Here is my last take on what happened over the past few days. Not many are saying this, but Delhomme HAD to go. With the labor laws we were able to escalate the $12MM (that we got by letting go of the other 4) and be done with his deal. Under a new agreement we would have had $4Mm next year and $3mm the next guranteed. It was the right thing to do. the problem was that we gave it to him. Richardson has to be pointing his finger and FURNEY!!! As for Lewis and Kemo... I liked what I saw from Leonard and Tyler. We gave up draft picks to get them. I think they will not do that much less then Lewis and Kemo in my opinion.Plus Ed Johnson has been hurt. he is also young and Meeks knows what he can do. I think we are going to be just fine there. Diggs was interesting. Not sure I really see the point especially since you redid the deal right after the season. Huh?? But Anderson and Conner probably can get the job done.I was impressed with Anderson. The biggest question is this: We went 4-1 down the stretch. Outside of Peppers(big one here) and Lewis, who else that we have let go had anything to do with that success. Not Much! So, I am not too worried. I think if Johnson and Brown get 75% of the snaps they will put up 7-10 sacks each. Leonard had 1 sack in 2 games. About the same as Lewis all year. So I leave this post with two questions:

WR: What in the world are we doing?

FB:Brad Hoover are checking your phone? I think you need to keep it close. You my friend are over the age limit of still being on this team.You might want to start looking at who needs a FB.

Fiammetta can play it and honestly Sutton wasn't too bad either when he tried it. You might be right, but we are taking chances in other places too.

JR saved a lot of money by cutting these guys and they were expendable. Hoov is only making around $860,000 and is an integral part of our run game. He also is on the last year of his deal so no labor agreement issues to worry about with his deal.

Once again the absolute importance of Hoover to this team is underestimated. Hoover is not going anywhere. Fiametta will be his future replacement but not this year, Hoover is the key to the running game which is the key to keeping Matt Moore on his feet and successful.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By CRA · Posted

      Well, the whole rationale used  for the high IQ point guard is it would allow us to spend our resources elsewhere….instead it’s all our first rounders ever since to support the bad pick.  Reality is our front office is just bad.  If you wanted Bryce Young you were going to need to do something unique and special for him.  Instead we just insert a QB with traditional tools into old NFL concepts that pair with traditional talent and our pass game is whack

      Good to see some other folks are speaking the same language on this. It's simple common sense. But it seems like there's a disconnect due to the misplaced value the team has put on Thielen because he was the only vaguely good veteran WR willing to sign with the Panthers after we traded away DJ Moore. That time has come and gone. We have two first round WR's on the roster now.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      Yeah I’m turning this into a Bryce can’t play QB thread. Just stating that offense was a poo show two years ago. No QB is succeeding in that, much less a rookie. I feel like it’s become a common debate strategy on here to just jump down the rabbit hole of saying he is just bad in so many ways when any certain point gets countered. If that doesn’t work we can deflect to how poorly this team has been ran. In regards to the actual point we are debating, the OL was struggling, half of the skill players aren’t on a roster, Mingo has done nothing with his new team and the staff are either not coaching or on their 3rd team in 3 years, aside from McCown (I liked McCown too). Honestly about as bad as it gets. No need to try to state how good of an offense it was billed it because that has been proven false at this point.
