Everette Brown haters

dude's gonna tear it up this year. between him, charles johnson, brayton, and hardy on the line i think we're gonna have one of the better d-lines in the league.

I agree. Even before the draft, I said that I was far more confident in our defensive ends than our tackles. Grabbing Hardy in the draft just added another good end for us.

I really can't stand the word "hater". Just because somebody isn't impressed with one player doesn't mean they hate them. It's just a petty tactic to discredit others that a person disagrees with.

I'm not confident in Jarrett but it doesn't mean I hate him or want him to fail.

Brown wasn't all that impressive last year. When it comes down to it his lower weight isn't an excuse. He should be deservingly held to a high standard because of what we gave up to get him. I think anybody who isnt' impressed tonight probably isn't being fair. But if somebody wants to wait to see more then they aren't a hater.

I'm still trying to figure out why people think Brown was so bad last year. I thought he was actually pretty good, for a rookie who got limited playing time. He didn't get a lot of sacks, but he got plenty of hurries and helped his teammates get sacks, which is just about as good. Also I wish everybody would stop assuming that he, or any other DE, can't play the run just because they don't weigh 290lbs. It's not just about how big you are, it's about how quickly you can read the play, use leverage, and get off of blocks. I saw Peppers get blocked out of running plays plenty of times, because he was too straight up.

lol typical panther forums poo

trash posters who freak out about armanti sucking nuts,

then claim all glory with a top 5 defense/team because hardy and brown etc are doing good.

if preseason means absolutely nothing than who cares what kind of defense/sacks are being racked up.

    • TBH, these are the kind of players that get weeded out of professional sports pretty quickly. Also, CMC is not that guy. There is zero indication that he isn't competitive. 
    • I like the free agency. It actually helps basically all schools across the board. Pretty much only ancient HC's and/or HC's that haven't been able to adjust have been complaining about the free agency. Your fortunes can be made or broken every offseason. It's not like before where a bad recruiting class or two meant multiyear purgatory.  I will never understand all the bellyaching about the NIL. If you want to talk about what ruined college athletics, it has been naked greed. Conference expansions for TV revenue, ever skyrocketing AD and facilities costs and now the attempts to permanently ruin the postseasons(football and basketball).  All the kids did was get a very well deserved piece of a very, very, VERY broken pie.
    • Nobody is saying they don't count against the cap, because yes, they technically do count against the cap as it's money the team is paying and it needs to be accounted for. But what you're not grasping it seems is that if a player gets $10 million guaranteed in their contract, whether they get literally $0 as a signing bonus or $8 million as a signing bonus, it doesn't change the overall cap hit of the contract, because cap hits are about the guaranteed money, not how much is paid up front. The only thing that how much is paid up front changes, is how the cap hit can be spread out amongst the years. So yes, technically there could end up being a slightly bigger cap hit in year 3 and 4 due to a bigger signing bonus, but if that is the case, it also means there will be a lesser cap hit in years 1 and 2 than there would have been with a smaller bonus.  But over the length of the contract, the size of the signing bonus has literally zero affect on the overall cap hit of the contract, because THAT part of it is 100% about the guaranteed money and nothing else.
