What the Mike Mitchell signing says to the league

Are you a veteran defensive player that needs a fresh start? Go play on the Panthers for a year on the cheap, and you will cash in the year after.

All in all, not a bad deal for us.

Shows to go ya, Good coaching can mean the world to players. Rivera took a perceived under performer and turned him into a viable Safety.

But by all means. Let's get rid of Rivera. (Sarcasm) And I hate having to qualify that statement in order to keep the wolves at bay.

I like Mitchell, but I just don't see him being as good as he was here. We have a pretty good history at making unspectacular rental safeties look great. Marlon McCree? Chris Harris? There's one more that played for us for like a year or two that shined on our squad and fizzled out on his new team. As I type this, I'm scratching my head as to why we can't make Godfrey look great...

He got overpaid so it's whatever.

 

But I do wonder if, given his success in SD and now Carolina, Rivera and company feel as if they can put whoever in the secondary and have the "system" make the player.  This obviously requires a great pass rush which we seem to be intent on keeping.

 

I know we haven't been known as team with a "system" that players can be inserted into but.....worth thinking about.

    • At the moment? Absolutely not. Maybe if they drop the next three in a row and go into the deadline at 3-6 I can see an argument to be made to move Rico as he's on a 1yr deal. I'd rather keep Chuba's contract though and roll with ETN + JB next season. The team will have plenty of time to see how JB is looking going into the offseason a year-plus after his surgery to know whether or not they need to plan for another direction.
    • I forgot to mention my thoughts on the rushing grade! 😮 He ran his ass off both weeks. I can't remember the stat offhand but didn't he have something crazy like 120+ yards after contact vs. Dallas? Against Miami he had lanes as wide as the entirety of I-95 to run through which is why his rushing grade wasn't as high as this week's. He's ran like a man possessed and going to earn himself some money in the offseason.
    • I'm not sure how much I'm changing mid year, especially when we are seeing some success.    Most Pass Rushers are physically gifted. Scheme and personnel help, but you gotta have the Jimmys and Joes, especially at that position.    We will likely lose games when the other team can throw for 400 yards, and has multiple high level receivers, but I think at this point in the development of our franchise, we have to be ok with that. You can't address every single issue at once. Really looks like we have plugged some holes on offense, and definitely in run defense. In the next draft, if we hit on a CB, an ILB and a Pass rusher, we will be pretty dangerous.
