NE got Ocho Cinco for a 5th round pick in 2012, and a 6th round pick in 2013...

I have to think that we could have done better.

Smitty and him are boys... I was really upset yesterday and then shortly after we traded for Olsen.

Can't help but think we missed a golden opportunity here..

Oh well

Does it irk me that NE got him for peanuts? Yeah but they do that all the time. Plus, I think Belicheck may have finally pushed his luck too much with him and Haynesworthless.

Would I have wanted us to go after him? Fug no! He's a pain in the ass who is well past his prime. When he was at the top of his game, his antics were charming in a way. Now they are just sad and desperate.

All I'm gonna say is if the Panthers sign a big name wide out like Edwards, Sims-Walker etc.. don't expect Gettis and LaFell to amount to anything because reps and experience will only be taken away from them. Everyone on this board loves LaFell and Gettis enough to where they were happy that neither of them were traded for Olsen, but when it comes to them playing it seems as if no one is confident in their abilities. Have a little faith. Smith, Gettis, LaFell, Edwards, and Pilares is a solid young group of wide outs. In my opinion that is at least a top 15 wide receiving corp.

      Jared Feinberg's Falcons v Panthers film breakdown

      By TheSpecialJuan · Posted

      The Panthers did a great job of countering the Falcons' pass rush in the run game. They utilized veteran wideout David Moore, a good run blocker on the perimeter, as the motion man to help with crack-toss plays and trap blocks. It was also interesting to see more Sean McVay wide zone concepts in Canales’ version, especially with the “insert” concept that is a table in these systems.   Second-year cornerback Chau Smith-Wade didn’t come out of the gates hot, but settled in and put forth a fine performance. His spacing in zone coverage tightened up and it began to have an impact later on—like on his pick-six of quarterback Michael Penix Jr. He also showcased good matching capabilities while having some impressive man reps and tackles in space. You have to appreciate how well Ejiro Evero’s defense rallied to the football. Some runs that would, in the past, go for chunk yardage were contained. Tackling was improved on all three levels of the field. Wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan was once again the leader in receiving yards (48) on Sunday, but he struggled away from the box score with a couple of drops. As head coach Dave Canales noted Monday afternoon, the Falcons did a great job staying in phases on McMillan, especially at the top of routes. Rookie safety Lathan Ransom showed more flashes of control as a tackler. He continues to show the physicality that is needed in Evero’s defense while having the athleticism and downhill burst to click and close sideline to sideline or north/south. https://pantherswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/panthers/2025/09/23/panthers-film-review-falcons-week-3/86308214007/

      Something positive (defense)

      By Jay Roosevelt · Posted

      Horn + Jackson + Smith-Wade might be the best CB trio we've had in a minute.

      I think we would have had a good shot. I believe at the time we had already traded for the first overall pick, so Baltimore could have then immediately get whatever replacement they wanted for Lamar in the draft or trade for someone else. I still am baffled we were one of the teams that put out that ridiculous statement about not pursuing Lamar.   Yeah, let’s not trade for the franchise carrying, mvp winning, all pro top 5 qb in league to help take this franchise higher places. They should have at least tried. They were willing to go all in on Watson but not Lamar, I don’t understand Tepper.
