Carolina signed Kelvin Smith(notes) on Friday and released long-snapper Nick Sundberg. The move comes with Thomas Davis(notes) sidelined with a sprained right knee and Jon Beason(notes) out with a sore left hamstring.

It doesn't commute because it wasn't about our DT getting hurt.. The point he was making is quoted above.. Not because we lost Kemo...

What i was hinting was that we have lost our starting DT for the season that is a known fact. Both Davis and Beason have injuries that most likely want have them miss a single reg season game. So to me we dont need to waste our time, roster spot, or more seriously our limited cap space on a LB that will almost certainly not make the 53. I'm not to worried about it seeing as it it is still early but we need to start bring in some serious competition at the DT position. It would be a need even if we hadn't lost Kemo now it is a necessity. The longer we wait the less time said players have to learn our system and there teammates.

And its compute not commute.

Then what DT would you bring in? Not many A listers just hanging around.

1st of all, thanks for your stewardship on pointing out my typo.. Everyone here appreciates you helping them figure out what it was that I was saying. :)

2nd, I understand your concern with wanting to fill a Kemo replacement, but the article clearly mentions the CAMP FODDER is here for the LBers injured. So you're concern with roster spaces may be a little unwarranted.

The reason being...it has more to do with having a body there for the players to have someone to practice against... Beason and Davis are sitting out some, so it is important that they bring in someone to fill the void for the time being... It has nothing to do with the seriousness of their injuries...

I point this out because the DT situation is irrelevant to this guy coming in...

This guy will be brought in regardless of us finding a DT... and don't worry about roster spots. We aren't going to waste one on him. It'll be okay. :)

Once we find a guy in FA worth bringing in, I'm sure we will.. I would imagine they are trying to see who they have in the mean time.. But roster spots and cap space doesn't have anything to do with this guy in particular..

      check out his "dead cap"   If they cut him now its 80 million in dead cap this season....... once they cut him next season its 60 million. Sure they can kick the can and re-up with him for 2026. They choose poorly, very. They could have cut him this year and SAVED 11 million, but nahhhhhh sign 88 year old cam Jordan and MLB davis. While using this carr saving to spend future money on kamara and young. It was time for the reset and pay up. Huge mistake even if Carr can play.  They have a 100 million bill incoming no matter what, unless they what to pay it in 2027 by resigning 35 year old Carr, 37 year Cam Jordan, 35 year old Davis and others.      Ryan Ramcyk is retired too.  Good news panther fans!!

      I've heard two different opinions of this, one was AI is nothing more than old librarian repeating stuff from books.    I heard from one of my contractor friends, he told me about 5 years ago its too late. Back then, He said government with the backing of investors used a quantum computer that made a AI and told it to make a better AI. After the 9th time of this, that AI became self aware. He was also the first person to tell me not to believe any audio or video form now on. "You could take any world leader and make blackmail or start wars". Of course my dumbass asked "So you could make a video of Chinas military leaders at a donkey show??" " ...... uhh yes Bas". I thought at this time, I better get started on a doomsday bunker.... But here we are, just a few wars happening across Africa, middle east, and Ukraine. I also learnt that it would take millions of dollars to survive and you are better off dying. Godspeed right people!
