3rd oldest team in NFL

[Jackie Lee]

Would you expect any prime age free agents to sign with us this year? Aside from the overpaid guys lol. Clowney is like the only borderline decent FA contract for his value but he's 31 and his family is like 30 minutes away so that's a bit of a wash

I mean, some of y'all keep saying "overpay," but I see it as the cost of doing business. If you want the best, you have to pay them. If you want a hope and a prayer or an old guy with maybe some juice left, you get a discount.

The difference between the youngest and oldest team in the league is 2.1 years. Doesn’t seem all that significant.

Non issue

I heard Vinny Testaverde came out of retirement and we inked him to a one year deal.

Panthers over 30.

I don't have a problem with any of this.

It's temporary re-tool. The mixed of vets and those big FA signings is to see what Canales and Young can do together. Can they build around Young and does Canales have what it takes. They gave them enough tools to give them a chance to be competitive. All smart moves. If it works out that we have 6 to 8 wins and a competitive team, they can continue to build around young and give Canales what he wants/needs, even if that means 15 or more new guys next year.

3 of the 4 oldest guys don't really count.  Long snapper, backup QB and punter.

Now do the median

You are so close to getting the point. Dancing all around it.

JJ, Shaq, Dalton, and Theilen account for a lot of that.  

Probably not that much 

49% of the roster is 27 and above

It’s no big deal but I think it does sort of highlight how the Panthers live in a no man’s land in terms of vision and planning.  The win now and rebuilding all at the same time approach which has been the “plan” ever since Rhule.  

we should of rebuilt when Ron left.  We never committed to such

Also

2020 draft- Brown is the only 1 of 7 still on the roster

2021 draft- 4 of 11 still on the roster

2022 draft- Ickey the only 1 of 6 still on the roster

2023 draft still too early to tell.

Does this count our HC? 

 

We're a pretty young team with a few exceptions.
