D'Andre Swift was had for a bag of Cheetos and put up 175 yds last night... Not looking good Mr. Fitterer

Don’t we have one of the cheapest offenses in the whole NFL?

Holy sh*t you're right https://sports.yahoo.com/packers-spending-second-fewest-salary-151425477.html

Welp, you get what you pay for. NFL literally has it set up for offenses to dominate, yet here we are spending the least on offense in the whole NFL. This franchise is a joke.

$2.555M this season (which is what Miles is getting paid).

That makes him the 28th highest paid RB this season.

What in the actual fug are you even complaining about?

Miles has a 7.5 million cap hit next year.

That's cool. We can drown under all of the posts bitching about that next season.

But this season? He costs $5M less than that.

(Funny enough, he still wouldn't be a top 5 paid RB as OP suggested. He'd be #7 behind James Connor and Joe Mixon.)

Well, if the convo is Philly is spending money smartly and us dumb….the actual contract is relevant.  Can just turn a blind eye to it because we don’t feel the impact of it today. 

Miles Sanders being #7 is stupid 

it’s like the 10 mill cap we are taking right now for Chosen Robbie Robby Bobby Anderson.  We drastically overpaid a role player.

I work with an Eagles fan she said the Panthers were stupid for paying him that much.

To his credit Fitterer understands that you need to be aggressive about acquiring outside talent to be a top team, but there does seem to be a reoccurring theme that he just never seems to bring in the right guys, even while other teams do manage to find good acquisitions like this. He doesn’t even have an Olsen trade as a feather in his cap like Marty had to fall back on 

 

the free agent acquisitions have been largely duds and the trades have been awful.

Oh no, the team spent $750k more on Miles Sanders this season than the Eagles did on DeAndre Swift.

If only the Panthers hadn't spent less than $3M this season on their RB room. They could have spent $6M like the Eagles did.

I’m sure the fact that the Eagles have a veteran superbowl runner up QB and a ton of outside receiver threats had nothing to do with Swift running all over the stacked box Im sure he faced.

Marty had some key adds that got us to the Super Bowl in 2003 and to then back to NFCCG in 2005.   Marty got really bad when the lockout talk started.  Prior to that, Marty was decent.

You are right.  And it’s why Miles Sanders had his one good season last year as a rusher despite being meh at the rest of the job.  The OL is great  and teams have to worry about everything else not named the RB rushing. 

which is why Philly didn’t value him and we overpaid
