Falling in Love w Players

This is a problem with the Panthers organization and its fan base. The team is not run like a business and therefore never achieves the level of success that winning businesses do by making the touch decisions. From Delhomme to S Smith to DWill, we have seen huge contracts offered and guys staying past their prime or at least past they point where they have any trade value to better the team. When it is mentioned on the board, people lose their lunch.

Well, I will mention again. Stewart has like one year left on his contract. No way in our pass happy offense and with the team looking for a scatback that we should sign him after next season. First, we cannot afford it, second, it is stupid money to spend when it is not being utilized. If we are going to get to the point where team means more than individuals and jersey sales, we need to trade Stewart to the Bengals or Browns for either of their second picks in the first round. They will be able to fill a huge need with their second and pick up a proven back who is clean off the field and better than anything they can find in the draft.

With our second pick in the low twenties, we can pick up Burfict ILB, Dennard CB or the WR from Baylor. With our first pick, I think OT Martin is about all that makes sense.

Second rounder will be either LB or CB, whichever we do not choose at the end of the first.

we won't and we shouldn't draft burfict.

bad idea.

too much of a headache/headcase/penalty machine.

that dude will lose games all on his own or get kicked out of games that you depend on him for.

we don't need that. his production won't make it worth it. he's not ndamukong suh or even james frikkin harrison.

we can get guys that are just as talented without the baggage that will certainly come with burfict.

Most fans aren't really cool about trading players, especially players that have a lot to do with our team success. I agree there is no way we can pay Stewart and D-will top RB money. One of them has to be traded. I think it will probably be D-will and they sign Stew to a nice contract. The best you will get for D-will probably be a second and a fourth.

People say we don't use/need 2 RBs but between DWill and JStew that's 1500 yards of offense. What happens if one of them gets hurt? If we don't keep JStew, who is DWills backup? Goodson has done ok in pre-season and as an occasional backup but is he good enough to spell DWill every game? Idk if he is...

Running backs are a dime of a dozen. You can find a decent RB all the time. The easiest position on the field to play. Not saying all running backs can be good because they can't. You have your above average back and you have your Star RB like AP, CJ2k, Arain Foster, and Matt Forte. The key is if you look at most teams in the NFL they have a pretty decent RB maybe two.

The only one that applies to is Delhomme.

What do you think the did out of Oregon could do in our offense? He will be a second rounder or worse. Much, much cheaper than Stewart and equally explosive if not more.

RB's can be found, no need marrying one for life. This is not the seventies. The rules in the NFL are formed to make it a passing game.

    • It's a decent vid with compelling reasons for his opinion. But, my thing is is that you simply can't draft McMillan thinking he is a surefire WR1. There are questions. His 40---rightly or wrongly---will play a part. I'd think that his splits (which will speak more to his game translating to the pros in my mind) are more important.  As much as you're trying to sell us that McMillan is a don't-overthink-it-type-of-player, I wouldn't say that's the case. Workouts will play a part in all of this.  At this point, I like the thought of Tetairoa. That's as much as I can give you right now.
    • If Canales has helped Bryce a “poo ton” and this is what we have then what’s the fuging point? And the offense wasn’t humming with Dalton in there either, except against the raiders who’ll likely be firing their coach after this season.  XL is probably the fourth best looking receiving option on the team right now behind thielen, Coker, and sanders. I don’t think anyone would disagree with that. Who cares about total receiving yards when everyone else has missed time and there’s like 180 yards of receiving a game to go around   and lmao they were “believing” shut the fug up. They lost and for the most part those games were all the defense shutting down the other team. The chiefs turned around and gave up an actual impressive stat line to Aiden O’Connell and I not even the most delusional raiders fans think that means anything. Bryce did nothing against the eagles, the Bucs are a mash unit, and any one of us could have done that Bryce did against the giants and saints.  And as far as who they’d get, they didn’t have any trouble hiring the guy you’re tripping over yourself to defend. They also could have hired Dan Quinn, who’s actually succeeding with a young qb.  And people are acting like the risk of getting paid for not working for five years is a negative. Canales is going to spend the next half a decade getting paid to watch porn in his Bible camp office.
    • the Dallas game definitely quelled the hype. his biggest issue will always be his size, and that shows when he gets sacked. he's simply not big or strong enough to protect the ball. even in the KC game, he fumbled it on a basic sack and thank god icky landed on it. INT's are going to happen, most fans don't understand that tipped balls and wrong routes account for most interceptions. but the wet-bar-of-soap type fumbles upon contact are a huge reg flag. the common theme with players like Darnold and Mayfield who previously played for us and are now excelling makes me want to practice patience more when it comes to the QB position. I think Bryce bought himself another season, perhaps with more weapons. I do like the idea of adding a QB whether that's a FA or mid round rookie. if the same mistakes occur next season and we see no further growth or most importantly, wins, then it will be time to move on. just a quick reminder though, football is not an individual sport. QB is just one position, albeit the most important.
