Panthers interested in Safety Steve Gregory


Recommended Posts

man rivera sure is dumb, i wish hurney would fire him and his pooty personnel decisions and let a committee of huddle posters make the calls instead

or maybe we can just put together a good pro scouting department so we can add quality players from teams other than panthers/chargers but yeah i dont know

You would think that, if it was the case of just knowing the players, then we would be bringing in guys from the Browns, Jacksonville, Tennessee, the Ravens, etc., because we have coaches spanning all of those teams.

I don't understand why the focus has been entirely the Chargers, though. It's strange.

Seemls to me if they are good it doesn't matter where they are from. We picked up guys from other places besides the chargers. Sometimes the complaints around here are ridiculous.

"Good" is an incredibly subjective term. What do you consider good? My definition of a "good" player is a guy who is close to make the Pro Bowl every year, if not making it in. I'm not sure that Steven Gregory fits that bill.

So since there are maybe three players from each conference that go to the probowl at each position, then there are only maybe 6 or 7 players at any one position who are good.

Neither would DWill, JStew, Greg Olsen, James Anderson, Chris Gamble, or Charles Johnson.

Do you even know what you're talking about anymore?

Yes. I am talking about the Panther's potential signing of Gregory.

I am saying that if this happens, the justification for it is Rivera's personal knowledge of the player himself and the players ability.

You are saying that it would be a bad move if we sign him no matter what.

Ergo, you are saying that you know more about the player and his abilities than Rivera does.

In other words, I find you logic on this particular matter quite suspect.

we need role players.

on top of our core guys we need role players who can step in and contribute when they're called to do so. rivera understands this. that's how he took a terrible defense in san diego and rebuilt it around one or two stars. everyone else had a role to play and came in and played it.

if you idiots screaming for household names at every position want that kind of management there's a team four hundred miles north of charlotte that fits the bill perfectly. feel free to go jump on their bandwagon, you'll fit right in.

lol this is why you have a pro-scouting department

sometimes it's as if we don't even have one. hurney looks almost exclusively at signing only players from the panthers. rivera only wants to go after charger players. what the hell does our pro scouting department do? f**k if i know

we spent more $$$ in FA than any other team last year and our biggest outside acquisition? olindo mare. i wonder how these people still have jobs sometimes

oy vey...

    • I agree with this and I think it's worth mentioning too that Bryce is not consistent on his placement and especially velocity and that in large part is driven by his footwork. We all know XL doesn't have the best hands and I don't know that he can overcome that. Cam always had the heater that just hit your hands and sank into your grip, where Bryce has some that are harder thrown, some soft. Bryce stepping into a pass looks so much different than that hop throw thing he does. I think XL really needs to hit the jugs machine and start learning how to catch all these different touch passes. TMac and Coker don't have these issues. If XL doesn't get some work in he's going to be out of the league in the next couple of years. 
    • I think most people like XL from a personal standpoint. I don't think he's stupid either. Although if we are being realistic he is lacking in football IQ at this point in time and it cannot be disputed that he has not taken working on his craft seriously at all times given the body of work on the field. It speaks for itself. I myself have defended him at times given the circumstances of our QB room. But he is now in his third year and 25 years old. We are not in a position as a franchise to go around babying anyone especially first round draft picks. He needs to take his position and his football career seriously or he is going to end up selling used cars somewhere. I hope he realizes this and takes an extended break from social media because that mess certainly isn't going to increase his net worth if he ends up out of the league. And these hanger on types will disappear quick too once that money dries up and it surely will eventually. We'll see how he responds.
