All due respect to Dan Arnold...but unless youre Gronk, Kittle, Kelce or Waller...you're replaceable. And being able to swap a middle of the pack TE for a potential CB1 whose contract is mostly paid is a no brainer in terms of asset management.

Also Arnold being a free agent signing makes it even better asset management. He cost us nothing and turned into an asset for us to acquire a top 10 pick 1 year removed. All we did was drop from mid/late 3rd to early 5th, to acquire a top 10 CB... Hard to believe honestly.

Totally.  Should also be noted how much they still used Ian instead of Dan at times so I imagine Tremble is about to leapfrog to TE1 and Ian holds his role.  Holding onto that extra TE seems to have paid off IMO (results pending)

Agreed. This team was carrying 5 TEs out of training camp. When I saw Ian Thomas still getting a fair number of snaps I thought maybe Arnold would be a surprise cut. I don’t think the Panthers wanted to get rid of Arnold because of his play or anything, but I think it was just a value vs need thing. Losing Horn made the defense less dynamic and they had a chance to get a guy with similar traits.

Also, that 5th is going to be an early one the way Jacksonville is looking.

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      By woahfraze · Posted

      Why are you so fixated on yards? Even if yards were a good judge of QB play, his low yardage totals in some of those games were partly a function of drops (looking at you Xavier Leggette…).  I’m not advocating that Bryce was elite for the last half of last year, but the eye test certainly supported high level QB play for large stretches. He made a lot of high difficulty, put it on the money/drop in the bucket throws. He converted on 3rd and 4th down, kept drives moving, and put the team in position to win games. And it’s not on him that the defense blew it late after he led game tying drives, Leggette dropped a game winning TD, or Chuba fumbled the ball in OT. We could have finished the season close to .500 with wins against 3 playoff teams including KC and Philly during that stretch largely due to Bryce’s play.    Has he sustained this level of play long enough to deserve an higher ranking? No. But for judging based in that stretch alone, he would. But whether he can perform more consistently at that level or build on that, and thus earns a higher ranking, remains to be seen.

      Totally agree with you, if we had invested in drafting a corner or two I wouldn’t even ponder adding Ramsey. But, to be honest we legit added nobody to our corner room this offseason we have nobody worth developing. Even if Chau Smith Wade is better then what I think, he is the only guy we have invested draft capital into outside of our starters.

      Look at his snap counts, your telling me that his entire college and pro football career every coach he has had has misused him? No offense but I don’t think you understand the role of a slot corner. Mike Jackson is the literal definition of an outside zone corner, he would be totally inept as a slot corner. Ala why he has been an outside corner his entire career.
