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.

      Major Concerns with this team…with numbers

      By Stumpy · Posted

      The good news is that we are pretty uniquely well established to address all of our needs this season. We have $14m real cap space, and something like $40m in trade deadline cap space. Not sure exactly how that works out. But, we have the room to absorb any bad contracts. With recent rule changes regarding retention, that went into effect this season, we now have a huge advantage in the trade market.  On top of that, while we do have obvious needs, we also have a glut of talent in certain areas that we struggle to find ice time for. We are over-stocked on scrappy talented lil-guys, strong defensively sound 3rd liners and shutdown left shot dmen. Whether it's a package or separate deals, idk. But, one of each from Stank/Blake/Nads, Erob/Carrier/KK/Jank, and Walker/Nystrom; throw in some 1st round picks (and frankly any other prospects they want) and we should be able to come out with a 1b to pair with Bussi and either a 2c with size or a 2c and size.   TL/DR We got the money, you got the stuff?

      I don’t  think 6’4 was ever considered small or undersized. Baby hands tho, yes that was his thing That’s an interesting idea, like an optical illusion? Sounds like you have personal experience with this!

      in the 25' draft the Carolina Panthers had hired Brandt Tillis someone who actually understood how to build a successful team & build through the draft .  this team was yes mismanaged for years prior to Brandt Tillis joining the team in 25' & rarely done anything right in the draft outside occaionaly getting lucky on an UDFA such as Jalen Coker who's dad coincidentally happened to be a huge Carolina Panthers fan, hint hint  ...just saying
