Who will the Panthers bring in to help on offense?

[jarhead]

I know we have Cam but please someone tell me what are some other players other than Shockey we can bring in on offense. I think if they give Chud a few weapons he will make some things happen.

[CAVSS]

B. Edwards

One or two O-line depth type guys.

[Stroupe-a-loop]

We could do a Vincent Jackson for Steve Smith swap of disgruntled receivers. Some offensive linemen to give that unit depth and five legitimate starters. And maybe upgrade at fullback as Fiametta hasn't dominated.

i don't know about who they will bring in but these guys are entirely possible and likely.

sidney rice

malcom floyd

braylon edwards

lance moore

more likely one of the top three. chud has experience with floyd and edwards. rice is a local boy. all three fit the mold of the big receiver that has been used a lot by chud/norv turner.

i'd also be looking at top OG candidates and we may also go after a top RT as well, depending on how well otah is doing.

i don't see much past that, mainly because not much is needed. i have very little doubt that richardson will open up the purse strings. rivera and chud are going to be able to get the guys they want.

FB won't play a bigr role like it did with fox. i don't see us using more than one back in the backfield much at all.

I'm talking about somebody to compete with or replace Fiametta. I doubt we'll keep two, but fullback was an important position for Chud when his offense worked. I think a lot of people just remember the big passing plays that year, but they had a lot of success running the ball out of an I formation with Vickers and Jamal Lewis during the season.

I think we will get a new WR too but I think we are gonna lose Smith so at best that will be a wash.

There are ways to add to a roster and improve the talent on a roster without exchanging players though and it can come from things like growing up and taking advantage of more experience, getting a coach anxious to make a name for himself, getting our players back healthy, or having them work in a system that suits them better.

I don't see big splashes on O.

[Lumps]

If we can land Coefield, V Jackson and a nice vet QB I will be very happy. CB would be nice but seems only superstars FAs that are worth anything Panthers never sign them, who knows though with all the money JR saved and players he cut it's probably possible to sign them all.

Panthers need to resign before doing anything in FA IMO.

get sidney rice

I agree I see FA being use more for Def. not O. Maybe a WR if Smith is gone and a vet QB. But most of FA money will be spent on resigning our core players and Def upgrades at DT and CB.

[jarhead]

I would not be surprised to see Floyd.

[Razzy]

This is going to be such an insane FA market. The CBA gets signed and 5 minutes later it's a bidding frenzy. Teams will want to sign their target FAs ASAP, especially if the lockout doesn't end soon.

[jtnc]

They say Plaxico is bound to be snapped up by the Eagles or Jets, cause he probably wants to be close to home. I wish we could get him, a good FA WR is hard to find.
