Just heard Mick Mixon at Lunch Rotary

He talked for 30 minutes at the Shelby Lunch Rotary meeting.

He didn't break that much new ground but did say that they are looking to upgrade at corner and on the interior defense saying that with 500 players being released, there will be some good guys to pick up. He talked about how Fox would play not to lose but this year the mentality was to bury the opponent. Said part of the reason we were going with Cam was because he had the best upside to become a dominating player.

On a personal note I found him very funny and engaging as a speaker. He had great stories and tells them very well. While he joked that the Panthers should have paid fans for what we put out on the field last year, he didn't offer to rebate my PSl money. He talked about richardson being back and his old self this past year. Said Jerry has colorful language and kids everyone quite a bit. Said JR came up to him a week or so ago and asked how he was doing. Mixon said fine. Then he said we are looking for a good season from the Panthers this year and hoped Mick was up to the challenge as well and didn't "@#$%" it up. They laughed and moved on. But it was a very good speech and actually better than he appears when I hear him on the radio.

Lots of folks seem to hate him here but my assessment of him just went up.

I think he is good commentary while you're actually watching the game. When I had to stream radio broadcast of it, he gave next to no detail about what was actually going on. "Williams gets the handoff." *pause* "Waiting for a flag..." *pause* "Touchdown!"

    • I would say that seems like an odd comment from Morgan, but at the same time it's almost impossible to find a college QB declaring for the draft to have less physical ability than BY so you can assume almost anyone you bring in would be your go to QB sneak/designed run guy. 
    • Gronk is the best TE of all time, but he also played with Brady. Clarke was great, but had Peyton and in an era TE's didn't make crazy money. Kittle is great, but the two times he's made the SB, he was still on his rookie contract for one, and the other the 49ers had Purdy on a cheap rookie deal which help them build the rest of the roster. So again, it's not about not wanting an elite TE, of course it would be nice.  But realistically, in today's NFL, unless that elite TE with a top end TE salary is on a team with a GOAT level QB and/or other serious cap savings (i.e. key players on rookie deals), then I think it's not a good use of cap space.  
    • This place was the poo pre tepper with tons of hilarious posters like phillyB. Joined in the 2000s during the 07 season and have been here bitching about this team since. but yeah its sadly been dying a slow death, every time I come to this site I am surprised its still up. I think the 2015 season was the absolute peak, the Panthers and this board especially just haven't "felt" the same since then. Igo should really sell the board since he clearly doesn't care anymore. Also, Reddit blows and the Bryce defenders on there need Jesus.
