his last actual NFL rep was over 3 years ago. 

I would assume it takes legit time to get your body for the every down car wreck that is a NFL snap.   And it's why I would pump the breaks on Corbett being a game changer for us this week.

Who?

the RB we signed a couple weeks back.  The one who fits the mold of a Bryce Young offense.  The type we should of added this past offseason.  But given we waited so late we added an injured one that hasn't played since 2020 to try to rehab back into shape. 

but old Cohen was legit.   No telling what he looks like now.

While I agree...in that case, why sign him?

Hard to believe the play book is that deep.

Well we have to go deeper into it than we've been to really utilize him. His skillset's like CMC and our ground game been a lot of power running up the middle. So he has to get up to speed AND the offense needs to evolve a good bit. We may toss him a couple screens though.

FWIW, it could be lip service but Tarik thinks he's in the best shape of his career. That ACL is worrisome though because dude's whole thing was making fast cuts.

Because there was a time when he was pretty good, and there's a chance he could be again.

Especially considering that it was just to the practice squad, why not?

I agree with that, and I guess if the plan is to hold him there bc he's 80% done getting his body ready cool.  But if you sign a guy, and when he's needed he can't be called on I don't see the point.  His ceiling based on history (I could be wrong) is just above average.  So with that, why not just go sign another HEALTHY just above average guy lol.

Oh I definitely remember him being better than just above average. He might also be a better style fit for what we're running.

I'd add that the word "healthy" is kind of important in our backfield right now. I don't think Sanders has been healthy all season.

It's been more than a couple of weeks. It's probably about five or six now. Who knows what the hell's going on? I hope the comeback happens, and I hope that it happens successfully.

    • awesome interview. Love the guy. 
    • all the trades and using PFFs draft rankings and Gemini's analysis: This is a high-value mock draft that effectively uses trade-down strategies to rebuild the Carolina Panthers' defensive interior and add depth to a roster with multiple holes. By turning mid-round capital into a volume of picks, you've secured several "sliding" stars and developmental high-ceiling players. Based on 2026 PFF big board trends and player value, here is the analysis: Draft Grade: A- The Top Picks: Interior Dominance  * 19. Peter Woods (DT, Clemson): Getting Woods at 19 is a steal. Heading into the 2025 season, he was viewed as a potential top-5 talent. While his production dipped slightly, his 4.75 40-yard dash at 315 lbs is elite. He provides the Panthers with a versatile disruptor who can play 3-tech or slide outside.  * 63. Dontay Corleone (DT, Cincinnati): "The Godfather" is one of the best pure nose tackles in the class. Pairing him with Woods creates an immediate identity for the Panthers' front seven. PFF loves his "unmovable" anchor. Securing him at the end of Round 2 after trading down from 51/53 is excellent value. The Mid-Round Steals  * 83. Deontae Lawson (LB, Alabama): Lawson is a high-IQ "green dot" linebacker. Many scouts projected him as a late 1st or early 2nd rounder before an ACL injury in late 2024. Getting a 2-time Alabama captain at 83 to lead the defense is a massive win for culture and stability.  * 130. Drew Allar (QB, Penn State): This is the "high-upside lottery ticket" pick. Allar has prototypical size (6'5", 240 lbs) and a massive arm. His stock fell due to a 2025 ankle injury and inconsistency, but at 130, he’s a low-risk, high-reward backup/successor to Bryce Young if the former No. 1 pick continues to struggle. Trade Analysis & Late Round Value Your strategy of "tier-dropping" (trading 51 for 53/121 and 53 for 63/95) allowed you to stay in the same talent bracket while picking up Kevin Coleman Jr. (WR) and Genesis Smith (S).  * 168. Parker Brailsford (OC, Alabama): Great value for a technical center who can compete for a depth spot.  * 169. Tacario Davis (CB, Washington): At 6'4", he is a rare physical specimen at corner. PFF and other boards often have him as a Day 2 talent; getting him in the 5th round (via the 161 trade) is arguably your best value pick of the draft. Summary of Picks | Pick | Player | Position | School | Analysis | | 19 | Peter Woods | DT | Clemson | Elite traits; Top-10 ceiling. | | 63 | Dontay Corleone | DT | Cincinnati | Best run stuffer in the class. | | 83 | Deontae Lawson | LB | Alabama | Vocal leader; sliding due to injury. | | 121 | Kevin Coleman Jr. | WR | Missouri | Speed threat to complement the room. | | 130 | Drew Allar | QB | Penn State | High-ceiling developmental passer. | | 169 | Tacario Davis | CB | Washington | Massive reach/length for a late flyer. | Final Verdict You addressed the trenches aggressively and took advantage of "injury discounts" on Lawson and Allar. The only minor critique is that the roster still feels thin at Edge (until the 211 pick), but the sheer volume of talent added to the interior DL and Secondary compensates for it.
