 I wanted a DE in the 7th round and end up picking one up in FA after the draft, all is good there.  As for the corner, this is not what I was expecting. I thought we would bring in a starting caliber prospect.  It's still early and could happen.  Cutting a corner JAG just to sign another doesn't make much sense to me.

I'm assuming since these guys are end-of-roster types, they will not count towards the top 51.  By cutting Frye and Hatfield, we saved about $1.3 million.  I would say those savings went toward the Scofield signing.

Exactly what this was about

At some point, are they considering trying TJ Green at corner? He fits a Rhule/Snow type at 6'3" lanky DB with 4.3 speed and turns 25 in May.

Dude is a bust.  He's already flamed out with 2-3 teams and I think is just 25-years old, not to mention a day 2 draft pick.  If you are drafted that high and other teams have given up on you so readily, major red flags need to be waived.

Cornerback Derrek Thomas played for Rhule at both Temple and Baylor as he transferred to join Rhule in Waco after the 2017 season. Thomas spent time with the Seahawks and Steelers last year after wrapping up his college time with 21 tackles and an interception in 2018.

The Panthers also signed defensive end DaVonte Lambert. Lambert had 14 tackles and a forced fumble in 11 games for the Buccaneers in 2016 and spent the next year on injured reserve. He was out of the NFL the last two years and spent time in the XFL with St. Louis this year

      The running back situation....

      By strato · Posted

      Basically agree.  He is the one of that bunch that offers upgraded pass catching along with he is supposed to be kind of special.   Then you have the OL and the ideas that if they perform you can have JAG backs and still do well. So okay we could be fine.  But Brooks is important and to me that receiving element sets him apart.  So there sure is something riding on him.     What strikes me as incongruent is people over in Atlanta or those that follow them look at Penix with a third surgery and act like it is no big deal.      And we are on pins and needles over Brooks.  Either they should worry a lot more or we should worry a lot less.

      I usually go a game or two optimist over the consensus here but this is too early for me to say. I need to see some players on the field.  I am not feeling real optimistic though.

      Okay as a ‘take CJ’ fan I actually don’t obsess over CJ and Houston, contrary to the narrative.  But I thought I picked up some noise that his OL left a lot to be desired.    Not a single Beyce supporter would judge him harshly if he had a crappy OL. We all know that.    So be fair about it.  A QB needs to be protected.  Especially a guy that gets to his spot and wants to finish the play from there. Which CJ is.
