I might target former 2017 first rounder Adoree' Jackson (We like CBs named Jackson) who is 28.  He had a down year in 2023, but before that, he has been solid most of the time--

Steven Nelson (31) Houston had 4 picks last year and has been pretty solid. 

I am not sure I would target one CB and wait for an answer--we need them in here for OTAs. 

(Some of these veterans, like Favre at the end of his career, will hold out or not sign until after camp--that is good for the veteran player, but for team chemistry and mentoring, it is not ideal.)

I was thinking Adoree too. I don't want to fixate on one specific guy, just go get the best cost option for this year and roll with it

If all 5 of our CBs had the last name "Jackson" wonder what we could call all 5 Jacksons? 

OK--my meds are kicking in--I am back.

Carolina currently has just over $8MM in cap space, some of which will be needed to sign the team’s draft class. That will still leave sufficient funds to make a somewhat notable addition late in free agency, and Gilmore could remain a target on a low-cost arrangement. With the sides apparently not in discussion, however, it would come as a surprise if a deal were to come together in the near future. Aside from Gilmore, other free agent cornerback options include J.C. Jackson, Steven Nelson, Adoree’ Jackson and Patrick Peterson.

There is no reason to sign Gilmore right now. Let the young guys compete behind Horn and see who steps up. Best time to sign him would be in the preseason. He will probably still be available. He’s better Horn injury insurance than a #2 starting CB.

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
