According to some random guy on Twitter claiming it's from some bloody at ESPN but offering no proof of that?

On Panther's Wire too. No idea, just found it and trying to share.

Who?

Most of his career has been spent with Denver.  Last year with the Falcons.  Played 16 games.  58 tackles, 32 solo, 26 assist, 9 passes defended, 2 interceptions.  6'2", but is 31 years old.  Did not show up in PFF top 32 safeties.

I just gave myself a crash course, so I thought I would share.

We clearly need to add a veteran stopgap at safety one way or the other.

Bingo I like Ransom a lot but I’d rather not go into the season with a rookie being the last line of defense. Found this online and now I might be ok with the rook being the last line lol.

As for Justin Simmons: • 59.9 PFF grade • 53.8 run defense grade, 60.8 coverage grade • 19.8% missed tackle rate He’s more so just a name at this stage. The tackling issues really scare me.

Yeah, I think counting on a rookie 4th rounder to start would be a big mistake. Bring in a vet stopgap and if the rookie is ahead of schedule, great. But don't force it.

I'd rather hear this rumor than some of the crazy ones I've seen over the past month or so. 

I like the idea of Simmons just because he has history with Evero.  Less of a learning curve.

AND we could use another veteran safety. 

But wasn’t that the same thing with Fuller? And he was terrible. I feel like we have brought in a lot of guys because of Evero’s familiarity with them and it hasn’t helped at all. Idk why Evero gets such a pass. The Saints scored on every.single.drive week 1 when we were still healthy and had Brown. The Broncos defense got better after he left. When will he stop getting a pass for “not having players” and start getting hammered for not developing players or getting the best out of the players he has?

      PFF Best Deep Ball Thrower Award

      By Navy_football · Posted

      This is what I mean. I am not some huge BY fan. I honestly don't look at QBs the way a lot of you guys do. Right or wrong, I've always looked at them as just another cog in the machine. Didn't want BY or even a trade up for a QB in 2023. We saw in the Super Bowl how important the rest of the team is on any given Sunday. Now... so PFF, who has no reason to prop up BY, says he's first in 2 stat lines and Panthers "fans" are arguing why it's either wrong or a made up stat just to make BY look good. Even though they have multiple stat lines where he's literally last in. Like 32nd in the NFL. Some he's even lower than 32. Take a step back. Try to objectively self analyze. This is just not sensible.  Same thing I see with other teams' fans and their QBs though. We analyze every single throw on every single play. For every other QB, most here are only using highlights to judge. Makes a difference. We saw Stafford miss throws when they played Carolina - both games. We saw Love throw crap up when they played Carolina. We saw Dak miss throws when they played Carolina - and Pickens was putting on a SHOW. We saw Josh Allen win a game with 163 yards passing against Carolina, but if BY does it he's crap and can't pass for 200 yards. Gents... come on.

      None of us think we're contenders this season but no reason we're doomed to 5 or 6 wins either. Dan has to have another 2025- like draft class and at least 2 key free agent signings. We're not Seattle but they don't win without 5 starters from their last 2 draft classes and Darnold and Lawrence in free agency.  Alas,  we'll have to wait one more season for a QB upgrade.

      I've got nothing else to say really than: Ayup. Here we are again. Again.  All we can really hope for is progress. If we improve as much again, it'll be good. If we don't, it'll be foretold.
