I agree with this usually, but I have a feeling we're still in the running...  his last tweet, still on the day of his visit with us, was this:

He was then scheduled to meet with Indy today, and "potentially" but not confirmed, with Patriots later.

I gotta think he would like our situation better with Cam and the potential to become the #1 TE when Greg retires than what Indy has to offer, and I would think we would offer more money than the Pats, if they are indeed interested.  So, I think what it comes down to is his role and whether he'd be willing to be the 2nd TE here for now.

That tweet doesn't give any indication that we are in the running lol. Plus he would be #2 te at any of the other places. Colts have Doyle and Patriots have Gronk.

Seems like a pretty positive tweet after a visit and he didn't sign anywhere yesterday, so...

It says the next move will be my best move that has nothing to do with us lol!!!

free agents usually haven't gotten great news if they decide to keep visiting teams. it's annoying but it usually means they didn't like the numbers and if someone can beat it we're out. there was and is a lot of built in sentiment to consider Carolina, but if we can't make a competitive offer he's not going to take substantially less. the breeland deal falling through probably put an immediate perspective shift back to the CB position. we might be in a holding pattern for a domino to fall there before we can finalize a move with a luxury designation.

It does if he ends up signing with us.  Look, I know it's cool to bash people posting subjective analysis of tweets, but I didn't make an entirely new thread for it.  I simply posted his tweet with possible reasons as to why we should remain optimistic about adding him.

Utilizing existing threads for relevant subject matter does seem to be a lost art.

I know it’s not much info but per PFT we did offer Ebron a deal.

as long as he hasn't signed with anyone else, we still have a chance.

This seems to be good.. is this good?

He's an idiot if he doesn't sign with Panthers given our emphasis on using TEs in our offense, especially in Norv Turner's scheme.

Yeah no one cares about what offense they are in, all they care about is the money dude!!!!

I ran into Bill Voth at Queen City Q yesterday before the NCAA tournament and he talked like Ebron was pretty much a done deal.
