Miss me some Sanjay

That's really great to hear and would explain the wonderful construction of the trade itself. We moved back in rounds 3,4,5 and moved up in round 6. Clearly we believed there was depth in talent and going back a few spots would not be a big deal. Not enough is being made about this specific trade. You may see more trades like this one next year.

… and Kurb

I mean, I was not so subtly just trying to just get a shot in at the Gamecocks. but if you want it vs mighty Bama in National Title games… 7 rec, 88 yard, 2 TDs. 10 rec, 92 yards, 2 TDs. Bama had no answer for him either.

How interesting, yeah that makes a lot of sense. The Charlotte Observer has lost a lot of talent to other NFL teams throughout the years. From Jourdan Rodrigue, Alaina Getzenberg, Marcel Louis-Jacques

We claimed Captain Jack Sparrow off of waiver?

How well did he play last year? He always does well but never gets resigned. I figured at his age he would be regressing. That said, with the lack of depth at CB, I wouldn’t mind him being a back up.

6ft 6 wingspan…. Nice.

I love this signing. He was a solid player for years with Oakland. He does his job well, problem is he basically just plays slot. If nothing else he’s a good camp body to have. If there’s an injury then he’s a experienced WR we can use as a back up plan.

Wish him the best but he’s a long shot to make the team.

Exactly, hence the real question in the OP, does anyone know if they've started selling them in Charlotte this weekend or even today, like at the team store? If they have, then the online orders probably would be going out in a few weeks. I'd rather not order it now and it still take a few months and by then I could have got the blue one that I prefer instead. But if the blacks are going out soon, then I want to get that now, I'm too excited still, hahaha. I was going to do the authentic, but saw they're like $400 now (what the hell?!?!), so figure I'll wait on that one for a few years as I do think we'll get new uniforms sooner than later and will do the authentic then.

He’s gotta be the X.

XL and T-Mac are basically as polar opposite as possible with XL as backwoods southern kid and T-Mac a Hawaii and So Cal kid, but they both have big personalities and neither is remotely shy in front of the camera. The team should have them do some ongoing social media segment together as I think the two of them are going to be a hilarious combo off the field to watch together, it would be gold. If T-Mac is the player I expect him to be and XL can improve, they will make for a very fan friendly WR duo for a while.

The man eats raccoon give him time

He's supposed to be Evans, he had 1k and 12 tds his rookie year.

I'm not sure he makes the roster, TBH. He's a name at this point, but I'm not sure what he brings to the table that we don't already have with Adam Thielen. I suspect we keep 6 WRs this year: LOCKS: T-Mac XL Thielen Coker LIKELY: Horn Jr. (as a return specialist if nothing else) That only really leaves one open WR spot between Renfrow, Moore, Jacolby George, Kobe Hudson and Moose III.

It was Eric the pff guy. He controlled a lot of our draft this year. He has stated before you give up picks to trade up for QB specifically, any other positions you do pick swaps.

Maybe they let some fans do the deal, because it was basically like the type of trades you see the fans do during their mock drafts all the time, just keep adding picks to the deal until the values about balance out, hahaha

sure but there are 100 other plays where he looks lost

I saw him doing alright for a raw rookie prospect. It was his hands that let him down. He burnt Slay like he was a piece of toast but dropped it

he hails from philly where you have to ask edgy questions to stand out. I ve told my Soronsen story a 100x times on here and I am still repulsed this is the mindset of the old school observer reporters enjoy I've told this story on here before but in in the early 2000's after a panther game my friends and I ran into Tom Sorenson of the Charlotte Observer at the southend brewery. He sat with us for a while and at some point he was asked directly about why the CO wasnt more critical of Jerry Richardson. He basically said Charlotte is a nice quiet southern town and the people here didnt want those types of stories or those types of reporters/columnists that cause drama. I am obviously paraphrasing but we asked about why the paper wasnt going after shinn and the hornets harder as well when he was going through his troubles and all the crappy moves they made. He just said there is not an audience for that. We argued and argued and he just didnt understand. Maybe he was playing dumb but I remember being incredulous at the time that the people in the media thought that asking hard questions would turn off readers

The +800 on getting to 10 TD's looks quite tasty, if he plays 17 games I think he gets to double digit TDs. XL was our best Redzone target last year, T-Mac is an insane upgrade in that role next year, he's going to be a target monster in the end zone

Marcus Blumberg, Mel Kiper, and Nate Davis can all suck a dick

thats kindof the point, he doesnt
