remembering that Matt Rhule is a big Donte Jackson fan though.

Rhule being a big fan of underachieving players is a common theme.  This team is going to be so much worse after he leaves than when he got here. Dark days ahead.

Personally I’d let Gilmore and Donte walk.

You drafted Horn 8th overall. Sent a 3rd for CJ. Keith Taylor was impressive enough. Hartsfield is solid. Bouye is your vet. 

The way they approached the CB position last year was so that they didn’t have to spend $$$ on it down the road

We are probably not as far away talent wise as many here think.  Two good olinemen and a QB would put us in position to contend, if we had a different coaching staff (a big if).  Of course, getting a good qb is the trick.  They aren't that easy to get, and Bridgewater II, I mean Garapalo ain't it.

What team are you watching? This team is more than two players away from being a contender. Especially with our cap situation.

This damn fool has thought he was just the right afterthought stop gap QB away from competing from the get go despite all the bullshit about a "process" and "five year" plan hence why we keep drastically overspending on those types of players.

I don’t understand this management. Trade for a hometown guy, who just so happens to arguably be the best CB in the game, only get to use him for a handful of games, and you don’t bring him back. I’m not saying that’s what happened, but I wouldn’t put it past this team. Gilmore>Djax and it should be Gilmore coming back. He actually wants to be here, bless his heart. 

 

I think the thought process was he would step in for Horn who was hurt back when we were stupid and thought we had a playoff team. I can live with that for a 6th rounder. It also prevent him from going to Tampa which was worth it….

      Predictions from observer staff on game today

      By raleigh-panther · Posted

      Game predictions All three of our predictors guessed last week that the Panthers would lose to the Miami Dolphins. All were wrong. That moves Fowler to 4-1 on the year, with Kaye and Zietlow each at 1-4. Fowler: Panthers 30, Dallas 27. The Cowboys are known for playing entertaining games this season due to a high-powered offense and low-level defense. I think Carolina pulls the mild upset here, with Bryce Young playing about as well as Dak Prescott and Carolina’s running game providing the difference. Bonus prediction: Tetairoa McMillan scores his first NFL TD. Kaye: Cowboys 33, Panthers 30.  The top offense in the league is likely to come out firing on Sunday, as Dallas looks to get over the .500 hump after five games (including one tie). Will the Panthers be able to keep pace? I actually think they will, for the most part. There’s a lot of boom-or-bust to the Cowboys’ defense, and while the unit is starting to find its footing, I think Bryce Young will still have a good afternoon. Look for Tetairoa McMillan to catch his first touchdown pass in a shootout. But I still think Dallas has a better brand of ball at the moment.   Zietlow: Cowboys 35, Panthers 31.                    I look at the Cowboys’ league-worst third-down percentage as a defense and can’t help but feel some optimism. Tag that with the other opportunities this defense could allow for Bryce Young, and a motivated Rico Dowdle, and a refreshed Xavier Legette ... and there’s excitement, for sure. Still, the Cowboys have gone toe-to-toe with the NFL’s best this season. Their quarterback is electric. Their tight end is prolific. Their defensive secondary is due for one of its patented turnover bonanzas. And to top it all off ... the Panthers will have a “home field advantage” in name only. There will be a lot of Cowboys fans in the crowd. A lot. It just doesn’t add up to a Panthers win to me. I’m rolling with America’s Team.
