that's actually a very good number considering how much talent we have. surprised it's that low, even with all the cuts lately.

Agreed. Considering we have Davis, Beason, J-Stew and D-Will, Smitty, Gamble, Otah and Kalil and Gross, etc etc all under contract...that's impressive. If any of those guys were to hit free agency they'd land massive contracts. The Panthers do well at giving enough without going insane (let's just NOT remember the whole Jake contract though....)

that's some good company we keep. 3 out of 4 losing teams.

We are only that low because of the contracts we dumped. We have many roster spots to fill...and our number will go up.

The other teams have been that low for several years....thus why they suck.

We are positioned to be able to retain our young starts....while being ready for next year's FA class (which should be very, very good). All of those 4 yr FA's that becasue RFA this year will hit the market next year.

I would rather not over pay this year and win the lottery next year....even if it means a mediocre 2010 season.

agreed. plus, it's still early. there will be money spent on a lot of 1-2 year deals to fill up the roster.

i'd be very surprised if we didn't have the full 80 roster spots going into TC. there is a lot of room to bring in some good value still.

Well that is one way to look at it. OR you could be happy we have a team with decent pieces while teams like the LIONS 106, Broncos 105 and Browns have few young pieces to be real proud of. OR teams like the Redskins and Raiders who overpay for mediocre talent. Whatever some say cheap i say smart business.

      Rams are willing to deal one of the 1st rounders for all-pro talent in secondary

      By strato · Posted

      They can get film of all the games? Every team? Wow! Who knew… Our games with them are big examples of why they are in  the CB market so hard.   It is the study they do getting ready for the games.  Preparing to play against is a little different than just analyzing film in scout mode. Deeper dive. Then you are analyzing post game too.  This goes to why players often change teams but stay in the division. The opponents know each other on a higher level.  Plus if you lost to us, you used to get fired. Now you have to trade your first round pick. Moving up on the world.

      I honestly can’t believe this team’s turnaround this season. It’s surreal. Figured healthy we’d be fringe playoffs and with another lottery pick could finally turn the corner, but we don’t even need that. This group is ready. We haven’t played remotely well the last 5 games and yet still blew out 5 bad teams by 16+ each game like it was casual practice. We had a few solid teams with Kemba and Big Al but this is easily our best group since the original Hornets moved to NO. Man, what a shift in culture this new ownership group and front office has brought. So damn happy to see it after years of suffering and consistently meaningless games in this stretch of previous seasons.   Only 2.5 games out of the 6 seed, although Miami, Atlanta and Orlando have been playing well too. Gonna be a fun final stretch, hopefully we can get a top 8 seed at the very least. Celtics tomorrow will be a good test. Would be huge to keep the road winning streak up against a very hot top team on the 2nd half of a back to back. We’ve played Boston pretty well the last few years with much of this same group despite sucking so I do feel pretty good about it. Kon is due for a huge game coming off a few cold shooting games (although despite the poor shooting he’s been contributing well with defense, assists and rebounds).

      It amazes me how underrated Horn has become after he finally was able to stay on the field. Sure last year wasn’t perfect but he was still a huge reason for our rebound defensively and I’d say he’s easily a top 10 corner. You don’t want to see Mike Jackson as our top corner. Any player is available for the right price but I’d be extremely hesitant to move Horn even for a big haul from LA.
