31 years old..who cares..better than 31 games total experience of our current DT's

We need to get henderson, this FO needs to do something more than sit on their ass in fa and keep JR's pockets thick. Where did the Peppers money go..use that! We have a chance to have a special team here if we can get better on the DLine.

I think that is a lame excuse. We have a relatively young team already. How is one 31 year old going to be a difference? I say we sign him to a 2-3 year deal to help our DL while we wait for Tank and Irvin to come into their own.

I was honestly thinking the *exact* same thing. I mean, honestly, what's the big deal? He's played against some awesome running backs in his day, Chris Johnson, Edgerrin James, and Eddie George. Heck, he even played beside of Albert Haynesworth in College.

We need some experience in the line-up, and not all youth. This guy could definitely anchor the line.

if they get run over next year it will be all their fault. that's all i have to say. they let ma'ake and hollis both go, and they've made no effort to replace their size upfront except for louis leonard.

Sarcasm guys. I would love Henderson. And as for who cares? Richardson, period. Look at our roster and salaries. He doesn't fit the 'new' mold.

This guy has someone slap him in the face pregame to fire him up. How can you not want a DT who likes to come on the field pissed off and ready to kill?

Referenced in the other thread too.

Smitty would get that job if he signed here.

(which probably isn't likely)

Yeah, I asked Darin Gantt on Twitter if Carolina was looking at Henderson, and his reply?

Doesn't look that way. RT @beardsonfire Is there any chance Carolina goes after John Henderson, who is getting released from Jacksonville?

      Go after Shedeur this offseason.

      I think you misunderstand what I mean by "significantly better than Bryce Young." That gets you entry into the top 30 NFL starting QB's. Not sure if you have seen that group recently, but it's not a strong one the further down that list you go. Murray is a Tier 3 if not Tier 4 QB in my book.

      Here is where you are… for purely the sake of arguing with me you are willing to suggest the 2025 Saints RBs might not be better than the 2025 Panthers RBs lol Saints have the 28th ranked rush attack.  We are top 10.   The Saints haven’t had a 100 yard rusher the entire season.  We have seen franchise best performances in a franchise known for running the rock. and see above for what our OL is also clearly better than the Saints.  Hell, Canales being forced into some mashups has often made it even stronger at times

      I am not saying there isn't truth to that but the economics and reality of the NFL are producing that. It's very hard to justify taking a guy in the 1st round, shelving him for years, having to make a contract extension and THEN hoping it all turns out okay. Not to mention, imagine that scenario after what we traded for Bryce. One thing is for certain, the QB desperation has led to bad 1st round QB picks for 15+ years now. That ain't new.  I think we need to decide on Bryce's future this offseason and we will have to. In my eyes, picking up the 5th year option is the "all-in" move for a two year period. That means you are committed to him in the medium term. Not the move I would personally make.  No matter what the decision is, I have been vocal about needing to bring in multiple QB's to improve that QB room for when Bryce falters again. How about just overall improving your team depth so that when it doesn't pan out, you at least have options on the roster? I don't feel like that is too much to ask and it's a valid bet hedge.
