With the money and draft picks we have spent on our wide receiver group, and with the way Canales has said he wants to run the ball, a breakout season for a Panthers tight end could be 30-40 catches. For him and Tremble, quality will matter more than quantity. Make some clutch catches, be a solid end zone target, and that should be sufficient.

I imagine Robert Kraft is wondering why these guys just can't use his preferred Spa?

I am going to go out on a limb here and say Tucker is not a likely candidate.

The bigger question is how much would it cost to replace him? If we were to let him, and bring in someone better, would eat up a large chunk of cap space, probably more than if we signed him to a long term contract. And using a draft pick on a replacement means we won't be able to use that pick on another area of concern and while we could get someone better, we might also get someone worse.

Did it? Its not like he is the first pro athlete to cheat. In fact, its fairly common. Not that many get caught in the manner he did and I suppose that might have more of an impact on his reputation, but in a few years, I doubt this will matter much.

Most of the cases I have heard of involve one woman suing another woman for messing around with her husband. I think in this case, the guy is going after Steve because he knows Steve is wealthy. Otherwise, they would probably just divorce and be done with it.

I think if you are willing to cheat on your own spouse, you don't really care if the other person is married or not.

Looking at stats for the last 3 years, A&M doesn't get many sacks from its edge rushers.

The hit rate (players that sign second contracts with the team that drafted them) is less than 50%. Of course, there are a number of reasons for this, and sometimes even a good player will sign with another team for his second contract. But if you get two starters and a decent backup out of any one draft, you are doing good.

Yeah, imo its impossible to know how well a draft worked for at least two years.

NIL probably had something to do with it as well. https://247sports.com/college/texas-am/longformarticle/dl-nic-scourton-reflects-on-lone-season-at-texas-am-joining-carolina-panthers-2025-nfl-draft-249329153/#2641460 On getting into A&M On NIL.

If PFF loved it, we are doomed.

Not a hint of it in the press. Morgan would be tough to play poker with.

Depends on the circumstances. If we had to cut some young promising guy to keep him, then no. But if we just need a guy for a year, bring him back. Definitely bring him back for a day and let him retire a Panther if that is what he wants.

I may be misremembering, but I vaguely remember watching him last year and thinking and maybe even saying, I hope we can get their kicker.

I agree with your first two sentences. Only way I would cheer for him though is if he became a Panther.

My personal laptop has about a five minute lock. My company laptop will go about a minute and it will lock. Same with my phone (because it has a remote access connection to my employer's network and they require it). It is annoying, but I understand why they do it. And I work from home. I work in cyber threat and these are pretty standard requirements now for any major corporation. I bet they will be now for NFL teams.

No doubt, but I am just saying that if everything works out the way the coach wants it, a tight end might not have many opportunities. Hopefully, all of them make the most of the chances they do get.

The more I think about it, the more I wonder if it even matters. We have a coach that "says" he wants to run the ball. We have two good rb's and a third we drafted. We have a Oline that is geared to run block. We have a wide receiver group that contains two first round picks, one of the best hands guys we have had ever (Thielen) and and a promising undrafted free agent in Coker. And we have at least two tight ends who have shown they can catch passes on occasion. How many chances will any tight end, even a good one, actually get? Our number one might have less than 40 catches, and still have a good year.

Mine is set to auto lock after a short time period. And if it has confidential data on it (as this one did), then it should be a short time period.

I agree. It's an idiotic prank.

To silence all of them. Multiple SB wins. Personally I am not yet convinced but I have more hope than I did after the first two games last year.

I agree. Imo, what we need to see from a young developing QB are clutch throws under pressure and avoiding to many turnovers and bad sacks. Big yardage totals are somewhat overrated.

Remember 2017 when we went into the playoffs with maybe 1 decent WR who was injured. Times sure have changed.
