Kurt Coleman

Recommended Posts

When I was at TC this summer the player that stood out the most to me was Kurt Coleman. First day I get there, early, I go line up at the fence to see if I can talk to some of the players or coaches or DG when they walk by or get some autographs. Don't remember the exact times so I'm making them up but the time spent is more or less accurate. Practice starts at 9:30, Coleman is out there at 8:30 walking by signing autographs for everybody at the fence. Then he's out there doing work for a half hour before any other player even arrives. After practice most players leave at the end to go to meetings, or whatever/wherever but there's a few out there still working. Guess who? It was like this every single day I was there. Always the very first one there working and among the last ones to stay after. Now tied for most interceptions in the league. Thank you Dave Gettleman and thank you Kurt Coleman. Really can't be talked about enough here and he deserves all the credit he gets and more. Have him locked up for next year but I'd like to see us extend him after the year if we have the money and can get a reasonable deal.

This guy is coming on at the perfect time.   Can he be beat..  Yes..  Is he on the level of elite..  Imo not quite..  But hes damn close and he is learning from some of the best in the business.  

 

Offenses have to come in womdering where in the hell they are going to throw the ball.  Id like to see a very strong corner drafted after we adress the o line.   But i dont see it happening for a couple years.   Glad we have him locked up next year.

We all appreciate him, he doesn't get enough love on a national stand point. Does anyone know if he will make the probowl? Kurt we love you.

Last update a few days ago he was #1 vote getter at his position, and it was getting a lot of negative attention!  Folks were shocked he was leading over Honey Badger by something like 20,000 votes.  Getting a pick 6 on national TV and the most watched game of the year so far doesn't hurt!  It's not only us Panther fanatics stuffing the ballot boxes.  This guy is balling.

Josh norman if I am not mistaken was drafted in the 5th, and bene was drafted around there as well.  It is not out of the realm of possibility with G-mans eye for talent that we see another stout corner drafted.

A few comparisons with Mike Mitchell in this Carolina defense, but Coleman is a much better player. An arguable step down in athleticism and speed but better instincts, better discipline, and better ball skills as well. By far the best safety to grace a Carolina roster since Minter.

    • Gronk is the best TE of all time, but he also played with Brady. Clarke was great, but had Peyton and in an era TE's didn't make crazy money. Kittle is great, but the two times he's made the SB, he was still on his rookie contract for one, and the other the 49ers had Purdy on a cheap rookie deal which help them build the rest of the roster. So again, it's not about not wanting an elite TE, of course it would be nice.  But realistically, in today's NFL, unless that elite TE with a top end TE salary is on a team with a GOAT level QB and/or other serious cap savings (i.e. key players on rookie deals), then I think it's not a good use of cap space.  
    • This place was the poo pre tepper with tons of hilarious posters like phillyB. Joined in the 2000s during the 07 season and have been here bitching about this team since. but yeah its sadly been dying a slow death, every time I come to this site I am surprised its still up. I think the 2015 season was the absolute peak, the Panthers and this board especially just haven't "felt" the same since then. Igo should really sell the board since he clearly doesn't care anymore. Also, Reddit blows and the Bryce defenders on there need Jesus.
    • Guessing the price is too rich here given the injury history.  2024 was brutal and production dropped off in 2025 with a few more injuries (albeit rough qb play).    Don’t really understand the narrative that Young can’t benefit from talented upgrades on offense. Especially here with respect to a tight end. Any QB will benefit from talented receivers that threaten the top of coverage and tight ends with skills to stress zone.    The age and injury history, coupled with what he’s likely asking, just probably means we can better spend that money elsewhere.
