Oh good.I was worried the Soilai signing meant we had decided to move on from him due to him wanting too much money or something. Even though that is certainly the reason he hasn't re-signed here yet at least we are keeping open a dialogue.

This guy single handedly allowed us to rest Star when he was injured and not rush him back until he was 100%. Although there was a drop-off, I don't think it was anywhere near as much as many of us expected when we heard Star was out for a few weeks. He deserves to come back and be a part of the rotation. His ability to be a wall in our defense allows Short and CJ to do wthat they do best.

Damn, I forgot Love was 29.  Would like to see him back, but a rookie DT to groom (and be an insurance policy) would be nice as well. 

Would like to see Gman take a DE in the first couple rounds then a DT later on as an insurance for Star since there is a chance we may not be able to keep him and KK short on long term deals.

I haven't had time to look, but didn't Soilai have some injury issues?  Could be another reason to continue talks with Love.

Gettleman says Panthers are still talking with free agent DT Kyle Love.

 

David Newton ‏@DNewtonespn 31m31 minutes ago

The Panthers continue to talk to veteran defensive tackle Kyle Love about bringing him back.

 

Would love to have Love back in the rotation.

A little reserve this time on the announcement Leroy ;)

If we sign Love, that will A) solidify our DT position, B) help narrow the draft field and help with prioritization.  If signed, this will probably signal DG's view of the DTs in the draft.  Either the value will not be there by the time our name is called and DG will not reach or like in the past, DG thinks the value of what we signed is greater than the value of what is in the draft or future potential.

Has only missed 4 games total in the last 6 years, but I believe he went down in the week 16 game against the Panthers and didn't return last year so you might be thinking of that. It was related to something he was dinged up with at the end of last season, but I really don't remember what though I want to say a muscle strain(hammy or quad). I think they then shut him down for week 17 with nothing to play for.

Oh, okay.  I was mistaken then.

      Lil Stanky 100% in the dot tonight... And our 2nd line has been our best offensive line this season. Maybe our 2C really was on the roster this whole time...?

      BREAKING: Panthers re-signing Nick Scott

      By flagfootballcoach28 · Posted

      That’s a grade I kind of expected tbh. I’m not a huge fan of NS, but he’s not as bad as what the huddle says he is minus the horrible game he had vs the Rams. I’ve always thought he’s often used as a scapegoat. The improved pass rush should hide his deficiencies a little bit better if he’s the game one starter. FS might have to be a position we punt on this year unless Thieneman falls to us at 19. The reality is, you're going to have a few average players in certain spots for a team with as many holes we had before free agency started. You can’t sign everyone.

      I am by no means trying to say he's a world beater. I'm saying it's trending in the right direction. Especially when measured against himself.i think the team feel the same way or else they wouldn't have picked up his option. Plus I think there is a new idea in the NFL about these young QBs. Teams give up to soon. Browns gave up to soon on baker same with the jets on Geno and darnold. Maybe they are who you thought they were in the draft process and they need more time to develop than you originally planned. Either way. I do think he is as capable as darnold is as far as you can win a championship with him. And something he does have that darnold doesn't is he is clutch.  If I need one more drive and 2 mins to go I'm betting on Bryce and I am far from a homer, just going off his game winning drives. He has that dog in him on the last drive.
