Would you expect any prime age free agents to sign with us this year? Aside from the overpaid guys lol. Clowney is like the only borderline decent FA contract for his value but he's 31 and his family is like 30 minutes away so that's a bit of a wash

I mean, some of y'all keep saying "overpay," but I see it as the cost of doing business. If you want the best, you have to pay them. If you want a hope and a prayer or an old guy with maybe some juice left, you get a discount.

It's temporary re-tool. The mixed of vets and those big FA signings is to see what Canales and Young can do together. Can they build around Young and does Canales have what it takes. They gave them enough tools to give them a chance to be competitive. All smart moves. If it works out that we have 6 to 8 wins and a competitive team, they can continue to build around young and give Canales what he wants/needs, even if that means 15 or more new guys next year.

You are so close to getting the point. Dancing all around it.

JJ, Shaq, Dalton, and Theilen account for a lot of that.  

Probably not that much 

49% of the roster is 27 and above

It’s no big deal but I think it does sort of highlight how the Panthers live in a no man’s land in terms of vision and planning.  The win now and rebuilding all at the same time approach which has been the “plan” ever since Rhule.  

we should of rebuilt when Ron left.  We never committed to such

Also

2020 draft- Brown is the only 1 of 7 still on the roster

2021 draft- 4 of 11 still on the roster

2022 draft- Ickey the only 1 of 6 still on the roster

2023 draft still too early to tell.

      Be careful what you wish for

      Like that matters. That's the first thing. I suggested that it's probably better to let a QB sit and learn, and that's what I meant. Secondly, in what planet am I making excuses, my friend, or engaging in any mental gymnastics in Bryce Young's defense? As I have said, I don't care if he turns into Mighty Mouse, it's time for him to go. In my opinion, he's too short to be a successful QB in the NFL. I have seen enough. I'd rather trade him and take my chances with Hooker, at least he's more of a prototypical size and can actually see where and why he's throwing the ball.

      About that schedule.

      By ok2h8pep · Posted

      There is a scenario where our team comes out prepared to play football instead of shitting the bed for the first quarter. Every bad Bryce game seems to start with him looking incompetent - the OL looking incompetent - and the defense looking incompetent.  Boom, down 14 before we know what hit us. Imagine a world where we come prepared and play with a lead, and Bryce gets to fulfill his ceiling by managing a game instead of playing catch up. He's bad, but upon reflection he is not Clausen bad.  He can move the team down the field when he gets 4 - 5 seconds in a clean pocket against a soft zone.  I don't think Clausen could do that.

      You are literally naming almost entirely instances where they are sitting behind a well established if not star player that was already on the team. That's a different scenario entirely.  Listen, if you want to make all the mental gymnastics for excuses, have at it. I think the facts are clear, Bryce Young is not an NFL caliber player. Furthermore, no amount of pine time nor change of scenery is likely to change that.
