Thanks to Eddy for his contributions, but his clutch kick misses and inability to be trusted with 53+ yarders doesn't warrant security or an extension...  especially when you have a rookie in camp who isn't missing anything and nailing kicks from 60 on the regular. 

I honestly wish they would just tell Eddy to kick rocks prior to camp so we can move on.

I'm guessing they are already planning on cutting him, but you keep him around in camp to "compete" with the rookie, but in reality it's just to keep the rookie hungry and for him to hopefully learn some things from the vet.  We're not contenders this year, no reason to pay good money to a vet who isn't elite when you have a rookie with real potential.  

Worst case scenario is he has a bad year and we're looking for a new kicker next year, but best case scenario is he becomes a stud with that big leg of his and is our kicker for the next decade plus.

Eddy isn't our franchise kicker for the next 10 years, there's no reason to go with him and I'm sure the staff already knows it.

      33rd Team article: It's time to rethink Bryce Young's expectations

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      In the same order I listed it. 1. Fix the talent evaluation 2. Use that better evaluation to build an NFL caliber roster 3. Continue to build depth and plan to replace key people as they age out and price out.    Those are the cornerstones of building long term success in terms of roster makeup. Even at times in our history when we got Step 1 correct and then did a decent job of Step 2, we have never been able to maintain Step 3 for various FO and coaching/on field reasons. This is essentially what Richardson was trying to do with the thought of emulating the Steelers. Our execution has just been horrible. And we don't need to hit HR after HR at any of those steps, we just need to get more right than wrong. And you need to get the critical elements correct(core players, coaches, etc). Once that starts to go sideways, the whole thing falls apart and we are back to the boom and bust cycle.   As far as what we as fans can do? Nothing but watch. We the franchise, well they already think they are doing these things. I heartily disagree so we will see what happens.

      2024 Carolina Panthers record prediction

      I really liked XL.  But I'm not expecting much from him this year given he is paired with Bryce.  I just think for XL to shine with his talents.....he needs a downfield gambler.  I think Brooks will slowly be brought along and we don't see his debut until in season.     That's our top 3 rounds...and really where you would be looking for rookie impact.  Rest should more than likely be developmental and have minimal impact.  So I expect fans to get down on our draft picks early.  I think the G play could get praise but C being such a wildcard (as well as Canales' run game) has that as not the lock I think some have it has.  Plus, I think Bryce simply can make the OL look bad given his size the problem he has in so many traditional settings/placement in the pocket.

      Okay so when is that changing? How does it change, and how do we operate in the meantime?
