And one thing about Tepper, he's made some bad decisions, but he's learned to bounce from an idea when it doesn't work and try something very different.

At some point something has to stick, right?

I really hope it sustains as well. I can’t help but wonder that Tepper’s mind is 2-3 steps ahead in building a sports/gambling/entertainment empire.
 

Owning an NFL team just checked a box for him on the way to owning a recession proof business that’s fun even in a down economy.

TE, CB and WR at #2 quality in FA.  Outside of that, trade down in the draft and accumulate a couple extra picks.  Top of the first round picks are worth gold; bottom of the round silver.  After that you are looking for copper around the scrap yard.  We just have to be able to locate it.  Meaning, since we don't have the lucrative first rounder, we might as well take the time to look for the value in the mid to late rounds. The more we have, the better chances of finding what we are looking for.  It can be done, we haven't had the scouts and GMs to pull it off in the past.  The Rams have been killing it of late finding those mid-round gems and they haven't had high picks in the past few drafts.

Don't trade for anyone. Not this year. Trade down in. The draft to get a couple more picks. That's it.

FAs sould be IoLs.

Get your skill guys in the draft.

Reminds me of 2010 when the new collective bargaining agreement was still in process.  We didn't sign anyone of substance and just carried over to 2011 when we drafted Cam.

      Panthers Blueprint: Draft

      By OldhamA · Posted

      I'd hold on to Walker - we have no OT depth at all. Freeling is a block of clay - all the tools are there and he appears to have a great attitude. He needs serious work on his technique to realise his potential though.

      From my watch last night: They weren't trading out of 19 unless it was a daft offer once Freeling got there. They were clearly antsy to get Hunter - and Minnesota actually called to offer the trade down. They weren't trading out of the third round pick once Brazzell fell to it (and Canales would have been happy with him in the second round). They traded back a lot on Day 3 - even if Morgan 'Babe Ruth'd' it with Lee, Hecht and Wheatley; they clearly weren't the only guys they would have taken at those picks. I'm curious to know which player caused the reaction at the start of day 2 (Dan Morgan): "of course they'd pick him"

      Watching this confirms that this staff and front office is super high on Monroe Freeling. I wouldn't be surprised if he's gotta a real chance to win the starting LT job in camp. If he does, we can look to flip Rasheed Walker to a contender desperate for tackle help.   As for Ickey I still really like him and wanna extend him but based on how the staff was talking about Freeling it might be time for ickey to start taking some practice sets at guard if he wants to stay here as we are gonna have to have figure out a solution for the contracts of Lewis and Hunt.  My preferred scenario for the Oline in 2027 is Freeling-Ickey-Hech-Lewis-Moton.
