So the Panthers have signed Jeremy Shockey, a guy most of us would never have expected during the Fox era.

Suppose that's not the only "unexpected" move this offseason.

How would you feel if, for example, the Panthers made a move for someone like...Randy Moss?

Well with randy .. i wouldn't be too thrilled with it giving how hes lost that "it" factor teams are comfortable with putting number 2's on him now because if he cant catch it in stride he just gives up , but on the defensive side to see a top corner brought in or making a trade for a guard on offense or something like that .. that would be a change to be excited over

I'm all for anything but the "it is what it is" status quo BS we've gotten from Fox the last 4 years or so.

That pertains to any moves they could possibly make, even a new on field photographer if necessary. :eek:

Moss though? Not sure if that's the kind of risk I'd like to see them take.

I have no problem with them bringing in players that we wouldn't have necessarily seen in the Fox era... but no Moss or TO please. This team needs an "edge" to it that we haven't had in a while...

and this; especially the bolded. Don't want Moss...he's pretty much done in this league. He's washed up

      So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.

      Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.
