NFL Free Agency Update Thread

In terms of historic day one prospects (first three rounds), seems like we're really keying in on OT, DE, and CB. Curiously, I haven't seen much if any talk of visits with WR prospects.

Shhh J Hardy is on lock for Panthers draft ;) why see any other WRs.

If Boykin is the answer the Panthers have at the number 2 WR we are no doubt scoring more FGs instead of more TDs. I just heard a guy on WFNZ in the Green Bay area literally say the one thing he seen when we played GB last season that the Panthers do not have is play makers for Cam. At least someone who follows a winning team is in agreement with me.

Only if you do first. At least give me an argument against it or add something to it. Just passing along a message from a guy who is following a team that has actually won SBs.

 

You keep saying Boykin would be #2 when at best he'd be our 4th or 5th option...and that's even if we actually sign him.  False premise, no argument to be had.

Then why call him in? We have plenty of depth WRs and I see no point in it if he is not your answer to go opposite of Benjamin. Instead of focusing on the WRs that are left we are focusing on a guy who is depth then?

    • NFL Pro has the All-22 up already 😄 Going to grab a play or two from each redzone series to put screenshots to. Looks like AT angled his route off to the near pylon rather than the back corner where Bryce was throwing to. I imagine this is something they'll quickly try to figure out with Thielen back from IR. After watching the All-22 again, this was actually a pretty nifty play. I thought it was a TE screen to Tremble because of the way XL charged the DB, but he quickly shed and kept upfield as seen in the second screenshot. This looks like it had multiple layers built into it with AT running the crosser, XL the fade, Tremble to the flat. The progression would call for the play to go to Chuba here as the LB does follow Tremble out into the flat. Ball hits Chuba low and in the hands, but the LB does a good job disrupting the catch.
    • The bottom lines to me are that a) we played well enough to beat the best team in the league and b) Bryce Young is growing into a bridge QB role (his ceiling) for us. As much as I don't want BY around after the season, it seems DC can still build the O with a game manager at QB for now. Best case scanario, we can build the D through the draft this year and take a QB we have conviction outside the 1st this or next draft. If BY keeps improving, we are going to win a couple more games this year.
    • Bryce has been a completely different QB since coming back. That started in Denver where it was obviously he was playing a lot more loose and willing to push the ball downfield  Bryce continues to build off of the previous weeks performance and that’s what you want to see Bryce has been making some real good anticipation throws. Reading defenses well. Pushing the ball downfield (7 throws of 20+ air yards yesterday. 8 if you want to include PI to Thielen). The deep ball accuracy has been there. Some of Young’s best throws yesterday were incompletions. Sideline balls to XL and Moore both should’ve been caught. RZ dot to Tremble should’ve been caught. And another RZ ball to Moore that Young gave him a chance at. Bryce is starting to execute Canales offense and yesterday Canales finally opened it up a bit. Canales was to blame for the 126 passing yards in Germany as he played a more conservative game.  The next bit I’m looking for his for Young to be a bit more decisive with running the ball. Start putting that on film and it’ll help open things up a tad
