Hardys probably walking....what do we do to fill the void

We have all heard Hardys constant money song the last few weeks so I presume he is taking the highest bidder and bolting. What are our possibilities for a replacement,the guys we have left would be fine as rotational players in situational roles....but not starting. Do we draft a DE, use a mid round pick and hope we find a player? shoukd we sign a vet FA for a price and hope he has something left in the tank? Can they scheme around the loss and try to fill the void with blitz packages and hope that what we have will pick up their game (as I said,doubt these guys are starting material).Losing 15 sacks a season and numerous QB pressures will hurt,not to mention his versatility.It's the offseason so unless you want to talk NBA or NASCAR, then trying to find new subjects about the Panthers is tough. If and when he does walk this will suddenly be a relevant subject.

Not another hardy thread SMH! Look he's gone by all sounds of it so we will pickup a DE in FA if one is available if not I think they have faith in Addison Alexander and Horton with the logic of picking up one late draft, I'd like Michael Bennett but Seahawks will no doubt bring him back or Michael Johnson on a one year deal from bengals as he's a free agent, hardy is a success of a teams talented line and scheme not necessarily down all to his peformance.

      "Floor, not Ceiling" - between the hashmarks

      I don’t know about floor in a team defense sense but we needed more.  The floor that I am familiar with is our QBs floor and it is so low that every other part of the team needs to be beefed up.     We tried our best to improve these things and I think we did improve the defense and we at least kept the offense  from sinking from no LT.  And ostensibly helped the receivers too.   So we kept a window open that we at least have a chance to improve our record by a game of two.  Which would probably give us the division.

      Yeah. I am one of. those who think a JAG RB can eat with really good blocking. (Brooks is most important in my mind, in tbe passing game and that is what we’ll lose without him)  There are a lot of aspects to this. The big one that caused us to struggle is Young and his arm scared no one.  Best back, best blocking still cannot defeat a really good defense if they are not forced to respect the pass.  And teams did not.    But, a strong OL and running game Can get us over against weaker defenses.  And if Bryce still doesn’t scare anyone we can still win some games. Like last year  So it is really important to tend to that OL.   Get that straight and see if in his fourth year he can finally back defenses off. That is what if is all about this year to me, on the Bryce front.
