Maybe its just me but im pretty sick of the panthers not playing in the super bowl to be giving hometown benefit of the doubt to middling players.

And this forum is getting tired of m****s who don't know poo about football.

Bradberry is a solid corner.

I like him, if he could get more consistent, that's the last part he needs in his game.

if we get a pass rush this year,   all of our corners are going to look much better.

Funny you mention pay attention because that seens to be one of the big things holding Bradberry back. If he would learn how to track the ball better and turn his head around he could take major steps. 

With Perry as our secondary coach I’m expecting him to finally do these things

[mc52beast]

A lot of people here think Bradberry is trash but the dude shows he can play with the best in the League. Yes he can improve but locking down top tier recovers isn’t something a lot of corners can claim to do

He is average at best

Ask the receivers he locks down what they think about him... pretty sure the word average won’t be in their answer

This, my friends, will cure many of the ills of this team.

Thanks for posting this.  Seems like too many people forget this is a team sport.

He performed about as well as Norman does against Odell. 

All in all,  I would take JB.  Sure, he is not a vocal leader, but man is he steady.  We get us a nickel and solve the safety issues, and a pass rush, and  a consistent DT--we are set.

Playing corner in today's NFL is more difficult than it has ever been. Bradberry is a solid player, anyone that doesn't think so isn't paying attention.

Need a young FS that has size and speed to cover TEs, slot WRs and RBs. Similar to Malik Hooker.

We need to lock up Bradberry long term

Yea, people were calling Bradberry a "Lock Down" corner, I pointed out he wasn't with a few stats that say he is borderline avg & a few jokes about Deion and HoF, you got butthurt about it. Must be rough being mad all the time, maybe smoke some weed and stop stressing over jokes.

Where is this “lockdown” post you speak of? 

 One of your stats designed to show his “average ability” put him in the top 6 of all CBs. Well done.

 And one less INT over the past 3 seasons than the guy considered the best CB in the game. 

  I guess I do see the humor now. Surely FACTS like those shouldn’t have ever been taken seriously.

lol that isn't film, those are highlights, ones that feature bradberry surrendering 8/131/ and Six, which tends to happen to overmatched role players who are asked to do too much 

The objective truth is that blandfest cliches like "if all of our defensive linemen were elite pass rushers, it doesn't matter who we put back there baby! Huzzah! Run the ball, stop the run!!" isn't going to put the Panthers back in the super bowl.

To put the panthers back in the super bowl, the panthers are going to have to win their division, and to win their division, they are going to need the ability to play press man against two teams who aren't sitting in the pocket waiting for said cliche to hit them, and to so this, the panthers are going to need more than a "solid" #1 CB, and it doesn't take an an infantile caps lock outburst to get that point across

[AU-panther]

Can he play free safety?

And what exactly are we basing these opinions of Bradberry on?  interceptions? passes defended?  PFF grade? or the infamous "eye test" which is code for "I make a judgement on a player based off of a few terrible/great plays with no context with every other player in the league at that same position, also I don't actually watch said player unless he is directly involved with the ball"
