In response to letting Greg hardy walk away in FA.

"Sitting down with Dave Gettleman and talking with him about the direction we're gonna head and how we're gonna get things done, they're gonna work to get that taken care of, so I'm pretty excited about that. I like the fact that we're gonna have our guys as we go forward."

wow didn't see this coming... I must admit I thought GH was gone.... Maybe TD punked him in recent comments? I have mixed feelings about signing but DG knows better than us. I got a feeling we're going to be cutting some people. Peace out Captain, Godfrey, and unproductive O-men. nevertheless, I guess our next question is what's gonna happen with the oline, secondary, and much needed #1WR.

i saw the interview...pretty good stuff. from him i got that WR and CB were priorities.

 

they are still in eval process on their own roster, but looking to see what's available in the draft.

I got a feeling DG is expecting McNutt will make a splash this season. hahaha.... but seriously, I'm cool with us fixing these areas. Ginn and Mitchell are must haves unless we're upgrading. they have set a new standard.

sometimes the answer is on the roster. sometimes the answer is in the draft.

 

we need help at OL, WR, and CB...and it just so happens that this draft class is deep there.

 

we'll still see a lot of one year low cost deals this year, but we won't be the only team with them. that will probably be the case with the majority of FAs this year.

Well.... I don't think anyone of really wants to see the Kraken in another jersey. Let's just hope other other fears are put to ease and we don't over spend. 

Real question would you rather have Nicks or Hardy?

the last thing we want to see is GH lined up against the Bell...

I actually love Greg Hardy I do! But we are a secondary away from a mirror image of seattles defence!

Offensively we need two new tackles all our guards back healthy our RBs back healthy and if we keep smitty and got Olsen we need atleast two starters at WR out of the draft or FA! By keeping hardy which yes is great, but unless gettleman been lying to us and we got a poo ton of dollars there is now way we can resign this guy and have a much more effective offense than last year, so expect the same defensive games offense putting up ten points.

I'm not being a doomsday either before people start saying that, but it's like we keep one guy to sacrifice about four positions of real need, makes no sense to me, hope the front office has a good plan up its sleeve.

I have a feeling we'll be better this next season than last.

      Another Guard?? Small ball was just a meme right?????   Again can anyone confirm Kon had more than 2 dunks for the season?? I watched more highlights and saw lots of layups. Did see one thunder dunk tho...   Jeff just needs to finish this off-season with a guard package trade for a PF/C. Call Portland, that's a start!

      XL treatment is in the top 5 What The Fuccks for the the huddle. It just happens that the 32nd team and 33rd team GMs knew each other very well. Panthers viewed the 5th year option as being worth a late 6th and a trade was made to make XL a 1st rounder.  He had injuries in OTAs, mini camp and TC. Like others had more injuries in season and just kept playing. Half the season was bad BY and dalton. He still had 500 yds, 5 TDs, and like 45 recs.  Just super weird the treatment. BTW people love to focus on the bad plays, but there was only one WR that caught a TD on the AP NFL Defensive Player of the Year, can you guess who that was?? By many accounts the Pats wanted XL badly and had to select Polk instead, there's strong rumors that Polk is either going to be cut or traded for a 2078 7th rounder. Panthers could have easily been in this situation if not for the Bills allowing the trade up. It pays to have friends.... I feel XL will force some fans to plates of raccoon as he develops. (please stay healthy)
