Bring him back! We already got teddy back. Fug it, let's bring captain back too! FTW

Not sure if being sacastic - one of the biggest cons of internet forums.

But, if Mike Mitchell were available for a reasonable price, you don't think this secondary could benefit from his speed and physicality? 

He's already played in the defense so it wouldn't take long for him to pick it back up. Panthers have been missing a punisher back there a la Chris Harris and Mike Mitchell.

I Still think Weddle might go to the raiders  . last few days he has been following raider players on Twitter: Khalil Mack and Bruce Irvin of the Raiders and newly added Cb Fa Sean Smith and weddle  were college teammates at Utah and have the same agent and both have been said to be encouraging Weddle to sing with the raider as well,,

Just cause the  media says nothing about the panthers does not mean poo on who we are or are not interested in tho, Panthers don't leak news out . I Still think it be us or the Raiders , 

The Three teams that Jason La Canfora said to keep close tabs  on Salary Cap is

Pittsburgh Steelers $7,496,186

Dallas Cowboys      $8,902,193 

Baltimore Ravens    $12,573,555

Stop trying to convince yourself that we have a chance.

 

Btw, I hope you're right.

Trust me I'm not trying to convince myself and or in any way am I advocating to sing Weddle , I like kurt Coleman and  love his warrior mentality , I think he is as good if not better then Weddle  to be honest . So no it won't hurt my feelings if we don't sign  Weddle  .

Yep ,  I would think that could take the #Steelers out of play on Weddle seeing they might be in need of a Wr now lol..

Who knows it just might.  This isn't his first strike either, not sure how he could be trusted at this point.

    • Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist
    • Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.
    • Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
