Any thoughts about bringing Breeland back?  

I’d do it in a heart beat. He’s even won a super bowl now & has playoff experience the last 3 years since we didn’t keep him.

He should’ve never been let go especially after his Carolina deal fell through bc he cut his foot. You’d think Hurney & Rivera would want Breeland since they wanted him 3 years but, maybe they wouldn’t bc Bree’s dumb*** went and cut his foot badly enough where he couldn’t play right away after they signed him to a contract.

Sucks, that decision is something to watch. Sundberg is a great long snapper. If we start having problems on FGs bc our next long snapper, Tress & Hopkins aren’t in sync of field goals next year we should all blame Rivera.

Well hey!! Let’s sign that WR & LB or two and overtake the Pats so we can win the off-season again! We took 8 years off of that winning the offseason but we could be back baby! Yeah!
 

And if that happens it means Super Bowl right? 😂 

Yeah but this one actually feels different. Neither deal was monster money. Really Fitz it top backup bottom line starter money unless you factor in rookie deals for the QB. Again I’m not a huge Fitz fan. That said they got a guy who can win games and fill the spot. The CB is a heck of a player. We will see how he fits. But this isn’t the typical win the offseason. I also like that they brought Miller and Sharpe back. Serviceable bodies that can take reps in camp. Also I’d like to think Miller can help AG with his workout regimen as Miller had to adjust to carrying the load and how to take care of his body for the grind.

Right. Like I’m sure the cap space allocated to his basically near perfect production I think we could afford to keep him. Must be a former Panther out there to snag👀👀👀

Yea, some of you overreact a little bit.

Previous moves would have been giving today's Richard Sherman a 5-yr deal for 60M & 25M guaranteed.

Or WR today's WR A.J. Green a 7-yr deal for 75M with 45M guaranteed.

What we are doing is filling needs with vets on 1 or 2 yr deals...to fill holes

Younger guys that are going to be part of the future with a little more years & money.

Way different, than what this team used to do.

Miller is an intriguing signing, before he tore his ACL two years ago he was the Texans bell cow & he was a good running back in Miami too. He and Gibby are a lot a like in that Miller is also a good receiver. 
 

Miller had 3 years over 800 yards rushing in Houston and then he tore his ACL in the playoffs I think or in one of the last games of the 2018 season and missed the 2019 season.

There’s definitely potential there for him to be a solid back up for Gibby and to take some snaps off his hands. I would have to still think at this post that McKissic is still going to be a main focal point of our receiving game & change of pace. Also, I have to imagine that Barber still has a role as a special teams star & short yardage specialist but, Gibby can certainly be a short yardage back too so, maybe Barber is expendable.

I know we say this every year but we still have Bryce Love too. I’m not going to make any predictions but, if Love is healthy he probably makes the team over Miller I would think but that’s a huge question mark.

Yes, he's a knucklehead. That's my thought .

This is the answer. Let that joker play for someone else. In addition to apparently being difficult to deal with, he’s got to be the most penalized player in the NFL. 

In the last 2 seasons, he’s played 27 games and somehow been flagged for 25 penalties (for over 250 yards). He had 12 penalties last year in 11 games — Fuller, Darby, and Moreland combined for 13 penalties in 46 games. 

If you’re desperate for an affordable outside CB who will stick his nose in there and compete — and admittedly win a lot of reps for you — he’s a guy you could look to. But we have two outside CBs that we’re paying big money to, and we also believe our slot CB would be better outside than in. We’re not his huckleberry.

Why in the world would you move on from Sundberg? We haven’t had to worry about a bad snap in like 10 years. Someone from Carolina must need a job. 

I actually tried to google former Panthers LS to see.
