Slye is Gone

If you look at average kicker salary Ryan Santoso is actually making slightly more than Slye was which is still bottom of the league. So I don't understand the anger like he was overpaid and overrated. We took a chance on youth and affordability. I wish the guy luck but this is a common story around the league maybe he'll get another chance somewhere else down the line.

Is Santoso from around here? I’m fairly sure this guy was the manager at Chewy’s the last time I went.

ETA: before all the huffing and puffing, I believe he’s the only of Indonesian descent player in the NFL.

seems like a bad gamble.  

He was more of a punter than kicker in college….and only punted his last 2 seasons.    He has bounced around the league for a half decade and one team let him be a kickoff specialist for part of a season (and he was bad at that). 

if you are going to gamble on a young promising leg….you need to a actually find one.

You don't know anything about Santoso. So why assume he's not good?

We do know things about Santoso.  

He kicked at Minnesota.  He wasn’t a good FG kicker in college…they replaced him on FGs and he only punted and kicked off his last two seasons.  

He has bounced around the league for a half decade trying to kick.  Titans let him be a kickoff specialist for part of a season….and he had a very low TB %. 

why would anyone assume that he can be an efficient FG and KO guy for the Panthers based off that?

How about we go with this fact? He did enough to earn this shot. How about we wait until he fails to roast him?

 

You really have become a grumpy old man lately. Sorry to see that.

    • All QBs have limitations  I guess it becomes how much of the offensive playbook is gutted to accommodate those limitations ..and the world shouldn’t have been given up for a game manager …but, if he can be enough of a game manager for one season, and allow for BPA in this year’s draft, that’s a win to me as the Panthers have so many holes now.  I’m encouraged that Morgan will fill them im also encouraged that Canales will move on from Young if, and when, appropriate…as HC, it’s about more than just his Offensive playbook     I am glad for Young…no harm in being glad for his improvement.  the tale of  his tape is coming with all but one probable playoff team on the schedule i would love to see them move on from Evero…even when he had players, there was always a reason they couldn’t get off the field.  Salah, come on down  
    • "Our O-Line is finally good, so we should get rid of the most consistent guy we've ever had at RT and roll the dice on a rookie in the draft because it's cheaper." -Idiots Ever heard the idiom "A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush"? Moton is a Pro Bowl level Tackle. Extend Moton 3 years with the ability to cut bait at 2 if decline in play happens due to age. Look at drafting a tackle in the mid-rounds who is raw but has potential, and let him learn under Moton for a season or two. If he shows progress and looks like he can be the heir apparent, then move on from either Moton or Icky and have the newest guy slide in to the vacant T spot. If Icky continues to play well (And he has played very well this year, people are being chuds about him based on last year) then extend him too. You can't sit here and bitch about how "We AlWaYs GeT rId Of OuR bEsT pLaYeRs" then turn around and bitch when we extend said best players. Who gives a poo if we have a ton of money tied up in the line? That's where you should invest the team's money. O-Line makes the offense run. Hell, draft an O-Lineman every draft. You can never have too many of them.
