"Roger being Roger, I guess," Mitchell said. "To be honest, I think there is a little bit of a targeting system they have out. I think I'm one of the guys they'd been looking for, but I'm OK with that."

 

Mitchell said it was his fifth fine of the year, including the preseason, totaling close to $45,000. Asked where the fines went, Mitchell stared into a television camera and said, "Right in Roger's pocket. Right in his pocket. On camera, right in his pocket is where it's going."

 

I love it. Finally, a Carolina Panther player not afraid to say something to the press....

Get your checkbook ready, Mike.

he's an athletic and explosive tackler. sometimes that can be viewed as dirty, and in the case of mitchell, sometimes it is dirty. not always, though.

 

i wouldn't put him on the same level as a ryan clark, hines ward, or brandon merriweather, but some of his hits can be questioned. i think it's a more of a result of his nature as a physical, aggressive tackler rather than dirty intentions to hurt other players. merriweather is clearly a shithead, mitchell is not.

He will get another one for accusing Goodell of pocketing what goes to charity. But if his is fine with it I am too.

That money is not going to charity, at least the majority isn't. It gets rolled into Goodells paycheck and dispersed over the league so they can increase their ad revenue and make more money, but it absolutely is not going to charity. The fact they are so quick to fine players only proves they use the money for profit.

Ok, I'm not arguing either way. However they claim it does. That has been their official stance on it for a while. It would be a pretty big issue if they were saying one thing and doing another with something like that.

      This is just a different type of draft. There's no top shelf compared to recent drafts. In the last ten years or so, there was a clear group. The issue with this draft is the best players are at lowered valued spots. Plus I said before Id always take the 8th best edge/de over the best safety. Panthers have always overrated LBs and RB compared to the league, but they did get safety right in terms of not valuing it. Mike Minter was about it, others die hards can bring up...  Still in order to better receive this draft, once you drop the positional value and just take the best player, its easier to understand. Very odd draft and the first time in history I can recall needing to do this. Just memeber coofus and NIL have changed the draft. There's lots more older players, cause now money to a guy that maybe 6th or maybe UD..... I mean Id take the college girls and 800k too, I think....

      An Explication of the Offense

      Good write up OP..... I may be the outlier here but I like our WR sans XL. Metchie is sneaky good and just like Dowdle last year he WILL BE the biggest under the radar singing of this year FA moves. I am warming up to the idea of Sadiq at 19 over defense. I'm just ready for every BY excuse to be gone, he doesn't have this or that. No he just sucks and we need to move on. Honestly I've said it before but this team has been depleted of so much talent over the years we really could go BPA and be fine. In DM I trust..........for now
