Walker was a player with way more experience in the league but still had to fight for a roster with a guy who was just getting started.

When they had their preseason battle, pretty much everyone agreed Grier performed better, but Walker had Rhule in his corner, so...

Now just a short time (and good coaching) later, Grier is looking way better. Meanwhile, PJ is still a guy who will, as the saying goes "make big plays...for both teams".

Would you honestly think PJ is capable of the kind of performance Grier put on last night (even in preseason)?

Lmao if PJ gets back on an active roster first you owe me a beer now @Mr. Scot

Eh, DL and CB.  Remember BC can play left tackle and Mayes can play RT, Corbett will return eventually too.  With Jackson's and Horn's injury history, I'd like one more corner as insurance.

Chin can move to corner if needed.  I’m sure we will stash a couple on the PS too.  But yeah, I wouldn’t be shocked if we add a CB at some point.

He's listed as nickel on the "official" depth chart, not safety. So technically a CB.

You didn't know that was coming? It's been talked about for days.

The Cowboys agreed to let Grier audition in the last preseason game after they traded for Lance.

Speculation right now is the delance trade signals negotiations with Dak Prescott aren't going particularly well.

Jones didn't even consult with his head coach before he did this trade.

There is no master plan, just Jerry being hot in the pants about a potential "generational talent" being available on the cheap.

Isn’t that what got Watson in trouble in Houston?

Speaking of Watson, how does that five year, fully guaranteed $230 million mega contract look about now?

    • So happy that LaMelo got the layup to go and *won* the game. How happy he was after the game, that's what a young dude like him needs to keep it going and keep the belief going. If we lose, LaMelo gets blamed, and he's got an offseason to be in his head and hear the noise like the last few years. The season might still have an ugly ending, but weirdly feels like last night was HUGE for this team moving forward.   
    • My thoughts on Carolina's post-season run: Obviously, the season began with a below average Freddie Andersen and everyone hoping Kochetkov would pick up the slack, until he got hurt. Enter Brandon Bussi who had a made-for-TV movie type run until the end of the season, when he came crashing back to earth, his save % drops under .900 and the team needs to score 5-6 goals to win games. Freddie has shown signs of a resurgence and Bussi looked pretty good the last 2 games of the season, but both sample sizes are small and questions abound for all 3 goalies. The physicality of playoff hockey will take its toll. Save for a few players, the Canes best players are small, their top 2 lines are small and there's no getting around that. The only way to protect the size disadvantage is a strong forecheck. Allowing opposing teams to establish the offensive zone and create board battles with smaller players will hurt Carolina. The Stankoven line could be a difference-maker. If they continue to play well against lower defensive pairs, it only adds to the depth of the team.  The Aho line had stretches of absenteeism during the season. The Canes cannot afford to have them dry up offensively and leave the scoring to Ehlers and the Stankoven line. If they aren't performing well, teams will simply roll their best lines out on the Canes best playing lines.  If the Canes can get by Ottawa and get some help from Boston against Buffalo, I think they have a legit shot to make the finals. Make no mistake, I think their toughest challenges are Ottawa and Buffalo in the East.
