While everyone is busy worrying about how Josh will do without the Panthers

Let's worry about who's going to be our Pro-Bowler / All-Pro / Potential DPOY CB next year because our "system" make players into stars

So if that's the case, make another CB one. I fully expect Boykin to keep QB's from throwing his way next season

Sucks to lose an All-Pro Corner with as much fire as Josh.
Can't cry over spoiled milk now.  The thinking on my end is that we'll draft a DE to help our pass rush, and in the 2nd-4th round pick up a capable DB.  If we do something to that extent I believe we'll be fine.

The only thing keeping me calm is my trust in Gettleman.

News flash: the wheels have not fallen off the bus. This team will be fine without 24. I wasn't a fan of his at any point and said all last year he was a ticking time bomb. Since both of my kids went to CCU I caught hell for not being a homer and loving him just because he was a Panther and went to CCU. Dude had one year and 1/2 of another where he played good. Stay tuned, he got his big paycheck, he will fall off in a big way. It's obvious he chased money and attention. He's unstable as hell. Did you watch any of his interviews? The dude is out of touch in more ways than any of us know.

idk why you're acting like Boykin isn't good. he is gonna be killer in the nickel position. 

Yes, but right now he's probably playing outside where he has struggled previously. He's probably going to be the nickel week 1 but right now it should be a concern. McClain did admirably last year considering the situation but he really wasn't very good. Will a rookie be ready out of the gate? Will someone we pickup this late be good enough? Those are very valid questions.

Bene will be outside with either Lou Young or McClain.

    • I've shown you numerous comps for other tackles in the same age and talent range.  His contract, taking into account his age, health, etc.  is the going rate.  It's a fair deal. I've shown you examples of how long it usually takes to find even an average replacement.  Hell, look at every tackle that has ever started for the Panthers.  How many would you consider a success?  They are not easy to find. After everything we've done with this team since drafting Bryce why would we decide to let our best linemen go and add a huge question mark at tackle?   FA is a crapshoot in which any guy available will have cons/issues.  If not, they'll cost a fortune.   Outside of a first or maybe 2nd round pic next year it'll take a few years for a tackle to learn the position at the NFL level.  There are still questions about Icky. Every vet NFL player deals with maintenance.  Between the contract value and history I'm not overly worried about his knee.  I contend his knee issue isn't anything to be overly worried about.  It's not zero risk but it's an acceptable risk.  Every player we draft and every contract we sign has risk.  You're blowing up his own negative words about his knees and ignoring him saying he is healthy and the knee is a non issue.  You have a strong chicken little complex with this team.  Being he has always been a Panther they are very aware of any health issues. We paid now because now is cheaper.  If his knee was really an issue they would have waited.  That tells me it's not the issue you want it to be.
