He isn't going to be a Hall Of Fame guy for the NFL but there is no reason for him to not be celebrated as the greatest WR this organization has ever had. It seems like WR is now the hardest position to get into the HOF on and he likely won't put up the numbers when all is said and done that TO, Randy Moss, Andre Johnson, Reggie Wayne, Marvin Harisson, Chad OchoCinco, Colston will pass his numbers, among others like D.Jackson and so on. It is hard to make a case for a guy when he was the fourth or fifth best receiver of his era. Boldin will have better numbers when all is said and done and they aren't far apart in age and years played.

It just seems like at best, Smith has a slim chance to go into the hall.

I agree 100% but I'll take it even further, I think he's the greatest football player this organization has ever had. Hopefully we celebrate his greatness after his career is done. Steve Smith doesnt just represent himself, he represents this franchise, he represents this city and this region. He represents us, he represents this era and all the good and bad times we've shared in it. Steve Smith IS the Carolina Panthers.

I like this qoute- I agree....I hope they do something to honor all of his services. he really does deserve it. out of all the bad, he still is and has been a bright spot.

5th best if you go by stats. As a player Smith>Wayne, Harrison,and OchoCinco, and = Andre.

      TBH, these are the kind of players that get weeded out of professional sports pretty quickly. Also, CMC is not that guy. There is zero indication that he isn't competitive.

      Teddy Checkdown in trouble

      I like the free agency. It actually helps basically all schools across the board. Pretty much only ancient HC's and/or HC's that haven't been able to adjust have been complaining about the free agency. Your fortunes can be made or broken every offseason. It's not like before where a bad recruiting class or two meant multiyear purgatory.  I will never understand all the bellyaching about the NIL. If you want to talk about what ruined college athletics, it has been naked greed. Conference expansions for TV revenue, ever skyrocketing AD and facilities costs and now the attempts to permanently ruin the postseasons(football and basketball).  All the kids did was get a very well deserved piece of a very, very, VERY broken pie.

      Scourton isn't signed (& apparently it's a thing)

      Nobody is saying they don't count against the cap, because yes, they technically do count against the cap as it's money the team is paying and it needs to be accounted for. But what you're not grasping it seems is that if a player gets $10 million guaranteed in their contract, whether they get literally $0 as a signing bonus or $8 million as a signing bonus, it doesn't change the overall cap hit of the contract, because cap hits are about the guaranteed money, not how much is paid up front. The only thing that how much is paid up front changes, is how the cap hit can be spread out amongst the years. So yes, technically there could end up being a slightly bigger cap hit in year 3 and 4 due to a bigger signing bonus, but if that is the case, it also means there will be a lesser cap hit in years 1 and 2 than there would have been with a smaller bonus.  But over the length of the contract, the size of the signing bonus has literally zero affect on the overall cap hit of the contract, because THAT part of it is 100% about the guaranteed money and nothing else.
