Panthers sign DT Derek Landri:

Panthers claimed DT Derek Landri off waivers from the Jaguars.

A worthwhile pickup for Carolina. At 282 pounds, Landri won't solve the Panthers' run defense woes, but he is more explosive than current backup "three technique" Nick Hayden. He's also signed cheaply through 2010.

The guy is very solid. I think the Panthers will have a lot of competition at the position next year.

When big kemo steps on the field again these guys are going to be out....plenty of trade bait in my view.

Kemo might not be back as the starter- coming into this season that was a problem b/c of lack of depth and b/c Kemo was one dimensional......now add in a possible new coach to that?

overall we have some great guys NOW at DT and should be able to make things work next year. Kemo I think will be part of a bigger rotation.

i don't know...gantt pointed out that this is the third DT we have "rescued" from a team changing form a 4-3 to a 3-4 defense. we'll probably have more coming our way, actually. by the time all is said and done the DL will probably be as stacked as the OL was last year.

i wonder how many 4-3 DEs who couldn't find a place at OLB or DE in a 3-4 we are going to get in the offseason? not sure there is a huge need but if we relieve ourselves from the peppers burden that need might be there.

this makes me wonder if we are going to go with a 5 man DL with 3 DTs the rest of the season some times. that would make for an interesting pass rush.

without a viable option at WLB i would rather us go with only 2 LBs and use either 5 DBs or 5 DL and let beason and diggs/connor/anderson take care of the middle of the field.

btw...just saw from gantt that tank was put on IR as well to make room for Landri. 10th player on IR this year.

I think Jarvis Moss could be an interesting pick up from the broncos. He's stuck in the 3-4. Maybe he could find a home in the 4-3.

maybe. he's an interesting prospect. kind of an underachiever, though. borderline headcase. thought about retiring cause he didn't like having to move to a 3-4 and didn't think he fit. dude's only 25 years old and was drafted in '07. who does that?

still, might be decent in another locale and situation. he'd be cheap enough. 17th pick in the first round in '07. maybe could be had for a 6th or 7th rounder. he could even be cut. in 3 years only 19 tackles 3.5 sacks, 1 FF and 1 PD....not exactly someone you hold onto for dear life.

      Injury report

      By CRA · Posted

      I don’t know what to tell yall,  literally a NFL QB in slow motion breaks down where the ball should have gone and when…and the difference it provides Renfrow on that play.  It’s two different worlds for the WR.   Oh, and it’s probably then a completion of course

      Bryce Young is a problem — what would you do if you were Dan Morgan?

      By Loyalty4Life · Posted

      The question was if you were Morgan what would you do with the team since Bryce is a bust.  I don't agree at all he is and I certainly don't blame the fans for his play. Fans being short sighted and dumb is totally separate from the question posed and in no way did I say or indicate that my fault of any coaching or on field play is the fault of said fans. My answer is I would Keep Pounding and methodically building.  If Bryce turns out to be a bust, then yes, horrible mistake.  The trade capital makes it even worse.  Just because we traded up for Bryce doesn't change anything now.  We begged for a methodical build and now we are doing it.  Right now.  And all it took was one bad game after all the progress last year for you to fold. If the Jags game is just another dip in the Bryce/Canales stock on the way up then the plan is still working. Canales, Morgan and company are one year in.  Building methodically.  Improving overall.  One bad game doesn't prove me right or you wrong.  And Bryce's play, which was bad, in that game isn't the last straw saying, yep, now there's is zero chance.  Let's cut him, maybe fire the coach, look for a new GM and start all over again.
