Interesting weeks ahead

The last few weeks have been quite interesting with the developments of vets getting cut and we are now starting to see how the roster is shaping up but in no means are the Panthers done yet.

While all indications show that DE Tyler Brayton may not be returning, there is a small possibility that he could return. I do believe he has visited the Seahawks and the Jaguars, all without a deal. Also to note, prior to him visiting Seattle, the Panthers tried to get him back so it isn't like the Panthers don't want him back. So while something may not get done soon, keep an eye this week to see what the Panthers will do, if anything.

Meanwhile, on Wednesday, Florida will hold its Pro Day and you know that day will be all about the "The Golden Calf of Bristol SHOW." All indications have shown that the Panthers are pretty interested in him and are anxious to see what improvements (if any) he has made. I do want to make it clear that this does not necessarily mean that the Panthers will draft him but I do feel that while most fans will not like this move, don't be surprise (if he is still available) if his name is on a Panthers jersey, just my gut feeling.

Speaking of QB, we have yet to hear anything on who will back-up Moore. I do think that the Panthers need to re-sign Josh McCown but so far I have not heard any indications that McCown and the Panthers are working on any deal. This tells me that either McCown doesn't want to be back or the Panthers are eying someone better.

For the most part, this week and ahead will most likely be quiet. We probably won't hear much up until around the week of the draft or there after but I don't think the Panthers are done yet.

I'm assuming McCown wasn't very happy about being put on IR in week 1 and missing his opportunity to step in when Jake was playing badly/hurt his finger. Now Moore has been promoted to # 1, so I wouldn't be suprised if McCown is keeping his options open.

What exactly indicates we're interested in The Golden Calf of Bristol? Between his Wonderlic and his crap throwing ability he's a disaster waiting to happen at QB.

Florida happens to have more than just The Golden Calf of Bristol and I'd be rather ill if he wasted a pick on him.

Every team has some sort of interest in him... Does not mean we'll draft him but the number of QBs they watch may indicate just how much interest we have in drafting a QB.

Now I have heard that Fox and Hurney doesn't believe in drafting a QB because it takes to long to develop, however, this offseason has been full of surprises and with this whole "youth movement" going on, it would not surprise me at all if they did draft a QB and I would even go out on a limb and say that they may surprise us all by selecting one with the 2nd round pick. I wouldn't agree with Fox and Hurney for using our 2nd rounder on a QB but considering how they draft, which is the "Best Player Available", it just wouldn't surprise me.

The only reason why I could see The Golden Calf of Bristol being a Panther is because of his ability to lead a team and just being a team player and motivator. I realize that leadership is not the only thing you need to succeed at QB but The Golden Calf of Bristol just seems like a Fox type of guy. Again, not saying that it will happen because we don't know who Fox and Hurney have in mind.

      Chiefs vs Panthers

      By strato · Posted

      For the silly people that worship her it will be that.  The Coleman 'legend' thing, they did that with another fairly average player that was here and I sort of mocked or questioned the 'legend' status. Instantly caught crap for insulting someone's favorite Panther. So okay, Kurt Coleman is a Legend.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      You allow him to compete--you all are talking as if I am proposing making him the starter. Give him a new coach, new weapons, good OL, etc. and see what happens. You are saying, "Well Damn.  It did not work for 3 guys..."  Right now, our C is injured, we lost our top 2 WRs.  Better question:  If you need a QB, Why would you not take a chance on bringing in a QB who was a former first rounder, a good arm, intelligence, mobility, youth, etc.  and see how he does out of NY--with a better OL, better running game, better receivers.  I am not saying give him a 10-year contract, I am saying give him a chance. You act like there is no improvement on offense here--it was a 2 year process, and next year is year 2.  To me, how can you sit there with Bryce and an opportunity to sign a veteran QB on the cheap comes available and you say--"Not us. We're good.  We are waiting for Patrick Mahommes."  Jone's problem is obviously mental--and he has little support.  Why is this so frigging hard to comprehend.  It is called "bottom fishing" and it is better than sitting in the boat.

      Predictions for Brooks debut

      I think we're going to fall from behind quite early and be forced to abandon the run game.  3 rushes -2 yards 1 catch -10 yards
