Gantt says we will let Dwill walk in 2010.

We should trade DeAngelo to Cleveland for a few of their many draft picks and maybe Josh Cribbs and a draft pick. He'd get us more picks in return, and we have a very good run-blocking line, which is pretty much the key. Oh yeah, running backs really arent hard to find. Alot of the arguments against letting Williams walk, or better yet trading him for a slew of picks, regardless of whether it would be in the best interest of the team, is because in your opinion, "D-Will's better." Okay, great reasoning.

I'm sure many Steelers fans were very upset Porter was let go in favor or younger, cheaper James Harrison, and the Pats totally got screwed when they traded 30 year old Richard Seymour for another first-round pick and all they had left on the D-line was Ty Warren and Vince Wilfork and some other scrub to hold down the fort in the meantime. Dumb Belichick.:rolleyes:

There are plenty examples of teams letting go of players and going with a cheaper/younger version and being better off for it. Panthers fans are way too emotionally invested in the players on this team.

I don't think there is anything wrong with being emotionally invested in the players on the team. Heck, it's part of the reason I am a fan of the NFL more than college, because you get to see these players stick around for a long time. As a fan, I like seeing our great players stick around

      Rookie minicamp

      This is a good story--I LOVED his dad as a person and player--I talked to him at an OTA (he was back for his second stint) and he was talking about Moore (the WR from Wake Forest) being so young.  I was with my teenage son and told him, "This is Taylor.  He and I attended the OTAs when you were in Rock Hill as a rookie."  He jokes, "Was he in diapers then?" and laughed.  I imagine Moose III was in diapers when we chatted that day.  So I really would love for this to work out.  However, his stats do not suggest he was anything special in college.

      Joe Person: Panthers really like Mason Graham and Jalon Walker

      I guess there are signs. The combination of the turf toe, hamstring, and knee issues led to questions about his long-term health and affected his draft stock, causing him to fall to the second round.  Here is what I know about a knee injury.  It changes nearly every aspect of your lower body movement.  So the turf toe and hamstring could be related.  It makes him seem injury prone.  I guess the knee was not the most recent injury, so the others could have been a result of favoring the knee. Johnson did not run the 40 at the combine or pro day.  That suggests there is something he feels might drop his value.  So if you downplay the severity of the injury, have a history of possibly related injuries, and refuse to demonstrate (when given multiple opportunities) that you are fully recovered, don't get mad when your stock drops.

      I saw numerous reports leading up to the draft that he'd been injury red flagged by numerous teams due to cartilage damage and wear issues that they think could shorten his career.
