Comp Picks update


t96

Recommended Posts

After these recent signings here's how it looks:

 

Gained: 

Poe

Sirles

Cockrell

Lost:

Norwell

Star

Dickson

 

So as of right now we could at best gain a 7th round comp pick, since we've gained and lost the same number of players. We need another one of our FAs to sign and count towards the comp pick formula in order to get our 3rd for Norwell back.

Players to fit that bill:

QB Derek Anderson

WR Charles Johnson

FS Jairus Byrd

OL Amini Silatolu

OLB Andrew Gachkar

TEScott Simonson

WR Brenton Bersin

OL David Yankey

WR Kaelin Clay

CB LaDarius Gunter

 

Of these players our best bets are Anderson, Silatolu, Gunter and Clay, but none of those are gimmes and we're at real risk of losing our expected 3rd for Norwell. We really just need DA to sign somewhere else and stick as the backup there for the year. The rest of the players are at risk of getting cut in TC or during the year and wind up not counting towards the formula at all.

Assuming we don't sign any more UFAs, we need one of those players to sign elsewhere and stay on a team for at least most of the year in order to get Norwell's 3rd round pick. We most likely won't get the Dickson pick back, which is well worth to it to add solid players just giving up a 6th/7th. Star's was cancelled out by Poe. If we do sign another UFA, we most likely get no comp picks next year or at best a 7th.

I really hope that isn’t the case. If OL depth costs us a 3rd then Hurney is an idiot and he cancels out the good feelings I have for him now. Cockrell was more than covered by Dickson. Ugh. I would be pissed if we just threw away Norwell’s 3rd. 

I don’t sweat the comp pick thing so bad. 

We’re talking about glorified early 4th round pick. No GM in panthers or NFL history for that matter has ever consistently made much use of a 4th round pick.

Sirles isn’t a UFA. He doesn’t count against the comp formula.

Um no.

 

Voth may be wrong. My understanding was always that untendered RFAs become UFAs. Voth may have, like Saca, thought Sirles was released. But he wasn’t.

    • Bryce just didn't maximize Hunter Renfrow's skills. ***rant incoming*** But this isn't just about Bryce Young mistiming passes to Renfrow so bad that he's going to get Renfrow killed or hurt, this is also about incompetentence by Dave Canales. Renfrow can still play. He's putting DBs in a blender out there---making them play twister at the top of routes to keep up with him, and dumb Dave has the nerve to cut him. How about putting Hunter in the best position to help the damned offense by appreciating his skill set, DC? You're letting Bryce's apparent inability to make an accurate throw, or at least his timidity to push the ball down the damned field cloud your judgment and miscalculate talent---or maybe just miss on talent just as much as Bryce misses passes due to playing pussified football. It's fúcking unacceptable.  Speaking of misjudgment, I don't know if it's Dan Morgan or Canales, but Eijiro Evero is not the business at DC. I have said a few times that his scheme is not conducive to run-stopping efficiency. Hell, and after watching some clips of plays, now I absolutely know why. The gaps are at least half open before the play even fúcking starts. You are setting the opposition's RBs up for success with too much damned space at the line and in the second level. If our guys are taken out in these areas---at the line and in the second level---then the defense is screwed because it must rely on the safeties to cover too much ground to make the tackle. At least put Ransom in who is motivated to seek and destroy if you're going to effectively leave the safeties on an island.  And speaking of rookies, get our two new defensive ends more snaps to see if we can't generate more of a pass rush. For all the good the continued sorry display of defense that you're putting out for fan's to see (Ejiro, Dave and Dan), you may as well get the rookies generously involved. Fúck that money we gave second-rate (maybe second-rate) vets, we need a damned spark getting after the QB. Watch it, it's just another breakdown of the sh¡t we were subjected to last week. I say this with all respect: Fúck you, Dave! Fúck you, Dan! Learn how to run a fúcking franchise. Maximize the players, regardless of what you think you're supposed to do by the book. Cut the dead weight before another season is lost and fans lose interest in September. EE is "Ew!" Or for emphasis "EEw!" /end rant
    • But nobody is saying he is a good deep ball passer.  But the facts are since he's returned from his benching, he has been throwing downfield.  Whether you want to credit the scheme, Bryce himself, or whatever, he has been pushing it deep.  Not to any positive results mind you, but it has been happening.
