A look at what's wrong with our Panthers

We're lacking in a few positions, and our scheme simply doesn't work well with missing pieces. What's wrong, and why did we fail to address our deficiencies in FA?

Jerry Richardson created a budget that didn't allow for bringing in new valuable FAs.

What's missing from this team? What would we have done if Jerry didn't create the tight budget?

1.) Buy a proven FA WR to replace the loss of Moose. It's foolish to draft any WR in the hopes of starting him as a #2 right away.

2.) Buy an elite pass rushing DT, similar to a young Kris Jenkins. Without a push up the middle, QBs will simply step up into the pocket to avoid any pressure from the DEs. That can't happen in zone defense if you want to win.

3.) Either pay Peppers what he wants, or bring in a proven FA pass rushing DE. The outside rush has to compliment the inside rush, creating a vice to crush the QB. No QB in the NFL would feel comfortable in that type of pocket.

4.) Replace Harris with another veteran SS who loves to absolutely destroy WRs after the catch. Fear will creep into the mind of a WR who hears a big hitters footsteps coming. In addition, the opposing RB will also think twice about getting nailed repeatedly over the course of the game.

Fill these 4 positions via FA, and you'll have a team that can rival any other team in the NFL. Each postion that is filled by an unproven rookie, a has been, a never was, will add a degree of suck to this team. We are lacking in 4 postions, and Jerry doesn't care. When the owner doesn't care, it trickles down to the coaches and the players.

      Give Legette another season?

      By BEASTfromdaEAST · Posted

      I mean this is legit AF statement....you don't spend that draft capital on a project just like you don't trade up for an injured RB either, which was done in the same draft.  That draft IMO was a necessary evil for DM to learn from his mistakes (I think he did but some may not). Also I have to mention I'm a big Coker fan and think getting him as an UDFA was obv a steal.  Coker is the better WR2 at this point as Legette and its not even debatable unfortunately.  Give him year 3 but don't expect much from him.  Continue in the offseason with adding as much talent and competition on the roster as possible including WR.  Or just trade his ass for peanuts and continue to build roster by any means.......

      Losing him was a huge loss. Look at how the Bears went from a 5 win team to now a 11 win team. The Lions offensive line is bad this year, secondary is bad and Campbell going for it on 4th down all the time has cost them games instead of taking the Field Goals. Goff is inconsistent as well.

      Nah we just talking about giving a platform and normalizing predators (who both beat women) opinions and celebrating it if it fits your narrative.  If that's fun I'm fine being a miserable fug by not supporting P.O.S like that. N b4 you call me a libtard or some other dumb ish know I'm an Anarchist/Libertarian and believe both these dudes should get a complete ass whooping (at min) or something worse for what they have done to women in this world.
