Let’s hope they pivot and give Franklin/Hartsfield the snaps that Whitehead is getting on pass plays. I don’t understand having Whitehead out there on passing obvious passing downs. On his best day Whitehead couldn’t cover Renfrow. That’s on the coaches for not putting their players in positions to succeed imo.

I believe I recall reading a blurb that we tried to sign him this off season but he preferred to be in Buf

I'm not surprised, he could go to Buffalo and play in a defense he already knew vs. coming back to Carolina and having to learn a new scheme. But like I said he had his old LB coach so maybe it wouldn't have been that different. Maybe the Panthers couldn't pay him what he got in Buffalo. Who knows.

It's way early but the DEs looked small in play yesterday. Brown was eating blocks and pushing but I didn't notice KK at all and I don't remember seeing any positives out of the DEs other than a couple of plays by Burns for effort.

I was interested in seeing how they would use the smaller DEs in a 4-3 on both sides and I still haven't don't know this will work.

Klein was a free agent this offseason and signed with the Bills. Panthers had a chance to re-sign him. Panthers even have his old LB coach Al Holcomb. 

Wow I am speechless. Thanks Hurney

AJ got 3 years / $18 million with $9.7 M guaranteed. I'd have paid that all day. We knew coming in that Whitehead was a liability in coverage.

      The Pro Bowl is Unwatchable

      I think the last time I watched the Pro Bowl was that year Sean Taylor blew up that poor punter. LOL

      1 shot 1 goal tracker

      I don’t go back and look at the espn but there live it definitely said 1 shot 1 goal when it happened. I guess they had not added them yet. Still allowing goals that early is rough. Blue line is a total disaster still. Even with Slavin back. Miller and Nikishin keep making mistakes after mistakes.

      Post senior bowl PFF mock draft

      By Navy_football · Posted

      I generally disagree with the concept of picking a position because of value early in the draft. For instance, if there's a really good safety, RB or ILB at pick 10, I'm choosing him over a project WR or DE. Better players make the team better. A bunch of ok players will give you an ok team. The number 1 goal of the draft should be to improve the overall talent on the team. Not to fill positions of need.  Deciding beforehand that you're picking a LT in the first or second round because Ickey went down is not the way to improve the team. Now if Dan has similar grades on 2 or 3 players and one happens to be a LT, then yeah go for it. But don't pass on your guy at ILB because you have a gap at LT or need to improve the pass rush with a DE. When those guys don't pan out then you haven't improved your team. But that LB could have been a franchise cornerstone for years to come. See Luke Kuechly and Christian McCaffrey.
