Cam, Luke, Olsen, Reid, Turner, Short

CMC replaces Olsen as a captain next year.

I can see Torrey getting a nod over one of the linemen. He has helped develop our WRs, been involved in the community, and was a direct contributor in the signings of Reid + McCoy.

Lost Davis, Peppers, and Kalil. Luke, Cam, and Olsen returning are obvious. 

I think you could see Matt Paradis potentially step in as a captain depending on how he has gelled with the team. McCaffrey is clearly on his way there but maybe not next season. Like @Icege said I could see him replacing Olsen next season.

On defense I think we might be overlooking Mario Addison as a captain, but I could see Kawaan Short or maybe even Shaq Thompson or Eric Reid. McCoy could definitely be a captain too.Those defensive captain slots behind Kuechly are a real wild card.

      At this point its Sadiq or bust... A

      Walker is a 1 year signing. Stone is a 1 year. BC is coming back from an Achilles injury. Typically takes 2 years to get back to full health, but he's also better inside than at tackle. Yosh retired. Moton will have 1 year remaining on his contract and he's already admitted knee issues. That's banking on a whole lot of nothing at the end of this upcoming season.  As far as challenging Bryce, a challenge can come from any round. It's about finding the right QB with the physical and mental talent that fits the system. Wilson, Dak, Purdy, Brady. Just a few examples of non 1st round QBs that were able to challenge the starters.  Another QB doesn't necessarily have to beat out Bryce, but we should be looking for another starting caliber QB. It's not like Bryce has set the bar so high it's unattainable. The bar is low. The goal is playoffs. Do we throw away a season if Bryce gets hurt, because KP is taking us nowhere. Dan has made some great signings this FA period, I give him that. But replacing Dalton with KP is not aggressively improving our QB room. It's at best a lateral move. This is all about getting better. But this is yet another move that makes it even less conspiracy theory, and more reality, that Bryce is being protected from any real adversity in our QB room.

      BREAKING: Panthers sign QB Kenny Pickett

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      Oh I think it will be. My point was that we need to be trying to get better in the QB room. KP doesn't do that. He's not going to be a long term plan with a 1 year contract. He's just insurance.  This "should" be a make or break year for Bryce. Either He's a guy worthy of an extension or not. Bringing in a rookie number 2 with potential may net us nothing, or it could get us something. The one thing we can be certain of is KP gets us nothing and that's not a good position to be in.  I don't want to go into next year with no number 2, Bryce not having developed I to a real QB1, and sitting at 12 or 15 needing to move up to take a QB in the draft just like we did for Bryce. It's not an outcome I see going well for us.

      Well it hasn't paid off in 3 years - so let's double down and give him 2 more years of replacement level play, eh?
