CB Teddy Williams Signs With Panthers

[imminent rogaine]

He could have been the difference in the cincy game last year if her were on special teams for Harper.  Obviously he is only going to play special teams. Dockery was hot garbage so this guy won't have to do much to fill the void.

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

I remember that.

Makes you wonder how different our record last year might have been with better special teams.

We wouldn't have gotten blitzed by Minnesota, that's for sure.

Probably would have won the Cincy game to.

So at least 9-7.

having a roided-out punter was a pretty nice luxury back then....hmmmmmmm

it also sucks having to have a specialized long snapper when every lifelong center long-snapped probably every year up til they made the league.

2 year 2.3M contract, very little guaranteed.

 

year 1 900k

year 2 1.4M

prove it contract

 

either he becomes a huge asset on 4-phase ST and doesn't bring the game to a crashing halt in other phases or he's gone. low first year salary so there is no risk at all in carrying him through camp and preseason. if he earns next year's salary there will be no complaints about paying him.

 

remember at post-season presser both rivera and gettleman talked about possibility of full-time ST aces. here is a ST prospect with tools. there will be others, including some UDFA and guys who are brought in closer to camp. the best players will be rostered.

Every single team in the league has a specialized long snapper

Typo

oh no. that wasn't a typo, it was an auto correct. makes one wonder what kinds of conversations you're having so that your auto correct pops up with 'reamers'

[Mother Grabber]

There aren't any in the all-pro section. You should sign up

unfortunately, yes there are

[michaelj]

Do you think they will see which he might be better at wr or cb?

Why? Serious question. It seems like such a bullshit position you could get someone else on the team to do and save a roster spot.

Because botched snaps can lose you games

Practice reasons. Pulling a regular player away to long snap takes away from his game prep.

Injury reasons. Having a regular player do it means he can much more easily get injured doing other stuff and losing your long snapper means you are screwed.

Skill reasons. Apparently it's actually quite difficult to be really great that consistently at it so its specialized and requires constant practice.

Haha I was driving, and had the windows down, someone probably heard it lol

I am trying to understand why we are paying him over 2 million for 2 years.

So is he
