Panthers Interested In Eric Decker and Hakeem Nicks

[pantherclaw]

Why ANYBODY would believe the Panthers would leak info on anybody their interested in, is beyond me.

The media won't kniw ANYTHING until a player us in to visit; period.

Even then it's ni guarantee that we sign them.

Yeah. This GM thing is a piece of cake. I don't see what the big fuss is.

easy peazy. find the oldest guy cut him. Have a press conference and do your best Golden earring impersonation and send all the other players a message coming in from above.

[heel31ok]

Gonna have to wait and see. I think he prefers winning. As competitive as Smitty is, (and that's part of his greatness) I'm sure there will be moments.

It's a Panther fault they keep running Smitty out as the #1 every Sunday. They've needed to address the position for quite some time.

 I agree with that. SS agrees with that. He knows everyone will benefit from that.

offense:

-let Ted Ginn walk

-sign Hakeem Nicks

-Steve Smith takes a pay cut or is released

-sign starter quality free agent tackle

-resign Travelle Wharton

-cut DeAngelo Williams unless he takes enormous pay cut

-draft Kelvin Benjamin 1st

-double dip in OL in 2nd & 3rd

-whatever else G-Man sees fit

-tell Mike Shula to take the rev limiter off his Ferrari QB

defense:

-resign Mike Mitchell

-let Captain Munnerlyn walk unless he's cheap again

-cut Charles Godfrey unless he takes a drastic pay cut

-restructure Charles Johnson

-lock up Hardy long term

-sign a few vet DBs

-whatever else Rivera wants for his defense

WR1: Nicks

Slot: Smith

LT: free agent

LG: Silatolu

C: Kalil

RG: Wharton

RT: 2nd rd pick

TE: Olsen

WR2: Benjamin

QB: Newton

RB: Williams

Reserves: Stewart, Tolbert, KugZilla, 3rd rd OG/OT, McNutt, King

Even with Shula's ball control offense that's a top 10 unit. Reliable oline & very good skill players across the board. Turn SuperCam loose with that offense & he'll make a run at his first MVP.

Then when you pair that offense with a Rivera/McDermott defense, we be Riverboatin' sum' bitches all goddamn year.

89 is my all time favorite but Id be kidding my self about 89 being better than Decker right now. It's the truth.

 

Are we talking about the Eric Decker that disappeared in the Super Bowl?

 

Decker may be marginally better now, but I still know that Smith can outperform Decker on any given Sunday. Just imagine Smitty playing with those guys. No way you will convince me that he wouldn't be a nightmare..

 

Anyway, Steve Smith was a number 1 for many years. Eric Decker will never be a number 1 because he just doesn't have it in him.

we cant afford to tie up that much money into one position (DE)

the truth? it is speculation. his mo is to come back strong after such a trend. See easy.

 

 looking at the big picture why would we settle for Decker or even Nicks for that matter? This is another point for keeping SS. Some want to move on so badly they would settle instead of keeping him another year and having a chance to get some better players coming along. Long term we would be better off drafting several WR's and develpoing them especially with the depth of this draft, which is another positive for keeping SS.

 what we are paying him this year is basically a wash vs the cap. The money itself is not an issue and will not be an issue. it is about the cap. Everybody is over paid for the most part in the NFL so I don't see the real issue with the money itself.

 

there isnt speculation when all signs and the current trend are all going in the same direction, I'm simply stating the situation as it currently stands, while you are saying he's going to make a come back next season, all I'm saying is based on what? and you have litterally no reply to that.

 

 

What's happening to Smith at this point in his career isnt anything shocking or even out of the norm, infact it's par for the course, and you're acting the it's a abberition.

speaking to soon on that buddy. if hardy signs a big contract and is not traded than I will concede that. until then.......

[Doc Holiday]

sounds like you're living in a dream world thinking that cutting him would do us more of a favor financially then it actually would. Sorry to disappoint you but doing it this yr would only save us 2 mill while we'll still be paying him 3 mill while he's somewhere else. then we may jus end up w/ another Nicks who can't score TDs, a Decker who we find out really is an overrated #2, or a rookie who I'm sure wont catch on right away. But if that's fine w/ u then so be it. Your own prerogative. *shrugs*

 

watch 10 years of NFL football and get back in touch with me and tell me if you still think that.

[top dawg]

Why does everyone keep thinking that CJ is going to restructure? The guy just restructured his contract during last season.

hardy is a Panther under contract.

Ignore that all you want.
