Take the Covid19 discussion to one of the several appropriate threads dedicated to it.

I'm about to spend some time I could put to better use cleaning up the thread.

If you can't restrain yourself I will restrain you.

At least when we become Panthers North we are signing good players. Vegas is gathering Bills garbage. Whose next Jordan Mills? ?

Panthers North is funny. I moved to Charlotte Nc the day the Panthers played their very first NFL game. Guess what they were referred to as? You guessed it... Buffalo South. Reich, Metzallars and others. Suppose we've gone full circle lol

CJ Prosise is another option that would be a complement to the style and ability of Singletary and a presumed Rookie Drafted RB.

And you understand there is a reason why some players just aren’t a good fit in certain schemes on certain teams? His catch % is solid, he can catch and rush the ball, has good speed, and can be a change of pace to Singletary. 
 

Look at Brown who came in last year and re-defined himself, and Beasley had his best year or when CBs come into the Bills D and have a strong rebound year b/c of the way McD / Frazier use them in their scheme. I’m merely suggesting that a Drafted back like Dillon, Motor and Prosise would provide a full spectrum of the RB position, IMO.

No need to dumpster dive.    The Seahawks sure aren't, since they're looking for an upgrade and might even bring broken down old Beast Mode back for another year.

Reading about all the FA deals across the league, this has to be the weirdest FA offseason yet. The values of many of the deals and the trades seem strangely out of whack with what most people expected. 
 

I don’t know if this is due to the cap going up soon, or the coronavirus, or what. But this has been a bonkers offseason. 
 

for example, I think a lot of folks thought the Quinn deal was way too high and Clowney would be snatched up fast. Some thought the Jimmy Graham deal was way too high compared to what the Steelers got Ebron for. You have DeAndre Hopkins going for nothing, and some people claiming the Bills gave up too much for Diggs. 
 

Gurley signs for nothing in Atlanta, but Gordon got more guaranteed money from the Broncos than most expected. 
 

I think the list goes on and on. But this struck me as a surprising offseason. 

It seems to me the first year everyone is looking for value over splash. Clowney most years would have been day one partially due to splash of signing but everyone seems more conservative. That is my theory on why.

I’ll admit, when I see charts that, in particular look like that, I skip the post entirely.

Former Panther rumored to be a target of ours. Brian Winters may shake loose. Winters is worth a look. 

 

 

Their starter would have been our back up.

This kind of tells me they don’t plan on getting rid of Brissett. 

 

Nor should they. He's a fine back up.

Yep. I have a hard time understanding what the Jets are doing actually. I think McGovern is a good add and I always liked Alex Lewis. They still need two tackles. Fant is not the answer. They must either be working on something big like Clowney or a Trent Williams trade because their offseason has been strangely conservative.

I'd guess they're trying to fill holes best they can now so they don't feel the pressure/need to necessarily go early OL in draft?

 

Also think Douglas might shy away from big spending unlike his predecessor.

They tried to get the better OL FAs and they didn't end up with any of them - they all saw how Gase runs the show and how they mistreated one of their own with blank MRI results and all the other BS. No one wants to go there!

That’s a nice move for the Jets. He’s a decent player. I would have been all about him as the number 2 CB.

 

I wonder if the Jets anticipated that and perhaps outbid the Bills.   It will be interesting to see the contract numbers.

 

Strange, though, that Gregg Williams defense emphasizes man-to-man coverage and Desir is a zone CB...
