Steve Wyche comments on NFLN this AM reg Dwill


SCP

Recommended Posts

Steve Wyche brought up an interesting point this morning after saying he thought the Panthers would be OK. His question was regarding the locker room and Deangelo's comment. To paraphrase: "If the Panthers start out slow like, 1-3, will they be able to overcome like last year or will Dwill's comments bubble to the top and start to permeate the locker room?" This animosity could be dangerous.

Does Dwill think he is going to be a June cut?

It almost feels like it. This morning was the first time I heard his comments. He's already questioning his new teammates which is fine if done in house. But to do it like this could really effect the locker room if things start going south on the field. Finger pointing in April is a slippery slope. Then again if we win these comments don't mean poo.

Williams is bitter--maybe he was not smart enough to hide it.  However, I agree with Wyche and I also agree that I can find a hungry stud RB who plays much cheaper in the sixth round.

 

I think, when you go public and criticize the front office, the writing is not only on the wall, it is on your tombstone.

If he is cut the comments don't mean poo. 

 

As you probably know by now, I am a middle-aged fishnet banana hammock model who commands a pretty nice salary, or I will in 2-3 weeks when the fungus clears up.  Anyway, would I bite the hand that feeds me when I know there are thousands-well, hundreds of 20-year olds out there chomping at the bit to take my place for much less than I get?

 

I cannot begin to comprehend just how stupid this was.

You guys are as bad as the assumptions the media makes.

Normally I would agree with you but this is a little different. The situation plays a role in this. What Dwill said, a lot of it is true. He wasn't just talking smack or using hyperbole. He was saying what we all feel, his teammates included. This could open the door and snowball if things start out poorly. It makes it a lot easier for others to start pointing fingers when an 8 year vet teed it up on the national stage.

But we don't have the option of taking a paycut to help resign a Ginn or LaFell.

    • Right...I think they've done really well. No one's going to bat 1000% but they've addressed areas of need and there's no comparison to the overall talent of the team now than when DC and then Morgan got the reigns. This whole season is about seeing how much of a step up can Bryce and this team make. If Bryce can't and last year is as good as it gets for him then at least we have a talented roster for the next guy. I think we're going to be good this season 
    • I said could, not would. I recognize he has potential based on past performance. Compared to what KP has done, Howell has more potential and the physical traits to make noise. KP has small hands and a weak arm. Not something you want in even your backup QB.  I've been hammering since last off-season before we re-signed Dalton, improve the room. Other than getting younger, I don't see how anyone can say we legitimately improved the room or even tried. We might as well have signed Josh Rosen.  Dalton is still on the roster for now. That's 3 QBs unless we trade or cut him. He's still Bryce's mentor after all. Do you believe we are going to draft someone with potential and give them a legitimate opportunity to develop from the practice squad? Are we going to carry 3 QBs on the active roster? 4 for a developmental rookie? Are we going to potentially cut KP if we draft a rookie and he's outperformed? Doubtful. Cutting Dalton(if we can't trade him) and KP would be 8m in wasted cap space.  I chose Howell as an example because he showed promise in his only full season as a starter. You could plug in another name with the physical traits and potential and what i said would still apply. KP showed almost nothing and was benched. I genuinely don't care if it’s rookie pick as long as there is the potential to develop into a future NFL QB.  As much as I can't stand him, Bellichek was always developing a number 2 QB even with the GOAT as his starter. The wisdom of that was evident when Cassell came in when Brady was hurt week 1 and went 11-5 and almost made the wildcard, which 11-5 gets you almost any other year. I give credit where it's due though. Cassel and Jimmy G both came into the league as developmental QBs, potential QB1s, and went on to have careers.  You never know if you never try. KP feels like a punt in addressing the most important position on the field. Bryce has never played 2 full games of franchise QB level football back to back.  If Bryce progresses, are you ready to offer a 280m 5 year extension based off a one hit wonder year? If Bryce regresses and we need a QB in 27, are we going to trade a fortune away again to trade up to 1 to get one? Are you ready to do the past 3 years all over again?  To me, it's not about Kenny Pickett. It's about the move itself. It was a feeble attempt to improve the QB room. We better hope Bryce succeeds, because if he doesn't, we literally have no backup plan right now.   
    • IOL that early isn’t good value at all. We have a LT who might not ever be good again and a RT that might retire soon. T seems deep early in this draft, so I’d go there in the 1st.
