Gettleman sucks Gettleman overpaid Amirite?

Correct. If we don't fill spots in the exact way and order of a troll then the tram is doomed 

 

The DL functions with a rotation as a norm.

You do realize Soliai was the biggest reason why The Falcons were stopping the run like a boss for the first half of the season... right?

Don't worry about him. If we have a winning season he'll have nothing to say and disappear again just like last year.

He knows just how stupid he looks when we're winning. Heck, last year's Super Bowl run made him look like an absolute moron. Imagine how dumb he'll look if we make the playoffs again this season.

Good rotational DT!!! Get'em DG!!!

Holy poo... there is a lot of Polynesians/Samoans in the NFL.  I am hoping when the Browns do a Fire Sale we can get Danny Shelton.

Another interesting Fact... most of the Polynesian/Samoan NFL Players are DTs. Also.. most of them are from UTAH or California.

And Another Interesting Fact.. more Polynesians have played for the Panthers than any other Organization.

He really can't look any dumber than he already does after the Super Bowl run.

Every year it's the same offseason rants and front office bashing.

Won't stop him from giving it his best effort.

[Captain Morgan]

on the Falcons board, there were a few who felt he didn't perform to his pay level, but for the most part, about 60% were pissed about losing him, and even more pissed that the Panthers got him.

Numbers don't add up. That equals a $6M contract($20k short, but close enough). $500k is missing unless it is a performance bonus not listed.

[jdpanther5]

So the original number was $7M, now Wilson is reporting $6.5M but his numbers add up to about $6M.

Either way all the guaranteed money is up front, important with him talking about this potentially being his last season.

Rapaport originally reported $4M in the first year, so it may be $2M base salary with $1M of it guaranteed. That would make it almost $7M, with the $6.5M number being the base value until the $500K bonus.
