People already moving on to the next thing, but is there any evidence James Jones is coming?

There was a tweet on Wednesday that said the Panthers were lurking and were interested in James Jones, but there hasn't been anything since then and I can't even find the original tweet. People are acting like James Jones will be the new savior. Two problems: 1. He's only slightly better than Brandon LaFell. 2. Other than that one tweet, zero evidence exists that I know of that James Jones is coming here. There was way more evidence to support Nicks coming here than Jones.

Well where is he now? Visiting any teams?

Ok let me help you then.  We are waiting to see how many teams are interested in him.  That will tell us whether he will come cheaper or not.  The longer he doesn't get signed the more desperate he will be to find a team.  We have several guys we are looking at and all we need is one or two to sign with us.  Instead of going out and overpaying we are just going to sit out and wait until all the excitement settles down and then sign a few guys between now and the draft.

    • I'd hold on to Walker - we have no OT depth at all. Freeling is a block of clay - all the tools are there and he appears to have a great attitude. He needs serious work on his technique to realise his potential though.
    • From my watch last night: They weren't trading out of 19 unless it was a daft offer once Freeling got there. They were clearly antsy to get Hunter - and Minnesota actually called to offer the trade down. They weren't trading out of the third round pick once Brazzell fell to it (and Canales would have been happy with him in the second round). They traded back a lot on Day 3 - even if Morgan 'Babe Ruth'd' it with Lee, Hecht and Wheatley; they clearly weren't the only guys they would have taken at those picks. I'm curious to know which player caused the reaction at the start of day 2 (Dan Morgan): "of course they'd pick him"
    • Watching this confirms that this staff and front office is super high on Monroe Freeling. I wouldn't be surprised if he's gotta a real chance to win the starting LT job in camp. If he does, we can look to flip Rasheed Walker to a contender desperate for tackle help.   As for Ickey I still really like him and wanna extend him but based on how the staff was talking about Freeling it might be time for ickey to start taking some practice sets at guard if he wants to stay here as we are gonna have to have figure out a solution for the contracts of Lewis and Hunt.  My preferred scenario for the Oline in 2027 is Freeling-Ickey-Hech-Lewis-Moton.
