Send in the Clowney

[TheMaulClaw]

So the governing dynamics of the Panthers is set for a big change next year.  GMAN has been hoarding cap change.  We're not a good team this year for whatever reason (coaching, wr's, playcalling, general inconsistency).  We have a ton of expiring contracts.   Lord knows over half our team is going to be different next year.   Cam Newton, regardless of what anyone says, is not easily replaceable.  At least not with the crop of QBs  that will be at our disposal next year.    Hardy is wanting a mega deal.  It's debatable on whether or not he's earned that kind of money.   

 

Good news.  

 

If it just so happens that we maintain our trajectory of eating poo on game days (which sucks).   We might be in position to nab Clowney and let Hardy walk.  We'd have so much more cap space to handle all the contracts, and maybe shore up our offense.  

 

If we do suck for the rest of the year, I say let Hardy walk and send in the Clowney.

Clowney is starting to become a diva big time.  Dude is buying into the myth of his own legend.  Great prospect no doubt, but if we don't draft an OT or a WR in the 1st round next year, I'm gonna lose my mind.  We've been investing a ton into building the front seven of our defense while trying to rely on an over the hill formerly elite LT, an undrafted FA RT, and an over the hill formerly elite #1 WR surrounded by a bunch of also rans.  It's time to invest in protection and weapons for the QB we drafted #1 overall.  It's time to stop pretending like simply having Cam Newton on the roster is all we need to field an offense that can win games in the NFL.

We have enough on Defense as it has shown through the first 4 games, our Defense keeps us competitve...I want offensive weapons now.

you wouldn't be a gamecocks fan would you

[SCP]

Give me OL or give me death

[Swaggasaurus]

Clowney is already quitting and he doesn't have money yet...WR..Playmaker...the league protects them.

[carolina-chuck]

Trade down and add a 2nd.

Draft: (1st) Watkins/Lee/Evans, (2nd) Seantrel Henderson, (2nd) CB.

FA: Alterraun Verner, OL

[Guest Spider Monkey]

Clowney can't hold Peppers' jock strap. Or Johnson for that matter.

[CRA]

Clowney is lesser version of Peppers.

Except I think cares less and is lazier

We need Sammy Watkins

But Gettlemen will probably double down on the OL

Ideally, I'd prefer our top two picks to be WR and OT.  I don't care in which order.  We'll have to see how the draft and free agency shake out.

[Mother Grabber]

Can he play OL and DB?  If not, gtfo.

 

That's my new dream pick for our 1st rounder.  Someone who can be both a franchise LOT and shutdown corner.  Make it happen Dave!

I new LT isn't gonna do much if we don't address the sorry ass right side of our OL and add a weapon or two at WR.  A shutdown CB would be nice, but as I see our needs...

 

1a. WR

1b. OT

2. RG (assuming Kugzilla isn't seen as the long-term solution here)
