Looking at Panthers Roster, I noticed the only person without a Number is Peanut. Even the new Draft guys got numbers. I wonder if there is a battle of 33. They were number 5 and 10 in college, so I guess college number is out of the question.

Honestly I wouldn't give up my number either if I was on a team before someone else..doesn't matter if they were a scrub, all pro, or HoF caliber player.

 

I suppose I should say the situation would matter...like if I didn't think I'd make it in the NFL or have a good career on my own I may take some money for it but I doubt most players assume they suck and won't make it.

I'd give it up for a HOF easy. Especially if I'm basically a rookie like Boston

This is odd topic on my part but I have been seeing this a lot on these boards. People keep referring to Tillman as a HOF. I don't think there is a chance he ever sniffs the HOF.

I don't think he was calling Tillman a HoFer he was just responding to my posts situation.

 

I just am one of those people who liked my number and wore it with pride when I played so the number meant something to me even if that sounds stupid to other people...some players are like that some aren't..I was #81 when playing and would have always wanted to wear that...

 

 

I also think that some of the reason these guys  could be picking these odd numbers are that they don't want to be associated with other #"80s" such 88 Irvin, 81Moss/TO, Rice 80, etc.

 

Not many Famous #13 WR or #17 WR even if clearly some QBs were great #13.

with a couple more picks, as early as this season he would be the first in NFL History to record 40 Ints and 40 forced fumbles.

He has a great shot to get busted in Canton.

    • Yeah, I am not giving up on him yet but I do think we need to see a pretty big step up this season to be convinced he is a long term solution. It is a shame that his development seemed to be stunted in 2023. 
    • To put the question simply: Would you be happy with a Steelers trade that doesn't bring back their first-round pick next year? A potential trade between us and Pittsburgh is interesting because depending on which draft value chart you use, Pittsburgh has two totally natural trades available to them, but they're very different. The Jimmy Johnson chart says the difference between us at 8 and them at 21 is 600 points, or almost exactly the value of the last pick in the 1st round. That falls in line with how teams tend to discount future picks. 8 for 21 and next year's Pitt 1st is almost exactly equal. More modern charts (Chase Stuart, Fitz) are much flatter, and 8 for 21 and 83, Pittsburgh's next pick this year, are basically equal.  Now, the second one obviously won't actually happen--the Lions had to include pick 73 just to move from 29 to 24 last year, and Pittsburgh would clearly be making a much bigger jump. But given the flatness of this draft and the lack of blue-chip players at the top, would you accept some mix of 21, 83, and next year's non-first-rounders from Pittsburgh, or would you want Dan Morgan barred from every touching the draft again for accepting anything less than next year's first?
    • just ask XL, to date he is has never been wrong about what we are doing w/ our first pick
