Which free agent corner do we bring in??

Josh Norman will get snapped up by San Francisco, Rams, Oakland or another team desperate to win. I wouldnt be surprised if he is signed before the week is out.  But given we are not going to expect a rookie to start at corner through the draft, who are we going to bring in.  Do we resign Peanut if his rehab is going well, bring in another guy like Cromartie on a 1 or 2 year prove it contract, or sign someone younger who is relatively unknown.  Move Boykin to the outside and bring in another nickel guy or something else???

I think we must have something in the works already or we wouldnt have let him go.  What says the huddle???

Is Chris Gamble available? Seriously though, Getty has a back-up plan, he's had one during the entire back and forth with Norman. Pretty sure if he doesn't think there's a decent corner available he will bulk up on the d-line and ensure our pass rush wreaks havoc.

It's a good draft for CB/DBs. Trust scouting and target a couple UDFAs, ie spend a little more money in SB.

Also the result of deep class- cuts. There will be a few players get the pink slip and one or two should be a panther fit.

    • I like what Freeling brings to the table all around. If he is willing to put in the work he has an opportunity to be one of the better Tackles in the league down the line. Hunter Brazzell and Hecht are all premium additions but development from our staff are the key to unlocking them. Hopefully Lee and Wheatley will provide much needed additional depth to our secondary. Beyond that it's important not to get too caught up in draft grades. Many drafts over the years that turned out to be really good were not fawned over with praise. While some that were ended up being historical duds. Panthers fans ought to know this as well as anyone. In conclusion...
    • Maybe a bit of a homer take but I can't give us a grade lower than A.   Freeling was arguably the best LT prospect in the draft.  His athletic ability is off the chart and at 6'7" that can move.  It was a no brainer pick.   Hunter's key word is Violence. Putting him next to Brown should scare an offensive coordinator. These two give Scourton and Phillips plenty of chances to get one on one opportunities. Brazzell, another tall receiver with sprinter speed.  Our WR room is filled with tall talented WR.  Brazzell is going to give us a WR that can take to roof off the defense.  Basically Jimmy Horn with size. W. Lee III has a nickname of the Blanket. (heard this on the Beleav podcast with J. Stewart)  What a great name.  A great value in the 5th round. Hecht A strong, fast and extremely smart center. Many had him listed as the best center in the draft.  He's most likely a starter sooner than later. Wheatley A good safety in round 5.  Someone who could see playing time.   Kuwatch  I love this pick.  At minimum he will be a key piece on special teams and with some good coaching he'll see some packages where he'll play.  His down piece is he doesn't stay up in the running game.  Good coaching will fix this.  He reminds me a bit of A.J. Klein.   All these picks were great value.  I believe everyone of them were graded higher than the pick we took them.   Dan Morgan is IMO doing a great job turning this team into a good team with great depth.
