Much mo better. We have solidified our offensive line going into an extremely heavy defensive draft. 

Plus a lot of teams  ahead of us in draft went heavy on defense in free agency. And a couple more need a QB.  

Just wish Simmons was still healthy. That would have guaranteed are really strong puck at 16 for us.

We will have some idea of the team's confidence in Cam's  shoulder at the draft.  They seem as if the  OL needs will be addressed with free agents, Moton's flexibility, and maybe some depth  draft picks.  That suggests we are going DL in  the draft.  I  do not really think we  have a choice.  I am also expecting a  T or a G in round 3-4  to  develop for a year and provide depth.  It seems to me that we are going to  go--and all of you can mark these words that were typed on  this day in  the year 2019---this way:

1. Defensive end/OLB  (other possibilities:  White LB, Williams OT, Ford OT/G, Oliver DT)

2. Safety  (Other possibilities:  DT,  T, QB if they are not  happy with Cam's arm)

3. Tackle

4. CB, QB, G or WR

5. Depth LB

Cutting Kalil, resigning Williams, getting Paradis?

Reid's contract looking fair, if not good compared to what ended up being a not-very-buyers-market at Safety?  "Its a buyer's market" was all buyta battle cry going into the signing period.  Someone forgot to tell the FAs that.

The only questionable aspect is if Smith can live up to his 5m.

Over all, its been a favorable off season.

I said back in January that the team had a lot of hard choices they had to man up and face regarding coaches, player's, and the QB position.

 

Predictably though, they've had a routine panthers milquetoast response.     .

The general message the team has sent us is that they believe, with full conviction, that the only problem with last season was Cam's shoulder, and the entirety of the blame is being layed on him. No fears, though! They're also fully convinced it was a one off thing, and no preparations for having to move on have been made, which is predictable given that you have a HC and probably GM who wouldn't be here to draft him should the panthers (unfortunately) need to.

I'm a big fan of the moves so far. Truthfully, we haven't improved much from last year's team. That being said, that team was a healthy Cam and competent defensive play-calling away from giving New Orleans, the eventual nfc #1 seed, a run for their money for the division title. 

A strong draft, healthy Cam, and improved defensive execution under Rivera will make up the difference this year. Plus we have Samuel and Moore firmly entrenched as starters and hopefully ready to take the leap.  Cautiously optimistic pending how the draft turns out.

I'm feeling pretty good. I have said for months that fixing the offensive line has to be the top priority this offseason and I'm am glad the front office agreed with me. Still worried about depth at certain positions but we still have a long offseason to go. Not to mention the draft

      This Bryce Guy (General BY Discussion in Here)

      PJ's completion % was 63% when starting games in Carolina.  Which I believe is better than Bryce when starting.  And again, 4-3 as the starter here and the LONE QB Carolina has been able to actually win with in the Tepper era.  If you ask a gambling gunslinger to come into blowouts.....they are going to go down in a blaze of glory.  Which he would do.  Yeah, he isn't good.  And gunslingers are supposed to have rockier stats than checkdown QBs.   So....why does PJ Walker have a better comp % as a starter than Bryce Young.  And for every knock you want to make about PJ, you can find something or a skillset that PJ does better than Bryce.   I didn't say PJ had good field vision.  He doesn't.  Tell me about Bryce after he comes off the first read lol.  Let me repeat, PJ Walker is not a good QB.  He is NFL depth and an in house arm.  Bryce Young doesn't belong in a convo w/ Jake and Cam.  He belongs closer in a convo with the backup caliber QBs Carolina was forced into playing.  Which isn't just PJ Walker.  But Kyle Allen.  Moore.  Guys like that.

      Oh I see what you meant by memory. I will trust my memory, I have looked a a lot of those ball charts for Bryce and they trend a general pattern. They thing that has changed that I have noticed more recently is the reduction in the bunching of behind or at  the LOS passes over to his right.  Aside from the quantity of throws recently since the running game has become a more dominant factor.

      Yes but you basically said you are going from a quick skim of those charts without doing the same for Bryce and/or Andy. So you are going memory vs. snapshots. That's not going to be a very comprehensive analysis.
