I think this is the worst offseason in recent memory.

No, not the worst offseason for the Panthers. I actually think they are in decent shape.

I am talking the worst offseason for the fans. The season ended on a huge turd of a game, and little has been done to regain the excitement for the fans. Its just harder than normal to get pumped up for the upcoming season, more so than seasons past.

Things that would cure this football recession....

1. Peppers officially trade and Panthers get any first round pick.

2. Summer School starts in the end of May - serious QB competition is announced

Other than that, I can't think of much.

Help?

May not be much newswise, but the Panthers did have an individual workout of a college player. Per KFFL, they worked out safety Eric Johnson of William Jewell College.

A very basic bio can be found here: Eric Johnson

(He's 23, but his pic makes him look like he's pushing 30) :sosp:

Word has been that the Panthers were hoping to stockpile draft picks. Sadly, part of that strategy was a Lucas trade that didn't pan out.

There is still the hope of the Peppers trade, though I think no one should be on the edge of their seat for that one till it gets closer to draft day.

The annual league-wide free agency slowdown will come soon as teams begin to focus more on the draft. Thus, the dearth of news will be hitting everyone, not just us.

Best chance for news is likely the team snagging one of its own free agents like Mark Jones or Jason Kyle, but even those might be a while. There's also the possibility of a veteran pickup like Dwayne Robertson or Torry Holt.

Given that Robertson is one of the few names we've heard connected to the Panthers, I fear everyone will melt down if he signs elsewhere.

      Adam Schefter: Panthers getting trade calls for Andy Dalton

      By strato · Posted

      To kick this up, The Athletic has a really comprehensive piece out where pretty much all QB questions are addressed. It is worth seeing.  https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7083539/2026/03/04/starting-quarterback-projections-free-agency-draft/?source=user_shared_article I’m putting something specific here but it should have a thread or something. It is an extensive exercise.  This is a dense write up with a lot of column inches used, about the Jets and Murray and Reich, all this stuff.. then it goes to backup QB and there is Dalton.  I am pasting that part: As for Dalton, Reich is installing the offense he was trying to run in Carolina in 2023 before he got fired, and Dalton was with the Panthers then; he’s an ideal option as a veteran backup to replace Taylor. Reich said this about Dalton in 2023: “The way he's throwing the football, the way he works through progressions, the way he handles the operation. … Since day one (when) he walked in the door, I'm like, 'This guy is starter-worthy.' You guys know I've said that all along. He's, in my opinion, one of the best 32 quarterbacks in the world.” ——— That’s true love lol. I never heard any of this. Pretty crazy I think, considering how the year went.   Anyway the dream is not dead. .

      I’VE FOUND OUR WR3 (Rashid Shaheed)

      By Car123 · Posted

      The Seahawks traded for wide receiver/returner Rashid Shaheed at the trade deadline. He proved to be a key acquisition. Shaheed returned a punt and a kickoff for touchdowns in the regular season and had a 95-yard kickoff return in the postseason. Shaheed, though, is scheduled for free agency. So, the 12 games he played, including the postseason, might be the extent of his time in Seattle. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Shaheed and the Seahawks are not close to an extension, and the expectation is that the two-time Pro Bowler will hit free agency. Shaheed has 153 receptions for 2,243 yards and 12 touchdowns in his four-year career to go along with three punt return touchdowns and a kickoff return touchdown. He ranks 13th on PFT’s top-100 free agents. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/report-rashid-shaheed-appears-headed-to-free-agency
