Did you see how badly it was swollen after their last playoff game?

Yeah, I did. That's what happens when you get beat down like a punching bag.

That doesn't change that Favre has NEVER liked training camp. I'm sure he wouldn't need surgery after months of resting it(unless there is a broken bone or he tore something, not sure didn't read the article..) He'll do anything to avoid those practices, and I don't blame him. He's old as hell, he needs to enter the season rested if he wants to last throughout the playoffs.

I will say this though, Favre is going to have a miserable life after football. All this is going to take a toll eventually.

They didn't take a QB in the draft. Anyone else think it might be wise to consider trading Pike if the price was right? (and heavily leaned in our favor)

If they wanted him don't you think they would drafted him. He made it to the 6th. When is the last time you heard of a rookie being traded (not on draft day) especially one drafted late? That was just a waste of a pick IMO. Brown made it to UDFA and he has far more potential.

Favre doesn't need training camp. the playbook was surgically implanted into his brain's memory core through a new process that beats neutrons down to tiny particles in the large Hadron Collider in Switzerland, then they use a laser to project the plays onto Brett Favre's brain... let it sit for a few days till all the plays are completely layered in there. and BOOM! no more training camp for Favre.

Boy that would be nice if that actually existed. Think about all the players that fail because they can't absorb a playbook.

      NFL Free Agency

      Absolutely. He just turned 27 a few days ago, so quite young. He and Moehrig would be quite the pairing.  I know we say this every year, but this FA period has A LOT of talent that will be switching uniforms. We were aggressive last year and have no doubt this time next week will have some studs on defense.

      DJ Moore traded again

      DJ Moore has always been a bit of an enigma. He came here young, flashed a ton of potential, but never truly grew into a real #1. He’s had a few good reasons, but yet to have a real monster season (outside of his first year with Chicago) We’re still waiting for him to blossom, but he will be 29 next season. I fear that it is too late for him at this point.

      I have considered free agency.  LT?  Either not good enough or too expensive.  Besides, this is a good OT draft.  (I would rather have a free agent, mind you, but the Panthers' reality suggests we can't do it without neglecting other positions).  What LTs are available in free agency, and what do you expect to pay?  Any Ickey-level OT is going to cost over $20m.   How much do we already have invested in our OL?  I get your point, but I do not think you can spend over $100m per on your OL. We have 2 guards and a right T who pull in about $75m per season.  We don't have a center yet.  Teams just don't let good LTs hit free agency, and when one does on rare occasion, he is expensive.  If you want a third of the Panther cap going to 5 Offensive Linemen, free agency is the way to go.  We still need S, ILB, Edge, WR, etc. I think we'd need more than Nijman--and I would understand if we went free agent for a T--but that is putting a TON of your cap at OL--so considering our situation, I do not see that option as preferable.  You may disagree. If I was not talking LT on our line and thinking about the cap, I would agree 100%.
