I can't really get my brain around "Chuck". I do not approve, lol.

I am also amazed that the DL has been one of the units I look at and go "damn those guys come to play every down every week" and feel good about. They were WAY down on my list of units that might not blow this year.

I understand that and they're doing awesome, but I still wana see consistency out of hardy that's all, and a Alexander is awesome, but just getting one more 1st and second rounder to play to their potential would put us over the top is all I'm saying

the Dline is more than good enough.

i would rather us get a 1st round talent at FS or WR.

I find it refreshing in comparison to all the DWill, JStew, RGIII, MJD, A-Rod, PP7...type crap

still it's just odd.

he doesn't look like a chuck to me. i keep on trying to figure out what coach or former player they are talking about.

crap, i actually think of gruden first because he looks like a chuck.

I personally don't like using nicknames. For some reason I prefer using the name given to them by their mothers and fathers or their last name.

I've never made a reference to CJ, the Kraken, and the Edwards "Wall" as members of the Feline D-Line until now.

Please shoot me.

i'm guilty of those. the krakan just seems fitting and is a whole lot more creative than the initial+number stuff and it's not one he gave himself.

CJ just because i'm lazy.

just don't know why it's necessary for everyone to have some cool nickname.

signed,

rayzor

ugh.

Yeah I'd want a FS(or Oline) in the first too, all I was saying was if we somehow got an extra first or second this offseason or during the draft it should be used on a a pass rusher because it would put our pass rush over the top is all I'm saying

Ray Edwards was a simple example of supply and demand...Falcons needed a pass rusher. Charles Johnson was by far the best one on the market. Panthers overpaid to keep him, and he turned out to be a consistent player.

Ray Edwards benefited from playing on one of the best D-Line's in the game at the time. Because of Charles Johnson's deal, Ray Edwards commanded a much higher salary that he wasn't really worth...just because there weren't many other alternatives on the market. Even though it was a small win, I'll take any Panthers victory over the Falcons right now. Keeping CJ away from the Falcons was the right move at any cost.

I just don't quite understood this right here. We paid not only an ascending, young player but also, out priced ATL. But how is he overpaid?

Julius Peppers: 6 years 84 mil.

Mario Williams: 6 years 96 mil.

Charles Johnson: 6 years 76 mil.

Cameron Wake: 5 years 34 mil. (he was paid for being an outside LB at the time)

Elvis Dumervil: 6 years 61.5 mil. (he was paid for being an outside LB at the time)

So we got a statistically better player than those DEs who were paid as DEs, and at a cheaper price.

Charles Johnson is one of the highest paid players not only in the NFL, but in the WORLD.

He's a good player, but he's not THAT good.

      Not Groundbreaking Vid analysis, but I can dig it

      By TD alt · Posted

      There's much of nothing coming out this time of year, but here's a vid that I believe that many fans need to internalize because it speaks to expectations for the 2024 season.    There's nothing really new, but I'd like to point out that one of the few things that I personally learned is that D.J. Wonnum's contract is only guaranteed to the tune of 10 percent. The analyst in the vid is a Vikings guy, and he has seen all of  Wonnum's plays. He says that Wonnum disappears for big stretches, and of course, as a Panthers guy, I couldn't help but think of Brian Burns' disappearing act for stretches as well.  To paraphrase and kind of give my two cents, Panthers fans should be somewhat optimistic about all of the potential on offense (but not crazily so), and be somewhat worried about the pass rush and defensive backfield. We're thin at both, but hopefully we can at least be competitive based on the offensive side of the ball. This is not to say that we won't be better on defense, but being so thin at rush and on the back end, we will be lucky to substantially improve.  One more note is that I believe he's somewhat of a Young apologist, as he didn't really mention Bryce's bad play specifically, taking the position that we just don't know what we have in Young based upon the sh¡t show in 2023.  I could argue the point, but what's the point? We'll have to see what Bryce has got when surrounded by much-improved talent and coaching. Check the vid out; it isn't so long, and though there are multiple reasons to be skeptical about the defensive personnel, last year produced a couple of stats that should indicate that Ej knows what he's doing. Like the analyst said, we'll hopefully do for the defense in the 2025 off-season, what we did for the offense this off-season.

      seems like Necas is acting like a pestilent spoiled brat, we have to sign Drury and this is gumming up the works - also looks like we now have to trade Necas for draft picks or fingers crossed get out of KK's salary

      Was talking about Necas going to Arbitration. Jarvis expected deal is around 6.75x7 unless they do a bridge deal for like 2X5 or so.    so if Jarvis signs his expected deal that leaves around 4m for Drury and Necas.
