Rookie DE Marquis Haynes is fuggin fast

I really expected him to go to a 3-4 team. He's definitely intriguing. I just hope we can figure out how to properly utilize him. At least Rivera has experience in both the 4-3 and the 3-4, though we haven't exactly seen this hybrid defense with elements of both schemes that he talked about upon his hiring. It seems we always get promised one thing, then fed the same old thing. Remember when drafting Shaq was going to allow us to play a little more base D? Yeah...

gotta admit, when we drafted him I couldn't understand what we were thinking.  

Now I understand.

Same.  Was a questionable draft pick in my mind, but the idea of him speed rushing right on by an OT, pushing the QB to step up into Poe/KK? Yes please.

Haynes being undersized has everything to do with his weight not his height.  He's 6'3''.

Yeah

Haynes is 6'3, but he did say post draft he was aiming to come into camp at 240-245

For comparison 

Vic Beasley is 6'3 245

    • I don't know. CMC is like others and may have lip serviced that line of " I had no plan or wanted to leave Carolina" I think he even said he bought a house too and wanted this to be home.   Here's what I heard- In a way Panthers org gave him a test and he didn't "fight" back. They approached CMC and told him they wanted to put him on IR since the "season" was over or out of playoff reach. CMC didn't fight it one lick and agreed. They secretly wanted him to kept playing or want to, but there was no kickback. I honestly don't know if its real or not, 5th hand information type deal doing on. Yes he had bruises and pains, but was able to play...... but went along with Panthers staff. Odd to be playing games with star players, but whatever....   Plus the staff doctors found out about his tendinitis and there was nothing to fix it. Even with him missing time, it was the best move to trade him before he got inflamed constantly.    Lastly, its mostly time a combo of stuff, Fitterererere did not sign him to be the highest paid RB. That was classic Marty "give me a" herniay doing. GMs have different values on roster spots and rumor was Fitterererer was one that didn't want to pay RBs. For all his faults, he's right about that......
    • I think google is confusing signing bonus with guaranteed money. If you get a guarantee of say $10 million, it doesn’t matter if the signing bonus is $5 or $8 million, it’s the $10 million number that affects the cap, as the signing bonus is always just a portion of the guaranteed money anyways. And again, I’ll admit I’m not 100% sure about it, but I’m pretty sure it is the case.
