Josh still hasn't signed tender and could be a no show for Offseason work..


WOW!!

If this is playing out as a Josh wanting way more then Gettelmen is willing to pay situation.. And Becomes more of a rental than a core player we want him to be.. Does CB become more of the number 1 need of this team??

A nasty front 7 can make an average back 4 look really good and that's where G-man is going to continue to build. Norman is a great corner but I really don't see us paying him in the Revis range. 

The 2013 team is a perfect example of this. That secondary was about as average as it gets.

Why would he sign his tender? Once he signs it he is under contract and must me attend all mandatory functions. As long as he doesn't, he can't be fined for not showing up.

Title is a bit misleading. He hasn't done anything to indicate he would miss any team activities at this point.

Yeah, but he's a diva, and divas are a tempermental lot. So we should expect the expected unexpected.

Wrong, it can help but a top 10 QB can negate a pass rusher, Huddlers have very selective memory let me remind of you 2013. A balanced team will always be better. Also later part of 2015 was poo when Bene and Tillman went down. Broncos won because they had pass rushers and secondary to throw of the timing of our routes.

Allow me to remind you of Mike Mitchell.

Our 2013 defense was great but by no means was it good enough that it completely negated our weak secondary. We didnt exactly play against prime time QBs that year. Our two biggest threats were Kaepernick and RW who was in his second year and was more of a game manager. Brady torched us in the MNF game and Brees picked us apart in the SNF game. When you play an elite QB you need more than a pass rush, as the great ones can disect the play before the snap and quicken their release

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
