I liked Mike Jackson and thought he was a good player. but hearing him speak in his press conference after getting his contract... man he's going to be easy to root for. he got me pumped up just how he was talking about his mindset. respect.

yeah I don't think the Panthers got Brown as a consolation prize from missing out on Milton. I think they hoped to get Brown AND Milton. now we'll see who they get to fill Milton's role.

ok guys, get the panicking about the 2 years, 20M out of the way now. if you wait too long, the details about the cap hits and guaranteed money will come out, and all that will have been for nothing

I'll go ahead and open up the high-rise window so fans can start jumping when they see the contract numbers

Milton Williams incoming

do yourself a favor and don't even think about the cap ramifications of signing a single digit millions guaranteed two year deal. they offered to let him hit the market, they got a sense of the market, and decided it made more sense to get it done before the start of free agency. in terms of big picture roster management, this is a nothing burger. Tremble is a perfectly acceptable player with some upside who showed a lot more once the quarterback play got more consistent. funny how that works! he'll be either TE2 or TE 1B for the next two years. if he sees $16M, he'll have earned it and no one will complain. move on. the real insane contracts are coming starting tomorrow.

I know it's literally sponsored propaganda, but tbh this video made me feel, for the first time this year, that the culture of the team might actually be changing. all that talk from Morgan and Canales, and it might actually be happening

Robert Hunt is the biggest home run FA acquisition this team has had in a long while

fans looking at the "up to $X" numbers on a contract announcement, doing simple division, and thinking it will be an $X/year cap hit is a tale just as old, though. $15M guaranteed over 4 years. hope to see the numbers, and wonder if they even shifted any of the guaranteed money into this year since he signed mid-season. if he drops off a cliff then it won't be difficult to get out of that contract. otherwise he's clearly a cornerstone of the offense and they're rewarding the right kind of player. deep breaths!

the constant "process blue" washing of the Tepper foundation's every dollar donated is corny as hell. I liked it better when you heard tell of nice things the owners did from a 3rd party. with some credibility and positive word of mouth. not tooting your own horn every time you give a little scratch.

I will say that the vibe I'm getting from the new coaches, and even from Morgan, as stiff as he is, is authenticity. not overshooting in their ambitions, practical in their coaching and in their thinking, and living who they are in every setting.

*looks around* Trevin Wallace has a chance of being a good player

yes, and I don't think it's a question.

damn, I screwed up and watched a bunch of Mike Williams plays last night and now I want the Panthers to sign him. I don't think I realized how many amazing plays he has on top, top corners, and against double teams. his highlight reel stacks up against anybody's. I know he has an injury history but he has legit skills. I wonder how much the allure of playing close to home matters to him.

watching some Dolphins footage and yeah, Hunt looks like a monster. a tone-setter. liking it.
