Quietly, today was a good day in Panther free agency.

  • Roseboom could be a starting LB (over Wallace).  Supposedly, he has excellent range. Seems to be pretty smart.
  • Rico is a nice RB compliment for Chuba.   So you may be asking, "Why did we not just draft a RB?"  People forget about pass pro--a QB's best friend.  "Rico Dowdle, the Dallas Cowboys running back, is considered a strong asset in pass protection, with some suggesting he is more versatile and effective in this area than other running backs..."  (source: the internet)
  • Rico is a good receiving RB.  "Rico Dowdle is a solid receiving threat, particularly as a running back, having shown flashes of potential with 249 receiving yards and 3 touchdowns in the 2024 season, and is expected to be a valuable depth piece in the passing game."  (source: the internet)

Free agent quarterback Mac Jones, who wanted an opportunity to work with coach Kyle Shanahan, has agreed to terms with the San Francisco 49ers on a two-year deal worth $7 million with $5 million guaranteed, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter on Wednesday.

 

Jones, 26, appeared in 10 games last season for the Jacksonville Jaguars, including seven starts in place of an injured Trevor Lawrence. He completed 65.3% of his passes for 1,672 yards and eight touchdowns, along with eight interceptions. The Jaguars went 2-5 in his starts, averaging just 15 points per game.

 

Jacksonville sent a 2024 sixth-round pick to the New England Patriots last March for Jones, who grew up in Jacksonville. He beat out C.J. Beathard in training camp to be Lawrence's backup.

Free agent wide receiver Mike Williams has agreed to a deal with the Los Angeles Chargers, the team announced Wednesday night.

 

The sides agreed to a one-year deal worth up to $6 million, a source told ESPN's Kris Rhim, confirming a Fox Sports report.

 

It marks a return to Los Angeles for the 30-year-old Williams, who spent the first seven years of his NFL career with the Chargers. They selected him with the seventh pick in the 2017 NFL draft out of Clemson.

      Smitty's pre-draft analysis of Nalo

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Smitty has a bit of the Chris Simms complex.  Became a personality, identified a mid rounder who became great (Kupp), and then ran on that juice for a while, as someone with that keen eye for talent.  But over time, the hit rate adjusts and you see he's not the best at it by any means.  And now they have a falsely built-up confidence in their evals and get all defensive about it.   It's all good.  I hope McMillan proves to be a top-WR in the league and shuts these knuckleheads up.  Now it's time to get this team rev'd up for a big improvement year.

      Are the Panthers still coddling Bryce?

      By mav1234 · Posted

      Yards aren't really a good measure alone. He was one of the best QBs in the league in that stretch in most categories but yardage, heh. He definitely was not Burrows but he was pretty good.  Averaged 210 yards passing, 20 yards rushing a game, plus 2 TDs a game.  I'd like to see him continue to improve, but projected over a season those games were just under 4k combined yards (~3600 passing), 35 TDs, 13 TOs. Good for a starter, though not superstar-esque. His raw passing numbers would have been top 15ish, but he proved himself rushing so I don't think that should be ignored.  For me personally I want to see the high level of play over a season. And he still sometimes has several series that are just total head scratchers - I'd like to avoid that, heh.  May be play calling there too.

      Should I buy the huddle?!?

      Tepper hasn't changed, he's keeping his ego and bad decisions out of full public view.  Dave's just making the same bad decisions largely behind closed doors.  He's at least self aware enough to know he's not a fan favorite and that's why he's largely taken a back seat to media exposure.  I serious doubt it was some inflection moment, epiphany, course correction or humbleness that Dave had come to realize.
