he's a good player but there are some concerns. he's been on IR the past 2 years and only has 3 ints in the past 3. if ron puts him at FS instead of SS then just lol

He can play both spots actually. San Fran just missed used him a lot of the time. He can help in the box & also be a center fielder. Go watch is LSU tape your see. No need to be negative. When we all know this is a upgrade over anything we’ve had. Deal with it!

Man, I'm so excited to have a guy like him in our secondary. Can't believe we have to wait an extra week. Love the athleticism, love the physicality. He's a smart player and a leader. I hope he hits the ground running and can get some playing time fast. I think he has found a good home here and will fit with our guys easily.

Love it. Don’t care about the drama and never have.

Not sure I’d be as happy if it was more than a prove it one year deal mainly because we have no idea how he’ll preform, is in shape or get injured again but damn if there is no chance he not an upgrade over our current traffic cones.

And Tepper is showing he wants to win and makes football moves. Glorious days ahead fellas, as I’ve stated years ago referring to the post Richardson era.

Winning priority #1

What makes you think Tepper had anything to do with it. Hurney said he and Ron have been looking since Searcy went on IR and Reid was at the top of the list. Tepper himself said a while back  he wasn't going to interfere in the football side and has faith in the people he has in place. This was Hurney and Ron's choice for better or worse.

He can start right away. Defense isn't like offense, there isn't a huge playbook to learn. There are coverages and assignments. He will need to learn to communicate and trust the other guys but the basic techniques and leverages he already knows. And at 26 exactly how out of shape do you expect him to be.

      Barnwell - Ranking WR, TE, RB Groups in NFL

      By Icege · Posted

      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.

      C Mc. Gotta love this guy!!

      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.

      Orlov Complaining About Time W/Hurricanes

      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…
