He was horrible his first stint and worse this stint. 

 

No idea why Hurndog signed him.

I wonder if they like Hartsfield.  The answer, in this case, could be on the roster.

(Chinn, Hartsfield, Franklin, and (should I say it?  Nope, I can't.  It would be wrong. I'd get blasted...) Kenny Robinson?  Is there a there there?

To be fair.. Franklin played solid in a couple games... some others he was meh

[PantherPhann89]

Tre  Boston was a better FS than most of the Panthers former FS. Ie.  Thomas Decoud, Haruki Nakamura, Duke Cooper, Colin Branch etc.

We can at least show the man some respect for what he's done for our/his team...

Special teamer, prolly, but he has the skill set  and size they seem to covet.

Grant does look good, but give me Jevon Holland. I want a BALLHAWK.

If that's what they're looking for from our FS Chinn might be the new starting S.

Which I'm not against.

I'm almost positive it is not what they want from their FS so someone else is going to have to fill that role.  I know Robinson was drafted with that deep safety role in mind, but lots of young competition there in that last line of defense.

Snow mentioned wanting Chinn playing as more of a safety going forward than a LB playing back like he did this season, so him as one of the starting safety makes sense.

Talked to him at OTAs--I was with a friend of his from UNC--he is a very nice person--a great guy--positive attitude.  I pulled for him, but when you are a S, you have to make the tackle--not guessing and diving...

That game against the chiefs when Franklin played, he was a monster. 

[MHS831]

Safety, in the 3-3-5 just became more important without a lot of fanfare about it.  I see Chinn moving back there permanently-leading the defense--more like a rover, for lack of proper terminology---

He flashed---I hope there is something there.  Chinn, Franklin, and maybe a rookie S could make the 3-3-5 scary--if they step up.  I have no idea what they are thinking, but I was impressed with Franklin--then he disappeared for a bit.

Awful contract by Hurney - more dead money on the books.  We only save 1 million, unless it’s post June 1 then we save 3.5

His tackling is even worse though.

Avoiding contact isn't a great trait to have as a safety.
