Really excited to see what Haynes and Cox can do in a 3-4 as well. Lots of speed coming off the edge.

Yah, I think haynes is one to watch out for this year. I think he will surprise some people. It's almost like he was drafted last year with the intention of the switch.

Yeah, Haynes was unquestionably a bad pick last year based on the scheme we were running. That pick could look very good depending on where he ends up in the rotation. It's funny to think that we had a serious issue with pass rushers just this past season and yet now we could end up with a lot of them.

Trying not to get too far ahead of myself though. Outside of Addison and Irvin, we still have very few PROVEN pass rushers. And Addison has not played as a 3-4 EDGE to my knowledge.

Rivera is clearly trying to channel the 2013 defense that had a potent pass rush that covered up a porous secondary. That secondary got exposed in the playoffs though so we'll see 

I think we’ll be ok with James on his contract year and Jackson on his 2nd year. Safety and slot will be an issue though (as everyone knows).

Wait, weren't we at 90?  Someone has to go.  Obviously a camp body, but it sucks for that guy to though OTAs only to get kicked to the curb.

My guess Obada or Cox

Why? Do you really think Haynes will even be active much? Unless Burns or Miller flame out, how is Haynes going to get time over Addison, Irvin, Burns and Miller. I’m excited to see Burns, Miller and Irvin. I don’t think Haynes will see the field much at all assuming health and no busts.

With a year in the league he may be ahead of Miller at this point.  Training camp will beat that out.

The we are rolling a LB or DT to the 4-tech in even fronts?  I figured those two were safe because they are the only 4-3 ends left on the roster.  Addison is slimming down to LB weight supposedly.

      Canales is holding us back

      I've seen enough tape review to see that we run crossers...we have dudes in the middle of the field. I have to think that this is a harder area for someone of Bryce's stature to hit. You have to see directly over the center of the line and is probably where the most interceptions happen (he has thrown a LOT of his picks by not seeing a dude in the middle of the field).

      NFL admits the TMac catch should not have been overturned

      I’m pretty sure we did end up getting the first in that drive, but I don’t remember. It was obviously a catch the ball didn’t move

      NFL admits the TMac catch should not have been overturned

      By hepcat · Posted

      While I don't think NFL games are fully rigged, it's certainly closer to a scripted outcome than we all think. The NFL by their own admission in court is not a fair and balanced sporting event. It is a managed entertainment product, a "spectacle" as they've put it, that now has sports betting as a huge financial pillar of their business model. It's ridicuously naive to still think the NFL isn't using referees to manage the games towards certain outcomes, using "replays in the booth" and overturning calls, choosing to overlook penalties at critical moments and calling questionable and sometimes phantom game changing penalties at other critical junctures of games. The NFL has always done this going as far back as the '60s, and they were investigated by the FBI in the '70s which found a large number of ownership groups had ties to the mob. So when the overwhelming majority of the moneyline bets were on the Panthers vs the Saints last week, and suddenly we see some strange and ticky tack penalties we've rarely seen called on the Panthers all year, I just know there's more going on behind the scenes. And suddenly next week, the Panthers will probably be nudged to a win, to keep the NFC South race interesting, as I see the Bucs are the favorite as of now and most moneyline bets will trend towards the Bucs until during the game when the Bucs are leading heading into the 4th quarter, and the Panthers are nudged to a win. At least, that's what the NFL and Vegas probably want to happen.
