With the number of holes on the roster and not a lot of cap space, he did a really good job drafting talent and filling holes with FA signings. Did I prefer a few different guys, sure. But we got younger, faster and more talented in several areas. We will still have to go into FA to get a true FS and nickle: if Corn Elder makes the team I'll take everything I said back. If Cam is healthy, we are going back to the playoffs. I really dont know much more he could do to strengthen the roster.

At CB: Don't underestimate getting Cockrell and Seymour back.  Both better than Elder.  Poor Corn.  I had high hopes for him but maybe he still comes through. 

Safety though is still a mystery; maybe the FA we get is at least fast this year.  Tired of the non-Corn elders if you're picking up what I'm putting down.

Seymour? He’s awful. Did you not see him in preseason last year getting absolutely abused left and right? He was no better than Worley was when we had both of them. Gaulden was the same at safety. Yes, he’s young but unfortunately he had the worst combine measurements at DB last year. Donte got beat a bunch in the second half, but he’s got speed that you can’t coach so he just needs to build on his rookie season. Gaulden doesn’t have that to fall back on so I hate to be negative, but I think he’s a lost cause.

At CB, the only hope on the roster is Cockrell. That’s really it and the depth is terrible. At FS, the only hope is a FA. Again, the depth is terrible. God forbid one of our CBs or Reid get hurt, there’s nothing there.

Unfortunately it was worse with Corn v. SEA.  Cockrell is pretty much it.  Won't disagree.

I will give this offseason an A- with the caveat that the offseason is far from over. The next big date is around May 8. I think the Panthers lost 4 UFA and have signed 3. To protect any compensatory pick they may be entitled to they will not sign any UFA veterans until after around May 8. They can sign cut players before that date.

Secondary coach last season was asleep at the wheel. Corn did some things that are easily corrected with good coaching, which we have now in Fewell. I think he’ll turn it around this year. Hope so anyway. 

This is where I am at right now with this team. Tepper demands excellence. He talked about how he felt certain groups were not communicating effectively.  So they made the changes in the staff.  We need to get to a point where we can develop quality players throughout our roster.  No a guy who is a UDFA should not have the skills of a 1st rounder.  But our problem seems as though everyone is lost half the time.  Not knowing assignments.  

I am hoping these new additions to the coaching staff can start to develop some of these guys into serviceable pieces.

      Tony Pauline: Panthers will strongly consider Kenyon Sadiq if he’s there @19

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      I hope we're not going all in this year. We couldn't outright win our own division with a losing record. We had 2 anomalous wins. Typically you aren't going to win scoring 13 and have your opponent have an absolute train wreck offense.  Also, a team scoring 16 on 6 trips to the red zone is not normal either. I'm not trying to be a pessimist. We're not there. Bryce isn't there. Most of the year our offense legitimately struggled and the missing piece wasn't a TE. Keep building through the draft and reasonable FA. When we have a team that's on the edge of being able to make a legitimate SB run, then go all in. Otherwise, going all in right now feels like another Bryce situation. Sell out and pray. That's not how consistent winners are built.

      BREAKING: Panthers have interest in Deebo Samuel

      By ColumbusCounty · Posted

      XL might never reach his full potential here but I think he does have a legitimate shot at becoming a pretty good #2-3. We knew when we picked him that he was raw but his athletic traits were hard to pass on.  I still remember coming here and telling 85% of huddlers to not give up on DB yet after his first couple of years here.  I just knew DB was going to special. I wouldn't put XL in that exact same category but I wouldn't write him off yet. I think our playcalling is also working against his strengths.  At the very least, we should have a servicable #3 receiver w/ speed between XL, Horn Jr, and Meetchie.

      I think we haven't praised Morgan/tilis enough. In this thread we have some huddles best and its hard to figure out what to do with the 19th pick, if you understand that. Im also posting what "I" believe they are doing and what I feel is best. Those FA signess send a clear signal- They are going all-in to win this coming season. If you factor that in, just believe it first, it 100% changes what going on with pick 19, cause 51st pick doesn't matter as the talent level drop is petty big between the two. So 19 is the biggest difference maker on the current plan of all-in for the 2026.  Then you factor in who will be there at, (I better hold off on my other strong thought here- I think trade up is the best help too, yes using that 3rd to do so too...) DT, ILB(Allen? he didn't run), OC, QB(ooo my I don't want to rage drool my hate again about how I feel here, plus F it draft TY simp not joking)....... those 4 groups don't have the "BPA" at 19. You can add ILB Hill in there, but I feel 19 just is too high, other disagree.  Slot or TE it is......Kenyon is the only TE worth a 1st and he's the classic draft dilemma- All sort of he's a top ten lock to he's a non-blocking one trick WR that's not even worth 2nd currency. Then there's he's the clear winner from the TE group, thus increases his value more no matter the opinion.  Honestly I see the Matt Millen outcome as the current odds favorite, I think the huddle would go bonkers for weeks as result......just the truth tho, WR had the highest odds to be the clear BPA and slot is a need...plus if we are talking about Walker being a one year deal, Coker is a one year too(he may have another controll yr, I got to confirm it tho). Plus God forbid Tmac gets hurt, the drop in talent from him or Coker to Moore is fuging scary, I'd say more than the recent OT stone fellow. It goes back back to adding talent no matter what, draft now help, and where are  the weak points are in the system you want to run....
