Alan "Blue Balls" Ball leaves Panther offer on table

[PantherFanOne]

Until proven otherwise,it sounds like a solid signing.

I'm not sure I get what you're trying to say here.

He said it 3 times already how do you not get it? Does he have to repeat it a fourth time?

[The Huddler]

I hate that i google him and search him on youtube, and its a bunch of soccer BS and a white guy who looks constipated

[Growl]

I just hope he can Ball.

Here's a good article on him. It says he was ranked 10th in coverage corners in 2013

Also because we will likely draft a DB, I look at this signing as insurance in case a young DB we want 1) isn't there, 2) we draft a young DB that will need some time to be ready. On Paper Ball 6'2, Norman 6', and Bene 5'11/6' (depending where you look), with a 3 Safety rotation of Boston, Harper, Coleman things sound a bit more solid than this time last year.

Factor in we'll likely add a DB/S via draft or UDFA or both the room for potential is nice with proven commodities already on the roster.

I agree 100%

Am I the only person who really liked what Colin Jones had to offer at the nickel?

 

I too loved Colin Jones in at nickel. Smartest thing I saw McDermott do last year. Because so often when you have your nickel package in, the offense goes to hurry-up, thinking you've gone small/CB for your nickel back & tries to take advantage of that with runs & options. With Colin in & not being able to sub, we effectively still have 3 LB'rs in to stop those plays and it works really well. He's also fast enough to stay with a slot receiver when he needs to, removing that WR option. I hope they don't mess with this package.

 

But I'm all for competition at all positions & this sounds like it would be a good signing.

Sure up the outside and let Bene play the nickel and the days of bend but don't break are over! I garuntee Bene will be tops in the league and our defense will be back in the top 5

Top 5 if we can find a DE to keep up pressure. Look at the tape against Seattle. Wilson did not have any pressure in that game, without another pass rushing DE, top five is a stretch.

LOL at all these folk talking about "special team depth". You don't pay 2 million for ST depth, you pay 2 million for starters.

Good point, I think I'm Over playing that Kony will come into his own this year but he is prbly still a year or two away, but here's to hoping better corner play will give the Dline more of an opportunity

3 sacks in his last 3 games.  I'll take a sack a game in 2015.  That'll work.

If big frank can put down the bong he may be the answer.

Maybe this will free up Bene!!

Well 1st my huddle app was giving me an error message, thus the double post.

2nd LOL at the expert amateurs that exclaim how much a professional GM is overpaying a player. Especially when the provide the salary said expert amateur assures us they "deserve".
