HC and OC are wide receiver coaches. They'll get him to his potential. But we still need a speed receiver. We have to have the biggest lumbering WR corps in the league.

If only we had a 4.39 WR…oh wait.

Let’s be honest, at #8 no defender was going get our defense ranked more than 27 out of 32 in one year. In my opinion I rather see whether Bryce has the stuff, cause I don’t think we know yet. This way we get to see entering year 3, whether he has a future here.

Fair point. The problem with our D last year was primarily our D-line and we plugged that up in FA. Our defense still isn’t top 15 at this point, but none of the players available were going to make us top 15 next year (in 2 years probably). Draft has a lot of players left.

If you think tet doesn't have concerns then you are blind. NFL Dbs are a whole other breed. Big with hands don't make you great, the guy is gonna have to develop some serious toughness to survive in the league. Defenders will get in his grill and stay there and he better learn to start liking watching film or he will be outta here in a few years. 

This guy couldn't pretend to love football for possibly a difference in millions for his first payday.

Rockhead. Absolute rockhead.

The crashouts are worth it no matter how this lands. The Walker fanboys were  as annoying as the day 2 Darnell Washington fanboys a couple years ago.

If you haven't noticed the people crashing out over the last 7 years have been right.

This. And frankly, an improved offense can do a lot for a defense. When your team has confidence their offense can score on their stops, that makes me feel at least more motivated on defense.

If you think the problem with the defense last year was the offense, then I don't know what to tell you.

Historically, historically now, one of the worst defensive units of all-time. COME ON!

A big reason why we should be hoping for XL's continued development as his 4.39 speed is going to be important to taking the tops off of defenses. 

Straight line long speed is severely overrated.  Especially by the panthers front office.

I said months ago it would be Walker, Graham, or McMillan. OK with it.

 

I do like how nobody had a clue. Walker was a smokescreen but not for the person that seem to have been leaking it would be. Double smoke screen.

"People around the leage" had no idea what they were talking about.

      Taylor Moton gets emotional talking about what happens next year

      By BrianS · Posted

      If he really wants to be here, that can happen.  It's totally up to him.  Yes, he'll have to take a hometown discount to do it.  He'll have to show that the last two seasons were outliers and he hasn't become an injury risk. It will come down to money and how much of it he wants.  If he wants to be paid at the upper end of the scale, it won't and can't happen here.  When healthy, he deserves that kind of pay and if he wants it someone else will pay it. It can totally happen.  And it's totally in his court.

      MLB Devin Lloyd for WR Jalen Coker??

      By Basbear · Posted

      He was on the "sideline" during OTA or mini camp, Im sure there was some Twitter/X post but news just moves so fast now.  He's not getting the press as TMac or even Horn, but he is making plays. That's the other deal, Im a big fan of his!  Just in order to get great value you need to give value in return. I said he would have been a 3rd rounder in 2025 draft, he just had bad luck with injuries hurting his stock and coming out in a deep WR class.

      I've always said that PFF is a tool. If you don't know how to use it, or don't want to know how to use it, then it's useless. But some people actually do know how to use it---which is why it still exists and is used by all 32 NFL teams---and part of this is putting it all within context----seeing the bigger picture. If you don't understand that not all players, develop at the same rate, have different levels of talent, have injuries that affect their play, and face different circumstances in regards to the opposition and coaching, for example, then I don't know what to tell you. Coaches set expectations based upon a variety of things, not only last year's stat sheet, which may have been brought about by dynamics that you, as a fan, may or may not understand. And even if you have some understanding of them, as a fan, you still will never have the clarity that they do---the concerns or the context that they do. As a fan, you should even be putting your lack of understanding their context, into context (and stop trying to act like you know something to be true based upon a bad season at the end of the day).
