Shaun Smith (DT) released by the Lions...


CatMan72

OK, I checked out his stats, not the greatest in the world, but he does have the size we need inside right now. Plus, if he were to come to Carolina and be a good fit, he is still young enough (28) to keep around a while and develop into our system, which should not be hard at this point.
he never really got a chance until he got to cleveland.

before that he had to climb from being a udfa and going through a couple practice squads.

he's a fighter.

I love a fighter and I don't have any reason not to sign him except for Darby being ahead of him on the Lions depth chart and that I remember Darby from his days with TB and really thought he was solid up the middle. Being in an argument with Bryon Cox should not be a difference maker because Bryon Cox is a jerk.

he's been in the league >4 years, he's fair game

Well then, there is no good reason for him not to become a Panther. As far as the money goes, they can redo his contract. This is a perfect opportunity for him too, because he's pretty much guaranteed to start here.

BTW, this VT vs Alabama game is awesome!

    • I think you have to factor in that we're still not an attractive proposition for Head Coaches. You're not getting the cream of the crop if you fire Canales a year after winning the NFC South, especially considering the situation he walked into.
    • Yeah, I was about to say I hope he's doing okay health-wise because he's not looking good in that pic.
    • Honestly, I dont  think he should be on the hot seat yet. A bad start to next year, then yes. Despite our mistakes on play calling this past season, we played better than anticipated overall. Bryce showed improvement and maturity (although still not nowhere close to our expectations). Better record and 2-15 to 5-12 to 8-9. Despite what we feel the stats dont lie we are improving by 3 wins a year. Could 11-6 be our expectation. That's a high bar but at the rate we are going, thats what its looking like. We all want to see a 5-12 to a 13-4 record but we are methodically moving up. Success doesnt happen overnight (well in most cases).  IMO we are struggling mostly on the defensive end. LB and edge are our biggest weakness. I see Bryce making improvements (even though I was a Bryce hater) next year. Biggest concern is LT on offense. How to fix this? We need a big name edge or to trade up and get a big name edge or LB and pick up one in FA and draft one. Also if in the 3rd we can pick up a TE. Dont know if Sanders is the answer or Tremble (even though I love Trembles blocking and power after the catch). If these two can get their footwork together they would be great. Maybe all they need is a better TE coach. And if Brooks can stay healthy and be the back we thought he could be, man that would be great
