And like I said, at this point, our best bet is to try to go ahead and sign the pieces NO is banking on to lure him in with Armstead and Fuller, but instead of acting like NO and ATL do with us, we're run by a bunch of spineless pussies who want to sit on their hands and hope both we don't offend anyone and that Watson is blind to our dysfunction.  fuging idiots.

Are we supposed to force Armstead and Fuller to sign? Armstead is already sitting on at least one big offer from MIA.

He's probably never going to have a chance to meet with them again in his career. Grew up a Falcons fan. Worked for them as a ball boy. They aren't a realistic option here for a number of reasons. Just chill. 

he likely just wants to tell arthur blank how clueless we are

My thing is if I quit watching, it will be me quitting watching the NFL, not me quitting on the Panthers.

Seems to me like everyone just bows down to the NFL darlings, the Saints are seriously the favorites after just MERE DAYS AGO being -72 million under the cap.

The Panthers spent wisely and had the space  and best trade package to get Watson without manipulating the cap, and we get fugged.

We can argue all day whether the Saints are big market or not, but they have hosted the 2nd most Super Bowls for a reason.

If you think the NFL has no bias, Richardson was forced to sell the Panthers for being an 80 year old southern man on his 3rd heart acting like a pervert (which if you ask any nurse is common with people that age), while Bob Kraft got a BJ from a sex slave on camera and was allowed to keep his team and was barely punished. 
 

I'm not even angry about the no-trade clause, as much as I'd be angry the Texans just allow the Saints to fleece them over our package after Watson screwing them to begin with.

The whole reaching out to Atlanta thing is still weird because it’s a knock on NO and Cleveland too…not just us

It could be to get NO to give up more so HOU accepts. We have the best offer. HOU wants him to take ours but he’d rather go to NO but their offer isn’t good enough for HOU? It’s the only thing I can think of that makes any tiny bit of sense. But even that doesn’t make total sense. Idk.

Yeah sure, that’s what it is. Nothing to do with the fact he’s 10 years younger than their QB and would recharge their fanbase since he’s local. Probably just wants to sit down and talk about the weather.

We’ve done that like 8 times already over the course of these 2 days lol

The difference is the whole reason we were the favorites to get Watson is our trade package being vastly superior. It sounds like Watson is getting a take your pick decision.

      Serious question:  Why LG and not RG?  There may be something I do not know, but Hunt's contract is huge and he could be let go after this season (post june 1 cut) and it would save the Panthers a ton of money.  Extending him would be paying a G who is in his mid 30s guaranteed money (and I do not see that as a terrible thing).  So if we release him at age 31, we save $19m.  I like him, but at 31, will he be worth the mega contract?   LG Damien Lewis has actually outperformed Hunt and he is a year younger.  He would also save less vs. the cap and leave less in the dead cap pool.  While his current contract expires after the 2027 season, he is a better prospect (IMO) to extend because only 50% of his current contract was guaranteed.  Here are his contract numbers.   Now, getting to Ickey--he could want LT money if he is offered a second contract.  If we pay him LT money to play either G positions, we are likely overpaying.  Secondly, the injury he suffered could be one that limits his productivity.  Ickey was improving, but he was an average LT.  The only way I re-sign Ickey is to have him accept a G contract and make a lot of it incentive based.     I feel like I am missing something, but in my mind, Ickey was always a guard if you consider the fact that he is an average OT and would be a great G.  Is that still the case (injury)?

      Sorsby to the supplemental draft

      By UnluckyforSome · Posted

      Supplemental draft uses picks from next year. So a team were to draft him in the 1st, their upcoming 1st next draft would no longer be available. There have been some notable players that were obtained in the supplemental draft, such as Kosar. It doesn't necessarily happen every year either, and is more on a as needed basis. The gambling trouble is a big red flag for teams, and maybe pushes him down to a 4th? Not sure a team would use a 1st on him.
