Big Frank, Big Frank, Big Frank!


Recommended Posts

I keep hearing a metric poo-ton regarding how Big Frank is going to be the savior of the line. Can someone PLEASE do a scouting style thread discussing why this man should be more than what I've seen of him?

 

Please help me see the light; I think I've missed it.

Yea, im a big frank supporter.  Im also a grease monkey from monroe.  With that said i see alot in him like what i saw in hardy before he broke out.  Always around the play, play inside or out, and just a half second from the sack.  Once he puts it together yea i think he will be what we need opposite CJ.

I haven't seen anything about him being the savior. I've seen some discussion of hope that he can be a contributor.

Your definition of metric poo ton and savior is drastically different than mine.

I don't know if I would necessarily say overrated, but you got to admit, the kid has garnered his fair share of interest recently. With good reason I would think. If he could somehow win the LE job, man, that would help our D immensely Not to mention his opportunity for him to earn himself, a good sized raise.

I don't want to put any stock into Frank. Let him be a rotational/depth player. I am really hoping the 2nd we spent on Ealy pays off this year. He showed some flashes last season so lets see what a full NFL off-season has done for him.

Well he's doing pretty well in summer league...

HA! I think tat went over a lot of heads.

Is Frank clean now? I won't get excited about him until I see him in uniform in September

I believe he's been talked to about that whole issue, and that he knows this is his absolute last chance here in Carolina.

He'll have to work to get that trust up again. But, I think Rivera is excited due to what he's seen before he screwed up like he did last season.

I'm excited to see the whole Dline rotation work out. I mean hell, rested players make better players. And I think we have some depth there that will help keep them rested and ready.

Because he showed a fair amount of promise in 2012 before getting into Rivera's doghouse in 2013 and the league's doghouse in 2014.  Very few are touting him as a guaranteed breakout, but if the guy has his head right he's just as good as Addison and Horton and has a lot more upside.

    • One has a proven, offensive-minded, Super Bowl winning head coach along with a top 5 OL + defense. He's being protected and getting the ball back not having to chase the other teams. The other had Frank Reich + Thomas Brown their rookie year with a bottom 5 defense as well as a bottom 5 OL that gave up the 2nd most sacks against a rookie QB ever. The sophomore season is being ran with a top 5 OL but also with a rookie HC (that has just one year of OC experience) and a bottom 5 defense still. The Broncos defense has allowed over 20pts just three times this season (26 vs. SEA (L), 23 vs. LAC (L), 41 vs. BAL (L)). Meanwhile, the Panthers have had ONE game where the defense gave up less than 20pts (vs. NYG (W)).   I'm not sure how folks couldn't expect Bo Nix to statistically perform better given their incredibly different situations. With that said, I didn't expect Nix to keep ascending as impressively as he has this season. Hopefully his arc will give other older college QBs a better shot, especially given the recent media blitz against the NFL regarding how development of the QB position in the league seems to be non-existent. Hopefully Bryce continues to improve as well, of course.  
    • “You can learn a lot in 10 games,” Nix said. “[I’m] still learning, still growing, but just finding ways to execute the play that’s called, no matter what it is: run play, pass play. It doesn’t matter. Just finding the right way to go with the ball.” To that point, Nix noted how his developing partnership with head coach Sean Payton has helped Denver’s offense get to the next level. “To be honest, I think at the beginning, you kind of make the NFL bigger than what it actually is,” Nix said when asked where he feels he’s made the most strides. “These players are really good, but at the same time, you have really good players on your level. I think simplifying the game, trying to play as fast as possible, and finding a completion, which is what we’ve been able to do here recently. “I think as we’ve gone on, Coach and I have found a good rhythm of what we both like, what we can kind of put out there on the field, and what we can execute. Then the guys have kind of adapted to it, found our roles within the offense, and executed at a high level. It’s just all about slowing the game down and processing things in a manner that you can handle. Just kind of see one or two things, and let those guys take you to where the ball is supposed to be.” -Bo Nix From what I'm gathering regarding Bryce, the Panthers entered this season with a reset mindset. It's Young's rookie year, which explains the benching. Now, we're beginning to see the development of Canales and Young's offense. Slow development but we're winning 😃 
    • Bix has more tds through his first 11 games than bryce has his entire career....no comparison at all he made amazing throws during his first games his decision making just keeps getting better.  Young does not have the physical ability ro make the rhrows bo makes
