Jordan Gross, a better Panther


Kevin Greene

Recommended Posts

Let's not forget Jordan Gross is in the exact same position as Julius Peppers is. An URFA who could be Franchise tagged and indeed was last year by the Panthers. I don't recall any announcements from Gross at the end of the season in 2007 that he was stomping his feet and leaving. Just came to work this year and did his job.

It would not surprise me at all if he signs a contract early and allows the Panthers to Franchise and trade you know who.

Kudos to Jordan for doing his business in a classy manner (so far). :thumbsup:

Jordan has at least acted like he would prefer to stay here. The question is, how much will it cost us? If I remember correctly there were some issues last year as to whether he was worth top left tackle money as he was playing right tackle. This year he was solid at left tackle, earning pro bowl and all pro designations. I think he'll stay here. But, this is business season, and he will demand a lot of cash this year. The team has worked hard, and spent a lot (this year's first round pick) to solidify that o-line. It would be a huge loss if he were to go.

    • Jalon Walker not looking like a bust? That can't be right. 
    • To be fair. Our GM is the assistent of the worst GM in NFL history.  We pay trillions of dollars on the Oline and cant pass protect or run.  We pay trllions of dollars on the D-dine and cant pass rush.  We cant draft. We are a bad team. With a bad owner and really bad management.     
    • Stud: WR Tetairoa McMillan In the midst of all the incompetence and mediocrity, there's one shining hope for the future of this franchise. Rookie wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan led the team with six catches and 100 receiving yards. He also had an extremely impressive one-handed catch wiped out becaue he couldn't quite stay in-bounds. McMillan is a bit slower, but there are flashes of some Julio Jones in his game. His route running and YAC ability are both far better than they were advertised coming out of the draft.   Or, you know, exactly what anyone who watched enough of his tape would have known.   Honestly, our Arizona board could never understand this knock on him in the pre-draft process, because we all knew it wasn't true.  And sure, we're fans who watched all his games, but you'd think the experts who supposedly watch all the snaps of these type of prospects would have been seeing it too, it was glaringly obvious to us. Seriously, how many times did I say here that he could run every route needed?  How many times did I talk about his surprisingly good run after catch ability for someone his size?  How he wasn't a burner, but he was amazingly smooth for a 6'5" WR? As I've said, only 2 players from Arizona, both football and basketball, have I ever felt they were 1 million percent can't miss stars in the pros.  T-Mac and Gronkowski, that's it.  One is the greatest TE in NFL history, the other is about to take Smitty's mantle as the Panthers WR GOAT when all is said and done.
