Panthers looking at DE Marques Douglas


Mr. Scot

Recommended Posts

Per Gantt in the Herald and the Observer.

He'd likely be picked up to fill Brayton's shoes. Douglas is 32 (shortly 33) but before you get too hyped up on that, realize that's only two years older than Brayton. Scouting reports would likely tell you that he's overall better than Brayton. At this point, he's probably best suited as a rotational player.

So why go older at this position, you ask? The answer would be to get a guy who can function like Brentson Buckner did, i.e. a smart, veteran presence who can help tutor the younger players in the details of the game.

So should we pretty much give up on re-signing Brayton? Sounds like he really loves it here. A whole new starting defensive line sounds harsh lol.

They have already tried to resign Brayton and couldn't reach an agreement. After the Panthers didn't reach an agreement with him is when he started looking at other teams.

    • Bryce has been playing the best ball of his career the last three games IMO. He wasn't the reason we dropped the game in NOLA. Seattle's defense will be his toughest challenge yet this season 
    • I'll be at the game Sunday and up until last year I had a perfect attendance record. Now however I have seen us lose to the Chiefs (last year) and the Bills (this year). So we can no longer rely solely on my ability to pound overpriced beers to propel us to a win. 
    • I haven't been able to watch Seattle on a dedicated basis but the Seahawks are a much better team by the all accounts: eye test, record and DVOA. Defensively they are sick. Best DVOA in the league first in rushing and second in passing. Offensively their passing game has been on fire this year led by JSN I can easily see this being like the Buffalo game where things just get out of hand for us early, that being said this league really is week to week and Seattle does have the disadvantage of traveling cross country for an early game.  If and big if, the Panthers are able to effectively run the ball and limit the amount of time Seattle's offense has to generate explosive plays we have a path to winning this game.  Seattle fans won't be happy to hear this but bad Darnold is always lurking in the background. He is truly an enigma to root for bc he will have an incredible throw that only a few people can make but then will turn around and throw the most bone headed pick of all time.  I think ultimately we drop this one as ultimately it's human nature to be looking forward to that week 18 game. But man how special would it be to be leaving the stadium on Sunday with a win and a miracle dolphins upset
