Drayton Florence Cut

[Mr. Scot]

Yeah but if I remember correctly it was thrown right to him and hit him in the chest

 

Pressure - from Kuechly and Short if I remember right - made Flacco throw it, and the receiver made the wrong read.

Flacco got scared when Hardy (IIRC) was bearing down on him and threw it straight to Florence...

I'm not sure I like this move. Our CB position is already thin as it is.

Its funny that Florence is cut everyone pretty much figured he was going to be a starter but all in all this means we arent as bad off in the secondary as we once thought.

Norman, Thomas, Captain, Moore - pretty solid group...

All in all in means Florence isn't good. Which is why he bounces around and can't hang onto a gig even with weak secondaries.

[SuperMan]

I called this in mini camp I said it would be Josh and Josh because there more physical...

 

I also said Florence would be lucky to make the team... just saying.

PFF had him rated as the fourth worst defender on the roster at -3.2 for the preseason. Norman and Thomas both rated positive, +4.1, +0.8 respectively.

Hmmm that makes me wonder. Do we finally have a general manager that includes advanced football metrics when making cuts? I would welcome this change vs Hurney that fell in love with his draft picks.

[KillerKat]

Maybe PFF just knows their poo

[fieryprophet]

Even the INT he got was thrown directly to him and predicated on the receiver running the wrong route plus Kuechly about to the lay the wood on Flacco.

[RelaxImaPro]

He had a cool name.

Just remembered Drayton Florence has been running raffle for two #Panthers season tickets. bit.ly/1a9qfvP Now that he was cut?

 

d'oh!

[R0CKnR0LLA]

d'oh!

 

maybe he can just keep the tickets himself and come watch the games as a fan

This is the same guy who re-signed with the Bills for 3 years in 2011, was cut the following year, signed a 2 year deal with the Broncos in May 2012 and was cut 3 months later, signed with the Lions, then was cut after a year. Don't see why anyone would be surprised he was cut.

[Rules&Regulations]

This one surprised me...yes, it sure did.
