Of course, and getting it done before FA so you could sign his replacement(Parrish) was well orchestrated on the FO.IMO

Yeah, that would be one of our motivations to get the deal done early. But I'm not convinced it was with a specific WR replacement in mind.

Looks like we are waiting on Bozeman and Foreman and, after signing these two today, I am not sure how much more we can do, saving $10m for draft picks.  Lotta unknowns right now. 

However, it looks as if we can enter the draft needing QB, WR, TE, and depth.

Yep look for 1 QB, 1 TE, and 2 WRs to be drafted.

Honestly the only thing I'm worried about is lack of offensive weapons. I don't like the idea of banking on 2nd round+ rookies or a TMJ breakout season.

I'm afraid that if they are going to want something better at wr they will have to make trade for one. The draft is light at wr this year and FA is pretty bad.

Slayton or Campbell are kind of the only half decent option (Lazard is likely following AR to NYJ)

Best case is something like trading for Courtland Sutton, landing Slayton, drafting Downs/Hyatt, and a later dude like Tyler Scott/Reed/Wilson/etc.  Match that up with TMJ, Shenault, & Shi, one or two is bound to click.  

Maybe a guy like Haynes is the right trade piece to consider for landing a proven commodity?

Man figuring out how to clean up the void DJ left is above my pay grade. We were already looking for someone to compliment him and now we don't have him. The draft is a crap shoot and FA is filled with no. 2 and 3 WR's.  Fitterer is going to earn his money fixing this mess.

We have over $120M in cap next year.  Possibilities are endless.

Hell no!

 

Cmon Jimmy I expected beter from you. This guy will be overpaid he's probably the best WR on the market but he's a low end #2 WR at best. No need to spend big money on that kind of WR.

 

What about trading for Sutton or Jeudy from the Broncos?

I'm looking him up and he put up very similar numbers to DJ Moore while playing 3 less games.  He is only one year older than DJ also.  Offer him a contract similar to Moore's and see what happens.  Draft another WR/TE at 39 and we suddenly have at least respectable weapons for our rookie.

      Round 7: The Carolina Panthers select LB Jackson Kuwatch (Miami of Ohio)

      By bigginpc · Posted

      He does have speed. 21+ top end speed is very fast for a linebacker and his 3 cone drill time is considered excellent, close to elite.

      This is awesome because you get to see the perspectives of the scouts--get a glimpse behind the curtain. I wonder whose doing this was; I am curious as to why David Tepper allowed it. Maybe it was his wife. Maybe Dan.  At least from my perspective--and probably one shared by other fans--when David Tepper bought the team, he closed everything off too much to the fans, and really didn't give an explanation. Things were obviously done because he (and/or some others wanted to do it). Remember when they used the guise of construction and all that to keep fans from seeing the team during practice? I know there are laws and safety and all that, but Tepper could've made it happen. And, of course, we all know that they essentially fired Jeremy from his independent contractor gig as a photojournalist. I never understood why they'd do that (and the negative reverberations obviously affected Jeremy and ultimately this place--i.e, us fans). The pie was (and is) certainly big enough to throw some scraps to the independents. I realize that you can't necessarily open the floodgates, but a few different perspectives from indy journalists whether in word or photos is a good thing in my mind.  So, it's great to see different perspectives. I will say this however: it is not without risk, as you know there will be some buster who will be calling the scouts out if the players flop. I think we should all keep in mind that the buck stops with the GM. It's nice to have one, however, that is so convicted in his people and process--and ultimately success, that he's willing to give fans access to this type of information. Pass this on to Tepper.

      Round 5: The Carolina Panthers select C Sam Hecht (Kansas State)

      I hope he ends up being our best ever at the position. Ryan Kalil left big shoes behind that we haven't quite been able to fill since.
