Panthers sign LB Billy Boyko

I think some are forgetting that DJ Smith is Luke's backup and a damn good one. I remember some Packer fans wanting him in for consideration of DROY back in 2012 until he tore his ACL. He never got to full speed in San Diego last year, so he should be ready to go this year. I think he has the capabilities to be the next Jordan Senn as someone previously said.

Billy Boy-K-O aka knockout

Billy-Boy K.O. That's great. Wait a minute...your username. Is that you Billy Boyko? You don't get to pick your own kickass nickname. That's not how it works.

Someone has to start a nickname thread, then after 50 or so posts about how lame and/or gay nickname threads are, you will get several posts of really awful nicknames to choose from. That's how it works. (Nicknaming for the LB unit as a whole and front 7 will take place in separate threads.)

    • Bingo. The dude is a baller no doubt and I'd love to have him in a vacuum but like you said he's gonna fetch a haul so the only teams it really makes sense for are teams with an overall good roster who they feel an edge rusher like Crosby would out them over the top in terms of competing for SBs. I'd be looking st teams like the Pats, Bucs, Ravens, Seahawks, etc. It wouldn't be shocking to see him moved. He may be more valuable to a rebuilding team in the form of the draft assets he'd fetch than he is on the field. He should still have several more good years in the tank at 28 but by the time the Raiders can reasonably expect to rebuild he's gonna be on the decline.
    • Crosby will garner a haul in a trade. I would be reluctant to make that trade because of the following: 1. Our overall roster is awful. We cannot afford to be trading away valuable draft capital. 2. He isn't the best fit(IMO) for the scheme that Evero runs.  I love the player but it would really need to be at a reasonable deal and I think he is likely to garner an unreasonable price if he gets traded.
    • In terms of need, EDGE is currently #1. Our pass rush is near league worst levels. However, I don't subscribe to "need" based drafting. BPA all day.  We do need to dramatically upgrade over Scourton, Jones, Wonnum and Umanmielen. That is likely in the running for the NFL's worst two deep. Not saying all those players are bad, but I am saying 100% of those players are 2nd or 3rd stringers.
