Hangman officially leaves Buffalo.

Per WGR55 in Buffalo, he has left and headed home. Wow! This guy was a top target for Buffalo and I guess for some reason couldn't sign him. Hurney better get his agent on the phone pronto before he schedules more visits and see if we can get him back here.

I will say this, per buffalo's FA history...if a first day FA leaves, they dont' sign with the team. So apperantly something went south.

Maybe they didn't think he was good enough.

No, he was #2 from what I was told to be their new Center. Saturday was #1. What does it say when the new top target to start at center for you, after being a career backup, leaves.

Wow, things are much worse in Buffalo than people know apperantly. Oh well...maybe he will come back here.

I figure he is not going to commit to any one team unless he has explored his options. At 27 he is going to get one maybe 2 big paychecks. He needs to explore his options. I hope one of those is returning here if we will match the price. Of course starting is important. But so is winning. I wonder how much we want to keep him. We will find out shortly I suspect.

They are looking at Matt Birk.

Odd. Gantt is saying he never even made it :confused:

Hangartner hanging out

Panthers free agent Geoff Hangartner's trip to Buffalo hasn't gone as planned.

Mostly, because he hasn't gotten there yet.

Hangartner left from Austin, Tex., first thing this morning, and 12 hours later, was sitting in the airport in Chicago waiting for yet another connection attempt. He said he's already had two flights canceled, and isn't sure when or if he's getting there.

Once he arrives, expect the Bills to offer him a starting job and more money than the Panthers can match. Even if he doesn't sign there, it sounds like there are enough suitors to make his return here extremely unlikely.

    • Yes. Morgan and Canales are too far in to tank. They have to show progression. And to finish 5-12 or 6-11 after starting 4-3 will almost certainly get them fired. Hooker gives you very little chance to win.

    • WR Jonathan Mingo to the Cowboys Dallas Cowboys got: WR Jonathan Mingo, 2025 seventh-round pick Carolina Panthers got: 2025 fourth-round pick Trade date: Nov. 5 Original grade for the Cowboys: D+ New grade for the Cowboys: F Original grade for the Panthers: A New grade for the Panthers: A Sometimes trades seem inexplicable because we don't have all the information (see Johnson, Diontae). But sometimes a team simply made an inexplicable choice. That's the case here. At the time of this deal, the Cowboys were 3-5 and quarterback Dak Prescott had just suffered a hamstring injury that would eventually cost him the rest of the season. That doesn't prevent them from making a deadline deal, but the return should have been great. It wasn't. Mingo's numbers at the time of the trade were rough: 0.8 yards per route run over the first season and a half of his career and, at the time of the deal, an open score that would have ranked 110th out of 111 wide receivers had he played enough to qualify. It turns out those numbers were a sign of what was to come. Mingo managed five receptions for 46 yards ... over eight games with the Cowboys. He has been on injured reserve because of a knee injury and has yet to play this season. There's nothing wrong with taking a swing on a young player who hasn't lived up to his draft stock. It's just that the price was way too high. And that was especially true considering how little the second half of last season meant for Dallas. Carolina deserves credit for recognizing the value of the offer and cutting their losses -- getting a fourth- and seventh-round swap for their 2023 second-round pick was a gift.
