Panthers Interested in Kenny Britt

Our backup plan for the prom has dumped us and we are in "ask anyone" mode.

 

Person is suggesting Mario Manningham...

 

from rotoworld

The Charlotte Observer names free agent Mario Manningham as a "guy to keep an eye on" for the Panthers.

Beat writer Joe Person is simply connecting the dots. Manningham and GM Dave Gettleman know each other from their Giants days. Manningham is actually visiting the G-Men on Monday. He'd be an extremely underwhelming addition to a depleted Panthers receiving corps. Manningham's left knee appears to be shot. Realistically, he isn't much better than what Carolina already has.

No, you misunderstand. I meant the situation. This could be like Ginn resurrecting his career here.

 

Oh, my bad.  Why not? Britt could come in and do his thing. Of course he doesn't strike me as having that chip on his shoulder like Ginn, and has that checkered history. At this point, I guess he's worth the shot.  We're scraping the barrel, but it is arguable that he had the most upside out of any FA WR during this off season.  If his knees are good and head is in the game, he could turn out to be the best of the bunch. Hard to believe, but true.

Everyone we've been 'interested in' except for Roman fugging Harper hasn't signed here. I'll believe this if/when we sign him.

Well Harper was the first one who actually visited and we signed him, had two visits today with cotchery and darian Stewart, although person is saying Stewart wasn't offered a contract

Wouldn't be surprised.  I think DG tossed Smith because he wanted Cam to be the leader on offense. Britt may be a distraction of sorts but he isn't going to try to be a leader in the lockerroom.

 

Could give him something small to give him a chance to resurrect his career, like we did Ginn

 

Like an 8 ball?

    • overall agree on the draft grade as a whole on on each pick, but every time I read (and I have read it more than once) that we "gave up two firsts" for Bryce, I am confused. We gave up the 2024 first, but we swapped 2023 firsts, so we didn't give up anything there. We did give up our former first rounder in DJ, but I don't think thats what you mean as one of the "firsts" we gave up.
    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
