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.

      Snow in the high country

      By rayzor · Posted

      yeah. winter backpacking trips were the most miserable and amazing experiences. same with the coldest and snowiest hunting  experiences. i love being in it. makes for incredible memories. the worse it was, the more i ended up loving it. made the greatest memories.  i just want to get out of it afterwards.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      I forgot about Jackson...definitely elite.  The sad part of your list is that 2 of them were 'there for the taking for the Panthers'.  Rumor has it that Hurney loved Herbert and was vetoed on trying to trade up.  And rumor has it that Frank & McCown wanted Stroud.  I believe both rumors.

      Snow in the high country

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      I went on a solo elk hunt in the Flat Tops. It was awesomely miserable. LOL It was a late season hunt, I think third season and it was forecasted to snap off cold with highs in the upper thirties and lows in the single digits. fug it, I'm going anyway. They were wrong. The highs were in the low 20s and the lows were in the negative teens. I shivered so hard the first night I thought my teeth were going to break. It was the only time I've ever been legit concerned that I might be in trouble. Crawled out of my sleeping bag and got a fire started and suffered through the night bundled up next to the fire. I slept the next two nights literally wearing every stitch of clothing I'd brought with Nalgenes full of near boiling water in the bottom of my sleeping bag. That was the only way to have non-frozen water in the morning anyway. There was about a foot of snow on the ground and the melt/freeze crust was almost enough to support your weight but you'd go crashing through just as you went or make your step. It was exhausting travel and every step sounded like a rifle shot. Hunting was basically impossible. I never saw an elk in those four days, only saw 5-6 deer. LOL It was brutal but I loved it. Absolutely beautiful country that is never been to before and haven't been back since. I needed that four day complete break from society fighting for my life against the elements. I'm weird like that.
