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.

    • Brother re-check that guarantee...my page shows 30mill.....thats means he's staying in my book for at least til the end of 2026.  Im going to be my normal honest self, besides watching like half of the SB, I didn't know the guy. My guess is Panthers have a "planned model of paying players" and they almost had to spend a chunk of space on a DLman after Dbrown injury season gave them a nightmare out-come of worst D in NFL scoring. Once Milton got above Dbrown payments, they went with the plan B. A player whom the "co-GM" put his name with. Brad said turk would not be a problem off-field and leader, which the Panthers need badly. I dug in with the google-fu, I found out  I also found him playing lots of NT, which was shocking given the small frame. He seems ready for a bigger role and had a great SB too. IDK, I feel Dan Morgan was dead set on not going into this season without more DL depth and its there. The real deal is this, nearly all FA take one year to "adjust". I think turk is trying too hard and causing injuries as a result for his contract. Dbrown called turk "strong as hell" and I know for a fact Dbrowns has insane core and strength numbers. They lift together with the 50 LB difference...... you always lift with a guy who's similar in strength cause you can leave on the 8 wheels, let the other guy lift while you rest and go after him.  I do wish he had a better beginning to his panther career, 3 games for him to do so and it would cover up the low points if he made a few plays.... Again it felt like they almost had to make move/spend $$$ and Morgan was going to have DL depth this season no matter what...My best guess. 
    • There's a reason DC wasn't getting calls to be a HC. He wasn't ready. His indecisiveness is infuriating. His lack of awareness is mystifying. He jumped at the chance to grab the David Tepper retirement plan and who can really blame him. Maybe with time he can grow into the job. But we're on year 8 of our 7 year rebuild. I think I'm gonna need a hip replacement before we get a decent HC.
