Panthers ask permission to speak to Ross

I don't like that the Jets are interested also. He would not have to move.

Frankly I dont even want a GM who is concerned about moving. If all these salespeople and business people in normal industries that make a small fraction of what a NFL GM makes can relocate, I dont see why a GM prospect cant do the same for millions and a chance at a team on the cusp of greatness and with a franchise QB for the next decade like us.

If he wants to stay in NYC you can't blame him. But it would concern me more if no other teams were interested in him.

That being said the Jets are a train wreck with what players to lure someone there with? Revis and......

If he comes to Carolina he already has the QB and two bookend DE's and Luke to build around. We do have some pretty damn good chips to bargain with.

I think we both agree if he wants a City like New York nothing is going to bring him to Carolina.

If he wants to win a Championship with Hurney's picks but take all the credit and not care that its Charlotte then I think they can sell him on the fact that the road to the Superbowl has already been halfway paved if he heads South.

This goes against every thing people have been saying about what a GM likes to do when he comes to a new team, and thats clean house and bring his own guy's.

I don't know if that would be the case here. So going to a team that has less would seem to be more to his liking.

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out. 
    • Hiring Shula & his Cam save us playbook.
    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
