Pro Football Talk: Gamble to get cut?

"6. Chris Gamble, Panthers CB: The new rules should help Gamble because the Panthers are thin at cornerback. Still, he has to show something in camp to be worth $6.24 million in 2011."

I doubt he gets cut this year, but CG does not fit the description of the Jim Johnson 4-3 CB. Gamble will be cut by next season, if not sooner, IMO.

Here is what they say about offensive players, if you are interested: http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2011/07/21/24-offensive-players-that-could-get-cut/

One reason Marshall was so picked on was because Gamble was avoided. However, he will make a bunch of $$ next year and the JJ 4-3 CB is a tackler as a general stereotype. PFT is terrible, but Florio knows if he stirs the hornet's nest it increases the traffic on his site. However, you cannot think that Gamble is earning his salary, regardless of whether he is the best we have. We drafted an injured CB who could spend the year on IR and be in jail by 2012. Gamble will not be going anywhere, but his days are numbered.

His days may be numbered, but no this year. I cant argue that he makes too much, but i dont see him leaving for atleast a couple of years. Now if fox had stayed maybe not, cause of whatever happened last year. Over all i think gamble is deff better than just serviceable. he handles himself fine on the field.

Everytime you post a Florio article you are getting him "hits" which his bosses then look at and then justify that news doesnt have to be true, it can just be slung around like feces. They then pat Florio on the back.

So, I am going to assume that you love Florio and you think all of this is credible. . . This makes you equivalent to the unknown green substance on the underside of my balls. Gratz

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
