I posted on Saturday that Hoover was next. I guess I was right even when I didn't want to be. Wow, this is a clear indication that Richardson is righting whatever wrong he thinks he needs. But... to even put a team on the field next year we still need at least 1 QB, 1WR, and 1DE to at least feel like we can compete. This is my prediction for Carolina:

They will sign Josh McNown again and draft a QB later in the draft

They will sign Torry Holt (Moose reincarnated)

They will sign Marquis Daniels and look for a hometown discount since he and his wife own a business here in Charlotte.

They will then sign a few under the radar folks that won't break the bank and go into next year with a weaker schedule and hope that will be enough to compete at higher level. This may be the first year that not a lot of people around here will be very excited about camp unless you like to see the young people get after it!

It's Josh McCown, btw...

Anywho, I don't see them going for Torry Holt. He is too old and the Panthers are obviously unhappy with the older guys this year. I still believe they'll be looking for a young WR via the draft. They may even like what they saw from Jarrett this year. I don't think the front office cares too much about any of the remaining free agents on the market, unless no other teams are interested or they can just get a heck of a deal.

    • Agreed on the last part. They can’t afford to lose all these games with Martin and Perets. 
    • Yes.  And this converts directly to confidence.  Does the coach have confidence to call a deep dig or seam route?  Does Bryce have confidence in his ability to be the Alpha?  Do his teammates have confidence.  About film--when I see Cam Newton's pre-snap confidence vs. Bryce's, it is night and day.   Film--tells you if the WRs are open (why l love watching the Replay telecasts from the end zone cameras--you can see it.  I have seen 2 WRs open and Bryce's eyes are on the outlet WR or the pass rush. )  You can see progressions, and he has improved a bit--but he is very quick to rush through 1 and 2 and checkdown--that is a lack of confidence in his ability to read the defense.  I had a former NFL TE (Deems Maye) who played QB in high school (not sure about college) tell me that the best QBs read the defense by knowing where everyone will be when the ball is to arrive--not where they are.  I think his QB at the time was Humphries.  He said that Humphries would throw the ball into coverage before the cuts etc.  because he understood DB momentum, zone areas, etc.  and he could just see it.  Said so when people say nobody was open, they are usually right because nobody should be "open" when the QB has the ball--when the ball arrives, everyone should be open.  He said Humphries was never "great" but his skills were limited--from a small school--but his ability to read a defense made him never give up on a route.
