How would you rank our positions in importance?...

For the Panthers, if you had to sit down and rank our positions on a scale of importance (1 being the least important, 17 being the most important) to our schemes and system, how would you rate them? I'm not talking about the actual players in the position, but rather the positions influence in what we try to achieve...

For me, as of right now it would look like this...

RB - 17 - most important

OT - 16

MLB - 15

DT - 14

OLB - 13

DE - 12

G - 11

WR - 10

CB - 9

SS - 8

QB - 7

FS - 6

C - 5

FB - 4

TE - 3

K - 2

P -1

C, FB, and TE could all be higher up the list I suppose, but do you think this is pretty accurate given our schemes of running the ball/stopping the run?

I use this ranking in some of my offseason projection work, so getting your opinions here would be helpful here as well...

Again, don't include players we actually have right now, but the overal influence a position has on our schemes...

So you're saying swapping Harris for Teal has a bigger impact than Moore for Delhomme? Hmm. The success of at least 1/3rd of any teams offensive snaps is down to the QB, you can't the same for 1/3rd of defensive snaps for SS, CB or DE.

RB, OL, and WR all have a greater importance to our offensive scheme than our QB, in my opinion... If you need evidence, see how long we stuck with Jake Delhomme...

SS, CB, and DE just happen to be more important to their unit's cause than QB on the overall team spectrum... in my opinion...

You are out of your mind for putting the center that low...the center is the smartest guy on the the field, making line calls checking blitzes

also, I would prefer you all offer up your own lists if they are very different than my own...

I AM, what's the point of us making up lists in order of importance to the coaches philosophy right now? The lists will virtually be the same.

Now, if you ask people to make their own lists as to how they would like the FO to value the positions, then you may get an interesting thread.

17- RB- Our backs make our lineman look pretty good some times.

16- C- Kalil is the man

15- WR- Steve Smith makes our passing offense, he is the only respectable threat right now, though that should change with Moore

14- QB- You saw how big of a difference Moore made when he got in there. We could have taken any team in the league last year in that 5 game stretch.

13- MLB- Self explanatory it's John Beason folks

12- FB/DE- Hoover paves the way. We need to generate pressure on the edge, it's been a while since we've been able to consistently do that.

11- OT- Obviously this is a very important position, but we also have quality back ups in Schwartz and Bernadau, we didn't miss a beat with Gross out. Otah is a beast.

10- DT- We need the beef upfront, injuries killed this spot and it showed, but it would have looked alot better if Moore had been starting earlier.

9- OLB

8- CB

7- FS

6- SS

5- OG- Don't be mistaken, this is an important component for us. I love me some road graders (Wharton, Vincent, Bernadau, Schwartz, Duke etc). But we have alot of depth here. It's easier to find OG than OTs. It always seems like we can plug and play with our guys, probably because we have a great line coach.

4- K-With all of the close games we like to have we need a kicker who can win it.

3- P- Need the field position

2- TE- Traditionally not a big deal in Fox's scheme but I think that will change as we have alot of talent here.

1-Don't have a #1 because of #12.

I was meaning for you to rank thim excluding our actual personnel... like, just how important each position (regardless of who is currently in it) is to our success...

      We looked like a competent NFL team PIE thread

      By Prowler2k18 · Posted

      We could easily pick apart yesterday’s game: dropped passes, blown coverages, bad tackling and red zone issues to name a few. But it was clear that this wasn’t the same team from earlier in the season. They fought back and hung with the champs until the end. That’s what I was excited to see and it gives me hope that we’re on the right track.

      Bryce developing before our eyes

      By Pejorative Miscreant · Posted

      I think BY played well today and exceeded expectations. I will temper future expectations as he has to string together many games of consistent quality. One game doesn’t convince me that he is a franchise QB or even a guy you want to stick with for another season. One game doesn’t erase all the negative play and limitations from the past couple of years. I hope he balls out and continues to get better but for me the verdict is still out   That said, I think he gave the team and fans hope yesterday which is a lot more than what we had when we woke up Sunday morning.

      Bryce Young - Good and Bad, what say you?

      By Ricky Prickles · Posted

      He was vastly improved today and we need to see more of Bryce the rest of the season to continue evaluate him in order to decide what the heck to do with him at the end of the season. He must play at least like this and improve more from here the rest of the season in order for me to keep him. No more 123 yard passing games and want to see at least this output weekly from him. If this is Bruce improving slowly over time then Canales is even better with developing QB's than I thought he was but still too early to tell and we need to see him the rest of the way as he has at very least earned back the starting gig moving forward.
