It was the first attempt to roll with someone other than Thomas.  Yes, many of us were happy.  Hurst got cut and still was better than Thomas. 

Hey, trust me, Ik Thomas sucks and was overpaid. The solution was not to pay another booty TE even more money. Especially when tremble was just drafted in the 3rd

Maybe it’s bc I’ve thought hurts sucked for years but everyone seemed stoked we were getting him. 0 talent eval just “omg its not Ian Thomas !”

I think everyone was relieved there was a chance of anything besides Ian Thomas like you said. It's that old Ian Thomas PTSD kicking in. I have some of it myself as well. I would probably get excited about any TE signing at this point.

Yeah but we had Tommy T on the roster? It usually takes TEs time to develop and has historically been one of the slower developing positions. Why hinder TT’s development further by overpaying a JAG? Just cause? I’d rather have bad TEs for cheap than bad TEs for real $

      Veteran CB trying out for Panthers

      By frankw · Posted

      I like Jaycee a lot and appreciate his leadership but to say he's above Ramsey right now is based on hopium let's be realistic. He's got a great deal to prove this season. I’m hoping to see that he firmly establishes himself amongst his peers.

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      It’s amazing how simple it is. When you are winning 2-7 games for 7 straight years, you’d think people would understand that just drafting some starters isn’t poo unless they are above average NFL starters. Justin Jefferson and Jamar Chase started their rookie years like Legette did so we got an elite WR in the 2024 draft. Luke was a rookie starter just like Wallace. Damn we basically got a Kuechly and Jefferson last year. Bravo Dan Morgan!!!

      I didn’t even say they would be starters. I don’t think Legette will be and Coker was not drafted. Coker chose to sign with us because our WR room gave him a chance to start even though we drafted a guy in the 1st. That should tell you something when Coker chose to come to Carolina even after we took Legette. We drafted and signed guys to potentially replace Sanders, who isn’t a starter yet over Tremble) and Wallace. Go look at our other drafts since Rhule. We had tons of rookie contribution from all of our recent classes. Why, because our overall talent sucked and we needed bodies. Go look at PFR. Here’s some of our players who “started” for a year: TMJ, Mingo, BC, Ian Thomas, Jermaine Carter, Dennis Daley, YGM and Roy. That’s what Legette and Wallace are right now although unless TMac bombs, Legette has kind of already lost his spot. We’ve had shitty drafts since 2018 and every single one has contributed at least two guys who’ve started so 2024 is tied for last right now and we just had a draft where we took 3 more players who play the same position as 3 of our top 4 picks in 2024 but somehow I’m saying that the 2024 draft class is good? Nope, the 2024 draft class was bad and our team is still in the low enough talent quadrant that lots of rookie contribute in our holes until we replace them. Been the same story since 2018 and accelerated as the old solid vets retired/move on.
