well, he's got a lot of starting experience which is good. this is probably a sign that they're gonna cut ties with hyden soon. hollis thomas will probably still start with tank in relief. i like the move (hopefully the draft pick isn't that high though)

Might already have cut ties with Hayden someone had to get cut to make this move.

"The Kansas City Chiefs have traded defensive tackle Tank Tyler to the Carolina Panthers for an undisclosed 2010 draft pick, Josh Looney of KCChiefs.com reports.

Tyler (6-2, 306) was the 82nd overall pick of the 2007 NFL Draft and is in the final year of a three-year rookie contract. Tyler is not eligible for unrestricted free agency until 2011 at the earliest, and the Panthers will have a 11-game window to evaluate Tyler at the bargain-basement price of $297,647, 11/17ths of his $460,000 base salary.

The former North Carolina State star has started 19 games during his 2+ seasons in Kansas City, including all 16 games last season. This year the Chiefs have shifted to a 3-4 defense, with Tyler starting two games at nose tackle. During his 37-game career, Tyler has made 74 tackles, but has yet to register a quarterback sack. He does fill the Panthers' need for a run-stuffing defensive tackle, as the team has lost Maake Kemoeatu and Louis Leonard to season-ending injuries."

    • I really appreciate Bill explaining his methodology here because that gives interested parties a chance to try and recreate the results themselves. I believe that it's safe to assume that despite emphasis being placed on WRs that Chuba Hubbard is one of the Panthers' top-5 weapons. Considering targets, yardage, receptions, etc... Adam Thielen and Xavier Legette are also on the list. Jalen Coker's success might have snuck him in there as well. I can't draw a conclusion on who #5 is though. I've narrowed it down to Diontae Johnson, David Moore, Ja'Tavion Sanders, and possibly Rico Dowdle if they're taking into account his production for the Cowboys in 2024.
    • Unfortunately business is business especially when there are large sums of money on the table. Goes the same for player and ownership. Does not make it right either way.  Why would he not want to play for the niners? Closer to home with a team that has a chance of delivering a SB trophy. 
    • I don’t know if it’s him bad mouthing his former situation in public or my pettiness but either way I’m not a fan. Dude was on playoff teams getting paid millions to entertain. I’m not better that because and I am better than that. You don’t bad mouth your former employer in public. Esp after getting over paid and two, poor little Russian baby didn’t get the playing spot he wanted. Rod had him exactly where is was supposed to be.  He had a mean lip check and did defend our players. Specifically the devils game around Christmas where is our Haula on his ass. Cool. Thank you. But don’t talk poo about us. Because it make you look like Haula.    “need to get as far away as possible”. fug off. Didn’t see Burnsy bad mouthing and his play dropped off too.    sorry, but Orlov doesn’t get a pass from me. See you twice a year…
