Damn, everyone else is getting better and were just sittin here trying to trade Steve Smith.

 

What do you suggest Gettleman do?

 

Sign Monroe, Albert, Nicks, Revis, Byrd, re-sign Kraken, keep Smitty, and sign Cam, Luke, and Star to long-term extensions?

 

Sounds easy, right?

No it's a huge loss.  He brought an attitude to the secondary.  THAT is hard to replace, but I have faith that in the next 2-3 years we'll find someone. :D

 

Well you don't shell out huge contracts for attitude. We've got enough attitude and leaders on D without him anyway. He's a good player and I would have like to have him back for the right price but I'm happy to let someone else pay him big bucks. He's not elite or irreplaceable by any means.

consider how late in the free agency season gettleman got mitchell. then consider how well he fit in on this defense, possibly even overachieving. then consider the probable compensatory draft pick the panthers will get for him in 2015. prove it contracts have a definite function. happy for mitchell, he was a good dude. i wish him well in pittsburgh.

 

edit: now i'm seeing he got 5 yrs, 25 million. yeah, that'll be a good compensatory pick in 2015. yowsa.
