Eric Moore

[Proudiddy]

I thought this guy was just a throw in before. I remember when we had signed him, I think as a future contracts guy... Thought nothing of it, just another scrub to take up space for TC.

THEN, I saw him play in the pre-season game. When I first saw that ugly #66 on a defensive lineman, I thought, "Great, we're scraping the bottom of the barrel now, here come the bums."

This guy blew me away. He was all over the place making plays. He looked athletic and explosive, and on top of that he's pretty similar to Hardy in terms of their build. He really impressed me, and when I went to google him while I wrote this, I saw this article:

I know he was playing against 2nd and 3rd stringers, but he looked like a beast. I had no idea he was 29 either, it's unbelievable the way he looked the other night that he hasn't stuck with a team yet. He's also out of Florida State, so he has the pedigree. Maybe another late-bloomer, Al Wallace?

Another one of Hurney's scrap heap finds who might be a diamond in the rough.

[Raskle]

But, but, but.. Hurney's soo stoopid!!1!

(To be honest though, he's smart enough to listen to the Panthers MVP in the FO, Don Gregory - which is what a smart GM should always try and do!)

He looked great in PS1. I'm hopeful that he will look great in PS2 also.

[Zod]

Won't make the team.

Well, playing line for the Noles is not exactly "pedigree."

[Raskle]

Won't make the team.

Any reasons why?

Is this something you've heard from sources or just stirring the pot up again for fun? I've seen ya do both

Cause we're keeping 5 DTs most likely and Norwood is a DE/OLB so we already have 5 DEs.

You're right, but until we see how EB pans out I'll hold onto hope and speak of them highly... At the least their guys are big athletes, DLs, not so much. But, I'm hoping we got a couple of the good ones.

[Raskle]

This may be true, but there's nothing to say he can't outperform and become one of these five. Plus Norwood could be lumped into our LB corps, as we're pretty depleted at this stage of the game.

I was wondering mainly if Zod had heard any "whispers" or something.

[Zod]

Nah, no whispers, but seen this episode before. Can anyone name the DT preseason studs of the past few years that did not make the team?
