Dan Connor-LB- Panthers Aug. 3 - 6:05 pm et

The Rock Hill Herald's Darin Gantt confirms that new Panthers MLB Dan Connor is not practicing as part of the team's nickel package.

The two nickel 'backers are WLB Jon Beason and SLB James Anderson. Connor isn't going to be an every-down player, so it's hard to get too excited about his prospects in IDP leagues. Beason remains the Carolina linebacker to target.

thats what i do in madden for what its worth. you want the best guys on the field for what you are trying to do. if you drop a linebacker in normal situations it would be the will on madden by default. in last years roster that would take davis out and leave beason and diggs. that made no since to me so i would sub in davis. now i do the same thing for connor. i know that madden isnt real before i get reamed, bit it has a lot of real situations there and that just happens to be where i picked that up. im not surprised by that. connor is just a little slow to stay in in deff passing downs.

    • Night and day difference in the front office investements.  Since Morgan has been in the FO (5 years)....4 out of 5 first round picks have been offensive players.  The one defensive pick was a corner. Expand it out to the first 2 rounds? 7 out of the 9 picks have been offensive.  That IMO is why our D sucks so bad.   You build defenses up front.   Carolina hasn't been investing there.  Ron's first 5 years? 3 of the 5 first round picks were defensive players.  Expand it all to include second rounders  7 of the 10 picks were defensive.  All front 7 players.     
    • I think he gets this year to show what he can do.  Last year, we had a lot of injuries. This year, we should have some players, even if we lose one or two.  It's the first preseason game.  Some of the starters weren't even in it.  There is no scheming or game planning.  Let's see how guys do when it counts. I think we have a GM that knows a thing or two about defense.  Let it play out.
    • I was ok with the mentor aspect of keeping Dalton, but wow has he fallen off the deep end. The slow behind the WR interception was awful. I keep hearing our WRs created no separation, but on that particular play dude was wide open and Dalton couldn't get it to him with a clean pocket. Next year, we need to address the backup QB spot haaaaaard!
