Hunter was never looked at as a replacement for AT by anybody by fans.

No, but I do think he would have been used in a similar role of a zone buster slot that can run quick routes or option routes. That NFL experience of knowing man vs zone coverage and knowing where to sit against Cover 2 vs. 3 vs. 4 vs. 6/9

Don't think he was starting over Coker, but he would have definitely been next in line at slot had we of traded AT away.

I'm not saying I didn't want him on the team. 

 

That's a damn crowded room.

Hopefully we can find some better upgrades on waivers to replace DJ, Evans, Crumedy, and backup ILB

I think Evans sticks around as a developmental piece. He strikes me as another Tremble type...never gonna light the world on fire as a pass catcher, but will run over anyone that gets in his way as a blocker.

Both the Mitchell’s made it at TE.  Interesting.

 

also, we should sign Isaiah Simmons.  I thought I read we were interested at some point?

With how weak we are at LB and bad at ST it makes perfect sense. He's a gunner on ST and can flex all over from SS to ILB situationally. It's not like we'd need to let go of a true ILB to make it happen (unless we are looking at someone's cut or a trade).

Yeah, for all of his “lacking a natural position,” he still would probably be the best ILB on our roster, and one of the better safeties.

As long as he is a serious contributor on ST yeah it makes sense to have a guy who can be a third stringer at a few other positions. I don't know anything bout the Packers roster or why he was let go, but we are in a pretty different situation than them

Yeah, I can’t say I’ve kept up with him closely the last couple years, but I am kind of surprised because I thought he had turned a corner a couple years ago with AZ.

      Bryce Young is the worst QB in Panthers History

      Yuck.  I still kind of like Herbert but these playoff performances are rough....

      Evero and the pass rush

      I feel like this was the case with River and McDermott defenses as well, we just had the jimmies and the joes to overcome these deficiencies with all pro players at edge and linebacker positions.  Even then, was extremely frustrated in 2015 when we'd let team come back from 20+ pt deficits playing prevent only to barely win at the end.

      We need to move on soon and just use Bryce as a bridge to find our next guy. I'd like to see how this offense works with Canales hand picking his own guy. Bryce holds this offense back a lot considering you draft the first pick to carry your team and be your best player. We invested heavily for Bryce and need everything to go right just to have him look like a solid game manager sometimes. When he plays well he can look decent or mid, but when he plays bad he looks like a bottom 5 qb in league (backups included). It's not worth it, especially if we need to pay him soon, which means we have to skimp all over the roster. If the defenses don't hand it to us on a silver platter Atlanta style then we struggle big time. Defenses don't respect the offense at all. With Cam we could have the worst offensive talent and I'd still think we had a shot in any game we played. If Bryce is facing a 3rd and 10 I pretty much wave the white flag and don't think we can make that first down.
