Wow, some respect! 

If I counted correctly, only one other team had as many, the Ravens.

"Defensive end: Charles Johnson, Carolina Panthers
Johnson has 52.5 sacks over the last five seasons -- and yet, he hasn't made a Pro Bowl or All-Pro team. That's baffling, especially when you remember he pre-dates Luke Kuechly and pretty much every notable defender in Carolina outside of Thomas Davis."

 

"Defensive tackle: Kawann Short, Carolina Panthers
Star Lotulelei was supposed to be the stud on the interior of the Panthers' defensive line, but fellow 2013 draftee Short has arguably been more effective. Opposing blocking schemes might have something to do with this. Still, there can be no question that Short has been a force inside in Carolina's rotation. Entering Year 3, he should only get better."

"Kicker: Graham Gano, Carolina Panthers
Gano has been a solid kicker in the NFL for a couple of years now. The problem is, the Panthers' offense doesn't provide him the opportunity to put up the big point totals that other, better-known kickers do. While last year wasn't his best in terms of field-goal percentage (82.9), he was outstanding in 2013 (88.9) -- and in both seasons, Gano led ALL kickers in average kickoff distance."

I wouldn't say that. He really started to tear it up towards the end of the season before he got injured. In addition, when Hardy got suspended, Star barely got any one-on-one match ups.

​He did look better right before the foot injury. But our defensive line got abused for the first half of the year and he's one of the guys we need to stand ground.

​Can you call Charles underrated when he's like the 3rd highest cap number in the league?

I would say TD is underrated just based on the fact that his Pro Bowl is way past due. Snubbed last 2 years imo. But I can understand why he didn't make this list with the amount of exposure he's been getting.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By Icege · Posted

      WR: Nico, Woods, Tank (R) TE: Schultz OL: Tunsil/Howard/Deiter/Mason/Fant vs. WR: Chark, Thielen, Mingo (R) TE: Hurst OL: Icky/Zavala (R)/Bozeman/Jensen (R)/Moton   Panthers' had the better OL before losing BC week 1 and AC week 4 which is kind of ironic considering how in the following year DB went down in W1 and Shaq in W4 resulting in the defense going all to Hell. CJ has done amazing in Houston, but he also wasn't asked to carry Zavala, Jensen, Mingo, Hurst, and Chark as a rookie.

      Past 5 seasons, IMO CJ Stroud and Joe Burrow are the 2 best young QBs that have emerged in the league in that window.  They also didn’t need vets to be their primary pass catchers.  They helped fellow youngsters be great at WR.   almost all the other young QBs have been paired up with vets in their top options….and haven’t been as promising.  so it isn’t Madden.  But the league hasn’t played out as you suggest it does.   Good QBs make others around them better.

      In 2023 their roster wasn’t stacked. They nailed the poo out of the 2023 draft and since they knew Davis Mills wasn’t the guy, they tanked properly to get pick 2. They also took Cleveland’s ridiculous offer for Watson unlike us with Burns. Houston received enough draft capital to jump up to 3 while picking up the right guys in Anderson and Stroud. The Texans were not stacked or better than us in 2023. They had 11 total wins from 2020 to 2022. They didn’t have a terrible front office so they made sure they got their QB of the future while tanking well and getting more draft picks. They are a textbook study of what we should have done in 2022/2023 offseason even though people in here still think tanking is a bad word and our culture would be bad if we were the Texans. We literally had the chance to be the Texans right now and fuged it up.
