Panthers trying out DBs?

[Who Said What?]

We should have brought back Florence anyway.

Wonder what Chris Gamble is doing these days?

Dave Gettlemen doesn't have the cents to do this.  He is always penny pinching, trying to nickle and dime his way and wasting his great quarterback. 

 

Silver dollar.

Good, maybe some player that nobody else wanted on their roster can help the Panthers abysmal secondary.  Solid logic.

 

 

You're the one who is applying no logic.  Our secondary is abysmal.  The biggest complaint about them is that they're old, slow guys who are just collecting a check and have no attitude.  Bringing in a young, fast guy that was cut by another team could absolutely work out for us.  That player will absolutely give 100% out on the field every play.  Hell, sometimes guys just need a second chance to get things to click for them.

Clemons signed with Houston a while back, but I had been hoping we would go after him since FA started

 

Any idea when?

 

I'm not seeing that...  Last I saw, he agreed to a contract with them in March and then was cut in August.  According to his wiki page, he hasn't been signed by anyone as of now.

Does anyone wonder if Godfrey can still play safety? Clearly nickel isn't for him, but could he slide back to FS?

he's retired, but other than that I have no idea- wikipedia didn't provide any further info

From what I understand, he invested wisely and is fairly well set.  I don't see him wanting to come back, unless its just for the challenge.  Even if he could and wanted to come back, it would probably take a little while for him to get back in football shape. 

[Mr. Scot]

On Tuesdays, I always check Aaron Wilson's Twitter to see who we're looking at.

 

Nothing there yet.  Probably later.

Please let this be true!

Probably loving retirement, even though he should still be a Panther.

"That they've kind of cut bait. ... I've not heard any talk about anything other than a straight cut."

 

Friendly reminder that the Panthers best CB of all time wasn't given an offer by Gettleman. Our defense last year would have been lights out with him.

[dilated_diatribe]

the answer is on the roster........LAST YEARS!!!!!!

Maybe, but they saved 7 million or so in cap space by cutting him, so we might have had trouble getting other guys that helped like Ginn, Mitchell etc....  And Gamble missed most of the previous season with injuries.

 

 

I think its possible that Gamble's heart just wasn't in it anymore.
