Please Hurney, if you sign one guy, sign Brandon Carr.

I can't stress this enough we need one more CB to start opposite of Gamble. As I've stated before time and time again. This position has to be addressed this off season.

The Chiefs have signed Routt, CB let go by the Raiders. Read all about it here. What stood out to me was this.

The signing should give the Chiefs leverage with free-agent-to-be CB Brandon Carr.

Meaning? Carr will probably test the market. What teams need a CB as bad as we do?

Tampa

Detroit

Dallas

St. Louis

About the only ones that I can think of. Luckily there are several good FA CB's that are testing the market. Tampa has a high pick, which means Claiborne will be their target. (Sad Face)

Carr is 26, he's young and is a very very, very good corner. If we sign him, draft a DT with our first, get a FS in the second. I like our chances.

Thoughts?

Killerkat pretty much said what I wanted to.

Cut some people, restructure contracts, we can pick up one key free agent, maybe two. Especially if they load their money towards the end of the contract.

We're over the cap right now so restructuring/cutting probably just gets us breaking even. I'd rather just make sure we are in a healthy cap situation. The team has stated over and over again that they don't want to sign big name guys.

      Darin Gantt: Inside the Panthers draft room

      I don't go in for the draft crush stuff because it usually just ends up in people going off the deep end for "their guy". Surprisingly our OL staff has been pretty impressive the last few years. Don't see any point to be pessimistic about Freeling until we get to see him with some development under his belt in the summer. Either way for the long term the most logical reasoning dictates we made the most sensible investment with the pick given the plethora of circumstances that has revolved around our OL for years now.

      Jake's elbow, or the Kasay out of bounds kick in the Super Bowl.   Luke's first concussion. The dirty hit on Cam in the Super Bowl. If he's going back in time, just pick up Julius Peppers from right before  he headed off to Chicago and bring him to this week, and set him back into the Panthers lineup as a young man again.

      Bain is a beast. I won't deny it. I mentioned it in another thread, but one of Mesidor's sacks was only because Bain shoved Mesidor's body at the quarterback like he was bowling with him. I have never seen anything like it. I hate that the Bucs drafted him. That being said, Bain has to be perfect in order to compete week to week. He plays a high contact position in a game where the most athletic and lengthy have the advantage. I think he will still be a force, but his impact can be minimalized with right blockers and schemes. Freeling has the opposite problem. He's a long limbed, athletic puppy. He has ALL of the advantages physically. He just needs to add strength to his body and improve his technique. In two seasons, Freeling could end up being regarded as one of the best LTs, if not THE best in the game. That's where his potential is. Both have the potential to boom (Freeling's ceiling is much higher though), but Bain has the higher probability to bust. Just looking at it logically.
