Charles Godfrey may move to nickel back


TN05

Recommended Posts

 

Gettleman said safety Charles Godfrey, a six-year veteran who tore his right Achilles tendon in Week 2 last season, is part of the team's ongoing evaluation process.

Godfrey could be a candidate to play free safety alongside strong safety Roman Harper, and he could be an option at nickel back as the Panther look to fill the role left by departed cornerback Captain Munnerlyn.

 

Full story here.

 

This wouldn't be a longshot - we drafted Godfrey as a cornerback. On the other hand, I don't think he's worth 5 million - as a safety or a nickel back.

If we are gonna pay him 5 million to be a nickelback. Why did we let go of Captain?

 

probably cause captain wasn't going to play for pennies.  this is he's deal with the vikings:

Captain Munnerlyn CB 25 3 yr $11,250,000 $3,750,000 $4,450,000 2017

 

If we cut godfrey, we'd still have to find his replacement.  it's obvious that they want godfrey to play and that he is better than anyone else available now.  but, the draft could change everything.

    • He can’t even learn to run routes. No chance in hell he can do both that and pick up blocking schemes 
    • Well he had essentially a 70% completion rate for almost three thousand yards.  Biggest issues were awkward and inconsistent release.  I wouldn't call arm strength bad, but not great.    
    • I see him being better and most of that is a few downfield passes that were seemingly non existent.    But it is what is around him that has dictated the trajectory more than the quarterbacking. He is game manager level and unable to dictate to defenses.  And even if I am wrong and he is the reason we ‘upwarded’, we are bumping our heads on the ceiling and only making meager gains. If it is an incline it is awfully shallow degree wise. Like a finance graph that tracks your progress and hovers around the rate of inflation. Barely breaking even.  Is that where you want your money?  We make up these deadlines expectations and generally he does the minimum of what he needs to do to hang around.    It does not encourage me to believe that when we get into a game against a good run d that we cannot break down with our run game, to believe that we can pivot to the air and successfully counter their strategy.  But they run it back again. Of course I am gunshy of a repeat of the same thing we have watched for three years.    oh, and yes his durability is his most impressive positive for my money. I fear the other shoe dropping on that and the contractual consequences that will follow.   Last  of all, too late to edit my mistake here but would like to acknowledge it: the last three years has done very little to convince me that I was not wrong in not wanting him. One too many “not”s.
