Responses I was expecting when you know I'm right.

dude, you contradict yourself at every turn. you trip over your own feet on every discussion. I didn't realize you were just graduating high school, so I'm trying to take it easy.

stop. just stop. lol

So I read the initial post and skipped everything else, but sounds like we're still trying to be cheap.

More or less, just depending on the player. From the OP, it looks like the Panthers will do almost anything to get Coefield. They may go after a big CB like Joseph, Wright, or Taylor; or maybe they just grab a guy that they think can fit in and do a decent job. As far as the wide out position, it sounds like they will either go for Braylon Edwards or stick with what they got.

Who remembers the big FA additions the offseason before the superbowl run?

Stephen davis.

That is bargain shopping people. Finding talent that fits the team, makes an impact, and doesn't break the bank.

Don't spend money just to spend money.

Find the player that fits the role needed, and make a move for him.

Most fans can't even grasp that concept.

who said anything about spending money just to spend it? of course you find the right fit, otherwise it's a waste of money.

the issue i have is that you can't say you are going to go bargain shopping and then say you are going to find the right fit. as soon as you say you are bargain shopping, that immediately limits your ability to improve the team and find the true "right fit". it's the right fit with an asterisk.

i could understand speaking this way when you are talking to the press or to agents because you don't want to tip your hand, but this isn't the case. this is some leaky faucet within the organization talking to a friend over lunch.

am i suggesting that they go out and just throw money at every shiny big name? nope. what i am saying is that they should go out and get top talent at each of the four major holes (DT, CB, RG, WR). not the top talent, but a top talent. you get one that fits what you are trying to do here, understanding that you may have to open the pocket book wide to get it.

i don't question the team's commitment to getting better, but i do question their commitment to pinching pennies unnecessarily. they put themselves in a great financial position, but for what reason? so they could keep cheap or so they can improve the team? that's what i'm having a bit of trouble with.

am i thinking too much about this? of course, but it's a message board, that's what happens.

i just want the team to do what it takes to get better. they've gotten off to a good start. i don't want them to handcuff themselves when they don't have to by "bargain shopping."

So now that you are out of school, does that mean you are going to be on here more?

please god no

one of my Steeler friends once told me last year that she'd rather have The Golden Calf of Bristol over Rothlisberger because he's a better QB.

if we don't educate the youngin's, who will?

then we have a bunch of THOSE fans...
