Kid has done more than justify that he shouldn't just be guaranteed a spot on the practice squad.  I would be  disappointed if he doesn't make the 53 man roster over Daeshon Hall.   

 

 

Just like I was saying 2 years ago, Byrd has that it factor that hunger.

Efe Obada moves likes LB and he can play inside with his size. The dude is strong, has a very quick first step and can run down fast QBs/RBs. I was his biggest fan last preseason and he has only gotten better.

If he does not make the roster I will be disappointed but he will definitely make it next year.

Obada is going to be solid.

I see what you are saying.  Hall has only been effective on stunts--but I would say way too early to give up on him.  His strength was his biggest issue--so maybe he gets another hang nail  and goes to IR (weight room) for another year.  Obada can stay on the PS without costing us a spot-

I like what we have in the oven at DE--Haynes, Hall, Cox, Obada---if Horton, Peppers, and Addison can hold down the fort for a while, we could be solid. 

I still say way too early to give up on Hall.  He is slowly improving and has a high ceiling.  Obada had a good preseason for sure.

Give Obada a few more years to develop and he could become a very solid rotational end.

Its now or never. I would be surprised if he doesn't make the team, and if he doesn't someone else will enjoy his service.

My question is,

Do you think Obada is as good or better than Horton

And if so would you be willing to cut a Horton to make room for Hall

 

Its just hard to bite and cut Hall.  Dude was a 3rd round pick with tons of potential and had to sit out his rookie season last year with a injury.

I think if our future is Haynes, Hall, Cox and Obada, the future could be more than a bit troubling.

I wonder how much of the Efe love is based on the story and a few splash plays.  I'm guessing the coaches are looking at all of the snaps and looking also at things like keeping contain on run plays and such.

I'll be honest I haven't really took time to watch the game and just focus on him every play.

      No more mistakes on draft day...

      By Jmac · Posted

      Panthers cannot afford to overlook the defense anymore in the draft. I wouldn't  invest a number number one pick on a QB again in this draft...always a roll of the dice. To many areas of dire need. Choose Dl, Edge or LB for our first round pick. Add another Oline player in the middle rounds. No more PROJECTS or INJURED players please. The QB situation is dicey. Will he ever emerge due to his limited physical abilities or not? They obviously need a plan B on the roster. I hate to say it, but maybe a veteran like Winston for Canales to work with would be an option short term. This season is going down the drain fast.

      I did not watch the game just the breakdowns. I haven’t watched any defensive stuff of us.    Obviously did not know that. But no designated Hail Mary thrower, Bryce remains alone at the ‘top’.

      So...Those 2 Point Conversions

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      If we were a top offense, I’d agree but we aren’t so our chance of getting 3 2 pointers is basically 0. There were two calls. Go for 2, which I understand but don’t agree based on our futility, and the actual play call, which was awful both times. Play action fake with a leak out and/or rollout to increase the number of opportunities like a QB run in or multiple targets. We, unfortunately, limited ourselves to one chance and after the first run was stuffed you’d think we wouldn’t do the same thing twice but we did and got the same result.
