Let's get some optimism brewing in this mf'er people of ze globe:

1. Christian McCaffrey RB/OW

He will be an immediate impact on the offense and could revitalize that side of the ball for us.  Big added dynamic and a for sure impact.  With Cam, Olsen, KB and an improved line, I hope our guys our determined to put the league on notice.  I foresee a handful and more 34+ burgers this season.    

I'm thinking a FLOOR this season of 500 running yards, 250 receiving, 6 total TDs.  Ceiling of 900 rushing yards, 500 receiving, 11 total TDs

 

2. Curtis Samuel WR

We cannot expect him to come out with a big impact but I can see him rising as the year begins.  He may not even get a catch Game 1 but I could see him having a few 60+ yarder performances before midseason.  We should still be very excited for the Brooklyn Blur but with tempered expectations at the get-go.  

A Floor expectation: ~30 receptions, 450 yards, 3 TDs; optimistic breakthrough year: 55 receptions, 800 yards, 7 TDs

 

2.  Taylor Moton OT/G

This man is the hidden gem at OL.  I feel really confident about Moton.  Now, Williams may be starting over him at the get-go but I think he will compete and also be able to fortify this line.  He can play G and T which is huge for depth and he's seems like one of the more solid lineman I've seen us pickup in some time.  

 

3. Dasheon Hall DE

I really hope this man can develop. He's got the athletic mold, skillset, and vets around him.  He has the get-off and I could see his bend and burst coming together.  

Floor expectation: <15 tackles, 2.5 sacks (Not that I think he won't produce, but DE take some molding)

Surprise year: If CJ or Peppers show some wear and tear and Hall excels past Horton: 20 tackles, 5 sacks

 

Corn Elder, Armah, and Butker: May you find your way to the field and not leave us.  I still like all 3.  

The harvest is in full swing.  

 

I see at least 4 contributors and three question marks (IR, PS, and Gano'd)

Whatsayouuuu?

      Little worried about Jarvy Shoulder and that torn cuff, it's needed surgery for 2 years now and he's gonna play with it injured again next season.    I like the toughness but would definitely prefer it to be fixed. He's an intritical player on the team going forward.    Also I was high on pain pills last time I wrote about saving cap space but I didn't go into detail cause I wouldn't have been able to do so. "still on a ton of pain medication but not as nearly as many, think I'm down to 23 pills a day from 32 a few days ago, 18 of them are for pain management in some form or another."     But I digress let's get to the point I was trying to make in my last post about saving, I'll now use Jarvis as an example.    Let's say the canes spend 23m of the 28m in space they have available. Then have Jarvis get surgery and put him on LTIR at the start of the regular season.  You let the cap space sit til the trade deadline. At the deadline that cap space would have accural on it and the team can use that space and spend 24m on incoming salary for the rest of the season. Let's say they bring in 5 players and send out two. "player A has an 8m AAV contract" he'd cost Carolina 4m the rest of the season. Player B makes 10 "cost of 5. So forth and so forth.  Using that accural system and the Jarvis LTIR, the Canes could then go into the playoffs with a healthy Jarvis and be 19m over the cap legally for a cup run. The more cap space available at the start of the season, the larger the accural would be at the trade deadline.    That was the first part of what I was going to try and articulate the other day but I'm on 35mg of oxy every 6 hours plus ketorolac and two other pain pills and another for kidney spasms.    Have a wonderful night everyone

      Will history repeat itself and Carolina make it to NFCCG this year?

      The main thing that makes the NFL so appealing is how unpredictable it is
