and Philly won 6 in 2024 on the way to a Super Bowl - what is your point? Luck obviously always is an extremely important part of any pro sports (injuries, weather, travel, schedule, etc.)

We went 8-9... I'll leave it at that cause this really isn't the thread for it. We signed a really injured guy for a lot of money. Continue on Morgan and Tepper...

Has any other FA hit 100 million??

ugh, I don't believe so...

Oweh just signed a similar 4 year $100 million (68 guaranteed) again I would always look at the guaranteed, but yes another edge just signed something similar and Oweh isn't great against the run.

I was telling everyone this team would HAVE to overpay for anyone worthwhile because of who our franchise is and where we are located. 

Would've rather seen this position addressed in the draft for pennies on the dollar.  But I guess time will tell.

 

draft is very middling in terms of edge talent IMO

two of the tops edges have historically short arms

He was 97th in run defense snaps for edges with  (134).

So that’s 25 mill per for essentially a pure pass rusher. Jesse Minter said the key to unlocking Oweh in La was giving him freedom as a pass rusher. I knew right there we weren’t signing him. Evero gives no freedom

Agree.  It's a crap shoot either way. 

Just a lot less stressful / impactful when you're not betting $120 million on the dice roll.

respectfully i disagree

a draft pick is a dice roll

Phillips is a known excellent pash rusher who can defend the run and is only 26. chances like this happen so rarely

    • Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.   
    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying. 
    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
