Hot take: Jeremy Cash is our best rookie right now

He's definitely the best rookie relative to his draft position.

Cause he was an undrafted free agent, and he made the team?

I disagree. 

When they signed Cash, giving him the signing bonus they did, the Panthers expected him to make the team.  What will his impact be this year, beyond Special teams? 

All this keeps things in a bit of perspective.

cash's ceiling is James Anderson 

he was drafted to be a coach in three years

Well for a time, if memory served me right, James Anderson held the record for most tackles for a Panther in a season. So if that's Cash's ceiling, then that's pretty impressive.

Another year, another love affair with an undrafted rookie. It's like Byron Bell all over again. It seems people lose perspective with these undrafted guys.

Cash in the bank bro!

I think people are overlooking that we might use him in a moneybacker type role.  It's been mentioned by the staff.

Ahead of Thompson?

Cash won't see the field this year, next year and maybe the year after that.

 

He's behind Mayo and Mayo barely gets any snaps

No but having that depth is crucial.  Better than Colin Jones for that role behind Thompson.  

On a side note, our LBs are so freaking good it's ridiculous.

I agree about love affair with undrafted rookie part of your post. I just can't remember anyone ever having it for Bell.

Season will be upon us soon and time will tell, but OP is very disrespectful of what Bradberry has accomplished in such a short time. From a "who?" Draft pick to starting CB on NFC Champion?

i like Cash but he is a back up to a back up.

I don't really disagree with you, but to play devil's advocate here - who was there for Bradberry to compete against? I suppose if he really sucked they may have found someone else but he was expected to start from Day 1 and he's met that expectation. Can anyone say that the team truly expected Cash to make the roster when they signed him, particularly with as stacked as that LB group is?

Giving him a nod and admitting he will see the field more is disrespectful how?
