Give Richie Incognito a shot?

There has been some twists in this jonathon martin story and it turns out that he isn't such a bad guy like the media originally made it out to be.

This could be a good move for us because we wouldnt need O Line and we would be getting a pro bowler and would be getting him for the veteran minimum Im sure because he just wants to get back and play football. We could adress issues at OG and not have to spend a draft pick on it. I'm not saying we should do this but if we do, I can totally understand why.

Knowing what we've been able to glean so far I wouldn't be opposed to the guy, but do you actually think J.R./G-men would bring that guy to Charlotte? I can't see them doing it under any circumstances.  Incognito would be an unnecessary distraction and negative influence in the locker room just because of his history alone. I just don't see him fitting our culture. He doesn't strike me as being a mentor to younger guys on the field, and may be a hindrance off the field. The sum total wouldn't justify him being here.

Hell no, dude had a bad rep way before this.

Kicked out of Nebraska...

First pro team didn't want him back...

Sexual harassment / battery allegations...

Known to use racist language...

Known to be a locker room headache...

Widely despised in the league...

Plays a position where chemistry with teammates is important...

Would never fit in with current Panther linemen...

Hell no.

not saying we should do it. Just saying I wouldnt be opposed to It because it makes some sense.

    • You didn’t really address the point, just like you ignored the point about the RBs initially, and saying “they are all lotto picks” is just a really silly reduction because you could say that about literally any player rookie or vet every snap, every game, every year. It is well known that different positions have different hit rates, and I would argue different types of prospects within position groups as well, and that hit rates change the further down in the draft you go. Everybody knows QB is different and that, for example, first round OL have a really high success rate. Using your lotto ticket analogy…again…you are saying a lotto ticket with a 1 in 100 chance of hitting is the exact same thing as a lotto ticket with a 1 in 2 chance of hitting (this is an example, don’t take these odds literally). The point was he is no more of a lotto ticket than the 31yr old receiver coming off a major knee injury, and in my opinion he is better odds with a higher potential “jackpot”. Saying one player is an “lotto ticket” while another isn’t is just not sound logic. You have no idea who will break out, regress, get injured, etc. There are safer bets than others, that’s all. I don’t think Diggs is a safe bet and even if he was, weighing him over all of the Panthers WRs plus 2 1k rushers is just dumb. You can disagree if you want. The list is stupid.
    • Yeah, this is all projections of how it will turn out. Inevitability this list will look ridiculous in a full 2025 sesson hindsight, most likely. Still, I am pretty surprised that so many bristled at being thought of as having very, very lowly ranked WR and TE units. We literally have been for years. All you have to do is just have things stay the same and those are immediately bottom 5 units. It is easy to see why one would be reticent to have lofty expectations in the preseason. Gotta show it first when you are a perennial cellar dweller. That's just life at the bottom.
    • That's my biggest concern with making him the 2C.  You split up the Aho Jarvis bromance that accounted for a lot of points.  If Jarvis excels as a C, it could help the team even more though.
