Summary

Star softly talking about Smitty and Gross both text their fellow Utah brother welcoming him.

Q: What makes you the best DT in this draft?

A: The coaches drilled me on picking up schemes as well as workouts and was impressive. My strength and explosiveness seperate me from the other DTs.

Q: What do you think about the potential of this team? Playoffs?

A: Definitely, I will step in and help out to make his team get to the playoffs.

What was it like to meet Smitty? Who raved about Star..

Star lit up and laughed how Smitty supports the team and visits regularly and loves to work with him.

Q What do you think about moving so far away to NC?

A: it's crazy but and we do not know what to expect so we will look at everything as we just landed.

Thanks and welcomes..he sounds like a new dad who flew east.

Welcome to the Panthers Mr. Lotuleilei now break some lame NFC South QB azz!

Nothing but a soft Q n A with him but cool to hear the big guy who will be at the Jordan Gross kickball game this weekend.

Missed it. Will definitely catch the audio when it's posted.

These guys, though. They're on talking about trading down, and one of them even brought up the idea of Mathieu in the second.

Lord, they're idiots :wacko:

Pushing for the Honey Badger is as bad as if someone pushing for a HB or DE.

We have 3 Nickle Cbs already lol..with no history of drug problems.!!

It is just the football star syndrome....guys love big names.

I want to make it to the kickball game...as Star tears his ACL running to first base..uggh...sorry the mental picture of this hurts.

I was forced to watch the draft on ESPN. At one point Gruden got agitated when a CB went off the board (think it was Trufant to ATL) and went on a rant about Mathieu - to the effect that he couldn't believe he wasn't the pick/wasn't in play in the first. How whenever he watched tape of Claiborne and Peterson he was more impressed with Honey Badger. Then he went off on some Youtube tangent.

Kiper of all people had to step in, insert a little sanity, and inform viewers that Mathieu wouldn't be in consideration until the end of the second at the very earliest.

Star presser live @6p ET on Panthers.com

Awesome thanks for the heads up. Guy seems like a low key individual off the field and a family man that just wants to provide for his wife and children which is great so it'll be interesting to see how he is in front of the camera with reporters asking questions and what not.

Glad to you have you here Star! Welcome to Charlotte and lets get this Lombardi Trophy!

Cool. One thing that hasn't been mentioned is personality matches. Star is gonna love Rivera as a coach (both soft-spoken individuals).

The thing I'm most excited about is not only what Star gives us now, but what he gives us in the future. The guy has so much potential it's scary.

      Free Agency: QB Musical Chairs

      By MHS831 · Posted

      I will start.  Please do not copy my ideas.  Reminder:  I SUCK at picking QBs, a tradition upheld since 2010. Aaron Rodgers___New York Giants__ Kirk Cousins*____will not be traded until after draft Sam Darnold __Minnesota Vikings (do not rule out a sign and trade) Justin Fields __Pittsburgh Steelers_ Russell Wilson Las Vegas Raiders So after these guys are signed in free agency, the following teams will need a QB entering the draft:   Cleveland NY Giants  (Signed Rodgers but might draft a QB too on day 2) NY Jets New Orleans Indianapolis Tennessee If my predictions are correct(?) two to three QBs could be available for trade.    Cousins could go to Indy, following the exit path for discarded Falcons QBs.  Tennessee will have to pick Ward and they should, which puts Cleveland in a unique situation.  I think the Jets, Raiders (if they don't sign Russell), and Saints will go hard after Sanders, and they will offer Cleveland a lot. Cleveland could move back, grab a bunch of draft capital, draft the T they need, and then they could draft a QB later--it all depends on how much they like Sanders.  The Saints have no cap room (-$44m), so a trade with Minnesota or Atlanta is out.  Moving up to #2 from #10 is expensive in terms of draft capital.  Suck it, Saints. They will have to stay with Carr.  I think that the Jets will trade up with Cleveland to get Sanders and Cleveland will take a T and draft a QB later.  Do not be surprised to see a player like Daniel Jones in Cleveland on a one-year deal if they trade back.

      Fu ck Mikko

      Now Mikko is holding out on a Dallas trade over contract extension. He’s going to fug Canes over one way or another it appears. What we don’t need is a lame duck protecting his health for the free agent market, after paying the price of Necas and Drury for nothing.

      Was listening to Rich Eisen, and he said he was hearing Darnold staying in Minnesota on a large, short-term deal (2 years?) and Daniel Jones to the Colts.
