In his defense, injuries are injuries. And it isn't like he's had good  o-line coaches until this past season. Heck the guy was Kyler Murray's blindside OT throughout high school and was a starting LT from freshman season on.

I really think those two concussions (and who knows if there were any in college and HS that made him more susceptible) were the biggest factors in his tenure here. What looks like a bust to the outside observer might have more to the story.

He's still on the relative cheap for us, but I think we need to look at him playing guard. Wonder if he has ever played center??? Keeping him around could be a good choice, if nothing else as depth or for an extra tackle on goal line/inches to go plays. He has power, he just may lack technique and aggression.

in 2019, there were a few games he showed some flashes when he was healthy, it was just last year, sheeesh.  He has a ton to prove, but might as well bring him back and see if he flashes any potential.  

Yeah, I'm fine with bringing him back to camp next year but I think he's officially out of our future plans. He'll have to improve dramatically to earn a roster spot next year.

Physical ability has never been the problem for Little.  That's the reason Hurney wanted him so bad.  If you watch him play at times he looks really good.  Then on the next play it looks like he has never seen a football in his life.  The problem with Little has always been consistancy.  Until he has that you can't trust him to start or really even play

    • Disclaimer:  In June, I am usually optimistic.  In October, a policeman with a bullhorn is telling me that I have a lot of life ahead of me and to think about my loved ones as I gaze down upon him from my rooftop.   Having said that, I think our offense (down the stretch) was good enough to play KC and Philly tough.  So how many games would this offense have won if they played the entire season like they did in November-January and if they had a better defense?   If you could stretch the last nine games over an entire season and put a solid defense on the other side, I see 5 wins becoming 7 or 8.  Down the stretch, the Panther D surrendered 30 points or more in 5 of the final 7 games and managed to win 2 of those 5.  If they can win 40% of games in which their defense surrenders 30 points or more, then the math indicates, had that been the case all season, the Panthers should have won 6 or 7 games with their defense surrendering 30+ points.   This season, we are much better at WR (TMac, Renfrow, Horn, and I expect XL to be a lot better).  Bryce is confident and now a leader.    The Achilles' heel of the 2024 defense, the DL, seems to be very solid.  We got back Horn and Jackson on the corners, Smith-Wade is improving better than expected, we signed a stud Safety.  Derrick Brown returns.  While the D is not there yet, it is going to be better.   So if we ended the second half of 2024 playing at a level that should have produced 6-7 wins, better WRs and a better defense could result in 9 wins or more.
