Tre Boston?

Boston should be starting over Harper.

 

 

"watching harper tackle is like streaming 1080p hd on 3mbps internet connection... one second it looks like it will work, then it freezes, then the video jumps ahead and the player is out of sync, it then clears up to see the td celebration. smh"

He came in at the very end for like 5 plays or so. He made one tackle but the play was called back for holding. I think we need to let him get some time at SS, as roman is sucking.

roman has 3 intos just picture how much boston would have , bostons way better, I thought harper was gunna play agressive like mitchell did but I was wrong

We need to insert these young dudes. Norman too.

But we also need to get away from the 2013 blueprint and realize all it does is get us beat. We need to gamble and blitz. Try to help the secondary out. Yes, blitzing puts more on their shoulders but if we get their it gives them a chance to make plays. The 2013 model just leaves them hanging anyway to get torched

I can't agree more with this.

 

The line isn't a strength this year. We're not going to generate consistent pressure with a standard rush. We're already getting waxed by double digits and allowing NBA style points per game. Mix it up and blitz a lot more, throw out some of the younger guys and try to inject some speed. What's the worst that can happen? We allow 35+ and lose by 20?

I agree! The pass rush is nowhere like it was last season so we need to adjust. I am very disappointed in our safety play. Harper is just too slow. I wouldn't mind those positions to be shaken up. I am not sure how good Tre Boston is but at this point, I'm ready to see a change back there. Also with Godfrey, he is just not suited as a cornerback. He doesn't have that quickness that is needed. Honestly, put him back at safety or something. Anyway, what do I know.

    • That is just Panthers history pain speaking.
    • From what I gather, sure it allows you more room in that you can manipulate the cap more due to smaller prorated amounts to fit salaries in, but for cap purposes, you're still on the hook for the money at the end of the day.    "ChatGPT You said: What are the advantages for NFL teams to sign larger signing bonuses? ChatGPT said: NFL teams often use large signing bonuses as a strategic tool in contracts. While they cost real cash up front, they offer several advantages, especially when it comes to salary cap management, player retention, and negotiation leverage. Here's a breakdown of the benefits: ✅ 1. Salary Cap Flexibility Signing bonuses are prorated over the life of the contract (up to 5 years) for salary cap purposes. This allows teams to spread out the cap hit, even if the player receives the money immediately. Example: A $20M signing bonus on a 4-year deal counts only $5M/year against the cap. ✅ 2. Attracting Top Talent Players love signing bonuses because they're guaranteed money paid up front. Offering a bigger signing bonus can sweeten the deal without inflating yearly salaries. ✅ 3. Front-Loading Real Cash, Not Cap Teams with strong cash flow can pay big bonuses now while minimizing the immediate cap hit. Useful for teams trying to build around rookie QB contracts or with flexible cash budgets. ✅ 4. Locking in Key Players Larger bonuses make it harder for a player to be released early due to dead cap consequences. This can create more job security for the player and roster continuity for the team. ✅ 5. Leverage in Restructures Big signing bonuses create future cap hits via proration. Teams can later restructure deals (e.g., convert salary to bonus) to create even more cap space. ✅ 6. Competitive Edge In free agency, a team offering more guaranteed cash up front often wins the bidding war, even if the total contract value is lower than another team's. ⚠️ Key Caveat: Large signing bonuses increase dead cap risk if the player is cut or traded early."   I think that roster bonuses can be a useful tool if you're trying to keep players in by manipulating numbers and spreading the hit over time, but I don't think that it's something that you want to use unless it's "necessary." I don't know that you want to get into signing rookies on roster bonuses, as the bust rate is relatively high.    
    • not even if that team in New Orleans disbands before the first game.  Saw one 2026 mock that had them drafting first next year.
