I don't mind paying him, if he deserves it, it didn't really look like he had that great of a season to me, but the defense as a whole was pretty bad.

However, I do want him to test the market first...don't need another Charles Johnson situation.

Yeah, exactly.  He was really average.

He is average and he hasn't really showed any high level game-play to anyone yet and can't even tackle either.

In 12 games, he has 66 tackles(7 for loss), 5 passes defended and an interception (2 if you count the one he was robbed of in the Eagles game) and I think a sack. Is that just average? 

Enough said!

see this is where you expose that you are letting something else color what you're seeing on game days. Reid was one of the more consistent tacklers on the defense.

The question really is, what is “market value”?

one would think Eric would work to extend with the only team that took a legit step forward to work with him.

what makes him think anyone else would have him? He did sit on a couch until the Panthers,..

If you compare it to the numbers of the other safeties in the NFL, it might be average, although I am not really sure.  Take his tackle numbers, he is averaging about 5.5 tackles per game, the best in the league is about 7.5 per game.  For passes defended, the best in the league is just under 2 per game,  while interception best is just under .5 per game.   So his numbers MIGHT be average for starting safeties.  

But then, I am ok with average.  Average is better than what we have had over the last couple of years.

      Breakout 2025 Candidates

      By Panthers Addict · Posted

      What I love and hate about this team is it’s more filled with potential breakout players than ever before. JT, XL, Coker, Smith-Wade, Ikem, Trevin… and even Bryce are all guys I could legitimately see taking the next step. But the problem with having so many of those guys is that team success somewhat relies on them taking that step, and some are bound not to. That being said, I’m cautiously optimistic given our softer schedule, the way the offense clicked late last year, and the direction we finally have at GM, coach, and QB. Could see us as a sneaky playoff team.

      Smith-Wade for me. He has the path to some decent hefty snaps in Evero’s scheme. He held his own last year and improved as he continued to get snaps— If he makes some strides, could be a very capable nickel.  I agree with Sanders. Bryce had some trust in him that final Falcons game post crazy head-stand.  Bryce looked for him a lot that final game and made some critical catches to get us the W. Seems he’s put in major work so I’m hopeful about him.  Wallace will have an offseason under his belt. I like him a lot, was higher graded than most remember in his draft (I.e Brugler had him LB3/70 overall) but he isn’t as cerebral of an LB as we’re used to. I think he could thrive if we get D captain/film-junky type next to him— because right now that’s Jewell.  Still a bit cautious but love the talent. Rozeboom may snag some playing time from him if he’s still working out the kinks.
