One DE sack in five games per B&B review

Except for KK, this dline is not cutting it. Johnson and Allen are done, have no wheels left. Without a pass rush there is no hope to help our secondary. Having to send a lb or safety to generate any pass rush hurts the defense even more. Number one priority is the best DE we can get out of this draft.  Going to have to replace the two old men in the secondary also, big liability with no rush. 

I'm hoping there will be no Twitter trash talking today from a certain DE who did nothing. Time to cut some ties and restock the dline.

That sack was by Ealy in the Dallas game.

Here we go again. This is Newton/Riveria's 5th season together. We have drafted exactly 1 offensive player in the first round since. And he was taken at the end of the first and was about the 8th pass catcher taken.

At what point does the Panthers think it is a good idea to stop going bargain shopping on offense and dump YET more resources into a unit that is filled with high draft picks and free agents?

The quiet you will hear on a certain Twitter account will be deafining. Having to send TD to generate any pass rush  at all was telling. Free up some money by cutting some ties and get the best FA and draft pick you can get to rectify this next year.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist

      Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.

      Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
