Yeah but he really did impress me on Sunday. Made some great pass breakups and played tight coverage all game.

He did as good of a job as any CB can reasonably be expected to do on Justin Jefferson.

this. he was picked on all day and did incredibly well considering. it won't take long before QBs are throwing somewhere else. once we get Gilmore in and Horn back, it could get ugly for QBs we face.

Yep, the Vikings went into the game with him as a target. He played very well with all things considered.

Yea he was on the WR most of the time and they made some sick catches. It shows that he can tackle which isn't being a dick its for real at least he can tackle. I can't remember him getting dusted the real issue for the defense was no pressure on the QB and long term run defense.

Run defense was great at first then fell off as they got pounded but the pass rush was not there.

Seriously. What did I miss between this past Sunday and all the games before that? Were we just not playing this kid? We obviously need to keep him out there!

That’s not a good thing. Theilan was having a field day with Taylor. Remember Richard Marshall? I used to play Marshall on fantasy every week because of just that. I do like Taylor more than Troy Pride.

I think you are definitely looking at him overly negatively.  Two of the catches he gave up off the top of my head he was in perfect position for and made a play to swat at the ball and the receivers just made a great play.  Also the infamous PFF (I know I know) had him rated as the third highest graded player on the defense.  Does that mean anything?  I think it at least means he played decent.  Especially for a 5th round rookie.

I like the kid. I wasn’t bashing him. I’m in your side. Just saying you don’t ever want a corner that have 10 tackles.

I mean, it's Adam Thielen.  One of the best WRs in the game when it comes to securing the ball in tight coverage.

As they should. It was a good strategy not uncommon, but Taylor showed he should be respected and is only gonna get better. 

Giving up catches is going to happen it's how the coverage is and the YAC given up or not and he was still on the WRs even if they caught it. Same with Horn who gave up a TD vs the Jets but was still good coverage.

      Panthers re-signing P Sam Martin

      By TheSpecialJuan · Posted

      Sam Martin   CARPunter#6 Panthers re-signed P Sam Martin to a two-year contract. NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports Martin’s deal is up to $5 million. Martin joined the Panthers last season on a one-year deal and wound up booting 56 punts for an average of 47.2 yards per punt. Martin is a 13-year vet of the league who has spent time with four different franchises. He landed a career-best 48.2 percent of his kicks inside his opponent’s 20-yard line last season.

      What to Consider when you Draft in Round 1

      By Basbear · Posted

      Surprised CB is that low.  19th is odd spot. For many recent drafts, teams only felt there were around 14 first round players.  So to many 19 is just an early second and doesn't hold the value of a first.  If you go off- the smart path of LT, QB, edge, WR, CB, etc. Whatever your OG, Safety, ILB, etc needs to be a difference maker, that's the key point. I've said the 8th best edge is better than the 1st safety. Same for QB and even WRs. You should 100% factor in position value.  MHS you've been wanting a FS, let me tell you its super difficult to be a difference making FS. You're just sooo farrrr away from the action and the end result most times. If you're in the play, defense made mistakes in order. Now to talk out of both sides, maaaaaann that white boy from Oregon....I thought he crushed the combine and honestly that alone made me rethink "is he worth 19 now?!?!" he's now in the discussion for me, but still below others.    Plus I feel TE is vastly underrated in value terms. But looking at the last 20 years of TEs in the first, its down right bad. You're better like X10 better drafting one in 4th or 5th.
