Jermaine Carter broke out late last season, don't forget him. Run defense looked way better after he replaced Whitehead. Also Chinn might get moved full time to safety.

Anyone would look better than Whitehead.  That's not hard to do.  Let's not over hype him just because of that.

Say it with me. The best ability is availability. 

Our health plan must be amazing because we are getting every injured guy out there.

I don't know where these players are.  The top tier ones that have no injury history, that will sign for peanuts.

Guys been doing funky trades on Madden too much, or something.

Does it make me nervous to sign players with an injury history?  Sure.  But due to some of the issues on the team with cap/holes to fill.....what other realistic options are there?

Thuney signed 5 years 80m with Chiefs.  Can't believe he didn't come to Charlotte for 3 dollars a year.

Rather have Denzel Washington but oh well.

Two kinds of football players. Those who have been injured,  and those that are going to be injured. 

Problem is that the players who are frequently the first kind often have a shorter timer on being the second kind. Not always, but enough to be concerned.

Panthers fill a need at linebacker, secure a two-year deal with Denzel Perryman

In their ongoing quest to find a middle linebacker to replace perennial Pro Bowl standout Luke Kuechly, the Carolina Panthers on Wednesday agreed to a two-year deal with Denzel Perryman, league sources told ESPN.

The former Los Angeles Chargers linebacker (5-foot-11, 24 pounds) will replace Tahir Whitehead, who was signed to a one-year deal last offseason after Kuechly retired after only eight NFL seasons.

That isn't overhyping, that's an honest assessment of what happened. Carter looks improved and could play more, if so this is a positive overall.

He's decent depth.  He hasn't proven otherwise to date.

Yeah he needs to bulk up to at least 50 lbs.

Agreed. At least he looks like decent depth now. 

One thing we are sorely lacking, is decent depth.
