Why does the press give Jerry Richardson the kid gloves treatment?

The presser was a debacle, yet the press looked more like a room full of scared little kids about to get a stern talking-to by the school principal and were obviously reluctant to ask the hard questions surrounding this team, its future and the priorities of the ownership group.

Ask him whether or not a local journalist has to be impartial when it comes to whether or not the local team wins or loses?

I contend that a local journalist should care whether the team wins. If they don't, they are just hating, because---by its very nature---writing about the local team is not impartial.

A lot of talk has been about Thomas Davis, Charles Johnson, Ryan Kalil, and Deangelo Williams for good reason, what about James Anderson? He had a great season and if TD could get healthy we could have a deep, fantastic linebacking core. With Dan Connor, Nic Harris, and Jamaar Williams coming off the bench.

Realistically if we were to trade Steve Smith, what would be the asking price. It would have to get done before this year's draft in all likelihood, so does that mean it would need to be done by March 1st (the day the current CBA ends I believe)

Has the Panthers front office ruled out anyone yet for the number one pick- I know they said they were considering 5-8 guys, just curious to see if that's changed at all

      Trading #8

      some of my favorite mocks i do are trading back with Indy or Miami, but not Arizona, as that lets Hotlanta pick before us.

      Who Has to Be Off the Board to Trade Back?

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      Carter, Graham, and Hunter for me. Other than that I'm listening to offers. Hell, I'm listening to offers anyway. I'm not doing the Gettleman thing of submitting the pick immediately. If the phones are ringing there's no cost to listening. Maybe someone has an offer so good that I can't refuse.

      These numbers do not measure a player's prime. Do these numbers include OL pulled up from the practice squad for a game or two then cut?  Do they include players who might have been injured or cut for reasons other than they were past their primes?  The average career for an NFL lineman is 3.63 years, and that is because there is a lot of turnover--regardless of a player's prime. In fact, if only 55% of Offensive linemen drafted in the first round succeed, then the failure rates of most offensive linemen drafted and undrafted would be much lower, cause them to skew the average age of the OL.  This suggests that most players' retirement from the NFL is not based on their prime, but other factors.  They are cut, released, injured--and that is based on their level of play compared to others, not their levels of play within their personal skill range--something that peaks during your prime. In this case, I was talking about Moton, an elite offensive tackle, one that avoided the factors that shorten careers unrelated to their primes. I identify Moton as the team's best offensive lineman on an impressive OL--that distinguishes the type of player being referenced, so I did not provide a lot of qualifiers--as you didn't with your stats.   In this article below, one that evaluates established Offensive tackles, it states the following, which supports my comment:  "Most elite offensive tackles start to decline at roughly the age of 32 if they haven’t already."  So to say that Moton was at the end of his prime was not a reach or careless speculation.  If a player has the skill to be competitive and they can avoid injuries, their career expectancy is much higher than an average of all offensive lineman on a fluid roster. https://www.milehighreport.com/2017/2/27/14724674/age-wall-for-offensive-tackles-nfl
