Lost me at Little starting at LT.

Taylor? Roy over Jones? I’m not sure they don’t start Tremble at FB and use Arnold at TE. Keeps the best players on the field. I also think Pride or even Melvin start before Taylor until Bouye returns from suspension. Taylor has potential, but will need time to develop. I’m not even going to mention what they have going on at LT….  
It’s also interesting they have Burns at DE and Reddick at LB. not saying that is wrong, but they seem similar. Is Reddick good at coverage?

Obviously they don't know the team at all.

They did get QB right, so its clearly internet ready.

Yes.  He started at corner in college.

Oh wow, so he may be great at OLB for us. I had the impression he was a pass rushing specialist, but never paid much attention to him aside from his sacks last year.

Yeah Snow in the press conference talked about how he went to Temple as a corner and then really excelled as a DE.

I love it when he tells Brees to stop crying for a flag and to get his ass back over there lol. Reddick, Shaq, and Chinn are going to make a very flexible defense, should be exciting!

Lol.....it's CBS, you should expect dumb stuff like Little at LT

Love it.  I liked him on paper, I love him on the field.  What a great add.

Get your ass back over there.

I just realized how loaded DL is…

I wonder if we should create something like a new player info thread.  I found an article on Fox I found interesting, but it was a bit of a fluff piece so I decided not to create a thread for it.

Maybe we should have a thread where we can just keep posting anything about the new players.  This post on Reddick could go there too.

We could call it new panthers or something.

I'm with you- Its not the way Id project the lineup at all

[LinvilleGorge]

Anyone predicting Little to start anywhere - much less at LT - just hasn't been paying ANY attention to the Panthers over the past year and should refrain from making any predictions regarding lineups. It'll be a surprise if Little even makes the roster.
