No Will Allen

Panthers flirted with the idea of signing CB Will Allen, but then backed off.

SMH...

Ugh

He's old...I never really thought he would get much consideration. The coaching staff is looking for young guys who can mature and develop with our young team....

I get that, but if there was any position we could take a hit in age and trade it for ability to start for the year, it's CB.

[Jackofalltrades]

There are still a couple decent options out there...

[C47]

But then you're set back at the position next year when Allen leaves for a young guy you draft. If you get a young guy in this year and throw him to the wolves from the get go in a year that you don't expect to make a playoff run then maybe you've got a guy who's ready when Cam and the rest of our team is. This is a two and three year process not something happening over night people....

It shows we are searching :D

[KillerKat]

There were a couple decent ones but Allen was one of them, so that leaves just one.

[Marguide]

Crap, I wanted him.

That's okay. We are going to be the first team in NFL history to field a defensive backfield with 4 safeties.

Lito sheppard!!1!1!

Out of the younger guys I remember from yesterday, I would take Walter McFadden or Brandon Ghee, but it's a stretch to think they'd start (plus I think both of them were eligible for waivers and we didn't sign them, so they're prolly not on the radar either).

[Kevin Greene]

But the Huddle crack heads are Jonesing for a Corner Back.

Unless we're moving Pugh to CB, I really hope this is who we'll bring in if they officially decided against Allen... He was my top priority at CB.
