I've seen enough. Hurney, do it.

Ever since he came on to the roster this defense has transformed. Especially the secondary. Week after week he's been getting better. Hurney just needs to extend Eric Reid already. Adams and Reid are a really good combination, paired with our young corners. If that pass rush was as consistent as The last two games.  This defense will be enough to get into the playoffs and possibly to the big game. 

 

Not sure about the $$$ but this guy needs to be retained.  He is still young and clearly talented. 

I'd hate to see him leave Carolina after,  not even a full year.

I agree 100%. Not sure the I’m no longer a Carolina fan base because we signed Reid crowd will like it tho. Seems the team likes him and he brings a chippiness to the secondary. He is one of our most athletic secondary players.

There's no excuse not to support him.  Political views aside. He's a panther and he's definitely doing work back there. He's brought attitude to that anemic secondary ans with Donte being full of swagger and confidence,  it's only solidified the secondary. We may not have an elite secondary but we certainly don't have chumps back there.  They are geling at the right time ans are only going to get better as they play together. Donte,  Adams, Reid, Bradberry  are becoming familiar with each other and are definitely feeding off each other. They are learning each others nuances that it is almost like they know where they will be at all times.  I'd hate to see that disappear within the next 6 months. Hurney needs to do it.

Agree on all counts.  Give the guy a deal.  I think they are probably waiting to see his impact on the locker room, and I have seen no evidence that he has been anything less than a good teammate.

 

Now that gets me to thinking--What do you do with Gaulden?  My thoughts are based on a lack of knowledge, but could he replace Munnerlyn as the nickel?  Played nickel in college....

I am liking our CBs right now....A lot. 

Point?  Could a SS be all we need to have a solid secondary?  They are not that hard to find.

Fans boo’ed him during his player introduction. I bet those clowns were out of their seats cheering for him when he got the interception and almost took it to the house 

I was at the game too. That’s exactly what I told my friend during introduction. “These people won’t be booing when Reid gets this pick 6.”  ...and I was right.

They absolutely were. I turned to my wife after his interception and said "they aren't booing him now" the same ones booing were jumping around like high school cheer leaders

Lock him up! Lock him up!

im talking about Eric Reid, not Donski of course. 

Signing him would hopefully cut some of the fat off the fanbase, as they just can’t stand to watch a militant take the field.

reid is an asset to this team and would solidify one of the safety positions and strengthen our secondary for years to come. It’s a no brainer honestly.

that crowd doesn't really exist.   I mean technically I guess there are some but it is too small of a number to even care about. 

reality is, there was virtually zero blow back big picture when we signed Reid.

    • So, objectively, you'd say from a holistic review of Rico's performance and the team overall there were at least a dozen players on the team that performed at least as well if not better in their roles?
    • I'm not a huge fan of BY, but he does have some clutchness developing
    • While you're correct, people are just sick of being told, "you don't understand this, you're dumb" despite what their eyes say. This applies to the Panthers and anything else in life. This board can be a miserable place, but this isn't the old days anymore because Social Media & Reddit have hijacked old-school forum users.  I have in the last year or so taken a massive step back from Social Media & Reddit. Deleted accounts on both, I only have X/Twitter now. But I was looking for an outlet for Panthers talk and I did not want to do that on X much at all. There are only two legitimate outlets for that I've found, here and SB Nation. SB Nation I used to partake in, but they absolutely bumble-f*cked the comments section, and I like the setup of the posts + comments, as opposed to article + comments. Also, as others have pointed out, being a Panthers fan has been a horrendous existence since Cam left. Just an awful crew of coaches, draft picks, trading away great players, etc. It's been miserable.  Ever since Tepper bought the team, I hoped that he commit to a full rebuild. He never did, he thought there were shortcuts and so did Rhule. This hamstrung us for years, and then he massively overstepped with the BY trade.  This ruined the team building, because there was no depth, and then it ruined nuanced BY discussions because of the insane haul we gave up. He will never live up to that, I think many people are finally wrapping their heads around that now which is good. The best thing for this board to get better is for the Panthers to win more, draft well, and to stay committed to crawling through this Andy Dufrense poop-pipe to escape the depths of NFL hell. It will be ugly and stink along the way, but you can see already this year if we commit to drafting then the team and the vibes can turn around quicker than you think.  I am extremely optimistic about the draft class this season, it's something to watch, talk about, and celebrate. It also gives Dan and I think by extension Dave Canales more of a leash, which I think we need to give them and grant them the time to turn this boat around.
