agree, we wanted an owner like this for years.  What's funny is as soon as we get it all I hear is "he's trying too hard" and "its embarrassing".  Season 1 Sport GIF by SHOWTIME Sports

 

I think wanting to pursue big names and all that is great.

 

What I don't like is that HE is the one that is in these meetings and leading the charge.    It needs to be the football guys doing this.   Hire smart guys and let them do their job.  And give them leeway to do things their way.

Also sheena’s tweet about falcons talking about “pieces around deshaun”. Literally every team has done this that is involved. Including us.

 

Yes I was thinking the same, except we are in a better position to actually do that than both teams. This all seems so odd.

Yep. Exactly. I’ll take aggressively trying to build a winner over “we just want to have a big happy family” any day of the week

The truth is right now Deshaun probably is concerned with what community would accept him the most. The answer to that is Atlanta, no doubt. Hard to put a price tag on not getting heckled or chastized when out and about.

not disagreeing with you, but I will say that he is the billionaire.  If I was a star Qb I would appreciate the owner coming to me more than his chronies.

Hey would absolutely get heckled and fuged with in Atlanta too.  Its not like they're some monolithic society down there.  Im sure there are many, many people who live in Atlanta who are disgusted with Watson, just like anywhere else.

Why isn’t cleveland in the mix? Last I read the brass went down to meet with Watson yesterday.

I can respect that too.   The part that bugs me is the reading the reports about him forcing his football decisions on his staff.  That's not using his influence in the right way.   And him not firing Rhule and keeping Hurney but hey, that's another issue.

      What top 10 prospect do you absolutely NOT want?

      By Aussie Tank · Posted

      I don't get the Hunter hate. Just imagine his ceiling if he stopped trying to be this 2way freak and focused on one side of the ball

      Is running back on the table for the panthers this draft?

      100%.  You have to play the cards that are dealt.  Not the cards you wish were dealt.

      By ColumbusCounty · Posted

      I'd say its definitely going to be addressed this off-season.  We went into the last draft with a roster of RBs including:  Chubba, Blackshear, and Miles Sanders. We picked Jonathan Brooks in the second and still signed Rashaad Penny afterwards.  Fast forward....One turned into a top 10 back, 1 is injured/out for most if not all the '25 season, 1 retired, 1 will either take a huge paycut or be cut, and the last is a restricted free agent. We brought in Mike Boone as well. Add him to the free agent list also.  We need a physical option.    Which qualifies:  Ashton Jeanty(Boise St): Overall ranked Top 10. Almost 2k yards after contact, 28 tds. Would take our first rounder. My money would be on an NFC East team selecting him. (97.2 PFF run grade) - 121 forced missed tackles.  Omarion Hampton(UNC): Ranked everywhere from 20 - 59 overall. Consensus #2 back after Jeanty. He'll be a second rounder. 1,222 Yards after contact w/ 15 tds.  (90.5 PFF run grade) - 72 forced missed Tackles Kaleb Johnson(Iowa): Ranked from 38 - 69 depending on which media outlet you prefer but generally #3. 2nd/3rd possibly. 1,060 Yards after contact w/ 21 tds.(86.7 PFF run grade)- 66 forced missed tackles Cam Skattebo: Ranked from the 50's - 104. Every mock I do he ends up BPA at some point. 969 Yards after contact w/ 17 tds(92 PFF Run Grade). Probably the best receiving back of the group. 81 forced missed tackles.  If the '24 and '25 draft classes were combined, IMO the rankings would be, in order: Jeanty, Hampton, Brooks, Johnson, Skattebo. I wouldn't take one high but I'd take one for Chubba and Brooks insurance.
