Possible Starting Defense After Draft

We are two vet FA CBS away from being decent. I think we all know we won’t be in the playoffs next season but I am extremely impressed with this draft and our ability to replenish a defensive unit that looked like it could be the worst of all time before Thursday. Next year watch out...

I wouldn't count too much on anybody beyond possibly the first two picks being immediate starters. There'll be some transition time needed.

If we do have more rookie starters than that, then I wouldn't set my expectations too high for them...or our defense as a whole.

Whats not listed here is the depth, which is a big need too. 6th round draftee is the top backup at DT. Shocking is there is some decent safety depth.

CB is a blackhole, no comment. Herniay needs to sign or trade whatever to get at least 2 NFL CB on this team.

You know Rhule is going to throw them all on the field. It’s pretty clear he’s trying to build a unit as if it was a college unit that’s going to be together for 4 years. Aka Seattle during their legion of boom time or w/e it was called. 
 

Let’s be real. Without all these rookies starting we still can’t even field a defense at this point. Much less a good one. The reality is our defense is gonna get torched worse than last year either way.

    • I hope you understand that this Anti Bryce thing as you call it is really a pro Panthers thing. I think I can safely use we. We want the best for the Panthers.  As far as this other post saying ‘Anti’ Bryce people do misinformation.. you mean like going all in on “Renfro should have caught” that poorly thrown ball? I guess it was week 1. And calling it a drop. Comical btw.  I wonder, did you call that out or let it slide because it aligned with your agenda? 
    • These are great posts with the comparisons and the numbers.   I haven’t lookyat Smity’s numbers since probably the first time he was on the ballot.  But if you watched every week you know what he is. Whatever his yardage or targets numbers were.  He was fuging dominant. I have watched since the AFL days and seen who there is to see. There are many great WRs over the years. GREAT WRs. Smitty is up there in the game of football. 
    • Smith is clear cut HOF if you judge what he did by reception. Fitzgerald was a stat padder.    The most Steve Smith was ever targeted in his career was in 2005 (150 targets). The same year he wins the triple crown.    Larry Fitzgerald was targeted more than 150 times over 9 separate seasons. Not once eclipsing 1500 yards in a season.    The over glazing of Larry Fitzgerald going around is way over blown. ARZ was top 10 in passing attempts nearly his entire prime. Steve Smith and Andre Johnson had it far worse and would have surpassed his #s in the same situation.
