Fowler article on Bradberry

[ladypanther]

Good write up....at this point in his career, seems like Bradberry is ahead of Norman...maybe due to attitude and coach-ability.

I am not saying Bradberry is as good as Norman  -

But I think one day Bradberry could be.

Bradberry knows he’s not close to there yet, which is one reason I am betting on him. He was a first-day starter for Carolina as a rookie and he looked a little lost at the beginning.

“Initially, things were happening so fast,” Bradberry said. “And they hit a lot harder too in the NFL. But you get used to that.”

But the late-season results were generally very good for the workmanlike Bradberry, who was famously fixing a toilet at his house (under orders from his mother, a pastor) when the Panthers drafted him in the second round in April.

I to feel he is going to be good for us, and if he stays healthy next year the results will show it with more INT.

Waiting for the one who should not be named to show up.

Bradberry has good insticts like Norman, but he was gifted with better talent.

-longer body frame

-Fast-Twitch Muscle

-faster short area & top end speed

Honestly could have gone without that, but okay.

Being ahead of Norman in development at this stage in his career isn't saying much. Norman stayed in Rivera's doghouse for the majority of his first three years or so in the league. Bradberry was also a 2nd round pick who we knew would be called upon to contribute early where Norman was a 5th round developmental type pick.

With that said, I'm thrilled with how well Bradberry played as a rookie. He looked really, really damn good.

Matt Ryan, Julio Jones, Drew Brees, Brandin Cooks, Jameis Winston, and Mike Evans disagree with you, but I guess that does not matter.

1-5 in the division with the major reason they became the worst in the NFC South had everything to do with the secondary, and Bradberry does not get a pass for being a rookie. If he needed that pass, then he should have never started as a rookie.

When you can guarantee me that those 6 players will fear Bradberry, and Bradberry will dominate/change games with those match-ups, then get back to me. Until then the Panthers are in trouble when it comes to winning game in the NFC South.

That is what I want fixed now since SB contender is now a distant memory thanks to the 2016 off season. The current DB and DE situation will not fix that problem.

Bradberry makes up 20% of our secondary since we're in the nickel the majority of the time. He was our best CB all year long. He played well. Worley was the hottest trash imaginable early in the season, but played decently late. I still wouldn't be opposed to upgrading that spot this off season. But Bradberry? We got a player in that kid.

Reading posts from CPK has become similar to reading an article from The Onion. It's actually become entertaining at this point.

Yeah, the guy is so adamantly anti-Gettleman that he struggles to be pragmatic.

So, you would think about putting the Panthers future on Bradberry versus any of the match ups in the NFC South?

It is going to be a while for the Panthers to win again in the NFC South with Bradberry and Ealy anchoring the pass defense.

I like how you added a nickel CB to try to deflect the weight of the pass defense the #1 CB is suppose to carry for an NFL defense. The best CB on the team needs to be more than just 20% or less of the production from the secondary.

Your argument at best pushes for Bradberry to be the #2 CB with a solid at best contribution to the defense.

When it comes down to the 4th quarter and the Panthers needing to hold a lead to win a game, I do not have much faith in Bradberry changing the game or stopping a 1st down.
