It won't shock me if our corners this season are mainly UDFA guys.

This team could easily have a zero-win season. 😂poo.

D'Shawn Jamison and Dicaprio Bootle will be the starters. Bookmark it!

For three seasons gamble wasn’t even the best corner on the roster. 

I do not understand the gamble mythologizing and I never will. 

he was fine

Well we are at two ends of the debate here, I feel hes vastly underrated and you vastly over. For sure he would be on my all-time panther team, Id even list him as the #1 CB easy. He is like moton/kalil very quiet with very good steady long term play. He wasnt scared to tackle like many CBs are(bad technique tho). He finished 5th all-time and you know the MLB studs panther history has(hes above minter a tackle machine). he has 9 more INTs than 2nd place and 13 more than the next CB on the list. Most times he kept #1 WR in check, there were times he followed them. He had huge success rate in advance stats- in the 2011 season Gamble allowed a catch every 18.1 snaps in coverage. That's 2nd best in the NFL. QB's had a 45% completion rate when throwing at Gamble, which is 4th best in the league. He could play zone and man at the same good levels. Other CBs had better single seasons, but not careers.

    • Oh it's nothing elite, but we played without Horn last year.  Gilly playing at 80% is better than any CB2 we have had in a moment.  Luvu was fun, but he was out of position in Evero's defense.  Jewell is a tackling machine and has had over 100 in 3 of his last 4 with his highest being at Denver with Evero.  Pass Rushing and CBs are strong red flags but they also were last year.  On paper it's the same or maybe slightly better than last year and Evero had them keeping us in some games.  Hell our 2 wins were due to the defense and the kicking game.
    • I mean best case scenario is horn plays 15ish games, brown and clowney replicate last years stats, we sign gilmore and he reverts back to form after his injury but even then we still lack pass rush and our linebackers are dogshit.  And thats best case.  If horn goes down and if clowney starts showing his age then it could get ugly.  We are going to miss the tenacity of luvu.
    • Well you have year 2 of the new scheme so several players should be more comfortable.   Vs last year DL we added Robinson to play DE giving Brown a solid presence on the other side, plus he is familiar with Evero (I don't like Shy at NT but he was there last year too)  LB- Clowney and Wonnum are more complete/probably better than Burns and YGM, Jewell and Shaq are better than Luvu and whatever random guy from the streets we had playing last and again Jewell is familiar with Evero CB- This is a big red flag but vs last year we kept Hill at slot, we lost Henderson and replaced him with Jackson which seems like a wash to me.  If we can sign Gilly I will consider this upgraded but as of now it's a weakness and a wash Safety- Fuller replaces Bell as an upgrade who is also familiar with Evero.  I think we signed another vet in Scott as depth   Depth is still an issue no doubt but it looks slightly better on paper than last year IMO...
