What's weird is Panthers.com had an article ready to go about Mike Adams. Peppers and Kalil are no where to be found on the official site or the Panthers facebook page.

Not official yet.

Gotta have the signature.

Still, our defense is getting older by the minute.

So are we.

PFF said he's 10th-best free agent safety and 19th-best overall last year. Had a positive (83.3) grade last year, including an 84.4 run defense grade, following up his worst-ever year (2015) and second-best year (2014).

Seems like a good pickup to me. We need a run-defense safety.

Since I live around colt country, I have watched Adams play many games and have had to listen to Colt fans rave about this dude. He has played behind a poopy front seven for many years and still played extremely well. Put him behind our front seven and we have a solid safety. He may be old but this is a good signing.

Sounds like Jamal Adams in the first though if he falls. 

Still rather have Fournette.

That's impressive we're seen as a place you can get a ring, even after last year. Our reputation really has improved dramatically.

Not sure if signings like Peppers and Adams impact our draft plans much if at all. These guys are at the very tail end of their careers. They're stopgaps.

stopgaps with many many probowls between them! But yeah, i agree they don't change the long term plan. It looks like G-man is gearing up for a SB run this season.

Good signing! Allows Coleman to move back to FS and move Boston to the bench! Good job DG!!

This is how you get sustained success, keep getting younger through the draft while going through older veterans through FA
