Panthers Secondary not the worst according to PFF

27. Carolina Panthers (32)
Top overall grade: CB James Bradberry, 82.6 (No. 20)

Top coverage grade: CB James Bradberry, 82.6 (No. 21)

Top run defense grade: CB Daryl Worley, 81.0 (No. 12)

Most snaps: S Kurt Coleman, 966

The Panthers had their work cut out for them from the start, with little experience at cornerback on the roster after letting Josh Norman walk. Rookie James Bradberry emerged as Carolina’s top cover corner, and fellow rookie Daryl Worley played much better over the last half of the season, showing some promise. The safeties, too, improved as the season progressed, but depth was certainly an issue overall. Leonard Johnson missed more tackles (11) than the number of games he saw action (10), and Robert McClain was not far behind, with nine. Michael Griffin’s five missed tackles all came in one game.

Injuries really did us in with our secondary this year. Not a single player was healthy all year.

Good to see them acknowledge that Worley improved as the year went on. 

I'm all for re-signing Johnson as depth but I did notice him whiff quite a few times in the slot. Hopefully we can sign someone in the offseason and upgrade the slot position. 

We NEED an upgrade at SS.

    • Basically agree.  He is the one of that bunch that offers upgraded pass catching along with he is supposed to be kind of special.   Then you have the OL and the ideas that if they perform you can have JAG backs and still do well. So okay we could be fine.  But Brooks is important and to me that receiving element sets him apart.  So there sure is something riding on him.     What strikes me as incongruent is people over in Atlanta or those that follow them look at Penix with a third surgery and act like it is no big deal.      And we are on pins and needles over Brooks.  Either they should worry a lot more or we should worry a lot less.  
    • I usually go a game or two optimist over the consensus here but this is too early for me to say. I need to see some players on the field.  I am not feeling real optimistic though.  
    • Okay as a ‘take CJ’ fan I actually don’t obsess over CJ and Houston, contrary to the narrative.  But I thought I picked up some noise that his OL left a lot to be desired.    Not a single Beyce supporter would judge him harshly if he had a crappy OL. We all know that.    So be fair about it.  A QB needs to be protected.  Especially a guy that gets to his spot and wants to finish the play from there. Which CJ is.
