Got another prospect for you guys. I really like this kid and even though our scrub DBs have been playing well, I think we could use a solid safety in the second round if we don't land one in free agency.

Phillip Thomas is a senior from Fresno state. He had a freak accident about a year ago and he really fugged up his whole leg/foot. He has recovered nicely though, and has returned to his same ole hard hitting, ball hawk ways.

After watching the tape, Thomas is exactly the kind of guy I want in my last line of defense. He is as sure of a tackler as I've ever seen. Doesn't play dirty, but knows how to lay the wood. Has a natural nose for finding the ball, always being aggressive and fighting for the ball in the air. Tremendous ball skills.

There really isn't a whole lot of tape on this guy but I dug up what I could from youtube.

Here's an interview. Interviews are huge when looking at prospects. You can tell he's a great guy and loves the game.

This hit was absolutely legal. See how great his instinct and technique?

      Dave Canales for Coach of the Year - NY Times

      By Basbear · Posted

      Yea, its a awful year for COY there's like 5 coaches Id as a  non-panther fan say are more worthy than Dave. Ben Johnson is doing similar to Dave by taking a yearly loser into a winner, but da bears are what 9-10 wins right now. Liam Coen has the fuging jags at 9-4 with similar talent as Panthers, I mean they drafted before them this pass year and had nearly zero from a guy they traded up for @#2 hunter.  ugh....Sean Payton&vance has the broncos as the current #1 seed in the AFC..... you know the broncos before the year starts you have the chiefs with mahomes&reid and chargers with herbo&harbs. No one had broncos winning there nor as a the #1 overall seed.  Mike Macdonald has the Seahawks at 10-3 compare that to Panthers 7-6, they are in a blood bath against Rams and 49ers.....shanny has half the team on IR with a 9-4 record.  Chargers are 9-4 with no OL or RB and not much on D.  I have even put colts above Dave and the Panthers, if not for Danny injury...they were on the way and playing great. Just soooooooooooo many HC deserving this year and still more games, but Dave has over played this year for sure. I had them at a firm 2 win team, with 4 being the maybe and 7?!?!?!? being the everything goes right. 7 wins is possible given the shitty NFC south.

      He did everything right but catch the ball. Kept his hands out in front, palms away from his body, watched it in, and then dropped the dam ball! Text book up until he dropped it.

      This Team...

      Just try to enjoy it for what it is. I don't need to convince myself that Young is good. He isn't. If this team makes the playoffs with the cinder block of Young dragging them down all season, even better.  But, some crucial things still need to happen, and being close, and moral victories, and at-least-they-tried isn't good enough.
