Then she should've had the guts not to bring it before the grand jury. This was a cop out. "Oh look public and media, I tried." 

Yes, she knows she's highly unlikely to get a conviction but she punted in front of the grand jury so that she could still claim that she tried to seek justice when anyone who knows anything about the grand jury system knows that a prosecutor has to go in front of the GJ with the intention of not securing an indictment in order to actually not secure an indictment.

Oh right, she should definitely take the ridiculous onslaught of media heat for exercising prosecutorial discretion on this case. The public lynch mob, as you're proving, doesn't care about facts or what's right. They can only tolerate the result they want to see. I don't blame her one bit for using the grand jury as a cop out. Any non-stupid person would have done the same exact thing in her situation.

Don't be so sure. We are front runners. 

But will he waive his no trade clause to come here? What has changed to make us a better destination than when his options were more limited with potential charges hanging over his head yet he wouldn't waive the clause then? If anything, we're a WORSE destination now.

Exactly.  There is no way she knows the other teams interested, or their potential offers or more importantly if he would even come here.

All you have to say is that you don't understand how the grand jury system works. That's okay.

We are only a worse destination on the doom and gloom huddle. Getting a franchise QB cures all ills. We are better built to win than Seattle. It’s either us or Philly imo

Oh trust me, I understand it much better than you. I can be quite certain of that.

What do you think I don't understand about it, exactly? Could you pinpoint the issue for me?

I’m sure Watson is just itching to play foran elite salary making coach like Matt Rhule. Hell, seeing that preview of Rhule wrongly blaming Cam for a play during a post game interview is probably so enticing that he’s begging for the chance to experience that lack of support himself. Not to mention, having to deal with that awesome part of the Carolina fan base that would tell you they still would prefer Sam freaking Darnold over him because……… well………..reasons.

      Carolina Still Not Respected

      By strato · Posted

      On offense, QB and RB are a thing. QB needs to improve a fair amount, and the RBs have me unsure if they can match last year’s  level. Brooks being the big mystery. It seems like they think he is good to go, they didn’t do that much to ad insurance.    You have to think the defense will be better. We are young in a lot of places and can hope for some growth from a few guys, as the season progresses.    I think other teams in our division helped themselves too though. Every single one of them picked in front of us for three days and took players we might have taken over who was there for us.

      Trevin Wallace - One Final Shot...or is Cherelus someone to watch?

      ??? Trevin is a lot of things, but slow is not one of them.

      Trevin Wallace - One Final Shot...or is Cherelus someone to watch?

      By Soul Rebel · Posted

      I'm holding out hope for Wallace and I feel like Dan wants this LB to hit. I still feel like Edgerrin Cooper was "their guy" and he got sniped from the FO. They also chose Wallace over Payton Wilson, so I think there's some ego there from the former LB. I also think Wallace has had some pretty mid partners the past two years. Josey, Rozeboom, and a bunch of PS/journeymen haven't helped his case.  We probably thought he could be "the guy" at ILB but he's shown that's not the case. Now the question is, can he be a "Robin" to Lloyd's "Batman".  As for Cherillus, I like him as a depth guy and have never thought of him as a starter. He flashed a number of times last year. Bam Martin-Scott is another depth/PS guy that we drafted with the hopes he could step up given the opportunity. He's the exact same build, 2 years younger than Cherelus and produced similar stats last year.  Iron sharpens iron. Let's go gents....time to step up or show yourself out.
