2 Different players

Lawson is 6’2 or so… 265lbs. Missed most of last year with an injury- 29 years old. Not flashy but had 7 sacks 2 years ago and was pretty good vs the run.

Yannick is at least 20 pounds lighter (also about 6’2)and more of a speedy sack specialist. He has had 9.5 and 10 sack seasons in the past but only had 4 in 13 games last year. Also 29

The Panthers, since Tepper took over haven't been the next shot for underappreciated athletes like we'd hoped. We've become the "last stop for a big paycheck before retirement team." 

We really would be better served by picking up more rando UDFA at this point and giving them a try out than flinging a couple more million at some almost coulda beens that are at the end of their leash.

Invest in our own future, not in some other team's past.

      The reason Freddie didn't dress

      Yep, you're right. I forgot about that. Fly was banged up, but RBA put him on the ice for a reason, too. Could have put KK out there, but there was a purpose for Deslauriers on the ice.

      I wasn’t speaking of Metchie in the context that I referenced Renfro  I couldn’t, he hasn’t played a snap for us    My Metchie esteem level is just not real high. As an NFL WR.  I am no expert on WRs it’s just what I think based on how it has gone for him as a pro  If he can’t catch on here with his old buddy then who is left? I am not wishing him any misfortune and hope he does well because that means we stole some talent; basically for free to boot.

      Thornton and Lee III

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      No one said it would be a permanent thing.  The best thing about having more than two good corners is that you can play them in different position which changes how a QB sees the play unfolding.  You put question marks on a QB you had a second or so of decision making and gives our improved (hopefully) DL a chance to sack him.  If Thornton and Lee turn out to be studs you have 4 good CBs that can be used all over the defense.  That's a good thing.  If you are looking at it just based on salary it is kind of weak take.
