The Panthers took care of a little housekeeping, getting their four exclusive-rights free agents signed.

WRs Kenny Moore and Charly Martin, DT Nick Hayden and LB Jordan Senn signed their one-year deals late last week. Their contracts had expired after last season, but they weren't able to negotiate with other teams.

The Panthers have another two weeks and change to worry about their own restricted free agents, as the deadline for RFAs to sign offer sheets is April 15.

CBs Richard Marshall and C.J. Wilson are staying away from offseason workouts, but the rest are either working out here or are otherwise accounted for (rehabbing injuries).

I'm sorry but why are we still holding on to nick haydon, this is the one guy that I've seen that just has panned out at all. He was getting pushed around when he had all the weight to play inside and then when he lost the weight to meet Meeks system he was getting pushed around even more. He was one player I just knew last year was going to get cut and some how it never happend.

Lol, I don't think he makes the team this year as he will get caught up in the numbers game, but Hayden is not as bad as many on here try to make out. What I think a lot of people fail to realize, or truly understand its effects if they do realize, is that he cut weight in order to better fit into Meeks' speedy UT role, but instead was forced to play out of position at NT. And if you really paid attention, most of his problems were in the first game or two of preseason, but he got better as the season went along.

Don't get me wrong, he's completely average, and will probably never be more than a backup rotational player. But, IMO, the hate he gets is a tad unwarranted.

      It is time to Consider the Likelihood of WR at #19

      By Chief Keek · Posted

      The only WR that makes sense in the first is KC Concepcion. He fills multiple roles in the offense and is a PR specialist.

      It is time to Consider the Likelihood of WR at #19

      That depends upon what happens with receiver this year and what happens with free agency next year. Hopefully we'll be good by addressing receiver this year (regardless of whether we snag one in the first round or not). If we don't and are unlucky enough for to Coker get hurt (and X solidifies his bust status, and JAGs be JAGing), then we may be fùçked! But I assume that Dan Morgan and company will feel compelled to look for answers in free agency and use that to set up the draft just like this offseason.  Reality is not as simple as we drafted this position X times in a row in the first. If you're suggesting that we could draft a position in the first four times in a row, that's not likely. At some point probability has to be taken into account. I mean, how many years in a row can you be unlucky with one position?  As I've said at times before, you try and plan for the long term personnel-wise and cap-wise of course, but things happen so, in a sense, you still must look at each season--each "team" if you will--unto itself each season. So many things can happen between now and then. A major industry can profoundly impact the bigger picture (like this year), someone could offer you a trade proposal that you can't resist, players might not have progressed to your expectations--you know, things like that. Moreover, you have to be aware of the dynamics of each draft class, including the fact that there could be unexpected draft risers and fallers during the college season. That's a lot. As of today, we expect the 2027 draft to have more exclamations than question marks at OT and the QB class and WR group is expected to be exceptionally strong. We'll have a clearer picture of whatever we'll have to focus on next year at this time.  Lastly, keep in mind that there's always more than one way to get you to where you want to go. The yearly puzzle is not static, it's dynamic and complex.

      Emanuel McNeil Warren + Jacob Rodriguez

      By Chief Keek · Posted

      I'm fine with Thieneman or McNeil-Warren.. Rodriguez won't last until 51 so they would have to trade up, he may end up being a late first round selection. Anthony Hill Jr. is more likely to be available. I don't expect defense in the first round now after the murmurings of finding another weapon for Bryce.
