Corners that are left. Who will it be?

So here we go, the CB position is probably the one position that needs to be addressed. I'm starting to think we'd be fine at the WR spot, even if we don't sign anyone. But the CB position, not so much. Here's what's left from what I can tell.

1.Chris Carr, CB, Ravens. Age: 28.

He's a decent CB, he'd probably beat out Gamble for the #1 spot. He's not that old either, still would have at least 5 years left. He'd line up next to Gamble instantly. No doubt. This is the FA that I would want.

2. Nate Clements, CB, 49ers. Age: 31.

I'm not convinced with this guy, but at this point he's looking like an OK CB, next to Gamble he would be better than Marshall to be honest. If he comes cheap, I say sure.

3. Antonio Cromartie, CB, Jets. Age: 27.

Ah yes, Cromartie and his family. Um, next to gamble, we'd have a very decent backfield. This is another guy that I wouldn't mind paying a little more for because he's worth that little extra cash. Again, he's still young, has at least 5 years left so he'd be finishing his career with us. That's a good thing, means we can look for a replacement while him and gamble are on their way out.

4. Carlos Rogers, CB, Redskins. Age: 30,

If he can stay healthy. Yes, do want. Even if he's older. Getting him cheap might be a possibility, I can see him pairing with Gamble nicely.

5.Chris Houston, CB, Lions. Age: 26.

Some of you don't want this guy. He remind me a lot of Marshall, but he'd probably beat out marshall to be honest. I beleive he's slightly better than marshall, he's still young and can be coached still. He's definitely a #2 CB, which is what we need. If all the other CB's are signed, and it came down to marshall and him. I'd take houston.

6. ????? Don't know who else is left that can be acquired? Via trade? A. Samuel? If the trade doesn't leave a gaping hole in the panthers backside I say yes.

There's still some options at CB, I hope something gets done soon about this. Even if we don't pick up any more positions of need to secure a CB, I'm all for that.

      Drafting X is like the poster board for mistakes. Hopefully, lesson learned.

      How about just don't draft project players in the first round? How about especially when you have arguably the worst roster in the NFL(we did all those years in question)? You don't even have to dig into those player debates specifically. Just don't grasp at straws early in the draft.

      Week 6 PFF grades vs. DAL

      By AU-panther · Posted

      I think there were 9, and since I haven't took time to watch each of them on each play individually Its impossible for me to say, which I doubt you have either.   It's not a stat driven grading system; it's a per play grading system.  Tommy Tremble making a great block to spring Rico for that 10-yard run might actually score higher on that play then Ricos run. The actual run might not be anything special; it might be a run that pretty much every back in the league would have made. Here again, I would guess, if you look at every RB in the league, he is towards the top in rushing grade for the year which is what most of us are seeing.  Whether you call that a 90/80/70, 50/40/30, A/B/C, Gold/Green/Red star, it doesn't really matter it's how he ranks relative to everybody else at his position.

      The Bryce Young "Game Winning Drive" narrative needs to end

      By strato · Posted

      Well I will never knock a strong arm, in a vacuum, but it is a lot more than that to it.  Did we kill our roster building and our defense in particular to stick PJ out there?  No. We knew we sucked and he was really just a temporary thing too.  While with Bryce I see the up and down, mostly down, roller coaster on loop now in year three. It has been a Looooong time.    Back to strong arms, it is like having a powerful motor in a car. All the power in the world isn’t going to overcome a bad driver.   But at the same time, even a decent drive with a killer car will beat the best driver if you put him in a go kart   Exaggerating for effect, I know Bryce is not a go kart. Maybe closer to a 6 cylinder with not much displacement…..
