You're gonna be one of the people whining if we haven't signed someone by 4:30 on March 10th, aren't you?

(good grief) :rolleyes:

It's bigger than that. We have to atleast be meeting with some players now to get feelers and ideas so we won't be behind the 8 ball come March 10th, we have done nothing of the sort and it's just worrisome we aren't starting to lay the ground work now

You all realize the Bears did this so they can afford Jimmy Clausen's new contract, right? LOL

"More moves in addition to Brandon Marshall for Chicago: QB Jimmy Clausen is re-signing with the Bears, per source."

Schefter on twitter...

Fox and Clausen reunite.

It will only get worse when all the other good players are gone and we are all celebrating the signing of Michael Oher as though we just landed Calvin Johnson or something. Other than Oher, who has this team visited or showed remote interest in?! Why haven't we visited Hartline yet? Jacoby Jones? Among others. We have to meet with these guys now to lay the ground work and get feelers for when FA starts, we have did nothing of the sort

If only someone, say the general manager of the panthers, had warned that it would take years to get the cap in shape and that it'd be a year of modest upgrades at best in 2015.

The jets don't have to worry about extending a franchise quarterback soon like we do. The draft is where we're getting most of our value and difference makers right now out of necessity and picks and cap are precious for our plans going forward. We aren't going to make trades and the A-listers won't be coming to the panthers so get used to it at least for another year.

The jets suck. They aren't a model franchise that we should strive to copy. At least point to a better team making a move like this.

The Eagles trading for Alonso. That's an example of a good team doing something like this.

You can't meet with anybody other than players who have been cut until tomorrow.

 

Plus with our beat writers, nobody ever knows what's going on.

 

But more to the point, the smart teams generally sit back and watch other teams blow big wads of money on free agents within the first few days, and then spend wisely on players who can contribute without necessarily being big on hype.

 

Meanwhile, our forum has the usual band of clueless people who panic because we don't go after some big name they've heard of and declare our season over months before it ever starts :rolleyes:
