Another 1 yr deal suggestion for poos and giggles...


CRA

Recommended Posts

Now this is a one year deal I would be all for, but it's also a pipe dream....

Maybe...that IMO is what Gettlemen was suggesting or hinting at though he liked.

Seymour at this point is only probably looking at a 1 yr deal and shouldn't be that expensive bc he isn't an every down player at this point. He is from Columbia.....son I think down the road about to play at GA.

....granted, any FA moves we could make would be dependent on Gettlemen creating more room

Seymour would be a nice stop gap, 1-year deal type, especially if Canty and Dwan sign elsewhere. Like CRA mentioned he's from the Columbia area and his son, Devondre, lives in a suburb of Atlanta and will be a freshman OL at UGA next year. Might be a draw for him to come to Carolina.

We'd still need a NT type as well. I've been on the Sammie Hill bandwagon for a while. Also like Pat Sims, who would probably come cheap since he's coming off injury and wasn't an every down starter in Cincy but effective against the run.

I swear every one of these threads has to do with the player living in the Carolina's at some point.

Well, we can't point to our great history or winning tradition as the "little something" that could help attract a someone....

Basically it will come down to money, having no other option or location for a older FA vet...

Money is 9 times out of 10 gonna be the biggest draw but playing in a region where you've grown up, still have family, property, etc. can be a big selling point to FAs, especially for older players.

The metro Charlotte area is a great area to buy nice real estate at a great rate, especially compared to other major NFL cities. There are a lot of athletes/celebs that have off-season homes in the area.

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
