Who Are Your Top 10 Panthers on the Roster?


Recommended Posts

So, it is the offseason, and I am bored.  If you had to look at the current roster, who are your top 10 Panthers?

Not saying importance to the team, or future potential. Which players play their position the best? 

Here is my top 10.  Feel free to argue (I didn't really have to say that)

 

1. Luke Kuechly

2. Cam Newton

3. Kawaan Short

4. Trai Turner

5. Thomas Davis

6. Greg Olsen

7. Star Lotulelei

8. Jonathan Stewart

9. Kurt Coleman

10. Ryan Kalil


 

Just for fun, here is 11-20

11. Kony Ealy

12. Shaq Thompson

13. Andrew Norwell

14. Kelvin Benjamin

15. Charles Johnson

16. Mike Tolbert

17. Michael Oher

18. Mike Remmers

19. JJ Jansen

20. Devin Funchess

I think it could be rationally argued that we have 8 players who are at or near the top of their position in the entire NFL. From your list:

1. Luke Kuechly

2. Cam Newton

3. Kawaan Short

4. Trai Turner

5. Thomas Davis

6. Greg Olsen

7. Star Lotulelei

10. Ryan Kalil

I don't think Coleman or JStew could really be argued across the NFL...but are obviously important to our team. But if Coleman balls out again this year then that argument could indeed be made.

Cam, Luke, TD, Short, Olsen, Kalil, Star, Stewart, KB, Turner

My first 6 were in the same order as yours.

The only different player I picked than you is I chose Oher over Star.  Love Star, but I think he's more easily replaceable than our starting LT.

Cam

luke 

kk

olsen

kalil

trai

star

stew

ginn

oher

i based this off last year. Ginn was highly important for speed and for pr. Oher protected cam's blindside amazingly well and based off 2014 we can see how important this is. Cam is #1 because of position but Luke and cam are the same type of quality players who have leadership roles that put this team on the map (along with td)

Cam, Luke, KK, TD, Greg, Trai, Kalil, Stew, Norwell,

... and last, but not least, JJ!    Great long-snappers are under-rated!  :-)

True, but seriously, very hard to choose #10.

Debated between:  Star, Gano (was #2 in points in the league last year), Coleman.

    • Yes.  And this converts directly to confidence.  Does the coach have confidence to call a deep dig or seam route?  Does Bryce have confidence in his ability to be the Alpha?  Do his teammates have confidence.  About film--when I see Cam Newton's pre-snap confidence vs. Bryce's, it is night and day.   Film--tells you if the WRs are open (why l love watching the Replay telecasts from the end zone cameras--you can see it.  I have seen 2 WRs open and Bryce's eyes are on the outlet WR or the pass rush. )  You can see progressions, and he has improved a bit--but he is very quick to rush through 1 and 2 and checkdown--that is a lack of confidence in his ability to read the defense.  I had a former NFL TE (Deems Maye) who played QB in high school (not sure about college) tell me that the best QBs read the defense by knowing where everyone will be when the ball is to arrive--not where they are.  I think his QB at the time was Humphries.  He said that Humphries would throw the ball into coverage before the cuts etc.  because he understood DB momentum, zone areas, etc.  and he could just see it.  Said so when people say nobody was open, they are usually right because nobody should be "open" when the QB has the ball--when the ball arrives, everyone should be open.  He said Humphries was never "great" but his skills were limited--from a small school--but his ability to read a defense made him never give up on a route.
