Last (?) Uni Thread before Regular Season?

Apparently we are not the only one's paying attention.

Lots of info /  links to other teams.  Screw them, who cares.

here is the part about Conor Orr's fave to win it all;

• The Panthers are always good about releasing their jersey schedule before the regular season, and this year is no exception (additional info here):

It's also worth noting that the Panthers paired their blue alternate jersey with black pants -- a uni combo that had never been used before in team history -- for one of their preseason games. Reaction was mostly positive, so it wouldn't be surprising to see this look resurface during the regular season (here's some additional info and a photo gallery):

And in another preseason game, the Panthers tried another previously unseen uni combo: white jerseys with black pants. Interestingly, that look had shown up on a Starting Lineup action figure 20 years ago but had never made it onto the field until now:

Fun fact: Although last night's preseason game was the first time the Panthers have worn white-over-black on the field (left), there was a Starting Lineup action figure with that uni combo 20 years ago. Maybe it was something they were considering at the time but then abandoned.

 
 

Meanwhile: For years the Panthers have used the NFL shield as their midfield logo, but this year they're reportedly changing it to the team's primary logo. They stuck with the NFL mark during the preseason, but the switcheroo will supposedly be happening in time for the team's home opener Sunday.

    • I complete disagree. Who is available is extremely relevant. If you have a couple of players you would be happy with and you can still get them if you trade back, you should do that in a heartbeat. Being afraid that people will lowball you next year is an odd stance. Then you just say no next year, problem solved. In this particular draft you can get a very good player at 46. But to each their own.
    • I don't think so.  Watson really screwed them up.  I see something happening, but do not know what.  Cousins could be had in a trade--but they liked Flacco when he played there.  If it were me, I would not spend the #2 pick on Sanders.  I would go after a tier 2 qb because I think Will Howard is going to start in the NFL soon, and I think Ewers was rated very high at the beginning of the year--he knows adversity and he beat out a Manning while taking Texas to 2 playoff appearances.  I am not good at picking QBs, but I think Howard's run pass option and his accuracy is going to help someone.  Stay in Ohio and play for the Browns behind Flacco--
    • After Cam at #1, there are three or four elite players and there could be a trade--If I am the Giants and I am needed a winning season badly and I have several needs, I might trade out and pick up mid first and an extra second rounder, including a QB--while nobody is going to move up to #3 for Sanders, they might for Carter or Hunter.  If the Giants then move back, Sanders could still be in play.  That could be the trade in the top 3.  New England wants Campbell and I get that; Jacksonville at #5 could move back if someone wants Graham or Jeanty.  But barring some trade, the top 4 are probably locked in. So it could be 2 hours into the draft before we get any surprises. Nice list, by the way--you nailed it.
