I know it's trendy to snicker at the Panthers for the lack of spending but I see a method to their madness. If we get a season next year and the cap is in the neighborhood of what the experts are saying the Panthers will have 60-70 million to spend. And it could be more. If there is a next season we got an awful lot of young, real good, guys we are going to have spend a lot of money on. So when you look at what they have done here they may have done what everyone said they couldn't - find a way to resign all the young stars they need to.

That's what was stated on the original piece I found out about this on; The top free agent signings throughout the NFL, and Francisco was the Panthers' big-name free agent signing this year. That says a LOT about...well, a lot of things. I've got my fingers crossed in the meantime that Francisco either recovers enough to participate and make a dent against the Steelers, or that <em>someone</em> finally stands out between now and the regular season.

When your highest profile free agent may not make the team, you know you didn't make much of a splash in free agency. Let's hope that this group of young, no-name players can surprise some people, (including, me, I guess). Good read, Eric.
