“I hate saying it. But the Panthers played with 10 guys on D last year”

Nah, I was just commenting on half the folks calling TB not being solid while I was on the half hoping he'd be decent 😛

 

I totally missed that one. Although I do agree with it. Hope does not always work. But it's the best we got at the moment.

Constantly signing guys to become better players than they have shown in recent history is more times than not a losing proposition.  At least it didn't cost us $30m in cap.

 

 

Signing a guy you are familiar with, hoping to get something out of him, happens all the time. Sometimes it works, sometimes it don't.

 

Now the money part. Sometimes it works, sometimes it don't. lol

we literally went from the best MLB in football to the worst in one season. was brutal. if perryman can just be middle of the pack ill be thankful.

 

Once Carter took over from Whitehead, our D took a big step forward. He is not going away without a fight. I can tell you that. 

 

Perryman is a down hill tackling machine. That's his wheelhouse. 

 

I'm hoping Carter wins that battle. I tell ya what.

feels like Perryman will start the season until his inevitable injury at what point carter will come in and our D wont miss a beat. Great teams have great depth.

At the beginning of Panthers Confidential, you see inside the Panther Draft Room when they're informed of the Lions picking (Penei Sewell).

Scott Fitterer says to Matt Rhule, "So what's gonna happen is Sewell's gonna go, we'll be staring at Horn, and then it's gonna be what's worth us moving off of Horn." 

Later, right around five minutes in, the film rewinds to the day before the draft and you see the meeting where Matt Rhule lists "the cluster of guys we really love" in order with Scott Fitterer, Samir Suleman and David Tepper. 

They are...

- Penei Sewell
- Jaycee Horn
- Patrick Surtain
- Jaylen Waddle
- Devonta Smith

And finally, a little after that comes the part where they actually draft Jaycee Horn, which would strongly suggest he was the guy they wanted (and in fact they say so afterward). 

So ya know,  there's that 😕

Some of those names aren't super legible in the clip, but it's abundantly clear they valued Horn over any other player on the board when we picked.

Given that he was available at eight and we didn't take him, I'd day that "report" smells like bullsh-t. 

The more reliable report was actually that the only quarterbacks we liked were Lawrence and Wilson. 

If Wilson's troubles translate into the season and beyond, it'll give me concerns about their evaluation process. Of course, it could simply Jets doing Jets things.

The whole Defense took a step forward the minute Carter took over. Put some respek on that name.

Still makes me wonder what Carter did to get on Rhule's shitlist. It was pretty evident early on that Whitehead was no longer any good.

    • I know it's only been training camp and one preseason game, but I think T-Mac has already shown his floor to be exactly what I said about him in the pre-draft process. That his floor if he never improves his game, is as one of the best #2 WRs in the NFL, if not even still a low end #1 (i.e. a 25th-ish best WR in the league). I think it's safe to say he's already established himself as our #1, and there are only a small handful of teams in the league where I don't think he'd be their starting #2 WR in Week 1. Bengals (Higgins), Dolphins (Waddle), Eagles (Smith), Bucs (Godwin if healthy), Rams (Adams) are really the only teams where I think he'd be the #3 as a rookie in Week 1.  A few others like the Lions (Williams), Bears (Odunze), Seahawks (Kupp), Commanders (Deebo), where he'd be the 2b to start the season, just because they're vets and/or already have a year or two of experience with their team/QB. And even having said that, I think by year 2, he's better than every one of those players (And no, I'm not saying he's already going to be better than a prime version of Adams, just whatever he'll be at 33 next year), and same goes for Kupp, but that's more because it seems like his body might be quitting on him in a way that hasn't happened to Adams (yet).
    • Well to be fair, Horn not practicing right now to let his stitches heal up from a car accident isn't something that should be concerning.  Sure, you don't want him missing practice leading into the season, but it's one that once healed, won't have lingering affects or fear of re-injuring it, it was just bad luck.
    • Quality backups are absolutely important. This franchise has been plagued with depth problems. That said, there is a little bit of dismay that Mays can't beat out a 1-legged man, and all the talk going into the off-season was how BC would certainly be gone since he had position versatility.  In the end, it doesn't matter too awfully much, as I would be shocked to no end if Corbett makes it through the season. We know what we have in reserve, and that should surely be better than trying to sign random fat guys mid season to try and take over.
