Carolina Panthers sign Quintin Mikell


Salvo

Recommended Posts

The strength of Mikell is playing in the box. He can stuff the running back behind the line of scrimmage and is effective at blitzing the QB's.

Last year he had 3 sacks and 84 tackles. 39 of which were considered a " stop" by PFF.

Only Eric Weddle and Rhonde Barber had more.

Stop definition per PFF = the cumulative solo tackles which constitue an offensive failure.

I did read the thread. Sounded like a lot of guessing to me. So no team in the entire nfl was willing to pay this all world safety so he sit home since march. Right.

I mean, yeah pretty much. There's also the fact that he's a vet and likely wanted to avoid training camp. He was also probably trying to hold out for multi year deal. There's lots of possible reasons why he didn't sign till now but none of them are ability related.

Plus he his a vet who probably didn't want to endure training camp and knew a job somewhere would be there for him after TC ended. He was right

Cool.  Thanks for answering. Sounds like we definitely got an upgrade.

If you knew anything about the NFL you would know that a lot of vets that are cut in the offseason don't sign til after training camp or even after the season because they are holding out to see who will give them the best offer after all the teams evaluate their younger players and their offseason development.

    • I really appreciate Bill explaining his methodology here because that gives interested parties a chance to try and recreate the results themselves. I believe that it's safe to assume that despite emphasis being placed on WRs that Chuba Hubbard is one of the Panthers' top-5 weapons. Considering targets, yardage, receptions, etc... Adam Thielen and Xavier Legette are also on the list. Jalen Coker's success might have snuck him in there as well. I can't draw a conclusion on who #5 is though. I've narrowed it down to Diontae Johnson, David Moore, Ja'Tavion Sanders, and possibly Rico Dowdle if they're taking into account his production for the Cowboys in 2024.
    • Unfortunately business is business especially when there are large sums of money on the table. Goes the same for player and ownership. Does not make it right either way.  Why would he not want to play for the niners? Closer to home with a team that has a chance of delivering a SB trophy. 
    • I don’t know if it’s him bad mouthing his former situation in public or my pettiness but either way I’m not a fan. Dude was on playoff teams getting paid millions to entertain. I’m not better that because and I am better than that. You don’t bad mouth your former employer in public. Esp after getting over paid and two, poor little Russian baby didn’t get the playing spot he wanted. Rod had him exactly where is was supposed to be.  He had a mean lip check and did defend our players. Specifically the devils game around Christmas where is our Haula on his ass. Cool. Thank you. But don’t talk poo about us. Because it make you look like Haula.    “need to get as far away as possible”. fug off. Didn’t see Burnsy bad mouthing and his play dropped off too.    sorry, but Orlov doesn’t get a pass from me. See you twice a year…
