Burns is already showing out and deserves more snaps. 

Panthers have far too many players on one year deals, after cuts half maybe on one year commitments. 

Bradberry, Shaq, McCoy, Williams, Wright, and Love are the biggest ones. 

Mario(31 years old) looks terrible when asked to drop in coverage.

Mario is in the last year of his deal and cutting/trading him now does nothing but give us cap space this season alone.  This roster is fairly set, so there's no real urgency to free up a ton of cap room for 2019.  He's off the books next year (unless extended/re-signed).

It could come down to Mario or Bradberry/Shaq on the books side.

Gimmie the young guys.

Mario looks like a bad 3-4 fit unless hes rushing the passer.

Its a young mans league and Mario is about to turn 32.

Mario is in the last year of his contract. If Burns has a good rookie year and Haynes and/or Miller show promise we probably let Mario walk in free agency. Flexibility isn't a bad thing.

But you absolutely don't cut your best proven pass rusher two weeks before the regular season to save $8M in cap space.

      ESPN’s recent grades has Charlotte with a B. I haven’t paid attention to any others really.

      Player Led culture vs Staff Led

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      It’s simple. Win and everyone in here will say the culture is good. Dear lord the amount of time spent on these posts is hysterical. We’ve seen the end of season swoons where you can tell the team had given up with many of the same leaders that took us to playoff seasons. When your OL is decimated by injuries, it’s amazing how fast culture turns. When you get on a tear like 2015, everyone’s having fun. You need the right people regardless, but they have to win.

      Player Led culture vs Staff Led

      The difference is about how much player input is allowed and encouraged in the decision making process. Top down teams tend to dictate to players how everything is handled. Disagreements are handled by the coach and players are expected to do what they are told regardless of what they think or feel.  Players are perceived as commodities to be used until we find better. In player led teams player input is encouraged and valued. Players and especially leaders are expected to settle their own disagreements and be accountable to the team but mostly to each other. Players are family to be appreciated and supported in their growth. Is the reality of football the same in both? Yeah there are limited positions, football is a business and winning is the bottom line. Coaches get final say and run the program because that is their job. But in player led teams they feel valued, appreciated, part of a larger whole. Most people who have worked at multiple jobs know exactly what I am talking about. When players try to run the show and don't value  coach input that isn't a player led team, that is a circus which we surely are familiar with in our past.
