Just hang in there...

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?

[Munkey]

March Madness is good for a few weeks. Best postseason there is.

[Zod]

Yep...and after that it's a big fat nothing until preseason games in August. I can't stand baseball.

Not much to be happy about this year. Pretty bad all around, other than the fact that we had a 12-4 season. However if history repeats itself, we will not be so good this year.....so thats shitty as well...

ugh.

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.
