I'm ready for a Carolina qb to take the starting job and run with it for the rest of his career. I know that is rare in the nfl nowadays but it would be nice to see. I will give it to Jake, he lasted longer than I thought he would, although the last couple of years he should have been riding the bench until his contract was up, lol. Very good team leader though, I thought.

I really don't care which qb is given the starting job this year. I figure it will be Matt's but who knows, Clausen may surprise us his rookie year and take over. I'm sure the MM camp would just hate that, lol. Not sure why though, you'd think Panthers fans would care less about which guy gets the starting job, and more about the team winning. Guess winning isn't as important than being right.

Which ever is fine with me though, just win!

Not sure on the depth of receivers to throw to?? Teams are just going to shut down our running game if all we have is Steve Smith for them to double up on. Not sure of the rookie Lafell. Anyone out there in free agency worth making a difference for the Panthers?

Don't get offended if people leave sarcastic remarks to this. It's a good first post but people might give you a ribbing since it's nothing that hasn't been disscussed before.

We aren't going to be signing any FAs as we have a very tight budget. A lot of our own guys need to be resigned next year and the labor uncertainties means JR has tightened his belt.

We have 3 WRs in this years draft so odds are we should have a hit somewhere. Maybe 4th time will be the charm with jarrett. Wallace wright is a ST guy.

Those 5 guys and smitty are our stable of WRs look at them and pick a favorite because we aren't signing anybody.

Actually, I don't see us taking anymore WR's in FA. I'm pretty sure the Panthers coaching staff has all the recievers it want's for now(we currently have 11 WR's on the roster) and granted all of them save for Smitty are unproven, believe it or not there are some pretty talented unknowns among the other 10.

They seem to be putting in alot of work with Armanti Edwards (Smitty's supposedly taking time with him and helping him learn the rope's) and obviously we're hoping LaFell and Gettis will work out and develop into something worth a sh*t. If not, young undrafted FA's we've already picked up such as Trent Guy(Louisville) and Oliver Young out of South Carolina State may just be hungry enough to show up to training camp and show some of our drafted WR's how it's done and possibly take somebodies job. And hell we've still got Dexter Jackson, Wallace Wright, Kenny Moore, Charly Martin, and...shudder... Dwayne Jarrett. While we can't keep all 11, I feel sure the staff will retain the best 6 or so, on the active roster.

I'm confident that there is at least a couple of quality recievers among our sh*tload of young unproven guy's, we'll just have to wait and see which one's show up wanting it more! To me that's one of the great thing's about this "youth movement", all of these guy's have a chance to make a name for themselves amongst our abomination of a WR depth chart, and you better believe all of these young guy's are gonna be scrappin tooth and nail with Dwayne Jarrett, Kenny Moore and Charly Martin (aka "White Chocolate") for their job's come August camptime...

Competition, it's a GREAT thing!!!

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      By TheSpecialJuan · Posted

      Jeremy Fowler draft intel on the Panthers: “Carolina was high on Proctor. If he somehow slipped to 19, he was a viable option.” “Caleb Lomu was on the Panthers short list too.” “Panthers weren’t totally comfortable with Stowers there at 49.”   https://x.com/panthersontap/status/2049827264972353727?s=46&t=xeIgh_-Vr2aKxBkBJdfnKA

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      No saying he mostly sucks is saying that he doesn’t suck the minority of the time.   Like if he took 17 tests and had a couple of really good showings and a handful of pretty good scores sprinkled in among the typical sub par results.   Like a golfer who went out and shot an 89.  There will be some real nice shots sprinkled in there but at the end of the day it is still 89.

      It's worth mentioning... Game 1: Oct 11 in Raleigh. 4-3 OT win with a complete starting lineup. Game 2: Dec 13 in Philly. 4-3 SO win without Jaccob Slavin. Game 3: Dec 14 in Raleigh. 3-2 SO win with a complete starting lineup. Game 4: Apr 13 in Philly. 3-2 SO loss with the AHL roster.  Those early season games were no indication of the Canes team that finished the season. Miller and Ehlers were still trying to figure things out, Nikishin was still a work in progress and the Stankoven line was just another line. Make no mistake, the Canes team Philly will see is nothing close to what they saw at any point in the season. If the top line starts producing, Freddie stays hot and the blue line does what it does, this could be a sweep as well.
