So who is starting on D next year who is currently on the team?

DE: Charles Johnson

NT: Ron Edwards

UT:

DE: Greg Hardy

SLB: James Anderson

MLB: Jon Beason

WLB:

CB: Chris Gamble

SS: Charles Godfrey

FS:

CB:

That is my vote for returning starters. We will draft a starter on D in the top 10 this year. That leaves three starters we need to find along with depth.

Everything else is up for grabs.

C: Ryan Kalil - Zack Williams

RG: Geoff Hangartner - Geoff Schwartz

RT: (FA/DP) - Byron Bell

TE: Greg Olsen - Jeremy Shockey - Gary Barnidge - Ben Hartsock

WR2: Brandon LaFell - Legadu Naanee

QB: Cam Newton - (FA/Anderson)

FB: Richie Brockel

RB: DeAngelo Williams - Jonathan Stewart - Josh Vaughan

DEFENSE:

LE: Greg Hardy- Thomas Keiser

DLT: Terrell McClain - Andre Neblett

DRT: Ron Edwards - (FA/DP) - Sione Fua

RE: Charles Johnson - Antwan Applewhite

SLB: James Anderson - Thomas Williams

MLB: Jon Beason - Omar Gaither

WLB: (FA/DP/Davis) - Jordan Senn - Jason Williams

LCB: Chris Gamble - Darius Butler - Brandon Hogan

RCB: (FA/DP) - Captain Munnerlyn

SS: Charles Godfrey - (FA/DP)

FS: (FA/DP) - (FA/DP/Nelson)

SPECIAL TEAMS:

yeah we're basically looking at having to upgrade 4-6 starting spots on defense with no cap space and only 2 early draft picks

given that you'll probably see hardy keep his starting spot. also I wouldn't be surprised to see the panthers FO just crossing their fingers hoping edwards and davis can both return from injury and more or less just leave those positions as is.

there's only so much you can do in one offseason given the situation. we're not in a position to make a run at any decent FAs and it's highly unlikely some 4th-7th round rookie is going to come in and play at a starting level right away

hopefully we hit big on our first two picks, guys come back healthy and we can at least make some positive moves (restructures/cuts) to get our cap space in order for the future.

theres always moves you can make to improve the team i'm just not going to expect some major overhaul of the roster or a huge influx of talent

I honestly don't think the secondary is the big problem. Martin has looked bad and we don't have a particularly strong CB corps but the true problem is we get gashed in the run and the line isn't getting to the QB. I still think the DT position has been a huge problem and the injuries at LB made it glaringly obvious.

Hardy hasn't earnt a starting position?

Adjusted post game stats from ProFootballFocus excluding week 17:

Charles Johnson

10 Sacks

6 Hits

32 Pressures

1 Batted Pass

26 Tackles

26 Defensive Stops

Greg Hardy

4 Sacks

8 Hits

33 Pressures

8 Batted Passes

37 Tackles

29 Defensive Stops

Hardy needs to improve his run play, but I really am confused at why you move Johnson to RE when he was unreal against the run last year.

Comparing the two as pass rushers simply shows that they are just as effective as each other...

Based off of talent, these are the only players who should have a starting spot.

DE - Johnson

SLB - Anderson

MLB - Beason

CB - Gamble

S - Godfrey

I like Hardy, but he's absolutely horrible in sealing the edge and has no discipline when it comes to defending his gap and responsibility. Which means he's a third down pass rushing specialist.

Now based on probability and so forth

You'll see Johnson, Hardy, Edwards, Anderson, Beason, Gamble, Hogan and Godfrey starting.

    • Have you seen the mock drafts lately?   Most of them have us taking a QB. Just because you aren't high on these QBs doesn't mean the Panthers or other teams aren't.   If you want me to be real I just think you a Tmac homer and all you care about is us drafting him. It's why you get so defensive when people mention other prospects.   Be open to other people's ideas. Nobody in this thread is saying anything bad about your boy Tmac. 
    • Oh good lord Interest doesn't mean interest in making a bad trade to take the player, that's why I had such a long post, to accurately describe why those are two different things, but you don't like to listen to that stuff.  Being interested in a player doesn't live in a vacuum. It's very simple... there isn't a #1 draft pick type of grade on any of these QB's, if there was, we'd just take them.  You can't bluff a pick everyone knows you won't make, and trying to trade the pick is the CLEAR signal that you're not taking the QB. Just because the Raiders would have interest, doesn't mean they're going to bail us out of a situation we don't want to be in, they'd be smart about it and just sit put, let us take a non QB as we'd be telling the world we're not taking one just by trying to trade the pick, and then they'd take him at #2 (either with their own pick or by trading less to get that one). Oh, and your point of "if nobody is willing to make the trade, you obviously just take the best QB" is quite literally the dumbest thing I've ever read on here. If nobody is willing to trade up to take the QB, then it's OBVIOUS that the QB isn't worth taking with that pick, so OBVIOUSLY taking the best QB there is just OBVIOUSLY stupid and a bad pick. The moral of it is if there is a QB worth taking, we're taking them and not making the trade.  If there isn't a QB worth taking there, nobody is trading up to #1 to take one, we just showed the NFL how bad of an idea that is 2 years ago, it's really not hard to see. You keep making up this mythical situation where there is a QB who has shown to be worth trading up to #1 for and we'll be able to leverage that into a trade.  But we're the most QB needy team in the league, if we end up with the #1 pick, either we are taking a QB #1 or no QB is going #1 unless we get VERY lucky and two teams in the Top 5 fall in love with one prospect and we can play them off each other and fleece one of them. But again, I can't see that happening, as if there was a QB worthy of that, we're just taking him ourselves.
    • Sanders is with Tom Brady brand and that's his mentor. The Raiders owner was with Sanders taking pics at a Vegas game together.   It doesn't take much to connect the dots that Vegas will be interested in Sanders as their franchise QB. Oh yeah and guess who hasa small ownership stake in the Raiders Tom Brady.   I guess this is just another made up Madden idea by me huh?
