We could be witnessing a birth of a shutdown corner that could pay huge dividends this season. With a year of experience & NFL conditioning the CB duo should take huge strides in the upcoming season. Look for Wilks to incorporate the CBs ability to play man & zone into playcalling that frees up the Safety  for other assignments. 

-This is was one my reason not needing a safety in the 1st round but it will be beneficial to address it in the mid rounds. 

-Also why pass rushers will be able to get to the QB with that extra sec aka Charles Johnson & Peppers

At its core, this defense is centered around the Rivera defense philosophy.

So, no, I don't see there being any vast difference between McDermott and Wilkes.  Much like the offensive coordinator, what they do is exactly what the head coach wants.

I beg to differ. Mr. Scot has alluded to multiple times about Rivera's scheme in SD, and how Wilks will likely incorporate more man to man schemes.

McDermott was a zone-centric blitz heavy style defense from what he saw back in Philly's Johnson era defense, and Rivera is more fundamental and let your front wreck havoc type of guy. Wilks does enjoy working with the secondary a lot, so I'd expect him to add some more flair to the style of play back there.

Fingers crossed that what you say is true.

Don't expect anything ground breaking year one. We will still be a zone blitz team because of continuity. Year 2 it might change more.

I think that's our LBr strength and based on we have 3 first round LBrs, they are the center of the defense.

This is the key with CB ability to takeaway the  deep outside threats LBs and Safety's can work  underneath to stop the quick underneath and middle passes.

      Start with Bryce, this is like his rookie year. The 1st 2 games proved her was wired wrong and it looks like (we hope) he needed a time out to reset and be the player that was drafted. He's still about a year or more away from being a top 15 QB, if the Panther give him another playmaker or 2 (a top WR and a decent TE) and maintain that line. Canales deserves credit as playing that card correctly to motivate (or refocus) his QB for one last shot to decide his and the Panthers immediate future. As a Panther fans we should hope he keeps improving as we invested so much to get him. CJ Stroud will never have a season like he had, even if he stays a top 10 QB. He's got great character so I'm rooting for Bryce to continue on his positive journey. Canales is playing the week to week thing with bryce perfectly. Nothings guaranteed, earn it weekly which builds consistency and consistency is greatness.  Keep the O-line. They've got to extend Brady C, along with Mayes that have a real good 7. Great job Morgan starting with the big guys upfront.  I really hope they draft a DE or OLB in the 1st round. Getting Brown back with A Robinson and what DJ has shown that we can have a decent D-line. Need a CB in the early rounds/ or a time FA to go with Horn.  The future as to next year being good enough to challenge for the division is within reach. Just show progress (win or lose) every week. Kudos to Dan Morgan. Plays GM like a LB. Tackle the problem and move on, don't just hope it works out. Find guys with your playing mentality and work closely with your HC to share a vision. Teamwork starts at the top and flows down.
