He specifically explained what his preferred nickname is last night. He said he will accept T-Mac but not Tet and his friends call him NALO and it's his brand. His Grandmother approves Tetairoa and Nalo so I'm using Nalo.

Lmaoo...funny. this sounds like the type of stuff everybody said we be a concern about shedeur.

He's not on the level of Sanders. Sanders is in his own Universe.

You rarely get to pick your own nickname though.  Others largely dictate that.  Otherwise, I'd just  prefer to be called Brad Pitt #2.

My history as a Panthers fan has told me that I don't know poo about player evaluation so I'll just hope for the best again.

I will say this, I have read and heard a ton about TMac's inability to get separation. Ted Ginn got a lot of separation, but it didn't really help because his hands were average. If TMac can capitalize when the ball comes his way, he might turn out ok. Not to mention that separation doesn't matter as much in the red zone where everyone is bunched up. I'd be happy to have a cheat code type WR in the end zone.

People that thought we were done at WR were lying to themselves.  We have needed a #1 WR since Moore left and this was a high need pick.

the real #1 spot in a Bryce Young O isn't going to be a big body on the outside though.  Which is why a discarded WR that the league pretty much said shouldn't be a starter anymore had a mini-rebirth.   We all knew where Bryce natually would go w/ the ball when we drafted him and are building a roster.....suited for Jake Delhomme.

It's not safe to assume the when a coach says he's happy with a particular position that that statement will exclude them from adding to it.

He didn't give it to himself. His friends gave it to him.

my history tells me that half the fun of being a fan is pretending that if I was GM we would be 17-0 if they just listened to whatever I make up off of watching random college kids play a random game or so.

I mean honestly looking back at the last 5 years or so I feel confident anyone on this message board would have had at least the same level of success lol

      MLB Devin Lloyd for WR Jalen Coker??

      By Captain Morgan · Posted

      starting to get interested here....   The Jaguars will continue the string of teams declining fifth-year options on off-ball linebackers. As the NFL’s option formula still groups all linebackers together, Devin Lloyd will become the latest ILB to see his not exercised. Lloyd is now in a contract year, ESPN.com’s Jeremy Fowler confirms. He would have been due a fully guaranteed $14.75MM had the Jaguars’ new regime signed off on his 2026 option. Lloyd is extension-eligible, so he could factor into the Jags’ long-term plans. No team has exercised a fifth-year option for an off-ball LB since the Buccaneers picked up Devin White‘s in 2022. That decision did not turn out well, as the All-Pro’s value cratered soon after. Over the past three offseasons, Patrick Queen, Kenneth Murray, Isaiah Simmons, Jordyn Brooks and Jamin Davis had seen their options declined. The Cardinals passed on Zaven Collins‘, despite moving him to the edge, and it should be expected the Packers will decline Quay Walker‘s ($14.75MM) by Thursday’s deadline. This wrinkle reminds of the guard market, as the price of franchise-tagging a player at that position is complicated due to all O-linemen being grouped together under this formula as well. Guards and ILBs have easier paths to free agency as a result, and Lloyd could end up as a key piece on next year’s market because of the Jags’ Wednesday decision. The Jags did pick up Travon Walker‘s fifth-year option, but the former No. 1 overall pick serves as an edge player. Lloyd has been a locked-in starter since his rookie year, but Trent Baalke‘s second pick since the Urban Meyer firing moved him to the top of the franchise’s personnel pyramid could use a quality contract year to display his value to both the Jags and other teams. Jacksonville traded up from No. 33 (via Tampa Bay) to acquire Lloyd at No. 27 overall. He has been a consistent producer despite the Jaguars continuing to change defensive coordinators. Lloyd, 26, has missed just three career games. He has made at least 113 tackles in each of his three seasons, working as a regular under Mike Caldwell and Ryan Nielsen. After making just two tackles for loss during his first two seasons combined, Lloyd — a former 27 overall pick out of Utah — made seven last season. The Jags hired Anthony Campanile to run their defense this year. Lloyd will undoubtedly be a key piece. Pro Football Focus has graded Lloyd as a top-15 linebacker in each of the past two seasons.   https://www.profootballrumors.com/2025/04/jaguars-to-decline-lb-devin-lloyds-fifth-year-option    all that said, I don't believe Dan and Dave will do this.  I think they are content on building with what we have, and letting young guys like Trevin grow.  kinda crazy to not trade an udfa for a 1st rounder who has performed.

      MLB Devin Lloyd for WR Jalen Coker??

      By Basbear · Posted

      I mean he's getting better and learning the MLB spot, right? Plus given the jags are out of the playoff picture, he rarly played the last game. I added 10 tackles.........(call the NFL cops!!!!) 2 sacks last year and 2 in my projections..... He had 8 and 7 PDs, I added 2 for 10. So I bumped some numbers a couple % and you feel that's crazy/insane thinking?? You know how bad posting a 0 is on the laws, besides we are using a rookie yr as well. How about we both agree on his 17 average listed and Ill let the 0s break the averages? That average line would 100% beat whatever coker is able to fight and claw for in the deeeeeeeep WR room. You know thats right.   What are your projections for Coker or lloyd in Panthers Uniforms, lets compare them!!
