FS isn't really going to be a battle, IMO. Seems like they have telegraphed that one pretty well.

For starting positions, definitely EDGE/OLB and our CB's. It will be interesting to see those battles play out. I think backup WR could be pretty interesting as well.

Id put edge (Addison, Irvin, Burns, Miller, Haynes, Cox, Obada) all in this new standup rusher OLB role and backup QB above all of those

I think that's one of the most interesting aspects of the new defense but is that a battle? They will rotate heavily.

Your only starting 2

You have

1 vet who has played it in Irvin

1  vet who has started for us but never played standup edge rusher

Our top 15 pick who is highly reguarded.

A kid we drafted last year who has all the tools and a glue fit for this D

Another kid we drafted this year in the 4th who probably would been a early 2nd round guy if it weren't for his injuries 

A kid who Irvin stated he loved when he got here and said reminded of a younger him

A good athlete, good atory guy who really emerged and showed flashes last year.

 

 

Your only starting 2 guys.  And yes we will rotate, but wont really roate more than 4 guys.

    • He makes a good point about Wallace.  In fairness to Wallace it is hard to play your position as freely as you need to when your defensive line is getting pushed around like ragdolls.  One of the greatest attributes a defensive line has is sucking up blocks, freeing up your linebackers.  Our defensive line couldn't suck up a lollipop more or less blocks.  I think Evans, Sanders and Tremble are going to be a really nice TE group.  I can see all three getting time on the field.  If Sanders can improve as a blocker teams won't be so inclined to believe it is a pass play whenever Sanders is on the field.  Ryan Fitzgerald, I think was an awesome pick-up. Hopefully he can fill our kicker void. Luke Kandra many turn out to be our next Norwell.  Everything I have heard about him says he's a beast.  He needs some refinement, but the good news is he's got Hunt and Lewis (arguably the best guard tandem in the league) to learn from. 
    • Great teams build through the draft and have several young players that start that are on rookie contracts. It's important to hit on players in rounds 4 thru 7.  These should be future starters and solid depth.  When you hit on most of your picks you free up a lot of cap space for those one- or two-year players to fill spots you are thin at. No GM is going to perfect on all their picks.  You're going to whiff every once in a while.  That was Hurney problem.  He'd nail the first pick but after that it was reach after reach and we couldn't get any depth on this team. I'm excited about Morgan as our GM and hopefully he'll be around a long time.  It will be even better if Canales can continue to grow as a head coach, both in the development of young players and play calling. I remember last season after Young came back in the lineup and started to perform well.  We saw different plays I had only seen other teams use.   If Canales's play design and play calling continue to grow. Morgan and Canales will be linked together for a long time.  It would be nice to see a Coach and GM together for a decade or two. Go Panthers
