DG: Bradberry "more than held his own" on Julio Jones and Mike Evans at end of season. I'd agree with that.

 

DG: Excited about the continued development of the rookie CBs. Points out Bradberry was matched up on Julio Jones and Mike Evans late in yr.

Gettleman says every year is different in free agency + #Panthers will use every avenue to build team: “We’re going to shop intelligently.”

 

Panthers will have the No. 8 pick in the draft and DG believes the team will get a quality player. Likes CBs, S, DE and RB in the draft.

 

DG: "There isn't a day that goes by that I don't question myself -- hold myself accountable."

DG: Says he feels good about the backup OL. "They didn't fall apart."

 

Gettleman believes injuries (and need to shuffle players to different positions) played a big role in some offensive line struggles.

 

Gettleman says he feels good about the backup O-linemen after so many were called into action due to injuries this year.

 

Gettleman says he gave Ron Rivera enough "healthy players, but said "when it rains it pours" on injuries.

DG: "Last year we were healthy as hell. ... Kelvin got hurt early enough that we could make that adjustment, which was huge."

 

Gettleman on Cam Newton: "We just couldn't get into any rhythm this year... the whole offense was just out of whack. It was frustrating."

 

Gettleman on QB Cam Newton: "We couldn't get any rhythm on offense this year." Again he says injuries played a factor in his declining #s.

      So is Legette getting traded?

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Can't keep pining for what never happened....but for god sakes, DeJean, Frazier... and we got this dude in a R1 trade up.  The most notable blunder of this era, that's for sure.

      That's it. How do you feel about this draft class.

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Overall, fine.  Wish we landed a guy to pair with Lloyd but I presume this means they're giving Trevin one final year to put it together (72nd overall 2 years back).  Flashed potential year 1, had a dud last year.   R1: Freeling LT - Great value and a need; landed our new long term LT that could end up starting off the bat.  Icky had a terrible injury and is not playing in his contract year.  Walker is what he is on a 1-year rental, who even knows how he fits. You get premier OTs early if you can find em' and he has what you want.  I thought he could have gone as high as 6/CLE pre-draft, so am a big fan of the selection.  Looking at this class, he's one of the guys at the top that is like "okay that's the LT".  Others have this right/left or G/T type discussion about them.  Freeling is an LT.   R2: Hunter NT - We didn't really have anyone replacing A'Shawn's snaps in our rotation.  Wharton & Brown aren't 3 downers so adding Hunter to the mix fills a big void. I dug deep into S and LB this draft so was a bit to zeroed in - In recognize the value and impact add in the trenches. R3: Brazzell WR - Intriguing.  Given our history, I don't really want to place any expectations here, but a different style weapon for Bryce. I pretty much expect a WR drafted yearly with this regime. Other notables.. Hecht C - These are the type of rounds where starting centers have been found.  We got a starter for this year, but Hecht seems pretty capable and I like it for a long term find.  SOLID AF.  Wheatley S - A pretty well regarded safety prospect.  And we see it every year (like this one) safeties get hyped, people think they may go sooner than expected, and the league reminds them how it rolls.  Plenty of nice safeties have been found in the 4th-6th in recent years.  Big fan of Wheatley. Can't say I know enough about Lee or the others.
