Alan "Blue Balls" Ball leaves Panther offer on table

[TylerVagyler]

Hope they get this done, would be a nice signing. He's played nickel in his career right?

 

From what I've read, he's better suited on the outside. If he impresses during camp I'd assume Bene slides inside as the nickel.

I heard from a Jags fan that he isn't quick enough to play the slot and that his size should primarily be used on the outside. He could be a great jammer on special teams.

Fug. I've been late twice in this thread now.

I think Alan Ball will probably end up starting on the outside with Norman. I think Bene goes back to the slot.

[KendrickPanther]

Interesting. I think I like it. If he's good enough we can move Bene in on the slot.

Off the top of my head, I don't recall us doing it much. But maybe we didn't because the staff wasn't comfortable doing it with the players we had?

 

i never understood why they do not press more, when Norman was at best in press coverage.

Now Carolina just needs to trade for Montee Ball and they'll finally have a pair of Balls, something numerous posters seem to be overly concerned about.

[uncfan888]

so... did we or didn't we sign him?

Trash

[DecrypticShadow]

Who?

Sure up the outside and let Bene play the nickel and the days of bend but don't break are over! I garuntee Bene will be tops in the league and our defense will be back in the top 5

This is something I don't understand either. 

 

I mean, our pass rush in the first half of the season was absent and that could be a reason.

That and the fact that earlier in the year the corner play of white and Cason was extremely suspect, press is sort of a gamble and can lead to getting beat badly....With Norman stepping up I think we will see more of it this season

I have a game used cleat of his so that would be cool to get him to sign it at camp
