Captain gets unfairly criticized because of the middling conversion % against him, but that overlooks the many snaps in which he covers his guy well enough the quarterback doesn't target him. The first rule of playing corner is to make the QB hold the ball; if you're constantly being targeted you're not doing your job.

Not a fan of cap but if he has better quality around him, one, he doesn't play outside corner and two, his diffiencies aren't so much on show bcos of the talent around him. He's a good depth player elsewhere it's not really his fault panthers have little talent to support him.

because i'm lazy, copy and paste from another thread about capt.

 

 

 

i'm predicting a deal will be done....3 years, $2.5-3mil/year with $2mil signing bonus

 

same type deal will be done for mitchell as well.

 

both guys produced big for us last year and provided a lot of fire on the field. i think it's a respectable offer, esp. considering the market will be just as or more crowded as last year.

I'd definitely take that. 

 

 

We need a corner better than Munnerlyn, but that doesn't mean he's bad, and it doesn't mean we don't do what we can to keep him.  A guy like Munnerlyn, and an upgrade across from him, makes this a better defense.

don't try to replace him. try to build around him. 

 

if you want to upgrade cb....look at the weakest links and go from there. that ain't captain.

I'm surprised no one is talking about the Panther's having not contacted a single free agent player or agent.

"It's been real quiet, which is shocking. I don't know what's going on. I'm just waiting. I guess they're going to let everyone hit free agency," Munnerlyn told The Charlotte Observer's Joseph Person on Friday. "I don't think they've talked to anybody, yet -- not even Greg Hardy. That's a shocker to me. I guess they're going to see what the market value of people is and go from there."

This is going to be an interesting off season now that D. Gettleman has had an entire year to evaluate the team's talent.

 

Does a lack of activity to retain our free agents up to this point indicate Gettleman has determined that there are numerous opportunities to improve the level of talent on this team?

I think it shows that DG is going to be as cheap as possible in filling out the team and relying on rookies and low tier FA pick ups. If anyone wants more then 1-2, maybe 3 million a season, they likely won't be back.

You could be right.  On the other hand, the Panther's stock as a desirable destination for free agents is probably at an all time high.  That affords DG the opportunity to play hardball, where as Marty Hurney needed to constantly throw money at players in hopes that they would stay with an underachieving organization.

This is interesting. Gettleman played hard ball with Dwan Edwards and Munnerlyn last offseason and won. He might try to do the same again this year w/our free agents.

He will be. I am trying to rationalize it.  Here is what I think:

 

Gettlemen might know the personnel around the league better than anyone--the guy seems very aware.  He also has a good eye for talent.  While he may like Munnerlyn, he knows that he is nothing special in the grand scheme of things.  Gettlemen is like a Mafia overlord--its just business.  Emotion has nothing to do with it.  I LOVE his attitude.  Compare that to Hurney who thought he was Santa rewarding the Core of a 2-14 team.  Remember when he had to cut Jake (after making him very rich)?  He flew to Chicago to cry on his agent's shoulder.  I knew he was done when I read that.

Gettlemen did some pretty awesome bottom fishing last year.  He really has no chioice.  I seriously think Gettlemen is going to reward the core with decent contracts, but players who had a good year are not going to be given a Brink's truck.

      Disturbing

      I can say that I have defended Canales because I get that they are doing all they can to keep from looking like idiots for drafting Bryce, from the trade up to signing $150m guards to drafting XL and Brooks etc---nothing seems to work.  And Hiring Canales was part of the Bryce Young rehab program, so so he can't really decide to "move on."  That has to come from Morgan and Tepper. Personally, I think Bryce is due for an injury.  He is small, he is not thick, and he has been a LOT more healthy than most any other QB has who has endured so much pressure.  The thing that bothers me is this---Bryce really does not go through his progressions quickly.  He locks on to his presnap read and stays locked onto him for too long--he seems to fail to anticipate the WR/TE's positioning on the play before the cut--for example, if the WR is running a dig and the CB has his back to the inside of the field, he should be open for a second or less just after the cut.  He seems to wait until the cut has been made before deciding, then checking down quickly while moving in the pocket. OL:  There seems to be a lack of communication--is that on Mays?  Watch this team presnap--they seem a bit confused at times.   I can almost predict the success rate of the play by watching the center and QB before the snap.

      Eric Collins Calling First NFL Game (ours)

      Anyone else remember back in 2010 when Fox piloted having music under the in-game replays during one of Carolina's games? Not the commercial bumpers but the actual replay clips that the announcers would talk over. Pretty sure it was vs the 49ers. And it was terrible. Point being, Carolina continues being so bad that we get the networks trying things out during their games.

      Is it bad I found this video more hilarious than pathetic? I am still laughing at that one play where half the people on the field ran into each other and Bryce still couldn't see Chuba wide open... Also laughing at Cade blocking nobody and somehow losing his cleat Man this offense is a poo show
