I would much rather have Dwayne Harris. He is younger with more upside, and a better overall special teams player.
-
Once we draft Nelson Agholor, this puppy love affair with Ginn will change. LOL
-
Then people should stop crying.

LOL @ all you people crying about our reporters. There is nothing to report.
-
Like I said, G-man has his shi--err ship on lock. News will come out at the appointed time. Think of it like Christmas. Some people like to run in and tear everything open in 5 minutes because they just can't wait. Me, I wait and wait and wait until the point when they're asking me, "Ain't you gonna open your gifts?" After most have already been surprised and what not, I still have my surprise to come. I appreciate the anticipation, because once it's over, it's over for another whole year.

The fact of the matter is is that some reporter somewhere over the rainbow---whether it be local or national---would have reported something on the Panthers if there was something to report.
-
Why blame the beat reporters for not reporting something when there isn't anything to report regarding free agency? Gettleman's way is patience and close to the vest.
-
And not that he is a free agent at this point, but if the Jags sign Thomas, I would expect them to drop Marcedes Lewis in this last year of his contract because they would get substantial savings in cap space. Lewis would immediately become someone that I would target in free agency if Ed Dickson signs with someone else. edit: 6.8 mil to be exact.

Bargain Free Agent: WR Denarius Moore
top dawg replied to gettlemanjack's topic in Carolina Panthers
I wouldn't even pay Moore 4-8 mil per year. His play so far does not command that type of money. I figured we could get him around 2 to 2.5 mil per year. He doesn't have to be a 1000 yard receiver, just take some pressure off KB and Olsen, and make teams pay when they pressure the others. One of my main points with Moore is that he can give you what Torrey Smith will give you at a substantial discount, and even more. In my opinion, he is adept at running the entire route tree, where Smith is more of a one trick pony. This would make us much more secure if KB would ever get hurt. With KB, Olsen, Moore, and someone like Breshad Perriman or Nelson Agholor for example, Cam would have multiple weapons. Think what you want about Moore. You can't deny that he is explosive. You can't deny the talent. I have heard some experts call him a "tease". I have seen NFL.com refer to him as an "enigma". The kid has untapped potential, and would be a perfect bargain WR for this team. Proehl can unlock the "whip ass" in this kid. edit: BTW, you can tell when I am using my laptop vs. phone or pad because of all the errors. -
Frank Gore & the Eagles are in serious talks. Possible deal as early as Tuesday.

Justin Houston still campaigning for offer sheet, one that he hopes Chiefs won't match. He is very upset.

Bargain Free Agent: WR Denarius Moore
top dawg replied to gettlemanjack's topic in Carolina Panthers
Here is something from David Newton's Panther mailbag. @DNewtonespn What position (not a player currently on the team) do you see the Panthers spending the most in free agency? #PanthersMailbag - Grant Hughes (@KenjonVander) March 5, 2015 @DNewtonESPN: Interesting. The obvious choice would be a left tackle if there was one worth spending on. There's not. Potentially a pass-rushing defensive end, but the Panthers already have a full plate in Kony Ealy, Mario Addison, Wes Horton and Frank Alexander to play opposite Charles Johnson. That brings us to a wide receiver or cornerback. There are several strong candidates for both that could cost in the $4 million to $8 million range. At wide receiver there's Philadelphia's Jeremy Maclin, Oakland's Denarius Moore and Baltimore's Torrey Smith. At cornerback there's Seattle's Byron Maxwell and a few others who could fall into that mix. I don't think you'll actually see the Panthers spend a ton on one player, but if they do I'd say at one of those two positions. http://espn.go.com/blog/carolina-panthers/post/_/id/12544/panthers-mailbag-where-should-carolina-spend-big-money-in-free-agency -

Funny guy! BTW, Moore retweeted a Snoop tweet that said "Come to the School that wants you, not the school that you want to go to." That was the correlation. -
Saints sign Mark Ingram to 4 yr / $ 16 million contract
top dawg replied to gettlemanjack's topic in Carolina Panthers
Well, I was just going to express why Ingram was paid, but I see G-man Jack (with the stats of PFF) did it for me. Some of you are vastly underestimating Ingram. Every defense isn't the Panthers' defense that largely made some great backs look quite ordinary once they got some continuity and their wings up under them. Ingram dealt with some injuries also, and still produced over 1000 all-purpose yards last year. He has also played behind Sproles and Pierre Thomas for a good part of his career. The Saints, like any team, want to get him on the field more, not less. He was a beast last year during many games. And the fact is is that he is still young, in years and tread. -

Nah, man, that's old news. Moore is going to be a clear free agent barring an unlikely act of God. -
Bargain Free Agent: WR Denarius Moore

The majority of the world picked RG3 over Cam before RG3 was injured, and some picked Tannehill also. If you look at their statistics and ratings, you might be surprised at how relatively close they are on many points. Of course Cam has played one more season than both, but look at the averages and ratings. Stop being such a Homer. Everyone is not a Panthers fan and doesn't see things through Cam colored glasses. I am one of Cam's most ardent supporters---Cam as a QB and a person---and have been, but he's not perfect and hasn't pulled himself from the pack quite yet. Hopefully once he gets more weapons, including a guy like Denarius Moore, hopefully he will ascend to the pedestal that many of us believe that he is capable of. Hell, maybe he---along with Proel and Rivera---can help Moore to reach his potential as opposed to being blackballed by idiots and playing within a dysfunctional, disjointed franchise. As for trying to knock Polian's career, have at it. It still won't change the fact that he is in the Hall of Fame. Obviously someone cares what he thinks. -

I see you've been listening. I don't know why more people don't. People may not like Bill Polian for various reasons, but he has always proven to be an excellent talent evaluator. So I guess people must ask themselves why Polian grades Moore so highly among the crop of free agent wide receivers this year, even though Moore was hung out to dry and buried on the bench. Polian is definitely not the type to express gratuitous "positive" opinions. He doesn't talk out the side of his neck. -

That mey be how you meant it, which I agree from that perspective, that's why I said it was surprising in my next post. But other people don't mean it that way. -

Ingram never looked like a bust in my opinon, he just never got the touches. Now that both Sproles and the PT Cruiser are gone, he'll be THE guy. -

This is surprising though in light of their cap issues. -

I wonder how much you guys think RBs are worth. I don't believe all that hype about solid RBs coming a dime a dozen. Plus the guaranteed part is really the most important part, -
I don't know what all the hubbub is about. Until I know otherwise, I am going to assume that he signed a deal that allows us to release him in case he is just plain poo at the position at worst, and at best the coaches get to work with him to bring out his best over the next few months. I figure that G-man figures Other has a puncher's chance of being a solution at LT at best, or provide some depth at RT at worst. I do believe that as a fan the smartest thing to do in regards to Oher is to hope for the best, be prepared for the worst, but expect somewhere in between. There weren't many good options out there to begin with, so I always believed that our next LT would either be Remmers, or a draftee that will either start day one, or take over near mid season for Remmers or a free agent.
