Key piece of info I took from that was that now I understand why we brought in Flo specifically and why Capt will be staying in the slot. This defense will now have the option to play bigger corners since they will have more help. The secondary will be very physical whether theyre talented or not.

I think Rivera has done a great job helping our strengths (pass rush) on defense. I think he definitely upgraded the secondary but there are some concerns although they did seem to flourish last year despite the patchwork roster.

Overall I think the d is much better (on paper) this year than it was last year.

All that said cant wait for the Panthers version of Monsters Inc to premier.

Still thin in certain spots at depth due to the Marty clean up. Im not a hater or supporter, I simply acknowledge that he was good in some areas and awful in others. That being said, I will be holding my breath in TC this year.

 

Here's to that time of year when the Panthers are fully healthy and ready to go. Some of the worlds greatest athletes right here and thats not exaggerating.

I agree with gettleman, it seams like to many people  forget that the foundation and the trenches is where it all begins. you combine the great wall of china and a cat bull dozer (or two :D ) and your pretty much garunteed a top half of the league defense.. throw in an amazing linebacker (or 3 :D ) and your top 10.  one safety or corner  that can handle his business, and your top 3.  I think were top 3 this year. we will see.

    • Ideally Bryce and the other starters should get at least a full quarter and an argument could be made for 2 full quarters given how they've played early in the season the last few years.
    • A rookie that has never played a snap and a proven 1000K NFL WR are not going to be viewed the same in these type rankings.  And calling draft picks, lotto picks, isn't some new quip I just invented.  take the big 3 Hubbard, AT, insert whatever 3rd Panther you want vs Kamara, Hill, Olave.  Most football folks outside of Carolina are picking the Saints there IMO.    
    • You didn’t really address the point, just like you ignored the point about the RBs initially, and saying “they are all lotto picks” is just a really silly reduction because you could say that about literally any player rookie or vet every snap, every game, every year. It is well known that different positions have different hit rates, and I would argue different types of prospects within position groups as well, and that hit rates change the further down in the draft you go. Everybody knows QB is different and that, for example, first round OL have a really high success rate. Using your lotto ticket analogy…again…you are saying a lotto ticket with a 1 in 100 chance of hitting is the exact same thing as a lotto ticket with a 1 in 2 chance of hitting (this is an example, don’t take these odds literally). The point was he is no more of a lotto ticket than the 31yr old receiver coming off a major knee injury, and in my opinion he is better odds with a higher potential “jackpot”. Saying one player is an “lotto ticket” while another isn’t is just not sound logic. You have no idea who will break out, regress, get injured, etc. There are safer bets than others, that’s all. I don’t think Diggs is a safe bet and even if he was, weighing him over all of the Panthers WRs plus 2 1k rushers is just dumb. You can disagree if you want. The list is stupid.
