Pull the offer fug it 

Seriously. I really believe the Saints and Falcons are getting involved mainly to drive the price up for the Panthers. Neither of those teams can really pull it off without crippling themselves even more than the Panthers would. If the Panthers drop out I bet Deshaun goes somewhere wacky like the Giants. Who I still think are waiting in the wings with two top 10 draft picks this season.

The fact that there are so many reports he's "going to Carolina" out there on Twitter makes me think he's definitely not going to the Panthers.

LOL why is that?  Everybody believes the "hes going to Saints" or "hes going to Falcons" tweets from random people.  Why not us?  And the vast majority of the chatter out there has him ending up in Charlotte, whatever thats worth.

I think one thing that should be considered is him going to the Falcons or Saints is going to require some HUGE moves that will be noticeable.

It will probably also not happen this week because going to either of those 2 teams would require Watson playing hardball AGAINST the Panthers.

People assume Watson will pick one team and play hardball, he will likely give a list and we will likely be on it.

The Saints or Falcons DO NOT IN ANY CAPACITY have the ability to outbid us without dangerously hurting their ability to field a solid 53 man roster in 22-23

Just pull the offer now.  It doesn't seem like he wants to be here and we are looking like needy wimps right now.  Use all the money to build up a bad ass OL and let Sam flounder next year and then draft our future franchise QB.  

Agreed

Panthers should start fighting fire with fire. Leak that the panthers are inquiring about jimmy G. Then an hour or so later leak the panthers FO considering pulling offer for deshaun Watson. See if anything shakes loose

      Monday practice tweets

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      I know it's only been training camp and one preseason game, but I think T-Mac has already shown his floor to be exactly what I said about him in the pre-draft process. That his floor if he never improves his game, is as one of the best #2 WRs in the NFL, if not even still a low end #1 (i.e. a 25th-ish best WR in the league). I think it's safe to say he's already established himself as our #1, and there are only a small handful of teams in the league where I don't think he'd be their starting #2 WR in Week 1. Bengals (Higgins), Dolphins (Waddle), Eagles (Smith), Bucs (Godwin if healthy), Rams (Adams) are really the only teams where I think he'd be the #3 as a rookie in Week 1.  A few others like the Lions (Williams), Bears (Odunze), Seahawks (Kupp), Commanders (Deebo), where he'd be the 2b to start the season, just because they're vets and/or already have a year or two of experience with their team/QB. And even having said that, I think by year 2, he's better than every one of those players (And no, I'm not saying he's already going to be better than a prime version of Adams, just whatever he'll be at 33 next year), and same goes for Kupp, but that's more because it seems like his body might be quitting on him in a way that hasn't happened to Adams (yet).

      Well to be fair, Horn not practicing right now to let his stitches heal up from a car accident isn't something that should be concerning.  Sure, you don't want him missing practice leading into the season, but it's one that once healed, won't have lingering affects or fear of re-injuring it, it was just bad luck.

      Austin named starting center

      By UnluckyforSome · Posted

      Quality backups are absolutely important. This franchise has been plagued with depth problems. That said, there is a little bit of dismay that Mays can't beat out a 1-legged man, and all the talk going into the off-season was how BC would certainly be gone since he had position versatility.  In the end, it doesn't matter too awfully much, as I would be shocked to no end if Corbett makes it through the season. We know what we have in reserve, and that should surely be better than trying to sign random fat guys mid season to try and take over.
