Recommended Posts

Lets see, so far.....

-Big space eating gap stuffing defensive lineman: Kemoaoteu, check.

-Other DT that's an athlete, fly to the ball guy,disruptive pass rusher: Corey Irvin? Definetly experienced in the best football college conference. hmmm...

-Ends that are super athletic, speedy off the ends: Everette Brown, check.

Peppers if he stays, check. If Peppers goes, Charles Johnson? Showed promise though lacked playing time. hmmm....

-Speedy assasin linebackers that are the heart and soul of the cover two: Beason, double check. Thomas Davis, definetly. Nail Diggs? hmmm... The guy from Penn State that may replace him? well....

-Physical corners: Gamble, check. Richard Marshall? hmmm....the Troy State rookie? Maybe, he showed promise in college

-Fly to the ball,excellent in space hard hitting safeties: Chris Harris, double check. Godfrey? maybe......

How many more players do we need?

It's Corvey. I don't know, we didn't have him high on our board, for that matter not a lot of people did at all, but lets see what the kid can do. Kemoeatu stays where he is because he helps keep Beason free, but I still think they bring another guy in through free agency. It's going to have to be a real inexpensive option.

The age where largish bull-rushing 4-3 DEs dominated the landscape is over, and more and more smaller pass-rushers with speed on their side are coming out of college. Everette Brown, who I think should bulk up to no more than 265, if he should at all, has adequate size as it is at 255. Driving the Tackle back isn't his game, it's making these big guys tired trying to contain him on the edge.

-Speedy assasin linebackers that are the heart and soul of the cover two: Beason, double check. Thomas Davis, definetly. Nail Diggs? hmmm... The guy from Penn State that may replace him? well....

Dan Connor is not a SLB. Which is sad, because it sucks to see him stagnate here, it's almost like how Bobby Carpenter is just fermenting in Dallas. They're sticking with Diggs, which is fine for now. Beason has enough range to compensate and Davis has come into his own at WLB.

-Physical corners: Gamble, check. Richard Marshall? hmmm....the Troy State rookie? Maybe, he showed promise in college

I always thought Gamble as more of an athletic corner. The cover 2 isn't so much about being physical because it is a zone defense. It's more about being aggressive, and we will need to be aggressive in order to make it work.

-Fly to the ball,excellent in space hard hitting safeties: Chris Harris, double check. Godfrey? maybe......

At least Godfrey's now got a year under his belt. Safety almost seemed kind of like a stranger to him last year, even though he did pretty well, now he has to really come into his own.

How many more players do we need?

if the FO resigns lucas for a vet min, that would be one of the best off-season moves yet. i would still argue marshall should start- stick lucas at the nickel and the rook can come in on the dime and learn under the vets.

    • The same folks crying about the OL right now were crying about it in 2023 too. We have tied up over 100 million dollars in two interior olinemen alone and we have Taylor Moton inked to a recent extension. We've invested multiple first and second round picks in the offense. We hired an offensive minded head coach. This is an offensive team. The offense needs to produce or people need to be replaced.
    • This is the same place that has ridiculed and blasted Caleb Williams at every opportunity he has his team sitting at 10-4 in the same NFC that the Panthers are competing in. And their division in the NFC North is as or more competitive as our division. Yet from the same people who have very high standards for Williams we get every excuse imaginable for the smallest starting QB in the league even when he and his team continue to disappoint when the pressure is on. You lot aren't any less inconsistent than anyone else.
    • The Panthers are 9th in cap spent on offense this year.  However next season is already a different story  The Panthers as it stands right now will be 18th in cap spent on offense and 8th in cap spent on defense  The Panthers are currently set to spend more on defense next year than they are on offense this season Guys like Jaycee and Moehrig cap numbers take a big jump. Wharton has a massive cap hit   Jaycee Moehrig and Wharton in 2025 The same 3 in 2026 So this same defense as it stands right now will cost more in 2026 than this offense does right now… Got anything else you want to try?
