I believe that Johnson and Brown will start for us this year. Maybe they are looking to add someone for our Pass rush on 3rd and longs. Brown, Brayton, Johnson, and selvie rushing the passer sounds pretty good.

I am not 100% sold that Brown will be the other starter. Need to see how he has bulked up and does against the run. I could still see another season of Brayton starting...briging in Brown on passing downs and rotation.

I like getting back to the type of rotation we had with Buckner, Peppers, and Wallace....basically 3 starters.

I understand he was constantly double teamed. But that didn't stop players like Morgan and Graham from still making an impact. He doesn't have enough strength to play with his hand in the dirt and has trouble gaining/maintaining weight. He's prob better suited for 3-4 OLB.

If you guys would get mad when Peppers would get blocked by TE's, I think you are going to be extremely dissapointed with Selvie. I would take a late round flyer on him but nothing more.

The facts are more like,

Hurney/Fox: Brian we need you to go to South Florida for some scouting. I know its rough, but we pay for all expenses.

Baker:, oww, oww, stop twisting my arm. Man a paid trip to south florida; this job sucks.

Am I the only one who thinks Selvie is horrible? He's a fifth/sixth round prospect now. He's a marginal player who would ONLY be coming in on obvious passing downs.

ok take it from someone who has season tix to USF.....Selvie will be the better DE over time than JPP.JPP only has played one year of CFB...now take that as you will

This... I think it was me who said elsewhere that JPP will be like Derrick Harvey... but maybe slightly better... which isn't saying much at this point...

      That's my biggest concern with making him the 2C.  You split up the Aho Jarvis bromance that accounted for a lot of points.  If Jarvis excels as a C, it could help the team even more though.

      Barnwell - Ranking WR, TE, RB Groups in NFL

      By PanthersNCSU · Posted

      The Saints being that high is the one that killed me. Chris Olave might not know his name at this point, Shaheed is coming off injury as well, so 31 year old Brandin Cooks might be your best WR...coming off a 260 yard season over 10 games. Kamara is Kamara, but didn't have 1,000 yards last year and is about to turn 30.  Toss in the fact that Taysom Hill may be the best QB on the team and I truly don't understand Barnwell's thoughts beside seeing the names "Olave" and "Kamara" and going yep, that sounds better than "Chuba" and "Thielen".

      Barnwell - Ranking WR, TE, RB Groups in NFL

      By TD alt · Posted

      Now now now, I wouldn't say there is no logic, but there's just not a lot of in-depth thought put into Barnwell's  "analysis." Now to be fair to him (and other national writers), pre-season team rankings are basically clickbait. And...Barnwell, himself, said that "there's a lot of projection here." He basically admits that he doesn't know how the hell things are going to turn out with our receiver group. He also said that "I find myself" more intrigued by Coker than Legette; that does not mean that he said that fans should be, or that Coker will even be better than Legette (regardless of ESPN's per-route-run stat). So, yeah, Barnwell said some things, but even he has to basically admit that he doesn't know how bad or good that our playmakers will be in 2025.  Overall, what Barnwell is basically thinking is that the Panthers have gotten worse at the offensive skill positions, and baked into that is that others have gotten better. That's the argument in July (meaning, please don't give this any more weight than it's due). I would personally be surprised (not shocked) if we end up worse than the Titans, Pats and Giants at least. Once you throw in the Bills, Giants, Jets, Steelers, and even the Chargers, I personally think there are several teams' skill groups that may end up ranked lower than ours by the end of 2025.  @kungfoodudeis one of my dudes, but like others he is over the tipping point. He's had enough. Seeing is believing. I will say this though: Barnwell's piece is less about logic than just good ol' opinion. And to be honest, he might as well be a Huddler throwing out sh¡t in the summer based upon nothing but good feels or bad feels.  Our offense as a whole (just like any other team's) is going to depend upon the play of the O-line and especially the QB. How you can even rank the skill positions without expressly baking those two things in the cake is beyond me. I would dare say that that's not even logical.
