So who is starting on D next year who is currently on the team?

DE: Charles Johnson

NT: Ron Edwards

UT:

DE: Greg Hardy

SLB: James Anderson

MLB: Jon Beason

WLB:

CB: Chris Gamble

SS: Charles Godfrey

FS:

CB:

That is my vote for returning starters. We will draft a starter on D in the top 10 this year. That leaves three starters we need to find along with depth.

Everything else is up for grabs.

yeah we're basically looking at having to upgrade 4-6 starting spots on defense with no cap space and only 2 early draft picks

given that you'll probably see hardy keep his starting spot. also I wouldn't be surprised to see the panthers FO just crossing their fingers hoping edwards and davis can both return from injury and more or less just leave those positions as is.

there's only so much you can do in one offseason given the situation. we're not in a position to make a run at any decent FAs and it's highly unlikely some 4th-7th round rookie is going to come in and play at a starting level right away

hopefully we hit big on our first two picks, guys come back healthy and we can at least make some positive moves (restructures/cuts) to get our cap space in order for the future.

theres always moves you can make to improve the team i'm just not going to expect some major overhaul of the roster or a huge influx of talent

I honestly don't think the secondary is the big problem. Martin has looked bad and we don't have a particularly strong CB corps but the true problem is we get gashed in the run and the line isn't getting to the QB. I still think the DT position has been a huge problem and the injuries at LB made it glaringly obvious.

Hardy hasn't earnt a starting position?

Adjusted post game stats from ProFootballFocus excluding week 17:

Charles Johnson

10 Sacks

6 Hits

32 Pressures

1 Batted Pass

26 Tackles

26 Defensive Stops

Greg Hardy

4 Sacks

8 Hits

33 Pressures

8 Batted Passes

37 Tackles

29 Defensive Stops

Hardy needs to improve his run play, but I really am confused at why you move Johnson to RE when he was unreal against the run last year.

Comparing the two as pass rushers simply shows that they are just as effective as each other...

Based off of talent, these are the only players who should have a starting spot.

DE - Johnson

SLB - Anderson

MLB - Beason

CB - Gamble

S - Godfrey

I like Hardy, but he's absolutely horrible in sealing the edge and has no discipline when it comes to defending his gap and responsibility. Which means he's a third down pass rushing specialist.

Now based on probability and so forth

You'll see Johnson, Hardy, Edwards, Anderson, Beason, Gamble, Hogan and Godfrey starting.

      Nobody likes moral victories, but...

      By Mr. Scot · Posted

      I don't really like the phrase, "moral victory". I get what's meant by it, but does that mean that if you do the opposite (play poorly but win) it's an immoral victory? 🤔

      Team is looking good for next season

      By ProcessBlue2 · Posted

      I blame Evero because he is overrated. Vance Joseph created the defense in Denver that he took credit for. Wilks ran the ball down his throat and Darnold had a 103.8 rtg.  Last year we were decent in yards allowed, and horrible in everything else. Only reason? We kept giving up good field position.  He's had his choice of players to bring in since his scheme is so "complicated." Maybe he should stop trying to be so fancy like running Cover 4 on 3rd and 1 earlier and focus on fundamentals like tackling. These years of Eric Washington, Phil Snow, and Evero must have gotten you confused on what a real defense looked like. Go back and watch the McDermott and Wilks years- this dude is sofT.

      My Personal Takeaway from This Game vs Cheifs

      By Hoenheim · Posted

      I tried to make it a point in the opening post that I don't think the offense is a finished product. I think we still need more talent at WR, better play calling, catch more consistently, elimate ridiculous penalties,  and be more consistency in scoring points. I'm just saying, they look markedly better than last year imo. They have scored 20 or more in 6 games and 30 or more in 2 games. And that's particularly notable considering they only mustered 10 points and 3 points in first 2 games of this year and they got blanked on 0 points two games in a row to wrap up last season . I'd say that's a market improvement.  I'm not crowning them and saying we have a top 10 offense or anything.  I'm comparing them to themselves in recent history.
