Anybody else disgusted with Richardson?

Ok. I have try to hold off on judging. I have tried to keep a positive outlook. But it is becoming painfully obvious that the owners and lockout and CBA are priority now for Richardson, more so than fielding a playoff contender. We have not been under the radar in free agency , we have been nonexistent. We have watched several decent free agents go to other teams for very reasonable compensation. We have watched the Superbowl Champs from our division remain virtually intact and actually add pieces to their defense. Not to be a negative puke but I don't see anyway we contend next year. It makes it hard to even look forward to the season. And the worst thing is that with all the money JR has saved this year that he is I guess just going to sit on, we could have gotten better.

How does everyone else feel. Has anyone emailed front office or is there anyway to let Richardson know how you feel, not that he gives a shat.

It pisses me off, especially watching the Bobcats swing trade after trade until they got better and are now in playoffs. At least it shows the are trying to win.

nope. i'm actually quite happy with the way we are operating. We have a metric sh*tload of players to re-sign in the next two seasons and we have no idea how the new CBA is going to work out. This is smart. The only serious downgrade we've had is at DE. This is a good team. We need a receiver and some depth. That's about it.

i dont know if he is not trying to win, but this is the most inactive i have seen this fo with the amount of holes we have to fill. Even steve smith (the local panther god) said as of right now we are down. alex brown would have been an nice addition. antonio bryant, maybe even b marsh. i dont see us getting the same impact out of a rookie this year. we have set ourselves up so that we almost have to hit on every draft pick this year. this is where most of our depth and even some starters will have to come from. that is a scary position, especially after how much of a crap shoot the draft. is.

JR is the main reason we have a team in Charlotte....The man wants to win and has always spent the close to the maximum allowed under the salary cap. I don't fully understand what is going on this season - but I trust Richardson is doing what is best for the Panther's organization. It will be a long long time before I have anything negative to say about the man who brought the NFL to the Carolina's.

this will be a problem down the road i think. there is now way we keep all our young stars! beason, kalil, td otah, stewart, dwill, matt moore. someone will be gone in the next 2 years. funny that the message is that we want to lock up our young core but they know there is no way we lock up all these guys.

This reminds me of what Frank and Buck said the other day.

They said having played for Mr Richardson they know he is a man who is going to do whatever it takes to win. He is not cheap, and never will be. "Tanking" a season is not an option for him, ever. He didn't get to where he is by making bad decisions.

This coming from guys who have worked for JR and have both been vocal about the lack of activity.

      That's it. How do you feel about this draft class.

      By WUnderhill · Posted

      Love the Freeling pick even more after watching his pressers. Dude is sharp and definitely seems to have the right mentality. I loved hearing how personal he took having a bad game with a torn labrum and instead of seeing that as the reason for his bad game and not changing anything, it motivated him to work even harder. Such a great pick, we finally got our all pro level LT for the next decade and now we can move Ickey to RT or guard with no hurt feelings due to his injury. Second favorite pick is probably Brazzell. He said he false started on his 40 and it cost him probably 0.04 seconds, so he’s more of a 4.33 guy rather than 4.37. Really Randy Moss lite. I didn’t know anything about him prior to drafting him and first highlight reel I saw of him I immediately thought he looked like Moss. Then I saw the measurables and was like yep. Then I see that he’s drawn that comparison by many scouts and analysts. If he can add consistency and play to the level of his highlights every play then we got an incredible value.

      Round 1: The Carolina Panthers select OT Monroe Freeling (Georgia)

      By rebelrouser · Posted

      During his three years at UGA he only allowed 5 sacks. He is only 21 and is on an upward trajectory. He's a great athlete that was good basketball player in high-school.  His height (76% how is this only 76%???? these guys are giants now), hands (81%), span (99%), speed (96%), quickness (10 yd. 86%), and explosiveness (vert. 96%, broad 97%) are all outstanding.  When we took Freeling, Fano, Mauioga, Proctor, and Miller were all off the board so we could have drafted Iheanachor or Lomu instead or waited to the second or third round to take Bell, Tiernan or Barber or wait even longer.  A lot of these tackles (including the first two taken) project to right tackle or guard in the NFL and that's not what we needed now.  Freeling has some sloppiness to clean up in his run blocking, but he's young and getting better.  We can let him get experience behind Walker and Moton knowing if he has to replace one of the two this year, his pass blocking won't get Bryce killed. Icky's not coming back from that injury as a nfl starting left tackle and Moton is in the twilight of his career.  If Walker has a great year, we will have to pay him a lot and if he is medicore we would want to let him walk.  Getting a LT on a rookie contract is going to help a lot with the cap.

      It was cool but they have done this at least in recent years unless I am imagining it
