Once we hire Rhule I got super excited about a new beginning, and a revived culture.

 

I fully expected him/the team to start Filling out the staff almost immediately, but he is clearly taking his time and not rushin it like he said he would during his introductory presser.

I literally went from not giving a poo (Besides CMC not getting hurt) the final weeks of the season to being a Panthers junky all over again overnight.
 

So, while we all await patiently let’s hear some predictions on personnel going into the 2020 season. 
 

I will lead off by saying that our QB room will remain the same as it was to begin this season, with the depth chart at the position  identical. Can/Kyle/Will.

I would have written Will off, but when Rhule saw him in a clip I saw, Rhule said “There he is, last time I saw you, you were hanging up 60 on us”

I personally believe that we have and will surely have the pieces to go to the playoffs next year. I just don’t see the team moving on from Cam.

It will certainly be a different type of offseason for us, and there are tons of questions.

Will Rhule have a good mix of NFL and College coaches?

What will we do with both sides of our line?

Who gets re-signed from our secondary?

If the coaching staff is college heavy, will there be a learning curve, will the coaches cost us games (like ole Williams did against Clemson)?

Will Cam be ready for the opener?

If Cam plays lights out for the first 1/2 of the season, do they trade him for max value to rebuild? Or do we keep him and Re-sign him Before the season ends?

How quickly will this Sports Science program get off the ground? Will it truly pay dividends?

Was Ron right on his way out when he said “The truth of the matter is figures lie and liars figure. You can find a stat to use for whatever you want, but at the end of the day it’s about the men on the field. It’s about the guys that are calling the plays. It’s about the execution of things that happen on the field. That’s what I look at as far as football is concerned.”?

Theres so many questions to be answered and they all will surely be answered in time. 
 

here’s the fact of the matter gents. Our window to win is now! Like isn’t getting any younger and Cam’s future is in doubt. CMC is going to need help back there or he’ll get burnt out during a rebuild.

 

My .02 on this team and this matter is that u go all in this year, and then you go into a rebuild/re tool. 
 

Who am I though, just a fan who might have some good points that other fans may or may not agree with. Im not the guy signing the checks, and if we go off of what we’ve heard recently, he wants sustained success. If that’s the case, we may very well already be in full re-build mode as far as the 53. We for damned sure know the entire staff is undergoing a rebuild, and not much has come out in that regard.

One thing is for sure, it will be exciting around these parts this offseason. Here’s to hoping we can retain some of that old school Panthers swag while forging ahead into the future of an entirely new way of business.

If we pull a good offseason off and keep Cam there is no reason to rebuild imo, why not just build a dynasty at the minimum for the years we are expected to have Cam and Luke left. In all honesty if we continue to get young at the right positions each year while playing FA, we can and it's all up to the front office. The thing that has me most excited is an entire new young front office, who would have guessed a few years ago we would have a new owner and HC. Maybe Tepper spends his money on this analytics and sports science thing and it pays off! I for one am ecstatic just to not have a boring head coach anymore, we have someone that can obviously inject energy into this organization and its players, hell he hypes me up.

      Clowney released

      By Waldo · Posted

      Even limited as he was I still don't think they have replaced his production, and not just the sack stats. The games Clowney missed it was very obvious what his value still was. Risky move but whatever. They only had 32 sacks last year and if that drops then it's going to get ugly. I see the improvement in run stopping but not in pass protect in any way.

      Panthers start making cuts to roster

      Sorta related.  I just looked up a stat:  Success rates for NFL draft's second rounders.  I was surprised that it is 49%.  The success rate for first rounders is 58%.   Here success does not mean those that did not bust, it means that roughly half of the players selected in the second round become full-time starters at some point in their careers.  Busts do that too.  However, considering the fact that a first round talent is worth up to 1800 points (first overall pick) more than the first pick of the second round and as low as 350 points (last pick in first round) higher than the last pick in round 2, it seems there could be cases in which it would be to your advantage to trade out of round 1 and draft two or three second rounders for the value.  Of course, the elite players are likely to be gone, and some positions overwhelmingly suck after round 1 (traditionally, like QB or LT, for example), but if you need to find starters at positions like DT, G, LB, S, C, TE, RB, etc, there could be a time when you trade back for more starters.  I was surprised that the margin between rounds 1 and 2 was only 9%.    While I realize that some of you sofa scholars are thinking, "Well duh?  Trading back gives you more players." as you wipe the Cheetos off your shirt.  Not the point.  The point is you have to consider the draft,the needs (and the number of them), and you need to scout the second and third rounds like you do the first, the cap, and the long-term impact.  If you can find 2 players with a 49% chance of becoming a starter, are you better off than drafting one player who has a 58% chance in the long term? So if I traded away my first rounder for two second rounders (a trade most teams would make) regularly, when I got 10 second rounders (by trading 5 first rounders), 5 would be starters.  If I did not trade and kept my 5 first rounders, 3 would be starters.  Furthermore, their rookie contracts would be much cheaper than the 5 first rounders.
