Byron Bell is Gone

[All about the Benjamin]

Are the Panthers finally tired of mediocrity? I think it's starting to look that way!

[SIGCHI222]

Byron Bell will be just fine. According to this site, a basic low-end turnstile goes for $2,817.00 and revolving doors go for as much as $38,644.00

True...but you can get any of these for under $20.

I hope OT Byron Bell can catch on as a back up with another NFL team. He gave it his all at LT but he was just in over his head.From all i've ever heard about Bell, he was a stand up guy. I wish him luck and good health.

Byron Bells best play as a Panther must have been the block he put on Patrick Peterson on Fozzys TD run during our playoff game.

 

That play made me giggle for a week.

 

I hope Gman finds a decent T to replace him and protect Cam. I can't believe we resigned Scott BTW.

Hellavu Day!!

[Jeremy Igo]

Deserves a bit of a bump. I think.

Byron Bell "growing as a Christ" right before our eyes.

[Mr. Scot]

Trade him to dallas for Doug free!

 

Can't trade a free agent.

 

 

I'm glad that he's not returning, because no matter who else we brought in, you know Rivera would give Bell every chance to retain his starting job.  Rivera loved him some Byron Bell.

 

I never hated Bell.  I hated that we were forced to play him, but there was never any bad press about Bell.  Every indication is that he is a good guy and gave his all.  He just didn't have the talent to be a starting NFL OT.  I would've liked to have kept him as a backup, but I know Ron would've wanted to play him and Dave probably did too.  Hell, I hope somebody pays him way more than he's worth.

 

I feel bad for him.  By all accounts he's a great guy and a great teammate.

 

But the reality is he wasn't a good enough player, and you can't be sentimental on these decisions if you want to win.

What does he mean by "growing as a Christ"? Did Jesus play OT?

He's started a new religion, Bellslam. He is Jesus and thus eschews the violence of football.

Have no fear David Foucault is here.

[Snake]

Like him as a person but not as a player. Good luck Byron. Hope it works out for you.

[Kevin Greene]

Who?

Have no fear David Foucault is here.

That's some scary poo right there. Gettleman has a lot of work to do this off season, regarding left tackle.

[Camp Fodder]

Would be kinda bad if they go into the draft without addressing the tackle position

we did it at WR last year
