Top 10 Players We Can't Afford To Lose To Injury Next Year.

Cam. We all know why

Kalil. Crucial to cam's development, and one of the best in the NFL.

CJ. He silently carries the D line, and think about all that $.

Gamble. Snubbed out of the pro bowl last year, shutdown corner in a pass happy league.

Beaston. Saw the effect of that last season. No thank you.

Theirs my five. "Chud" would be the worst non player.

Rank the top 10 players we can not afford to lose to injury next year if we want to have the best record possible.My list is based off a combination of what each player brings to the table and the depth behind them.

1. Cam Newton

2. Jordan Gross

3. Chris Gamble

4. Steve Smith

5. Charles Johnson

6. Ryan Kalil

7. Jon Beason

8. Greg Olsen

9. Brandon Lafell

10. Luke Keuchly

Some quick notes on my justification for this list

Outside of the top 6 that list got real tough for me.

-We have no one I am confident in at this point in manning the LT spot if Gross goes down,

-Gamble is a shut down corner who allows versatility in our entire defensive playcalling,

-Smith is Cam's favorite weapon.

-Charles Johnson does a great job at applying pressure and containing the run game on his side.

-Kalil is not only a top 5 center but he also has nobody behind him that I have much faith in.

-Beason is stil the leader of Our D,but I have confidence in Kuechly being able to slide over if need be

-Olsen, was Cam's second favorite target and may see even more snaps if Shockey does not return. Plus tight end position is a vital part of our offensive philisophy

-Lafell's value on this list is inflated some due to that fact that we do not know for sure what we have behind him at the # receiver spot.

-Kuechly makes the list because not matter where he lines up he will be an integral part of our D next year.

-I love our running backs but we are deep there so I left them off this list.

-Hardy is good but having, Keiser, Applewhite and Alexander on the roster will help ease the pain if he goes down

Let me here your top 10 and why.

Why would you decide to post a hit list for the Saints**? Let them put together their own target list.

    • As far as elite/elevate talent QB’s It’s Allen Mahomes Jackson and Burrow that’s it.  Then we have tiers and those can be debated all day Dak is a good QB but I know this board would want him out of Charlotte if he was the QB here. 2 playoff wins in 10 years. Justin Herbert no playoff wins. Threw 4 interceptions in last years playoff game. 23 TD passes last year. 20 the year below and 25 the year before that. This board loves stats without context and these stats aren’t saying they’re much above complimentary  Kyler Murray isn’t good. I’m not sure how he made this list.  Caleb Williams, Trevor Lawrence both benefiting from some real good offensive coaches right now. They’re both complimentary pieces until proven otherwise  I like Jordan Love. Always have. I wanted to draft him but he isn’t a superstar.  CJ Stroud hasn’t been much better than Bryce after his rookie season. After that Bears game year 2 his numbers very similar to Bryce I will say I think Drake Maye is well on his way to becoming the next top tier QB if I had to pick one from this entire list. I’d also say Baker Mayfield is a damn good QB and I’d take him over most of those guys not in the elite category  Now if you want to debate tools and which QB’s possess tools to put them in higher tiers that’s a completely different discussion. Most QB’s on your main list all have those physical tools that will keep you thinking he’ll become the next top tier QB. They’ll sprinkle in a “wow” play or two a game. Bryce will never look that way. Young’s game at its peak will physically always look different and I think that’s where most people struggle when it comes to seeing how Young’s can be successful in the league  All QB’s need a team around them. I think the Bills are failing Josh Allen much like the Panthers did Cam. Beane and McDermott using same blueprint with Bills team. Josh Allen hasn’t had much in terms of WR’s and it’s ultimately costing them when it matters the most
