Panthers are trading LB Denzel Perryman to the Las Vegas Raiders

[B_Eazi]

I've never been more happy to see a player get traded.. I honestly was looking forward to Denzel being on the field along with the rest of the defense. Injuries have always been an issue but I felt like a hard thumping LB was definitely missing seeing as most of our LBs are pass rushers which is why we constantly get gashed on running plays(we really don't have any coverage linebackers either but all are decent in their perspective areas, 1 of the reasons why I wouldn't mind KJ).. regardless immediately recognizing your not getting anything on the field from a player and flipping that and getting something off the field is what a great GM does..something for nothing.. Im officially on the Fitt train and I feel like in the next few years we could be superbowl contenders with this logic..

Lastly one of the best spots that hit the waviers come time is LB(non 3-4 ends). Its like safety and teams count them beans hard at LB.

 

It would not shock me to see perryman cut by the raiders before week 1 either. Now they are on the hook to pay the millions in salary etc, not the panthers problem. 

Last last one KC wright is still out there, according to the top 100 list...he was voted 67. Finesserere has the panthers (I believe) top 5 in cap space. I know it was 3rd before Robby Anderson signing. Still watchout for wright and the panthers *may wait til week one so they dont have to fully guarantee his 2021 salary.....

Do we have room this season to IDK... sign a good LT?

Just to play devil's advocate here, that means 3 of the top FAs signed this off-season at positions of need are injured (Erving), look bad (Elflein), or gone (Perryman). Not ideal.

True, I gave his FA signees 2/10.....but he had a early looking 9/10 draft to makeup for that. Honestly the FA is like the draft, hit on 2.5 out of 7........(two starters and one top backup/ST ace type) thats a good haul, thats the same for FA.

Lesser known fact, majority of free agents take one full year to produce like the team/GM/coaches intended.

Season has not started, but I agree Finesserer has to do better come FA....but ELf/Erv may play out of their minds this year, dont know til the real games start....odds are against them..

Fitts more of a college guy. I think with Dan Morgan coming in as our pro guy, next year we will do better with FA.

Josh Bynes was signed recently. 16 game starter for the Bengals. 99 tackles and 1 sack last year. Should fill in for the cheap experienced depth role we need nicely now.

Wasn't he carted off yesterday? I haven't seen any update on him today. I too thought he seemed like solid depth.

Thank God…and it’s damn refreshing to see!

Hopefully he's ok, Perryman only had 48 tackles last year so not much to make up

Dude, really? Just for the record, I'm "vaxxed"... but do we REALLY need to turn this into political diatribe? His reason for getting traded had not one thing to do with that. Respect peoples "free" choice and free will in life, what else do we have? It's no one's fault this crap was thrust upon the world; it's tough for everyone! Haven't we had enough of being political pawns? I'd love to just enjoy a NORMAL NFL season!!

No vaccine..potential to hurt the team....big time.  I would prefer to eliminate  the potential for 1 idiot to cause the team to forfeit a game.

Also..not being political...the "free choice" of the idiots who are not getting the vaccine are infringing on my rights..I cannot  move freely in my community or participate in activities I enjoy for the fear of being infected with a potentially fatal disease, or one that could have debilitating long term effects.  I am angry that my rights are being violated.

 

Perryman wants to risk being the reason his team loses without even taking the field...I say good riddance.

I'm reassured we don't sit on our dicks anymore when something isn't getting worked out.  This staff looks at reality and not the relationships.  

Gooooood.

Hope he's good to go eventually because this highlight reel is nice for a backup

With that extra 6th we can get another long snapper.

Seriously though, let's take a minute and remember all the good times with Denzel Perryman.

 

 

 

The best post I have ever seen by someone not named SCP.

And that 6th rounder from LV could feel close to a 5th round pick given that the Raiders are in the AFC West with the Chiefs, Chargers and Broncos.

It must have been a personality thing that they wouldn't have known about until they fit him with the team.

Some guys just don't mesh with the culture. Sometimes those guys do more harm than good keeping them around.

Flush any player who refuses the vaccine. Enough. No one is free in a society. We live in a society that is built on the smart keeping the foolish in line. Paranoid selfish idiots should have the LEAST "freedom" out of anyone. What could be worse for our society than people who are wrong and unintelligent but convinced they're right? Nothing when there is a crisis that depends on them making the right decision. Paranoid tinfoil hat wearing dolts should immediately be shipped to the local mental institution for the vaccine. People are dying and I've had enough.

A great tweet....
