PFF - best and worst 2021 NFL free agent signings

WORST

 

OC/OG Pat Elflein, signed with the Panthers for three years, $11.5 million

Another of the curious moves the Panthers made last offseason was prioritizing Elflein and Cam Erving during the first days of free agency, bringing in two players who had an extensive history of sub-par play along the offensive line. Neither player exceeded expectations in Year 1, as Elflein played just 534 snaps and earned a 42.0 PFF pass-blocking grade and a 50.1 overall mark. Elflein accrued multiple games with a PFF grade under 30, and he earned below-average marks as a run-blocker in every game except one.

I thought Elflein was playing somewhat better as a C at the end of the season.  Maybe a little below league average but OK.   However PFF puts him as one of the worst C in the league.  Ouch !

pre injury PFF had fat Matt paradis as one of the best centers in the league and he has been abysmal with Carolina. What’s your point, Ventura?

Oh and another NFL WORST signing was Sam Darnold (when his extension is included).  So it's a twofer for the Panthers.   Yay ! 

If we would have built around him I would think he would be better. We did exactly what the jets did to him. Sad really. I don’t want to do the Watson deal because I want to build it up. We do this, we don’t compete for another 3 years.

To be fair, you could put a tackling dummy at center and it would be better than Paradis.

We've had some bad offensive line play on this franchise but I think he's easily among the worst.  He reminds me of that French Canadian guy (Foucaults something or other I don't remember) that got shoved in at tackle against the Eagles on MNF on 2014 because of injuries to the Bell/Chandler juggernaut. 

I remember watching a replay from one of our godawful wastes of an afternoon last year where Paradis got bull rushed into Darnold's lap without getting so much as a hand on the defender.  He snapped the ball and just got moved backwards ten yards.  Sadly I agree that Elflein is probably an upgrade over him.

LOL! Why? He's fuging terrible.

No choices. Limited cap. No worthwhile player wants to come here. Poor evaluating by coaching. And finally a gutted draft.

There are simply no options.

Considering the state and future of the team in 2019, this is called regressing.

Also known as invisible progressing according to Rhule.

      Panthers Blueprint: Draft

      By TD alt · Posted

      Two things: 1. Dr. Eric Eager is central to the draft process 2. I know that it was edited, but we didn't hear "Thieneman" one time, not even before the Vikings pick.

      Why would he sign here as a guard when surely someone would sign him as a tackle?  Assuming he is healthy

      Went back to watching the highlights. With a sober mind haha. Here is what I saw.    freddie needs to make 1 of those but the rest aren’t on him.    Slavin was BBBBAAAD again last night. Not sure what is going on with these game one Slavin gafs.    miller was ok but had his worst game in the playoffs so far.    nikishin was no good. His his awful turnover led to the first goal at the end of the first period that just can’t happen. ghost was beat like a drum multiple times last night, including the go-ahead goal at the end jarivs wont shoot. He is either hurt or he is struggling mentally and I think it could be a combination of both. He passed up a wide open net on the power-play only to pass it to no one and cleared it himself.     Svech played well. He is getting zero help on that line.    aho. Worst game as a pro. I mean that. He won’t shoot it, passes go to no one and turns it over repeatedly.  He did exactly what they did against Montreal game one when Miller had a turnover. Aho left his man to go help and left the golden Knight player wide open in front of Freddie.  If I was Rod, you Tell Aho when that thing hits your stick you fire it  someone needs to sit him down just him in a room and ask what’s going on. He seems soft, timid and has zero fire.   canes could have won that game   There isn’t a gap between these two teams  they are dead even   Carter Hart’s gonna get lit up in this series. We can beat that guy. the consensus last night was our defense played horrible and our stars won’t score.  clean the defense up. Tell the top line to shoot it everything and we’ll win tomorrow night.   Possibly convincingly.
