Its refreshing to see. All out effort to fix what could have been the worst D in nfl history. 

Just everyone is young there now, but so what. 

Let them grow together and take their lumps this year 

No idea how this year plays out (probably notl record wise) but at least I can stomach young guys going through growing pains vs our previous high price defense get worn out

6th and 7th rounders might not make the 53 but that is going to be a fast secondary.

If youre using the past, that would be right. But with this D and Rhule, they should make it easy. 6th was a Baylor DT, right now hes the top backup at DT. CB has no one but a struggling Donte Jackson, he may get a injury red shirt but its WIDE-DEE-HELL open there.

I'm referring to UDFAs and other teams cuts still to come.

The 7th is a project who probably shouldn't see the field year 1, but I can see how Roy could have an role carved out.

yea, they should bring loads of players at CB and DT.  I heard long ago most 6/7 draft picks are players teams wanted but didnt feel they could sign as UDFA. They are not BPA on their big board.

You also have to consider the shift in defensive philosophy.

Ron Rivera believed in pass rush, pass rush and more pass rush. He believed you could stick pretty much anybody on the back end and still be effective as long as your guys up front were getting to the passer. John Fox wasn't really all that different, so it's been the Panthers way for a long time.

Phil Snow isn't like that. From what I've read on him, he's more of a believer in a balanced approach to the defense.

      Observer Projections / *Updated Panthers Waiver Additions

      By CRA · Posted

      this is where the Bryce defense goes off the rails for me.  We all know Bryce isn't a deep ball chunk play QB.  He doesn't have those physical tools and he doesn't play the game w/ that mindset.  It simply is not what he is.  Then you got folks going essentially going, well actually Shaq was a very efficient 3 pt shooter this season.  He shot 50% from behind the arc and Steph Curry was only at 48%.  So yeah, Shaq is a very effective 3 pt shooter.  Don't say he isn't a 3 point shooter.  Meanwhile, Shaq went 1 of 2 on the season and Steph shot 9343924 3s.  Russell Wilson is a deep ball chunk QB.  Baker is. Geno was his comeback season (best in the league that year I think is the correct call).  That's the Canales pass tree. EVERY QB throws deep at some point.  Arguing you can find a good grade when they went deep one week is just that.   No one can argue Bryce plays the game like a young Wilson throwing f you hail marys downfield.   Jake Delhomme fits Canales more than any Carolina Panther QB.  Teddy Bridgewater can grade out efficiently on his deep passes.  That doesn't make him a deep ball chunk QB.  2 totally different convos.    It would be better for everyone IMO if our org accepted what the unicorn was and built a team around that given they invested so much in him.....which is the criticism I started day 1 when they put him in Frank Reich's offense.  He didn't fit that.  He doesn't fit the Canales tree either.    NFL is about fit more than anything and it's what Carolina gets most wrong.  We essentially run offenses we don't have the QB talent for and you can say the same w/ the 3-4 D.  That's the Bryce era.

      THE David Moore !?!?! We're saved. I expect TMac to have 200 catches, 3k yards, 20 TDs and be uncoverable this year with all the information he can get from watching our HoF WR David Moore.

      Hendon Hooker signed to practice squad

      By Super Grateful · Posted

      I didn't see anyone post about this, we signed Hendon Hooker to our practice squad. With Dalton hurt and looking like shite, could he perhaps roll into the season as our backup?
