I don't think we can put a number on it, considering the limited playing time he's received. Nor can we fully evaluate at this point if the trade was worth it.

That being said, I think he's progressed along nicely. He was being pushed around quite a bit early on, but for the most part he seems to be holding his own out there. I like his determination to improve, and hope it goes a long way for him.

currently has 16 tackles, 1.5 sacks and 2 FF

tackles = sad but shud be expected with a limited role and being a pass rush specialist. his sack total is depressing too being with gambled BIG to get him. the 2 FF is nice but doesn't coverup the stink of 16 tackles and 1.5 sacks

if he grabs 2-3 more sacks and 10-15 more tackles in the next 4 games- i might consider the trade to get him not a total ass-hat move

i'm not upset. I'm happy we've had the luxury to spread out his playing time. And there alot of guys on that list that a lot of people pushed for over the last few years that are doing worse.

I wonder how Gholston would do in the 43?

I have wondered that myself. At the rate he is bottoming out, he could be had pretty darn cheap.

Would not be surprised if he is a casualty in the capless of-season. If not a low rounder could aquire him, although I doubt our FO would be interested as I believe it's his work ethic that is keeping him off the active game day roster.

it's funny because it seems like he's still really surprised that he can't simply push NFL tackles out of the way.

I'm pretty sure he has more than 1.5 sacks, that doesn't sound right at all. And he's had alot of sacks just barely slip away from him all year. He could have had 2 on Sunday.

Yeah, he was wearing out that Tampa LT late in that game. You can definitely see that he's progressing.

      this     I never cease to be amazed at the number of people who will run up their blood pressure to get to the grocery store 30 seconds faster or are racing to get to work like it won’t be there at 8:02.   The only thing I’ve ever done that I think added more years to my life besides quitting smoking, was to learn to go with the flow behind the wheel.

      The term you're looking for is "malinger(ed)", and he didn't.  I'm not sure why Panthers fans act like jaded ex girlfriends.  The dude is clearly injury prone as his time in San Fransico also proves. It's not like he got to San Fran and stopped having problems.

      My long and rambling post:   The guy is all heart, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he came back even better next year. He’s exactly the guy you lock up. The money won’t ever change the way he plays.  It was a big fumble, but what 1,000 yard back fumbles once in an entire season?  Pride. This team is FINALLY seeing guys who obviously take the game very seriously. Hunt, Chuba, Thielen, Brown, Horn (CB), Coker, Bryce (IMHO). Bye bye, Spider-Man. I don’t see these dudes being OK with teammates half-assing practice or in games. I can see Brown and Horn coming over to talk to somebody.  Good team? Ummm, maybe, but will still likely lose more close games than they win unless this last draft turns in to LOB part 2. That’s a stretch.  Pretty good/decent team. Yes. They finished the season as a pretty good team. I know I sound like a broken record harping back to it, but going in to ATL and putting a 40 burger on them en route to an OT win. A bad Panthers team would have had their brakes beaten off. We’ve seen it.  Rose colored glasses on and bonging a 40 of hopium: There are watershed moments that occur that change the course of franchises, both good and bad. If Fox doesn’t pull Rodney at halftime, the epic journey that was 2003 never happens. On the negative side, Cam taking that one hit from Watt was the end of any and all Panthers relevancy and we’ve been the biggest losers in all of pro sports as a result. Watershed moments. LOB draft. Vinny goes down and the goat is born.  Will the ATL game be the spark that this franchise has desperately needed? Could it be that they hit the mega million jackpot with Princley and Scourton as eat QBs for breakfast? Sure would be nice having 2 all-pro edge guys on the cheap for the next 4 years.  A lot of unknowns, but at least it actually feels  fun again.
