Didn't Darby struggle in coverage last year, especially in the playoffs? 

Not sure, but he was coming off an injury that sat him for 2 months early in the season.  He returned week 11, I think.

Just for paper reasons, can someone post the PFF grades of worley and darby please?

Darby - 84.2 (23rd CB)

Bradberry - 42.4 (109th CB)

Worley - 58.9 (89th CB)

 

FWIW, Darby's grade was listed as above average.

I looked up his PFF numbers...according to their system he actually played pretty well.

Let's see.

1. Still better than Worley.

2. Only one million dollars.

3. They won the fuging super bowl, so they did something right.

Imagine him with a team that gets more pressure than the eagles did? Jesus Bradberry was worse than worley when bradberry was a top one the year before on PFF. How much did he fall? We need veteran corners. Would be much cheaper than Fuller.

The Eagles had a pretty impressive pass rush.  But I honestly think Bradberry's falloff last year was due to poor safety play.  He was always close by with tight coverage, but allowed the catch because he was never positioned to jump routes.  It was almost as if he played soft because he knew if he did let the WR by, it was a TD (with such poor safety talent behind him).  He just didn't seem confident at all.

We could cut Sheppard and trade for Darby and still gain $1M in cap space lol. Considering how cheap his contract is, we can still spend big on a WR in FA. I like the idea of trading up for Derwin James too if he falls within range.

Sign a FA WR, bring back Peppers and maybe sign Vinny Curry when he’s cut, trade for Darby, trade up for Derwin James and draft a RB in the 2nd. That’s a crazy good offseason. Too good to be true.

The other question I have is how much is he going to command when he hits FA?

Well with a lousy free agent class and very little cap space, there's not as many options.

who said we have very little cap space? we can afford 2-3 people and if we go after darby with one of our thirds, it would cost next to nothing.

      I do not want nor have the energy to start a sanders vs BY topic..... Heres where Im at, what else is Titans Levi's or colts Arich going give in a trade...... Im no sanders fan, but it wouldn't bug me if caralas/Brandt/tepper/who____ wanted to go another route.....yes its been a QB whirlwind since ...to long.... still Im not sold on the skill and talent of one BY.   I think this is first year in many in which Carolina with have the same HC, QB, and GM. Its been a mess...

      Ryan Fowler: Panthers hosting Texas A&M Shemar Stewart

      No one should be the least bit surprised by this organization doing powerfully stupid stuff. You don't accidentally achieve the worst record in the NFL since 2018, it takes consistently awful decisions to pull that off. And then the cherry on top of the dog poo sundae is that every year when we're closing in on a top 5 pick, here comes a couple of meaningless moral victories to fug that up. I'd be curious what percentage of our wins in the Tepper era have come when we're mathematically eliminated from the playoffs.

      I think remember doing mock Sims for Carolina as many others, I don't think any of picked RBs in any rounds.... I honestly had the same "my team let me down" feels with the BY pick........just WHY all the holes and one of the spots were they have depth AND the RB market is at the lowest point in NFL history..... Just a    Per normal the huddle was for all for Zach Frazier, not me I wanted Marshawn Kneeland. Plus I wanted to REMAIN AT whatever LA pick and NOT TRADE UP FOR A ACL injuried RB. My friend was right, Dan did draft like he was still playing in his era..... ugh, Brandt and Dan cannot have that same problem this year......its beginning year 2 of a full 3 year rebuild..... for fugs sake, please find some talent and depth in later rounds....
