I don't know about that. He's always been a nice run stopper, but his coverage skills are suspect.

I don't know that I would call Carter exactly a stellar coverage guy either. I believe in his career Perryman has allowed a lower passer rating when targeted than Carter has.

I liked Godfathers Pizza when I was in school…we’d drive to the one on independence 

Hands down favorite pizza as a kid - we had one in Rock Hill right around the corner.  Best part was the little arcade inside with the Star Wars X-wing game!

Glad the offense had a nice day, but the LBer spot is incredibly worrying. So many on here said not to worry about the position, but our playoff hopes probably rest on that group figuring it out and staying healthy as far as our defense goes.

If they actually watched the team play last year and said not to worry about it they are either confused or just homers. There looks to be a little bit of both going on around here but it is still August.

How come we got banned for calling out foolishness for what it was with Cam/Teddy?

This media takeover, away from the people, wrong. Won't end well. No jersey signings, no fans at camp. Wrong. Just wrong.

This "new normal" is whacked. Hit the reset!

Hell I seen at bears camp the guys were going around the stadium signing autographs. Are we like the only team not allowing fans as much?

If you paid attention to the roster you would know they aren't the same group.

I've got a lot more hope for the defense than I do the offense this season. A bit of a switch from last year.

Defensive line looks to be a big upgrade over the last two seasons: Brian Burns, Haason Reddick, Derrick Brown, Da'Quan Jones, Morgan Fox, and Yetur Gross-Matos seem to be locks. That leave 3 - 4 spots to be decided amongst Bravvion Roy, Phil Hoskins, Daviyon Nixon, and Marquis Haynes. I think that Hoskins is the odd man out out of that grouping.

The secondary? Also improved! Jaycee Horn, Donte Jackson, AJ Abouye, and Troy Pride Jr are likely the top 4 CBs on the roster, and if we go into the season with 6 that means the final two spots will be between Myles Hartsfield (who has been getting increased looks as the back-up nickel), Keith Taylor, Stantley Thomas-Oliver III (I don't see Melvin nor Julius making the team). STO3 could be destined for the practice squad out of those remaining. Jeremy Chinn is going to be one of the starting safeties, so pick 3 from Juston Burris, Sam Franklin, Kenny Robinson, and Sean Chandler. If I had to guess, Robinson would be PS bound yet again as Chandler is a ST guy and the team seems high on Franklin & Burris. There's also Delano Hill if his COVID bout doesn't hamper his chances.

There are still question marks at LB due to depth, but Shaq Thompson, Jermaine Carter Jr, and Denzel Perryman are the clear favourites. Julian Stanford is another ST likely to make the roster within his position group, so that means possibly two spots go to Frankie Luvu & Christian Miller. It's hard for me to see the two recently added LBs (Celestin & Hall) or the other two LBs (Johnston & Fisher) making the main roster.

    • Yep. I was hoping for and calling for a day three guy. But I didn’t research the position to say if we should or should‘t have jumped at a particular guy at a particular spot.    And everything I read said it was a poor draft for RBs depth wise. I guess when Seattle takes a backup RB in the 1st, that kind of backs that up.    I definitely think we should keep 4 running backs and if King can play well enough then keep him too.    I believe I heard Canales say we are a running team (talking about drafting a WR he will be needing to block as well as catch). Well if we are gonna be a running team by identity we don’t need to stock the WR room to overflowing. If one room has to sacrifice, it should not be the RB room given our circumstances. 
    • If there's a pattern I'm definitely picking up from Dan and company is a philosophy of making trades where we try not to sacrifice the number of draft picks we have by day's end. In other words, we're not giving up three picks for one, or giving up a future pick to make a pick today. And even if we give up something at the start, we make trades later to make up for that initial loss. Here's how it stacked up for 2026: How we started: 19, 51, 83, 119, 158, 159, 200 How we ended: 19, 49, 83, 129, 144, 151, 227 (no future picks sacrificed) Ultimately, we moved up two spots in the second to ensure we got someone we coveted, gave up a few spots for our fourth round pick, but then had better picks in the 5th (and got really good value out of them), and had a worse 7th rounder which isn't that big of a loss anyways.  At this point, we can question who they draft, but they're pretty good maneuvering across the draft board.
    • I just saw the funniest thing...or very disappointing, depending how you handle misery. A guy on YouTube did a 2027 'way too early' mock draft.  If I told you the simulator has the Panthers selecting in the top 10 , what would you say?  If I told you it was pick #8 and only two QBs were taken in the top 7, what would you say?  If I told you this dude had us taking a defensive player, what would you say?
