Here's what caught my eye:

- Remmers more effective in pass blocking than run blocking (bodes well for Cam's strong side protection)

- Josh Norman's penalties cost him -3. Would like to see that drop this year with his increased maturity and decision making.

- Norwell is a road grader when it comes to run blocking. Turner is a better pass protector.

- Philly Brown 1.5 in the running game? Did he run that many sweeps/reverses?

- Kawann seems to have developed into a better player (statwise) than Star. Maybe because Star's role is as more of a space eater?

- Cason -14.7 pass coverage rating. ughh. dude was leading in votes for CB at one point last year.

Philly our best WR according to PFF...

 

And our best in pass rating is Bersin, with 0.1.

 

Wow were our WRs bad last year.

Well... I know Kelvin had some drops and not enough YAC.  But still I'll take his 1008 yards, 9 TDs, and his dangerous playmaking ability.  If that's "BAD" I'm not too worried, especially remembering how often he was double covered.  With more receiving threats, we should be just fine.

I was surprised at the negative grades for Ealy, Horton & Addison.  I didn't realize that CJ was the only one of our primary DBs last year (obviously not counting Hardy or Alexander) with positive grades.  I had assumed we were ok, not great at this position.  Now, it's looking a little weaker than I thought. 

Would love a more knowledgeable commenter to help put these stats & the currently understood strengths/weaknesses of our DBs in perspective.  Thanks.

And here's to hoping Big Frank will play lights out this year!

Addison is mainly a pass rusher, hence his poor grade in the run and pass coverage. Horton is the opposite, providing solid defense against the run, but almost nothing in the way of pass rush.

the ealy thing is me mighty concerned.  someone tell me why I shouldn't be.

Rookie DE's rarely have a strong first year. Especially with how bad the secondary was behind him most of the year.

Ealy's first year: 4 sacks, 1 FF, 12 tackles

Hardy's first year: 3 sacks, 2 FF, 30 tackles

CJ's first full year (08): 6 sacks, 1 FF, 25 tackles

I was just commenting on PFF's grades, not my opinion.

      BREAKING: Panthers signing a new QB

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      That's true. I did actually mean the FO but that's a fair point.

      A guy like Jones at average pay is going to not work out IMO. The 20 million difference to spend elsewhere is too large of a hurdle when the QB plays good but not carry the team good. They are in the sweet spot currently at cost to value with him. Darnold is pretty much the same. Good in a limited role but lean on him and he will fold. Tua didn't beat good teams when it had to be on his back to be the difference, and that was true when his team was stacked. All of Murray's talent has resulted in 1 winning season for them and 1 wildcard loss. The NFL has an overpaying mediocre QB issue. At the right price it's not an issue but can be a positive. It inevitably leads to a worse roster which becomes a poo show. NY gave up their RB because they paid Jones and proved that. The first is most likely leading to the second. Baker is bucking that trend but he was always the best of any of that group, even if his time here was pretty much the worst setup possible.

      Bills predictions

      If you only factor passing, there is a VERY mild argument Dalton is more efficient but it's ignoring the threat Cam was as a big play literally every snap. With his feet OR through the air. Dalton was never that type of player. I would say Dalton over 200 is a very safe bet.
