Wow has Jerry been wielding the axe the past 24 hours! Jake, Landon, Kemo, D.Lewis. Also Pep, Brayton, Moose, and Llyod are all gone as of now. That is a poo load of our starters from last year.

If we are starting over would it surprise anyone if there was a Surprise trade for example Smitty or Deangelo? Because i just get the feeling that something huge is about to go down...Smitty, while i love the guy to death, is over 30 now, and we could sell high on this one and get a nice draft pick for him. It just seems anythings possible with what i have just witnessed..

The fun part is we have to sign guys to replace all these players..

I don't think we are releasing mediocre/overpaid starters in order to trade guys that we need to win. We aren't "starting over" like the Lions or the Chiefs would start over. We are starting over by getting rid of guys that don't contribute enough for the amount they were due to get paid (Kemo was due a huge bonus and he just came off a torn achilles). These guys were not guys that we couldn't replace with guys on the roster already or with guys in the draft/FA. Steve, Deangelo, Stew, are all staying.

However, we might be clearing some cap space to sign a couple big name RFA like Marshall. He is a first round pick tender and I could see them trading the 2011 pick to get Marshall. Charles Grant and Aaron Kampman are also still out there as UFA that we could sign as depth for the DL.

they won't legimately be replaced until after this season.....when Fox is gone. Make no sense from JR's seat to cut all this fat....and then let a lame duck coach spend money. Rejects w/ one year deals is what we will see in Carolina.

If they make a trade, I think it would be Dwill or maybe Gross or Smitty.

Problem with trading Smith is that then what does Matt Moore have? Better sign Bryant and someone else to make up for it.

Whatever happens, the possible big trade would be to get into the First Round of draft and obviously rebuilding around Matt Moore and Meeks Defense. Or just trying to save alot of money till they know what new deal with Players will look like.

The only way ANY of those guys are going anywhere is if they are just legitimately pissed about Delhomme being let go. I don't see that for Gross or Deangelo. I could see Steve being emotional about it but he'll get over it when the team is better and he is back to catching 1100-1200 yards of balls from Moore.

If Carolina will be making ANY trades today, it will be aquiring a player for a draft pick. We won't be getting rid of any high profile players. My guess (if any trades go down) we will aquire someone like Boldin or Marshall to go along with Smitty, which might explain why we are creating so much cap room.. to sign one of these guys to a big deal.

      Moton Meets the Press

      By Pejorative Miscreant · Posted

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By rmoneyg35 · Posted

      I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
