Quentin Jammer


Recommended Posts

you say that with such certainty, i respectfully disagree.  definitely not a long-term solution but he would be an instant starter

 

agreed. it's not difficult to believe that he'd be better than guys we have on the roster and would be an added strength. it's quite likely he'd be a starter.

Jammer's play the last several years has declined sharply. Pro Football Focus ranked him one of the worst cornerbacks in 2012; that ranking said Jammer allowed 1st downs/touchdowns in 7.13 percent of his snaps (18th worst). He allowed eight touchdowns (tied for second most) and gave up more than 6 yards per game in penalties.

PFF ranked Jammer the second-worst free agent cornerback on the market, with a -10.0 grade for 2012. It's hardly a surprise that no one has taken a shot at the veteran.

 

his play has declined over the last couple of years, plus he gets to many flags thrown on him. he would not be an upgrade to the CBs already here.

It might just be me, but I'm not big on these "old" guys, unless it's for a one year deal and it's super cheap.

 

Not to be a debbie downer, but this Panthers team is a playoff team; not a Super Bowl team so there is no need to try to fill a position with a vet that will only be here for a year max when we can just wait (address the need in next years draft) and use the money more wisely (re-sign Hardy).

 

With that said, I would be for a Kerry Rhodes, Quetin Jammar, Charles Woodson deal if and only if it is a one year deal it's a super cheap deal.

 

Also Jammar would need to switch to safety, there is no reason to replace one of young corners (Munnerlyn, Moore, Norman, Dockery, Thomas, and even Melvin White) with an old vet who may or may not be better than one of our young corners.

 

 

How do you say this team is a playoffs team?  They went 7-9 last year, play in one of the toughest divisions, of which all of the teams have arguably made more moves to get better than we have.

Cam Netwon... Cam Newton can easily carry this team to the playoffs with a solid performance

Dominant front seven... self explanatory

One of the best back fields in the NFL... self explanatory...

New OC... we will no longer be running a gimmick offense...

Need I say more?

If they've arguably made more moves to get better, then it's also arguable that they haven't. Depends on your perspective, but as a Panther fan, I choose to come here and be optimistic about next season. If I can't be optimistic at this time of the year out of the whole year, what's the point of coming to this board?

 

Life is depressing enough. Why try to step on our happy?

Because we were about 3 or 4 bad plays away from a wildcard berth last season. We'd have been bumped out pretty much right away, but still.

 

Also, not sure why you think we're being lapped by our division. If anything, we seem to be neck and neck with everyone else.

 

  • Tampa filled in their secondary but lost their pass rush.
  • Atlanta filled in their secondary but you and I could play DE/DT for them.
  • Saints are switching defensive alignments and are coming off a season in which they set records for being horrible on defense. Grabbed a S.

 

We've already got the biggest piece in place (pass rush) and really bolstered the DLine.  Our secondary is suspect. We match up well against the current best team in the division (ATL).

 

Personally, I think we have a pretty decent shot of making the playoffs, barring something unforeseen.

Cam fumbles or Nak does not brain fart.....we beat Atlanta.

 

Smitty does not fall down after we dominated Chicago all day....we beat Chicago

 

Cam does not throw the 4yd pass into the dirt instead of to a wide open Hartsock...we beat Seattle

 

Rivera does not brain fart and play prevent against TB (while up by 11 with 3 min to go)...we beat TB

 

 

This team was easily a 10 win team last season...plain and simple.

 

If we would have won 2-3 of those fluke games, we would be considered a contender this season.

    • I think you've nailed what we need right here.  Rodriguez and Thieneman would be my choices, Thieneman in the first and Rodriguez in the second. Let everyone else eat up their picks on the crop of WRs and linemen. Then make a push in free agency for the top center.
    • Vernon Gholston vibes?  had 14 sacks at Ohio State in 2007; 45 games in the NFL:  0 sacks.  
    • I want a high impact player, but a true FS who could qb the secondary might be more effective than we realize.  I don't think Moehrig is that guy (I think he is overpaid, however).  I want a flashy, high impact player, but we could use defensive qbs at ILB  and FS.  By upgrading skill AND adding vision and leadership, could we get better than if we added an edge or OT? I am not sure that I believe this myself, but I try to look at things from all perspectives.  Here is some devil's advocacy stuff: 1. EDGE-We are freaking out about the pressure we put on the qb from the edge position.  However, Jones II and Wonnum missed a total of 22 games. Scourton was a rookie and Princely was a third rounder.  Wharton sucked (not sure if he was used properly--a hybrid who can rush from the 5 tech or 3, etc), and this put more pressure on Scourton and the other edge players.  This year, we get Jones II, Scourton should continue to evolve with Princely.  Perhaps another rookie is not what we need.  Maybe a veteran situational pass rusher.  2. OFFENSIVE TACKLE:  Of course, we need an OT, but the draft is loaded with OTs that can pass block but struggle in run blocking--so a rookie at LT might not be the answer for a team that wants to run first.  What to do?  I am not sure.  I see Nijman returning after testing the market, but who knows? 3.  INSIDE LB:  A huge need, regardless of how you spin it.  However, I see a few free agents who would be solid here, and I see the second round having a few ILBs with starting potential.  I do not see an ILB worth the first round pick unless a freak falls to us. 4.  With veteran defensive backs, a young, intelligent FS could fit in nicely. Intelligence is key--like the way Luke made the front 7 better. "A good, intelligent free safety (FS) acts as the "quarterback of the defense" transforming a unit from good to great by acting as the last line of defense, communicating pre-snap adjustments, and anticipating plays before they happen. By reading the quarterback's eyes and diagnosing offensive schemes, an intelligent FS acts as a "centerfielder" who can neutralize deep threats and mitigate errors made by cornerbacks or linebackers."
