For real.

Over K'lavon Chaisson.

If our depth is as bad as you all say it is at Pass rusher, just think about how bad he must have actually been.

 

It's not chaisson being cut, its the miss-manage with the cap and timing of the cut. Panthers gave the guy 1 million in guarantees and news comes out they are 8 mill in the red. 

Timing wise, he's been here for all the OTAs, mini, TC etc. He even made it past the big cut and now days before the week one.... at the weakest spot??

FYI - if you take away clowney the Panthers have ZERO NFL sacks on the the roster at OLB. ZERO. If you add up DTs and LBs, is what 3.55 form 2023? I think 87 year old Troy hill is #2 in sacks or maybe Shaq is. Still the fact is the team struggles with sacks and that was with luvu&BB.  

 

Awful timing(theme for them), terrible cap management, and zero sacks for the group.

I was like “Adam Thielen is a legit sleeper”

He was WR 60 and he was our #1 last year.

Man that hit me like a fresh pack of ZA, our one ranked 60th got d…. Yea I’m expecting Bryce to look light years better with the new additions a real number one WR who could potentially get big YAC early and often. Guards who can block and a coach who understands modern NFL philosophy. We’ll know what’s what Sunday around 4.

How was it mis-managed? They made waiver claims that changed the cap situation. Saying it was mis-managed is just talking out your ass. Maybe it was, maybe it wasn’t, you have no clue. What we do know is Chaisson did absolutely nothing with his considerable opportunities both here and Jacksonville, was not worth his contract, and is easily replaced for less money. Also, Wonnum is supposed to be the starting OLB on the other side of Clowney so there’s your other sacks on the roster, he just happens to be injured but he’ll be back.
 

We knew depth would be an issue all off-season and they are dealing with it the best they can as far as I can tell but there’s only so much that can be done because of that salary cap you seem very concerned they be under at all times. You don’t like where the cap money is distributed and that’s really all this is, it’s not like they’re 50m under refusing to address needs. Too early to crucify this regime for dealing with the hand dealt by the last. I for one am more than happy they invested in OL at the expense of some defensive depth because the most important thing to evaluate this season is whether we have a franchise QB.

Also throw in when you are a bottom tier team you have to take some risks and slightly overpay to attract some players. Unfortunately that’s part of it. 

Nobody gets a discount.  It's rare but sometimes a ring chaser will give a discount.  >90% of the time they go where the money is.  That's free agency.  That's why drafting is so critical.

      Schrader / Jeremiah mock draft experiment

      By strato · Posted

      We have taken two TEs in three seasons I think, and Sanders may not pan out or it may have been a sophomore slump, but we took a guy last year that was coming on.  I am not in favor of TE in round one and really don’t consider it a high priority in any round.

      Draft intel from ESPN’s Jordan Reid

      Trevon Moehrig, Turk Wharton, Bobby Brown, Jaelen Phillips, Devin Lloyd, Nic Scourton Giving him 6 starters in 2 offseasons that cost boat loads of money or a 2nd round pick... Not exactly handing the man scraps. The point of the draft is to make the team better. You want to make this about Bryce. It isn't. It's about improving the team. And if anyone can look at our offense and go "we're good", they are lying to themselves. You give quarterbacks weapons. We SCREAMED for YEARS to give Cam some help. But now because we are trying to do it for Bryce, you all are saying we are coddling him because of his "deficiencies". It's a double-standard because you don't like the guy, clearly. But even if he does fail, guess what? The next guy has help too. Win-win.

      we have 2 solid/above average (however you want to phrase that) wr's, which is more than half the league at least.  We dont need to be blowing more first round capital just to placate Bryce and his limitations.   We have one absolute stud (probably top 10 wr) in tmac and we have a high floor guy with insane potential if he can stay healthy.  Yeah man we are in better shape than the bulk of the teams in the league.  If you need to add some speed or whatever, sure draft in the mid rounds or wait until tc cuts.  Its monumentally stupid to spend 3 straight firsts on a wr if thats the route they go.  ITs just more and more excuses for Bryce, thats where we are at now.    "How can bryce succeed without a big possession type wr (drafts 2 for him), how is bryce supposed to exceed without a speed guy......."   Its fuging never ending.  Give EE some goddamn help on defense for once
