Luke just missed the team... London Fletcher got the last ILB with 7 votes, while Luke was the 1st one out with 5 votes.

Tolbert and CJ were the only other Panthers receiving a vote

Also recieving a vote was former Panther Reggie Nelson.

People like to say ALL-PRO is better than Pro Bowl because Writer vote>fan vote. However the favoritism shown by writers is just as biased if not more. Tony Gonzalez had equal numbers to all the other frontrunning TEs and he ran away with the vote. Probably because he gives good interviews, is a vet, likable guy, etc....

Or maybe it's because gonzalez is the only one who is actually on a good team. When it comes to awards, when all else is similar go with the winner.

    • After some of the calls last year probably won't see much of a drop off 
    • https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/48344034/nfl-begin-hiring-replacement-officials-given-state-negotiations-nfl-referees-association   Honestly fug these refs and their union. Resisting changes that would actually incentivize good performance and not seniority based systems. What a bunch of donkeys. Hope the replacements straight up take their jobs and never give them back. Sick of watching refs script games with no repercussions.
    • Donovan seems like highest risk to me. Lloyd and May have already established relationships with all these kids. There’s probably guys hitting the portal that they recruited from HS. And then there’s the possibility of transferring their own guys from their current teams. They’ve also been recruiting the HS kids for like the next 5 years already. Look at the Iowa coach who hit the ground running by transferring all his guys from his D2 program. Or going across sports to Cignetti transferring all his JMU guys year one then building off that to a national title year 2. Donovan is starting from square one having been in the NBA so long and he’s already 60. So you’re potentially punting year 1 for a guy you are just hoping to be a 10 year hire while you figure out how to actually develop your next home grown 20yr guy. That’s 1/10th of the time you have him, more or less at best. The hope would be that he would find some high level assistants who have been working the college recruiting trails already, but then are you giving up his ideal staff just to get a foothold in recruiting and transfers. Think Belichick year one was bad? Imagine how much worse it would be without Steve Belichicks transfer portal pulls. Hoping Mays or Lloyd are all they’re cracked up to be.
