I like him on a personal level and I know he's very raw but when someone like Knecht is contributing on a meaningful level right away it is infuriating watching this team slog their way to 60 points at home. This was a comically low scoring game until the fourth quarter and that's with LaMelo dropping 44 points after dropping 50 within the last week.

So far I am not much impressed with the new front office.

And enough with this Mark Williams foolishness. Get that man on the court or put him on the block.

You're not wrong. As I said, the Frenchie was a luxury pick by a team that needed a more polished player. Hopefully the gamble works out in the long run.

Not extending Mann in the offseason was probably another mistake by the FO. He's going to be a lot more expensive to retain if he keeps playing like he was prior to getting injured when he comes back. They also need to trade Micic or cut him as he doesn't want to be here at all.

I agree about Williams too. He needs to be on the court or off the team.

I think Saluan will work out in the long run. He's very young but plays hard and obviously has talent. He's not even 1/4 of the way through his rookie season. Too soon to call him a bust. I was very unhappy with the pick but I'm going to be optimistic 

Not a bust at all agreed.  They probably avoided Knecht because of defense which he flat didn’t play at all at Tenn…but he scores the ball like a mad man.  I thought he would help us more now.

      FA Splash: Panthers sign Jaelan Phillips EDGE

      By PanthersATL · Posted

      From NFL reporter Matt Lombardo: The Carolina Panthers, at the time of signing, committed the most money in NFL history to a free agent pass rusher, plucking Jaelan Phillips from the Philadelphia Eagles, on a deal that includes $80 million fully guaranteed. Now in Carolina, Phillips is the centerpiece of an ascending defense that produced just 30 sacks while backing into the NFC Playoffs. Only eight edge rushers produced more pressures than Phillips’ 73 last season, which included 57 hurries, according to Pro Football Focus, which makes it easy to see why a Panthers organization that is looking to take the next step would pay a major premium at a premium position. In a division as wide open as the NFC South, Phillips and Derrick Brown are as formidable a duo up front as there is, certainly good enough to power a playoff push.   https://bsky.app/profile/mattlombardo.bsky.social/post/3mgnnj2hojk27

      Panthers salary cap strategy/status

      By PanthersATL · Posted

      Per NFL reporter Matt Lombardo, a lot of deals were "made in a steakhouse over the last few weeks" The deals that drop at 12:01 are the ones that were never really in doubt. They’re the marriages that had been quietly arranged for weeks. Meanwhile, the genuinely contested signings, the ones where multiple teams are legitimately competing for the same player, those tend to resolve in the days between tampering and the official start of the new league year on Wednesday. That’s why you see the most coveted players “agreeing to terms” today, and by Wednesday both players and teams are shopping for ideal fits to fill needs and the best opportunities rather than making decisions built largely on securing a market-setting bag. https://bsky.app/profile/mattlombardo.bsky.social/post/3mgn4nawxmc2o
