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.

    • First off, my memory is faulty and so I should remember you. Anyways, welcome back. Having been around here since 2004/2005, I do have to say all these hot takes are not necessary new. I still very much remember all the constant complaints about Jake Delhomme. How he was too inaccurate, fumbled the ball too often, threw bad interceptions, and how Steve Smith deserved a better QB. How this franchise needed to replace Jake for someone better because he dragged everyone down. We even had names for Jake defenders; Blind Delhomme Jock Sniffers (BDJS). That one thread about Chris Weinke over Jake Delhomme because Weinke threw for 423 Yards but only scoring 13 points remains the worst hot takes I've ever seen around here. So to me, it feels like history repeating itself again and I don't feel like getting that much involved in flame wars like I used to. I am more of a sit back and see what the players/team does type of person. And even then, yes, there are so many moving parts that it's not as easy to pinpoint the core issues, especially when you're not inside the building and know every single detail.  And yes, I think even way back then, I hated how overvalued the QB position was and it hasn't gotten much better. It's to where my philosophy has shifted to where if you can't win a SB with a QB on their rookie contract, you might as well get another one. Otherwise, you have to give that QB so much money that the rest of the roster suffers and your window becomes quite narrow.  That's why I'm skeptical that Mahomes/Burrow/Jackson/Allen will win more than one or two SB's between them. None of them look as invisible as they did a few years ago and that's because their targets are much inferior and/or they are getting more roughed up behind a worse O-line.
    • Haha I was still off was thinking of mac jones he has done extremely well this year with basically no weopons as all the 49ers are hurt except for mcaffrey but he is playing slow this year for some reason.
