So what now with the safeties...

What we know...

 

FS and SS are often interchangeable in the Panthers scheme. All players can play either.

 

Adams and Coleman are probably the best starting tandem we have seen in a long while.

 

Colin Jones in the game at safety is not desirable.

 

Sean Marlowe is well thought of but often injured and unproven.

 

The Panthers have a couple other young guys. Not much is known.

 

Brian Blechen is now listed as a safety. Last year he was a linebacker. He filled in as emergency safety last preseason and actually looked pretty good. He played SS in college.

 

So , overall are we in better shape or worse shape than last season?

What I know is that we've been wanting better safeties since 2007. I even wanted Michael Griffin that year and unfortunately, got that wish granted way too late.

Basically, the answer to the safety position has usually been not on our roster. May end up going that route again.

I'd say better than last year, just because we have Mike Adams now. He's an upgrade on the defense, and remember that Tre Boston was a starter before. 

Could we use depth? Sure, but better than last year by a small margin.

      From my what I have seen the overwhelming majority of people who are considering the notion a possibility don't really want to see it happen but are considering so for a number of reasons. Most importantly availability. Secondly even when he plays the last few seasons he has been red hot or ice cold. Then there is the subject of his defense which to say the least leaves a lot to be desired. Then there is the image of Ball inactive laughing it up on the sideline (while our team was getting the doors blown off) with previous busts who are now relegated to hanging on by a thread in the g league. I think we should be able to recognize with the team going out of their way to put a very strong emphasis on culture and leadership with the conclusion of this years draft that they expect LaMelo to lead the way this upcoming season and that begins with making significant strides and trending in a positive direction in the aforementioned aspects above. It just has to happen.

      Ppl want to trade Melo? Am I wrong for thinking that would be a bad idea?

      Some of you act like one can't learn from experience over time. Just because you may not know what you're doing in 2018 doesn't mean that you don't know what you're doing in 2025. Frankly, you grow from experience, and success and excellence gives first-time applicants the hand probably 99.999% of the time.
