Blue chip players

[Verge]

Another reason to not be worried is amount of "Blue Chip" players we have on our roster, blue chip of course meaning, someone who can be argued top 10 in their position within reason, or at least, that is general argument.

 

We have a whopping seven blue chip players, SEVEN. Just for some perspective.

 

Atlanta: 2

New Orleans: 5

Tampa: 3

Denver: 9

Seattle: 8

New England: 4

San Francisco: 8

Packers: 5

 

It is going to be alright, we have a diverse core, CALM DOWN.

No verge no! Our core guys of captain and Mitchell and ginn walked away! We won't win a single game now! Bring me gettlemans head!! Arhhhhhhhhhhhhh I'm irrational and emotional with no foresight whatsoever

I probably could of argued Mitchell, honestly. I could throw Wharton in our blue chip players if I reaaallly wanted to. This is getting silly.

Mitchell and Wharton were very serviceable players but honestly if we sign Ryan Clark I doubt we see any drop in production perhaps a raise in production. Mitchell was a nobody who excelled in our system. But yes this is getting terribly silly

Cam, Olsen, Kalil, Kraken, CJ, Luke...? TD? Star?

[OnlyPantherFaninMaine]

Tampa 3? Doug Martin, V Jax, McCoy, Verner, David, Barron and/or Dashon Goldson, Nicks when healthy which may never happen again. 

[OnlyPantherFaninMaine]

Atlanta 2? Julio, Roddy is still dangerous, Matt Ryan is still arguably top 10, Weatherspoon is more than solid, Trufant had a great rookie year as did Alford. 

[OnlyPantherFaninMaine]

New England 4? Tom Brady, Mayo, Revis, Chandler Jones, Mankins, Gostkowski, McCourty, Vereen, Gronk, Wilfork because he is still on the roster and Browner was just brought in. 

[SOJA]

Cam, Olsen, Kalil, Kraken, CJ, Luke...? TD? Star?

 

 

I'd throw Tolbert in their for FB

[teeray]

As long as our front 7 is back we will be alright

[OnlyPantherFaninMaine]

Packers 5? Rodgers, Cobb, Lacy, Jordy Nelson, Matthews, Tramon Williams...maybe. 5 seems reasonable but they have some good young players on defense including Perry and Jones. 

[LinvilleGorge]

Unfortunately, our blue chip players look like they will be surrounded by buffalo chips. 

[UpstatePanther]

verge be like "swerve"

[OnlyPantherFaninMaine]

Panthers arguable 'blue chip' guys by going the top 10 at position: Cam, Luke, Kalil, Hardy, TD...fringe top 10 guys include CJ, Star, Olsen, and Tolbert. 

 

We have as strong a core as anyone but outside of those 9 we are hurting pretty bad compared to those other teams you listed. The bottom of our 53 man roster has to be amongst the worst in the league after being quite solid last season. 

 

After those 9, who else is really worth writing home about? Short was solid and can definitely be a great player in this league. Amini Silatolu can be great if he reaches his ceiling and gets healthy. Klein was solid in limited time for a rookie. Gano is a beast and Nortman played well for sure. The rest are JAGS and meh. We are really hurting from Hurney's traded picks...those second and first round picks hurt our roster and depth pretty severely I'd be willing to say.
