Goedert back to Philly.

Njoku out there lurking still…..

I had a feeling that would end up being the case. Probably a short term deal.  Once the next one expires Philly will likely move on.  Goedert is still in his prime, productive and on a playoff caliber team.  It made sense for both sides.  Him coming here was a pipe dream. *sigh* Oh, well...

Trey Lance back to the Chargers on a 1-year deal. Maybe, just maybe we will take the backup QB position a little more serious next offseason than Kenny Pickett.

Goerdert's is also a 1-year deal. Again, maybe we can get this right in 12 months.

Goerdert's arms are too short for the current staff. It's why they aren't looking at sediq either.

Production is production. That should trump one substandard physical metric. Plenty of players do well with so-called substandard measurements/tests in a certain area.  I remember when we passed on Slater because his arms were to short.  All he did was dominate future NFL Ends in college, but the staff couldn't overlook those stubs for arms.

I assume this is sarcasm, but it's too subtle to be certain

It wasn't sarcasm at all, the Panthers scouting requirements for TE's are similar to the ones they use for OL as far as height and arm length are concerned. 100% true. 

 

It's why I've been surprised that they've kept Tremble since the new staff got into place. They'll take a chance on guys later in the draft with shorter arms but if it's going to be a big contract or a high draft pick, expect them to follow the guidelines that the beat reporters have been mentioning because of fan interest in Sediq.

They don't have guidelines for hand size for the backup QB.

Goedert has 34" arms. That's elite for the position, and far exceeds the arm length of any tight end on our roster. This is why I thought it was sarcasm.

      OFFICIAL 2026 Undrafted Free Agent Thread

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      I would say that seems like an odd comment from Morgan, but at the same time it's almost impossible to find a college QB declaring for the draft to have less physical ability than BY so you can assume almost anyone you bring in would be your go to QB sneak/designed run guy.

      Time to Sign David Njoku

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Gronk is the best TE of all time, but he also played with Brady. Clarke was great, but had Peyton and in an era TE's didn't make crazy money. Kittle is great, but the two times he's made the SB, he was still on his rookie contract for one, and the other the 49ers had Purdy on a cheap rookie deal which help them build the rest of the roster. So again, it's not about not wanting an elite TE, of course it would be nice.  But realistically, in today's NFL, unless that elite TE with a top end TE salary is on a team with a GOAT level QB and/or other serious cap savings (i.e. key players on rookie deals), then I think it's not a good use of cap space.

      This place was the poo pre tepper with tons of hilarious posters like phillyB. Joined in the 2000s during the 07 season and have been here bitching about this team since. but yeah its sadly been dying a slow death, every time I come to this site I am surprised its still up. I think the 2015 season was the absolute peak, the Panthers and this board especially just haven't "felt" the same since then. Igo should really sell the board since he clearly doesn't care anymore. Also, Reddit blows and the Bryce defenders on there need Jesus.
