    One year left on Okung deal and was about to be waived. Fuck me to tears. This is nothing more than a give away

    Someone go to the huddle and find the post where a guy is saying Okung will make the pro bowl and help the rebuild by netting a 3rd round comp pick. I know it's there

    I said this last week, and people didn’t take me seriously: I still think there might be some posturing/bullshit going on in terms of this being a rebuild. If you pay close attention, nobody in the organization has openly said they’re rebuilding. Basically, the media took the whole Matt rule program building mantra, and desperately morphed that into and an angle.

    Either way, Russell is a damn solid left tackle, and that’s not easy to find. He’s the best one Carolina will field since Jordan . And as much as I like Turner, he was inconsistent, and was about to ask for a big contract. You can find yourself a nice guard, especially this draft, and work a rookie contract.

    Again, keep a very close eye on the next week and a half. Nobody saw this coming this morning. If you start to see a couple more veterans brought in, it’s a pretty good indicator that there is no rebuild, and they’re probably trying to win now
