just edged in there by a cool 60 seconds.  Congrats brotato.

 

here's the snippet:

CHARLOTTE – The Panthers have added depth to the secondary, signing safety Trenton Robinson to a one-year contract.

Robinson spent the past three seasons with Washington, starting a career-high seven games and recording one interception in 2015. His season was cut short after a hamstring injury landed him on injured reserve and he was later released.

Robinson's career totals include 38 games played, 88 tackles, two interceptions and four passes defensed.

The former Michigan State Spartan was originally a sixth-round draft choice of the San Francisco 49ers in 2012.

Robinson is just the tiniest bit better than Goldson. His coverage grade of 43.9 ranks 81st out of 85 safeties, and his run defense grade of 33.1 is the second worst. He’s missed two less tackles (so he still 10 missed tackles), but he’s only made eight run stops. So, there is one thing that Goldson beats him at. Still, not good; especially for the Redskins, whose entire midfield made this team.

So there's that. Was injured shortly thereafter and did not play in the game against us. He is short at 5'9" but he is also fast for a SS running a 4.52 at the combine. I'd be pretty surprised if this guy makes the 53 assuming we draft a another safety and Marlowe makes the team.

Eh, he's referring to idiots on twitter. Most everyone on here understands that depth signings are needed to fill out the back end of the roster. I don't see anyone here questioning why we signed this guy since it is no doubt for the minimum and he could be cut if he sucks with basically no penalty except whatever paltry signing bonus he gets staying on the cap.

Why?

At least I had heard of Gradkowski and Soliai, and I know they're worth their weight in gold. This guy? I am assuming that he is really a diamond in the rough, insurance if things don't work out in the draft, and/or adequate depth behind Boston and Marlowe.

    • Great point.    I would lke to add that there is another QB on the roster who was terrible over the middle--Kenny Pickett.  
    • I don't think this is the year for Carolina, unfortunately.  I think they will have to make a decision on the QB position-all we know is that Bryce has year 5, but a long term deal has not been signed--yet--and they would be smart to take a "wait and see" approach.  I have not kept up, and I see a path to upside for Bryce, but I do not think we have aggressively pursued a QB when our QB was mediocre to worse than mediocre.  yes, his numbers are improving--but he has adapted by eliminating what he does poorly and not improving on what he does poorly.  Just my take and I have no data to support this view.   Basically, we go as Bryce goes, so the approach is not to bring in a QB to have him compete until we find one, but it is to make Bryce as good as he can be--is that good enough? Season ticket holders buy the hope of winning rings, not winning 8 games. Last year, Bryce had a resurgence.  Take away TMac and Rico Dowdle.  How good was he?  I still have hope.  Not a hater of plan A, but a hater because we have no plan B.
    • Yeah man, I've been here for a very very long time. Couldn't even begin to tell you what year. Maybe 2004 or 5? I've never really been super active, just enjoy reading everyone's opinions and discussions. I'll chime in from time to time. I have had a few different accounts over the years. It's always been a fun place for me to check in on my favorite team. Hopefully we can keep the place running for a long while still. I also would like to recommend bringing back the Lovely Ladies page!
