have the panthers set to get an extra 5th rounder, with the possibility of getting two additional 6th round picks. 

 

the 5th round pick would be for Mike Mitchell.  Hell of a deal for a one year rental....and maybe a strategy worth considering going forward. 

 

the 6th rounders would be dependent on how Cason and Webb are viewed relative to Munnerlyn and Ginn.  Again, possibly why Cason was cut when when he was.

So all those people that were saying we are going to get a 3rd and 2 5th's and have these extra picks better pump the brakes a little.  I knew we were getting one for Mitchell, I was hoping for a 4th but a 5th is ok.  I was hoping we would get one more and think we will get one because Webb played so little this year.  An extra 5th and 6th is not bad.  Not great but not bad.

I think you are right, this could very well be a strategy going forward, especially for a team that builds primarily through the draft. The later rounds of the draft and FA is how teams build depth and/or fill holes e.g. ST.

of course.  but that is more or less why we wouldnt get a comp return for losing lafell.  that + snaps is the base formula with lots of little extras added on top

 

there are lots of tricks to getting comp picks, which can and should be exploited on a regular basis.  look at the ravens, they ALWAYS focus on sign players who were cut specificallly so they dont counteract players lost for comp picks.  same reason why GB finally signed Pepper as one of the very few FA they have signed in years. 

 

Lets hope someone pays Hardy $8m+ per year!

You think Hardy can get us a third?

      I think what he is saying is that we went from mediocre to joke status--a virtual bottom feeder. Sure, we've never been a top tier team on a consistent basis, but we went to the Bowl twice (under JR). Tepper made some bad decisions, but, perhaps unlike others, I absolutely know that it takes time to figure things out, and it has to be super difficult to be a "boss" in one business, and then going through the process and realizing that you are a virtual greenhorn in another.  At least we seem to be headed in the right direction. We'll see come this fall.

      [The Athletic] ‘Loyal to whom?’ A coaching exit can trigger a player exodus, but two desert stars took a different path

      It was a combination of Fifita regressing this year and losing the coaching staff we had in 23, now how much was his regression also directly due to the staff change or were they separate issues that then compounded each other, who knows. Part of it was also that the new staff wasn't able to replace Jacob Cowing, who was a 4th round pick by the 49ers last year and in 23 tied T-Mac for I think it was 9th in the nation in catches with 90, or our TE Tanner McLachlan who was a 6th round pick by the Bengals. Without that 2nd and 3rd legitimate receiving threat (plus, it didn't help that our running game was hurt because the Arizona RB who got drafted this year only played the first game of the season then eligibility questions popped up and he was out the rest of the season) our entire offense was built around T-Mac and it made game planning for opposing defenses very simple, throw everything and the kitchen sink at T-Mac and force Arizona to beat you through other players, which we couldn't do. It didn't stop T-Mac from still putting up elite stats, but it severely hurt our team's offensive success, and thus, how Fifita looked. I also made a long post in the main 40+ page T-Mac selection thread last night that touched on his summer injury and how it MIGHT have affected him this past season, as well as some of the Fifita and coaching change stuff if you want to go look at that one.  I never brought the injury up in all the draft discussions because I didn't want to look like I was making excuses for him, but I do think it somewhat affected him at times this year too.
