Boldin has alot of talent and I think he'd be a good fit for the team if Moose leaves. That is if he and Smith dont get unhappy about sharing catches. Also Arizona is a passing team where as Carolina is a running team, so he wouldnt get as many passes thrown his way like he does in Arizona. Apparently Jarrett isnt going to step up like we thought, even though I havent seen were he's been given a whole lot of opportunites.

my thoughts from a thread someone started yesterday about this:

http://www.carolinahuddle.com/forum/carolina-panthers/27111-potential-trade-for-boldin.html

not putting much stock in it but that would be sweet.

he had mccown throwing to him in AZ a few years back.

at this point anything that makes the team better, i'm all for. getting him here would do that. if it cost peppers, i'd be totally ok.

a couple things to consider...peppers has his offseason workouts in arizona and has been going there for years. it's obvious that he likes the area. the cards aren't a bad team so it's not like we'd be trading him to the lions or anything. they've been to the superbowl more recently than us and because of the division are going to be putting themselves in a position to get there every year. he gets to play half his games inside....sounds like an attractive situation.

also, chike okeafor, bert berry, and karlos dansby all have contracts that are up after this season. okeafor and berry are both older than pep and play OLB in their 3-4 (more of a hybrid 3-4/4-3) so it wouldn't be as huge an adjustment as it would going to a pure one like in new england. the cards are going to need someone to come in there. plus both okeafor and berry play on the right side....that's where he wants to be anyway.

still a lot of speculating but i could see this having some legs.

as far as boldin is concerned...he wants to be there even less than peppers wants to be here. they don't seem at all interested in keeping him there. he has one year left on his contract and they have needs all over the place. boldin is a luxury there. bringing someone in to take over at ROLB is a necessity.

seems like it would be an easy trade. throw a couple meaningless picks in there and call it a deal.

      Most hated teams

      After Bountygate and the information that came out on the Saints owners shielding pedophile priests in New Orleans it will forever be the Saints numero uno for me. FUG THE SAINTS! I hope this is just the beginning of a long term period of suffering for that shitty organization run by even shittier human beings. #2.Pats/Belicheat #3. Falcons (Mike Vick years then Matt Ryan/Julio running it up) Ryan pooping his pants and 28-3 def makes my bad days always better just thinking of those. #4 Pretty much any franchise fan base thats obnoxious Steelers, Eagles, Bills, Jets, Giants, Cowboys, etc.

      PFF Best Rookies so far: Two Panthers

      By BEASTfromdaEAST · Posted

      Thank God DM used that #8 pick on a bona fide WR1 and not some bum pass rushing prospect like Stewart or someone else. I believe Tet is legit WR1 material and going forward will be our long term answer at that position since we desperately were in need of one once they traded away DJ Moore.  Tet could possibly end up even being better long term than someone who I respect a ton as a WR in Moore. Evans has been a pleasant surprise and great TE/FB depth piece going forward who could make the most of his opportunities.  Any good offense worth a damn in the NFL has 3 TEs that can do multiple things and being scared by Ian Thomas play for years should makes us all appreciate what Evans is quietly doing as a ROOKIE at one of the hardest positions to learn at the pro level.  Keep cooking DM. This season is not over obviously but seeing some growth out of young talent finally is a breathe of fresh fuggin air for once.

      PFF Best Rookies so far: Two Panthers

      By mav1234 · Posted

      Saw this show up in my new feed. Nice to see a couple of our rookies making it into the top 5 so far, even if it is a pff measure... From https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-top-15-rookies-week-9-2025 ... 4. TE Mitchell Evans, Carolina Panthers (78.7) Evans struggled in the Panthers’ tight win over the Packers, finishing with a 41.8 PFF overall grade — third worst among tight ends this week. He was not targeted in the game and played only one snap in pass protection. He did log 15 run-blocking snaps, and although he earned a 68.9 PFF run-blocking grade in zone looks (seven snaps), his 39.0 mark in gap schemes (second worst for the week) dragged him down to a 46.6 PFF run-blocking grade overall — sixth worst for the week. Despite seeing zero targets over his past two games, Evans still leads the Carolina tight end group with a 74.3 PFF receiving grade. He has caught all nine of his targets for 90 yards, six first downs and two touchdowns. Evans also leads the Panthers’ tight end group in PFF run-blocking grade (72.2). He has recorded a 20.5% positive play rate across 175 snaps.  5. WR Tetairoa McMillan, Carolina Panthers (78.6) McMillan had a better day against the Packers, recording four catches for 46 yards. Most of that production came in the first quarter via two 16-yard catches — one of which he snatched from Carrington Valentine’s hands, who was in perfect position to break up the pass. McMillan accounted for three first downs on the day, although Green Bay was able to limit his impact after the catch, holding him to 0.8 yards after the catch per reception. McMillan now has 41 catches for 558 yards — a top-15 mark. He is also tied for second with 19 explosive gains of 15-plus yards. Three of McMillan’s catches against the Packers came between the numbers, bringing him to 22 for 318 yards and 19 first downs (tied for second most) this season. He owns a 26.1% threat rate and a 76.6 PFF receiving grade between the numbers. He also ranks in the top 10 in explosive gains (10) and yards after the catch per reception (5.5) within that area of the field.
