    State Of The Franchise: Carolina Panthers

    New user on here but piggy backing off the Falcons & Bucs State Of The Franchise threads figured we get a Panthers one going. So at this point we have seen moves that most of us have scratched our heads about by our GM this off-season thus far after what seemed like a brilliant off-season last year. Releasing the teams all time best WR in Steve Smith after him & Gettleman's relationship seemed to fall apart, seemed to become personal, and probably some due to his decline in production even though he was still the best WR on the roster and should have retired here. We have watched them let players walk or sign elsewhere due to our cap situation with all of our other three WR in Hixon, Ginn, & Lafell. Then Mitchell, Captain, Hartsock, Senn, Florence, and others. Add in the retirement of LT Jordan Gross, and Wharton in FA unsure still about his future. We look at a team who finished 12-4 NFC South Champs and the #2 overall seed who appears to be in shambles on the offensive side of the ball and the secondary again. Which some we can partly blame the Hurney regime over due to his massive contracts to Williams, Stewart, and Johnson and putting our cap in this situation in his final years with us. Now as of today we look at how Gettleman is filling these rolls and take our guesses of what they are thinking going into the draft to fill spots. Up to this point we have filled some of the WR roles by replacing some spots with former Bucs WR Tiquan Underwood 27 years old, former Steelers WR Jerrcho Cotchery 31 years old, and former Eagles WR Jason Avant 30 years old going a lot older then I thought they would and a young former Georgia WR King & young McNutt sitting on the roster. Missing out on LT Collins in Free Agency as he ended up with the Bucs & WR Nicks after he ended up with the Colts. Then signing former Rams pass blocking TE Mike McNeill 26 years old and on the verge of signing former Ravens TE Ed Dickson 26 years old. Then we turn to how we filled roles in the secondary and defense resigning CB James Dockery, former Saints Safety Roman Harper 31 years old, and former Cardinals CB Antoine Cason 27 years old who has played under Rivera before in San Diego and had his best years under Rivera in SD. Some of the best moves of the off-season though imo tagging DE Greg Hardy ensuring he returns in 2014 while they continue to work out a long term deal to lower the cap hit & avoid the tag. Then the other day resigning DT Colin Cole ensuring our entire D-line returns from 2013 which should hopefully do like last year free up LB & help our patch work secondary. With rumors floating on Godfrey being on the cutting block to free up $5 million in cap as a June 1st cut and former Flacons CB DeCloud visiting as a possible fill in for that role. Rumors of moving Byron Bell possibly stepping over to LT after how poorly he played at RT. There is some hope in that secondary with two steals from UDFA with Lester & White who could do nothing but improve from last years rookie year. Now that most of the moves have been outlined. I am trying to stay optimistic about the future and where we are going even though after last year it seemed we were only a few pieces from making our first back to back playoff appearance in franchise history and maybe a chance at Super Bowl run. With all that said what do you think we should do in the draft, trade up, trade back, stay at 28 in each round? Where should we look to fill roles in the draft? What could they do with the draft that would make you feel better after and more optimistic we would have a chance at another good season?
