splash, no. signing players who 90% of us have never heard of, that we look up on wikipedia and find a highlight or two and subsequently overrate their potential and then shrug when 2/3rds of them are cut at the end of training camp, probably.

Where was the money when the Redskins signed every big name FA out there?

If a team wants to sign players and pay them whatever they can make it happen. It's just a maker of doing it and then dealing having to deal the consequences down the road. The good GM, and Hurney has been good at this, can balance this out to where those future cuts are already planned for.

I actually have a sneaking feeling that the Panthers might make a run for and sign Mario Williams. Hurney has never had a problem with paying as many as 3 dlineman big contracts and right now only C Johnson has one so...

Nope. The Panthers' MO has always to retain their own players first. Signing FA's are like a luxury to them. I think there's gonna be a big cut soon, someone like Davis or Otah. It's not that I wanna see them leave, but we're already over the cap. Someone's at least getting a big pay cut. At the very most, we sign someone like Garay who we can get for cheap.

The way it looks to me is there is a couple of free agents out there that actually want to come in and be part of Super Bowl Contender Team. Mario might like a 1st super bowl trophy.

Winners like winning and I fully believe there's a lot of folks believe The Panthers gonna be winning a lot. Money is great but when you got plenty, Fun trumps it every time and winning is FUN!!!!! So I won't be surprised if some folks want to join us in having Fun.

I just want to sit back and watch!!!!

      Jalen Ramsey

      By frankw · Posted

      On the surface all variables to be considered aside obviously I would love to have him. Situationally though this compares to when we acquired Stephon Gilmore. Ramsey will be 31 this fall and Gilmore was 31 when we acquired him. Ultimately it was a moot point because we weren't ready to compete for anything of note and Gilmore went elsewhere. Ultimately I see this playing out the same. As such I cannot envision any scenario where he does not go to a legit playoff contender.

      Below average? Seriously?? That is wild AF My man we ain't watching the same game... And I'm hard-pressed to believe you're watching the same film coaches are either if that is the take you honestly believe... I've been to almost every home game at BOA over the past 20 years... I've seen a lot of bad QB play over the past 7 years. Anybody that wasn't truly impressed by what Bryce did what the cast-offs he had to work with at the end of last year is delusional. His top 3 weapons were a 34 undrafted guy, a 7th round journeyman, and an UDFA rookie... seriously, what are we doing here??!! Some of these takes are beyond outlandish... You admitted yourself you're comparing Bryce to a guy you didn't even watch but are cherry picking stats for... So go back to your eyeballs and make it simple... how much NFL football have you watched my man?? Bc to me and my eyeball test, Bryce blew it out of the effing water down the stretch. What QBs are you watching playing so much better than him that you feel confident in saying "below average?" If you watched that and came away with anything else, we ain't watching the same thing... But beyond the eyeball test, every advanced metric in the book backs it up also... so again, what are you seeing that no one else is?? You think just anybody is going out there and dueling with Mahomes & Hurts with an almost comical inferior supporting cast and doing that? Whatever, to each their own, but it is wild to pull for a team where so many people feel compelled to crap on your QB after he just pulled maybe the greatest in-season turn around in league history and was playing by any eyeball test (for anyone that has watched an appreciable amount of NFL football) or even the advanced metrics for that matter.
