Quarterback of the Defense

Carolina set themselves up pretty good on both sides of the ball in 2011 picking Cam Newton and then Luke in 2012.  That leadership is needed on both sides not just the offense.  Personally, Shaq will never be the answer to command the defense.  Luke was great at adjusting coverages.  Carolina has a very good opportunity to find a new captain in this years draft in Micah Parsons and imo would be the BPA at #8.

What is with this fanbases obsession with devalued positions like linebacker and running back?

Over the years, those positions have been "successful" picks for us. All those 1st rounders have yielded a lot of very good players for us... at low value positions. What people can't understand is that there's an opportunity cost there. Every premium pick spent on a low value position could've been spent at a higher value position. I'd take a good LT over a great RB. A good DE over a great off the ball LB.

    • No saying he mostly sucks is saying that he doesn’t suck the minority of the time.   Like if he took 17 tests and had a couple of really good showings and a handful of pretty good scores sprinkled in among the typical sub par results.   Like a golfer who went out and shot an 89.  There will be some real nice shots sprinkled in there but at the end of the day it is still 89.    
    • It's worth mentioning... Game 1: Oct 11 in Raleigh. 4-3 OT win with a complete starting lineup. Game 2: Dec 13 in Philly. 4-3 SO win without Jaccob Slavin. Game 3: Dec 14 in Raleigh. 3-2 SO win with a complete starting lineup. Game 4: Apr 13 in Philly. 3-2 SO loss with the AHL roster.  Those early season games were no indication of the Canes team that finished the season. Miller and Ehlers were still trying to figure things out, Nikishin was still a work in progress and the Stankoven line was just another line. Make no mistake, the Canes team Philly will see is nothing close to what they saw at any point in the season. If the top line starts producing, Freddie stays hot and the blue line does what it does, this could be a sweep as well.
