Think this is another one of those threads where we just pick names out of a hat and say we should sign them. Do you even have any clue who this guy is? I told you in an earlier post that we would sign a no name guy who was young and had limited experience but was cheap.

Word from Gantt is that just such a guy is visiting the Panthers as we speak and is getting a physical and will sign shortly. If it is before Kemo is put on IR then we will be losing another player momentarily. Apparently we worked Jackson out recently and put him on the short emergency list.

And how do you know that we have better players on the roster already. You don't know anything about this guy and you barely know about the players on the roster. One thing is for certain, no two things are certain: 1) We're salary cap strapped and 2) Fox has a good rep of picking good players. If you're a fan, be a fan. If you're a @#$%^ shutup

nice. say it with me.......championship.

Seriously, I guess we will have to wait till preseason starts to get an idea of what we might look like on the DL. Someone needs to play above expectations.

come on guys... let's just take a step back and RELAXXXX. if you guys remember when Jenkins went down and Jordan Cartsens stepped in, he was an unproven player that did well for us. We have 4 or 5 guys that can easily be a solid player for us @ that position. The odds are pretty good that one of those 4 or 5 players we have in camp RIGHT NOW could earn that starting spot.

CAMP BODY INDEED! Nothing to see here:

Kind of negates all the positives...

POSITIVES: Explosive run-stuffer in the middle of the line. Quick off the snap, plays with leverage and was consistently focused on by opponents. Flashes power, gets push up the field and is forceful in the middle of the line. Tough, yet also plays smart football.

Kind of negates all the negatives.

lol, Yeah, you could look at it either way, but being that he is only about 311 lbs., I don't think he's as much of a run-stuffer as this 'scouting report' suggests. It may have appeared that way in college, but I don't remember seeing a "stout-against-the-run" DT being less then 325 lbs. or so.

On top of that, his 40 time wasn't great either. I'd like to know his strength numbers though. His size suggests he does play with good leverage ("low man wins"), but we'll have to see. I do just think he's a body though.

Aside from that, I did see some posts on a Chiefs board, and a lot of the fans there thought he played well and "had potential."

Give it a few weeks, we haven't even gotten to the first round of cuts yet. I bet there will a gem on the waiver wire. And sure as you're born, some vet DT is gonna get cut who can fill in for a year. Anyone who we sign right now, I would assume is not in serious contention for the starting gig.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.

      Moton Meets the Press

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
