40 mil guaranteed after 30 starts and two major knee injuries in the last 3 seasons? The good stories around Tyrann Mathieu have proved a lot more valuable than his actual production. One of the most overrated players in the league and I'm sick of hearing about him just because he stopped smoking weed. 

So is he or is he not one of the better safeties in football? If you feel like he's a top safety then he got paid accordingly, plus he's the heart of that defense. And out of those top safeties he's  probably the only one that could produce at corner. I wasn't a huge fan of his coming out and I thought it was foolish to struggle with weed in the first place but good for him to be a positive example of players getting there poo together.  Him and Von Miller.

Statistically he's not close to the top safety in the NFL. Plus he's not proven he can stay on the field for a whole season and yet he's probably one of the most talked about players in the NFL and hes been given one of the highest guaranteed defensive contracts out there. I might be missing something but I don't get the fascination.

      What to Consider when you Draft in Round 1

      By Growl · Posted

      fans view “box safety” with the same disdain they have when they hear “game manager” QB.   but there’s a reason most 1st round safeties are “box safeties”-it’s a much longer list of requisite skills to be a good box safety than it is to be a guy whose only real responsibility is to not get beat over the top. Fans crave the ed reed type and as someone who has never been able to enjoy this franchise having a guy like that, I get the enthusiasm-but I’m not really prepared to spend a first round pick on a free safety. If it happens it’ll be fun, it’ll address a need with a good player and that’s well and good. But those guys end up walking after their first contract because their pedigree usually outpaces what their teams feel like they’re adding to their overall win total.

      BREAKING!!! Panthers signing Packers LT Rasheed Walker

      By Basbear · Posted

      Its criminal that the upcoming season is mainly in the tiny hands of BY.  I still member the time I did a full turn, if you member his first off-season from that Panthers all-time worst team....... Answering questions at his first presser, he goes along the lines " I didn't do nothing, no weight room or throwing" " I needed to get away". I was fully out with him, the guy didn't even try to improve his football mind, body, strength, in the biggest joke of panther football. I could not believe it, what a leader or dare say "point guard"(lols @ NBA point guards as a ref)

      I view FS almost as the NT of the secondary. Oftentimes the true measure of his impact isn't necessarily in the plays that he makes but what he allows you to do with the rest of your defense to allow them to make plays. When you have that elite true sideline to sideline FS safety blanket over the top of the defense it allows you to be a lot more aggressive with everyone else. Where as when you have a Nick Scott as your last line of defense you gotta be mindful to not have to rely too heavily on that.
