Wasn't the Sam Mills thing forced by the NFL, I think that it allowed the Expansion Teams to choose from the best players on all teams. Correct me if I'm wrong.
I received this in my email box. I assume that the person meant to post it since it came right after the member registered. Feel free to make your own interpretations:
I would not mind seeing Kikaha or Anzalone 'defect.'
Thanks for clearing that up for me.He wasn't drafted in the expansion draft he was signed as a free agent.

Carolina Panthers[edit]
Mills became a free agent at the end of the 1994 NFL season. The expansion Carolina Panthers offered him a two-year, $2.8 million deal. While New Orleans matched the offer, Mills was displeased that the Saints did not make an offer until the Panthers forced their hand, and opted to sign with the Panthers.[citation needed]
Mills became a veteran leader for the young team, the only player to start every game during the Panthers' first three seasons. In a 1995 game against the New York Jets, Mills stepped in front of a Bubby Brister shovel pass and took it 36 yards for a touchdown, sealing the Panthers' first win in franchise history. His career rebirth gave him a fifth Pro Bowl appearance in 1996 at the age of 37 which, at the time, made him the oldest defender to be invited to a Pro Bowl. He retired after the following season.[4]
This x 10000.Sam Mills to Carolina bothered me more than all the Atlanta defections combined.
