TCU CB Jason Verrett says he will work out for Carolina tomorrow.

 

 
TCU CB Jason Verrett will work out for the Panthers on Friday.
Verrett will undergo shoulder surgery to repair a torn labrum shortly after. The 5'9/189 lbs cornerback has displayed excellent skills from the slot and the outside, attacking the catch point thanks to great vision, leaping ability, aggression and closing speed. He would be a great pickup if the Panthers cannot resign Captain Munnerlyn, who thrived as a slot corner and blitzer last year.Mar 6 - 1:10 PM

I just watched his tape on chuck's mock draft thread, and I'm game.  He might be BPA at a position we've needed for years and years and years.  We may go from a great defense to a dominant, all time defense.  I've been on the offense (TE/WR) bandwagon since we drafted Star and KK, but I do like this kid a lot.  Sucks we have to wait til May this year.  Sucks!

What round is he projected for? Very intriguing to me but you know our history with drafting players with injuries... If he's a 2nd or 3rd rounder or later, then I'd say yes please. But I don't want him in the 1st.

"This is a big man's game. I don't care what anybody says. The game's evolving, the style of play's evolving, but it's a big mans's game. Big men win, it's just the way it is. You look at Seattle and they've got heavy bodies up front, their linebackers are a little bit smaller, but that secondary's monstrous. It's a big man's game, don't let anybody tell you any different, and that's what we have to do."

    • Glass houses and all. I find the people who are the most adamant about this type of thing tend to have the most to hide. Careful buddy. 
    • Also, wanted to point out, all 3 of the Pivot guys I respect and appreciate tremendously.  I know RC only had 1 pro bowl, but I loved his game.  He was tough as nails and played with a ton of heart and grit.  He was trying to knock people out, but was also super cerebral.  Fred is obviously a hall of famer and just as tough. Channing made the most of what he had and was hard-nosed as well.  And yet, all three of them let Steve slide on a ton of poo in this interview.  They actually cowered in several moments and I don’t like that at all.  Because for all the things I mentioned in my initial post in this thread, them not trying to reel him back in or hold his feet to the fire on certain bullshit, and feels gross.  Yall were all on the same competitive level as athletes, and yet, yall just let him skate on poo like talking about invoking using a gun on someone, laughing off how he essentially ended two teammates’ careers by BULLYING them and then co-signing it, and letting him completely sidestep accountability about his affair.  I get it, because apparently he invited you to his home to do the interview, but either talk some real poo or don’t do the interview at all.  This was some real softball poo.
    • This season’s leader, Daniel Jones, is averaging 265.9 yards per game, that would rank 12th in 2015. Even going back to 2020, he would rank 10th in passing yards. So it does appear that passing yards is down, but is that because they aren’t as good? Possibly, but we were spoilt in recent years when we had Brady, Peyton, Brees, Rodgers, Roethlisberger, Rivers, Ryan, Stafford (etc). As crops of QBs go, it was an amazing era to watch and most will end up in the Hall of Fame. I’m not convinced you we could list as many potential Hall of Fame QBs from the current crop. Will it go pass heavy again? I think there’s a good chance that it will, but it will require QBs that can consistently air the ball out in the frequency we saw in the 00s and 10s. I think currently coaches are favouring a more balanced approach, if not favouring a strong running game.
