USA Today says Brandon Boykin Starts at Slot Corner...

So, apparently I missed something. According to the bright minds at USA today, Brandon Boykin is still on the Panthers...

Quote

Replacing Norman (4 INTs, two returned for TDs) will be a story line that hangs over the defense all season. The Panthers used three consecutive draft choices on cornerbacks. Don't be surprised to see James Bradberry, a long-armed second-round pick, or Daryl Worley, a third-round selection with good size, start opposite Bene Benwikere. After breaking his leg in December, Benwikere is now the top outside corner for the Panthers. Robert McClain, a late-season addition, will figure into the mix prominently. Free agent Brandon Boykin will play slot corner. At safety, veteran Kurt Coleman had seven interceptions, tied for best in the NFC. With veteran Roman Harper not re-signed, expect Tre Boston to start.

    • My biggest fear with Bryce Young is that he will always do just enough to stick around. He shows flashes and then drops a turd so the hopium is always there. Like his career highlight reel if you cut it up to some hype music and did a YouTube video would actually be quite good. His great plays really, really look good. But after that video you look at his yearly averages for completion percentage, yardage, touchdowns, and virtually every other metric and it is meh as fug. Like you know Bryce is gonna be 13/23 for 157 yards a touchdown and probably a pick.  I will 100% give him his flowers for his athleticism and ability to scramble outside the pocket. I haven’t seen the mythical “super processing ability” he was touted for per se, but he has shown flashes of absolutely elite awareness when it comes to scrambling. The little basketball move he does to shake defensive linemen has almost become a signature move. It’s hard to explain but you know it when you see it he stops on a dime and pivots like he is gonna hit a step back jumper and it has gotten him out of a lot of trouble.  I sincerely, truly, as a vocal Bryce HATER, hope that since we are obviously running with him next year the coaching staff actually tailors plays around his strengths. He needs to be in a pure spread IMO. His size is much less of a hindrance when he can play QB in open space. I feel like most of his highlight reel is from scrambles and play action/bootlegs.
