"NFL COMPARISON

David Amerson

BOTTOM LINE

Physical cornerback who's at his best when he's able to see the play develop in front of him rather than having to lock down a target as a man-to-man cover corner. Carter's ability to tackle and play the ball in space should interest zone defenses, but a transition to safety might make sense if he can carry a bit more weight."

Well damn! Another one bites the dust!

Edit: Okay, I fuged up. I thought that said "zero" defenses. I hope that it's not an omen.

Another depth player with the comp of Amerson should be fine. Nothing to get excited over.

Looked up his history. The longest he's lasted in his last four stints is about a month, and that's only been on practice squads.

Anybody still available at this time of year is probably a camp body or past their prime, so I wouldn't put too many expectations on him.

Our secondary is becoming to remind me of last year.  And that not a good feeling. Gualden and Jackson need to perform.  

Gaulden and Jackson are our only real options at the moment. Kinda scary, but Eric Washington seems to have genuine confidence in them.

Gotta remember though that, going into the Bills game, Washington and Rivera had genuine confidence in Kevon Seymour.

I was one of the first to criticize Seymour Thursday night.

But I want to see what he does this next game now.

Now that it came out that his wife gave birth the next day.  You know his head was elsewhere and not in Buffalo Thursday night

Other than Eric Reid.

    • I'd love blue to be the new primary.
    • not sure if any of this is news, but a good summary of our situation heading into training camp.  It's sure gonna be good getting Derrick back. After missing virtually all of the 2024 season, Panthers defensive tackle Derrick Brown is aiming for a full return to the field during training camp later this summer, per Joseph Person of The Athletic. Brown tore his meniscus in Week 1 and underwent season-ending surgery that has kept him limited through spring practices, though he did participate in “walk-throughs and light side work” during mandatory minicamp, according to Person. Brown originally stated a desire to be ready for the 2025 regular season, but his timeline appears to have moved up. Brown’s injury was particularly disappointing after a career-best 2023 season. He led all defensive linemen with 103 total tackles and was named to his first Pro Bowl, earning him a four-year, $96MM extension from the Panthers in April 2024. While he has never been a prolific pass rusher, Brown’s size and power has consistently commanded double-teams and created opportunities for his teammates. His impact was evident last season, as Carolina’s run defense ranked dead-last in his absence. The Panthers spent significant resources this offseason on defensive line depth, which should allow them to manage Brown’s usage more carefully coming off a major injury. He played a whopping 940 defensive snaps in 2023 (89% of the team’s total) and was on the field for almost every play before his injury last year. With new teammates Tershawn Wharton, Bobby Brown III, and Cam Jackson ready to share the load, Derrick Brown can take a lower snap share to stay fresh and healthy for the entire season.
