why you should be excited about kelvin Benjamin

from what i hear, they are mostly fair weather fans.... or fans of the Steelers, Cowboys, etc. very few true Carolina fans come from Shelby, NC it seems

 

You can't swing a dead cat in Shelby and not hit a Skins fan, but there are a few of us.

This is a true statement, I list Shelby since that is what is on the mailing address, along with over half the damned county.  I live actually 10 miles from the city proper, so begin your broad Cleveland County insults please.

 

I love how you experts ignore the fact FSU hasn't put but two WR's into the league worth a damn, and deflect it with insults of a city whose limits I don't even live in, and ignore the fact they are a corrupt program as well.  Also, completely ignore Everett Brown from the same school and his hype, and the bust he proved to be.

 

Bigoted?  Deflecting with the race card is pitiful.  Yes 'um, all I wants is white boys.  What a crock. :rolleyes:   Lee, Matthews, even Ellington would have been a better WR pick.  FYI, they're all black.

 

I love how anyone that speaks against the organization in any form is immediately called "not a fan", etc.  Pathetic.

i was more referring to your scathing review of FSU. you never did answer my question... who is your college team SP?

Honestly, I don't really have one specific.  I root for my alma mater G-W but they are far from the big stage, at least in football.

 

I never have liked FSU, dating back to Bowden hiding behind a bible and pulpit playing the stupid 'aw shucks, dadgum' act for years while his players ran wild.

Yeah it's strange that people don't put any weight in the opinion of an individual who routinely refers to Gettleman as "Gettledouche".

    • Oh he would absolutely flourish. It’s the panthers way. It’s no different with coaches. Sometimes they reach their expiration date, go somewhere else, and find new success.  Similarly to Burns, how long to wait for the light to finally turn on?  Market forces will demand a salary that the panthers can not responsibly match. Sliding him to guard will fit his skill set better, but he has played LT for 3 years. He will receive offers from other teams wanting to pay him LT money.  At guard, he won’t start with what they have paid Hunt and Lewis. Center then?? Dunno. Maybe? He will become a backup by default once they draft their stud LT. I doubt Dan just stands pat. That’s not his MO.  So where does this put him? Can you match what other teams will offer for a backup LT/guard? Do you dish out franchise LT $ on a guy who still needs significant improvement in pass protection. This team will be DOA in the playoffs with the very first team who has a formidable speed rusher. What if he has hit his ceiling in pass protection already and they sign him long term? It’s a big gamble either way. 
    • We're in a great position to see just how big of a misstep it would be, having made so many ourselves
    • I didn't say I would have done it. I was just saying that I can see why some in the FO considered it. Everything was done to give Bryce weapons. Solidify the interior line thru FA. Get XL at WR in round 1 and then get the most talented RB in round 2. Take a TE in round 4, etc They were probably "assuming" he'd make a complete recovery during the 2024 season. I'm a skeptical person. I wouldn't have assumed he'd be ok in 2024. I personally would have taken another position in the 2nd for that very reason. But, if I were "influenced" to take him I would've argued to keep him off the field, especially seeing how things were going for us record wise. Conventional Wisdom says most backs don't get back to normal until two years after the ACL surgery. He was injured in Fall 2023. Having him suit up in 2025 would have been almost 2 years since the original injury. You have him for 3 year on low contract. If he balls out, you resign him for a couple of more years b/c he'd only have 3 years of tread on the tires. If he's ok but not great you let him walk.
