I think gettlemsn is comfortable drafting that he doesn't need to bring in any giants fa's. I would like to take a minute to say I'm glad we have him here cuz I still think victor Cruz was the best sleeper pick up in years.

Can Gettleman take any credit for Cruz? They obviously didn't think highly enough of him to actually draft him. While someone must have been intrigued for them to sign him, if they had any clue how good he would be I have to believe they would have actually drafted him. I've seen people try to credit Ross as well with Cruz, but it seems to be it's more good fortune than any particular front office brilliance.

one thing to consider is that one of gentleman's strengths throughout his career is in finding overlooked but very talented players.

i would expect to see some very 'wtf' type player pickups as well as a whole lot of bitching until we see that he actually knows what he's doing.

well, I know one thing we didn't and haven't hit like that. If he sees something like that in another player then I will be cool with it. The chance of that type of hit is why I'm glad he is here.

      Is Charlotte the worst sports city right now?

      By Davidson Deac II · Posted

      Nfl leaders don't look at the population of just the city itself.  Charlotte has three of the top fifty combined statistical areas within a 1 to 1.5 hour drive.  Charlotte, Greensboro/WS/High Point, and Greenville Spartanburg.  Those three statistical areas include nearly 7 million people.  Other than Raleigh, the only one in the top fifty within an hour and half of raleigh is Greensboro.  So only about 4-5 million people.  Charlotte has many more people to draw from.   Also, many of the surrounding communities for Raleigh are not native born.  If memory serves, many still refer to Cary as Containment area for relocated Yankees.  One of the reasons the Canes do so well is a significant portion of the population are people who moved from Northern Areas.  Would that population translate into support for a NFL team?  Hard to say, but I see a tremendous amount of Giants/Jets jerseys in the triangle when I forced to endure the crazy traffic on 40/85.
