With the new weapons and evolution of the offense, I'm not so sure we're going to see so many double TE sets anyway. If that's the case, then it doesn't make much sense to bring in Barnidge. But... if we're planning on trotting Dickson out there for nearly two thirds of our snaps again... well then, fug.

I'm kinda meh on Barnidge anyway.

It's not just about 2 TE sets but about the reality that Olsen has been incredibly durable and reliable for us. He isn't getting younger. Our ineptitude with the backup tight end position is infuriating.

We need a long term fix for when Greg calls it a career; Not another TE already on the wrong side of 30. 

Plus, as has already been mentioned, with our first 2 draft picks, I'm not so sure the need for double TE sets is as necessary as it once was pre-draft.

      I mean, yes, there is a difference between looking at a box score and watching film.  But PFF has a big subjective aspect to some of their grades.  That's how you get a 2/4 being better than 3/5 with a TD.  You aren't using stats at that point or factual events, but subjective analysis of plays.   And it's not like it is the same subjective analysis applying across all the players.   Same guy grading BY's incompletions (which are putting him over the top) isn't grading everyone else's incompletions and completions.  So it's different subjective takes/viewpoints applied.  There is no way everyone at PFF views grading out a play the same.  Then it all dumps into the same spreadsheet.  Hit the sort button.  Sometimes I feel it gets really weird and and collective data starts saying some weird stuff that just isn't true.

      Yeah, Sanders had a very nice debut preseason performance but the folks acting like he's arrived based on that performance are getting way out ahead of themselves.

      Joe Person: Panthers really like Mason Graham and Jalon Walker

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      I won't be surprised if Graham disappoints. Maybe not outright bust but never lives up to his draft status. The more I watched him at Michigan the more I came away impressed by the other Michigan DT. I think he might be the real player. Usually when you have two high level prospects in the same college unit one of them ends up getting fraud checked in the NFL as being largely carried by the other guy. Peppers and Ryan Sims at UNC comes to mind. Lavar Arrington and Courtney Brown at Penn State, etc.
