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.

      Great season regardless of what happens. From starting out 4-14 to ending 44-38 is incredible progress and future is bright from here. I do think we can beat the Heat and then win on the road against either Orlando or Philly assuming Embiid doesn’t miraculously return sooner. But if not, a higher draft pick is nice too

      I know a DT that's asking for a trade: 🤔 maybe a home discount can be worked out. Dan Morgan could create up to $80 million in space through restructures of stars like Derrick Brown, Jaycee Horn, or Taylor Moton. They could also include players like Tershawn Wharton ($18.6M cap hit) in the trade to balance the salaries. Carolina Receives: DT  Dexter Lawrence II New York Receives: 2026 2nd Round Pick (No. 51 Overall): A premium Day 2 selection that fits the for  Lawrence  after his 0.5-sack season in 2025. WR  Xavier Legette : A young, high-upside receiver who provides the playmaking depth HC John Harbaugh needs for his offense. 2026 4th Round Pick: Immediate mid-round value. 2027 4th Round Pick (via MIN): Future capital acquired in the  Adam Thielen  trade.  ----- Stone Forsythe* (another young player as a potential trade option)provides immediate offensive line retooling for HC John Harbaugh.    John Harbaugh's history in Baltimore proves he values draft volume over individual superstars.    Just my 2cents

      Moved to Tuesday, not Wednes because of scheduling with Flyers game or something in Philly. But I don't feel good about the Heat.  It has been a great season regardless.  Team just been playing so hard to move up since a bad start and just picked a bad time to get gassed.  It's like almost everyone is shooting cold at the same time even wide open shots.   Maybe atmosphere and playoffs kick off a spark.  I'd rather be in a series than a one and done though. The team has a good foundation to build on regardless of what happens.
