He's not playing well. It's really obvious. That doesn't mean he's definitely a bust. But the handful of kf folks who can't take any Bryce criticism are just not being rational in my honest opinion.

I'm a huge Bryce supporter, but I will admit I thought he'd be playing better than this early on.

But I also thought this was his best game so far. PFF graded him a lot better against the Vikings, but I'll take the two picks if it means not handling him with kid gloves the way we did in his first few starts.

Look who isn't on the bottom 5 def list two weeks in a row!  Way to go CJ!  

It is fun rooting for this kid with all the injuries at the CB position. 

CJ has quietly settled into Charlotte and playing a lot better.

He needs to be playing LB. It's so obvious at this point and I'm someone who defended him playing (strong) safety for a long time. He's a LB. Pure and simple. If we insist on not playing him at LB then yeah we need to just trade him already.

But is he an inside linebacker? Because in our scheme he basically has to be if he's going to play linebacker.

I don't think so; he's clearly a 4-3 outside linebacker, which means we don't really have a spot for him. This is why I'm not a fan of "tweener" athletes in the draft like him and Isaiah Simmons.

Versatility is great if you've got one set position you can play well and can do other things from that position; otherwise you're just a guy who does a little bit of everything well enough but not anything at a high level.

I haven't paid enough attention to our defensive formations this year, but I have to imagine we have some sort of big nickel package for passing downs (at least I hope so because I'm pretty sure most teams in the NFL do). He is perfect for that formation of being that hybrid linebacker/safety that we can ask to do a lot of different things.

Asking him to play safety and be in coverage (especially man) more times than not is precisely how to not use him effectively... The Vikings game from last year where he scored two touchdowns in 15 seconds is how to use him properly

      First OTA's Monday and Tuesday

      If you only look at measurables, Mingo and Legette might seem similar.  But when you actually look at them and watch them play, they aren't close to the same.   And this is coming from someone who is skeptical about Legette, although ultimately I believe he will work out.  I've just always disagreed with the comparisons to Mingo.   Mingo tests better than he plays/runs, whereas Legette plays/runs as well as he tests.

      Where will the wins come from? (my early predictions)

      By Mage · Posted

      As bad as things were with the Panthers last year, we still had 4 other games outside of the 2 we won that we came very close to winning.  Could throw the Falcons game in there too, it was tied going into the 4th. I'm not really sure what to expect this year.  I don't think we'll make the playoffs.  However, we play in a very weak division where no team has a standout QB.  On paper, our OL should be good, and could be great if Ikem improves.  That alone could help mask a lot of problems on offense.  Should allow us to run the ball better.  Even if Bryce doesn't improve, the OL should at the very least give him more time to make the easy throws underneath and let a guy like Legette work his magic after the catch. And I think this defense in a 2nd year with Evero should, at the very least, be in the top 16.  I'm expecting our run defense to be as good as it has been in years. I think this team could push for 7-8 wins.  But it could also finish with 2 wins again.  That is just how the league works.  Jets offense was miserable last year, and yet they still won 7 games.   We won't really get a good feel of it until after the preseason, and even then, who knows.
