We need a slot guy.  I'm not giving up on Horn, but I don't want to put all our eggs in that basket hoping he's turns out to be the man.

I think we just need an all-around WR. Both T-Mac and Coker are effective in the slot. If we get another receiver that's effective on the outside and in the slot, we'll be all the better for it.

The only point of trading for Coleman seems to be to get rid of XL. Unless you really like Coleman. Who really likes Coleman? 
 

We are likely better off hoping they can make Legette into something that can at least contribute, and bring in more competition for that group from the outside. That approach has a better chance of getting some kind of return. IMO

The real benefit of trading XL is the addition by subtraction.  You lose that benefit if you get Keon Coleman back the other way. 

If you want to go with addition by subtraction, you are saying that no one should trade For him. More or less. 
Release him if it is that bad. I don’t think it is yet though. He should get a last chance to respond by committing himself in the offseason and coming into practices and camp and producing. At or near what is expected from a mid second rounder. Or third.

 It is kind of like Bryce, he will not ever live up to the cost of his acquisition.

To me the mistake is a blip compared to the magnitude of the Bryce mistake and I can’t be but so upset over it.  I am like, oh well it happens to every team.

That's the Panther way. Maybe he will be better next year!

How about we just dump XL in whatever way we can and avoid Keon Coleman? What is the point of taking one of the dumbest and least capable WR's in the NFL and replacing him with a guy that wants to play in the NFL about as much as XL?

Maybe shoot higher than Keon Coleman for an XL replacement.

That is a big HELL NO. As bad as XL was this season, at least he adds a dimension that the coaches can use for specific plays. Coleman is just as bad, yet adds zero diversity to our receiving corps. I’ll take the guy that at least cares enough to show up to meetings. Getting traded to a new team won’t change either of their work ethics.

At this point, the Bills would have to throw in a pick to wash their hands of Coleman. 

Coleman and a 3rd for XL? Sure. I don't want Coleman, cut him if you want, but pay us the tax of a decent pick and we can talk. 

They would probably want a 1st to take XL, in fairness. I would.

      Legette for Coleman?

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      IDK how we go from good player for good player trade suggestions to dumpster fire bust for dumpster fire bust trade suggestions. Even though Coleman is better, he has a littany of motivation and discipline issues. Do we think milquetoast Dave is gonna fix that??

      Recommended free agent targets from roppster report

      I am not worried about the contracts because any/all can be jettisoned in 2027 with minimal ramifications. I would like to land him because you rarely ever see an elite, 25 year old center hit free agency, this is a very weak center class and Mays is a bottom quarter starting center(love him as a utility IOL).  Ideally this offseason we solve center and draft a high caliber RT/LT to fill the gap for Ikey. Then next offseason, pending outcome of the rookie and Ikey's recovery you can jettison Hunt(VASTLY overpaid), make a determination on Ikey's ability to play(perhaps extend him on the franchise tag as a "prove it"), and let the Ikey/rookien situation dictate Moton. He can be extended on a LOWER cost deal or jettisoned if Ikey and the rookie can take the reigns. Either way, both OT's will need to be resolved, we need an actually starting caliber NFL center again and we need to get rid of one of these OG's. Hunt is the obvious choice as Lewis is substantially better across the board and cheaper.

      I’m just not impressed with these hires/openings

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      That's not a thing. If they can't find someone, they either aren't actually trying or it's a poisonous job and no one will.  Yes, plenty of them have gone with whom they wanted already. That's not really the point of the rule. It's to force teams to provide opportunities. It has worked well because coaches that wouldn't normally be given interviews are given that experience and teams have also been impressed enough to either offer them in the future or pass positive comments along to other NFL owners/front office personnel.  Also, we are over 20 years into the Rooney Rule. This isn't some new thing teams have to navigate.
