Why didn't we make any moves?

We will wait till next year cut Williams and get nothing in return, its the Panther Way

Very possible, but that doesn't mean they didn't try. After all, the other team would have had to accept a high salary and/or DWill would have needed to restructure with the potential new team.

It takes two to tango.

No General Manager. Jesus, some of you need meds.

Need meds? I think some of us are fans of a team that is currently 1-6 and has the talent to be contending for the superbowl.

I think some of us are pissed off with the way the organization we love is being run and wanted to see any change at all!

The real question is, why the rest of you arn't? learned helplessness I guess........

I guess I am happy to see they were entertaining the idea.

i'd rather moves be made by the GM and HC that we will probably have coming in.

hurney tried building for the new coaching staff and what you have is the 2010 draft.

who do you trust to make moves? rivera? beane? lol

i'm thinking that sitting on their hands is the safest thing to do right now. i don't think i want them doing anything contractually until we have someone that has a clue what they're doing.

at any rate...did you see a flurry of activity by anyone? mike thomas heading from jaxville to detroit and talib heading from tampa to the pats was the other one. it's just not an avenue anyone really takes very much.

i'm not happy with the way things are, but i don't want some hack GM wannabe making some stupid moves just so fans think they're doing something.

Nothing ever happens at the NFL trade deadline besides Moss a few years ago. Nothing seriously ever happens, it's the most stale trade deadline of any sport. ESPN just needs something to hype.

Pats traded for A. Talib from the Bucs, but in general, you're right. Very little movement typically happens in season.

The season is lost. Nothing drastic is gonna change, what the fug are you talking about?

Why make moves when we haven't hired a long-term GM? Nothing will change until the off season, this isn't madde.

Every report I saw from contenders that potentially need help at running back (Packers, Cardinals, Broncos) said that they wanted to stick with who they had, likely because the options on the market (DeAngelo and Steven Jackson) at their current salaries and having to give up something of value weren't worthwhile. So it shouldn't be a surprise that DeAngelo is still here, nor should it be a surprise that we didn't dump Steve Smith for 15 cents on the dollar.

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
