We lost so many pieces last year I feel like every player on the defense was a backup. Burns, Luvu, Derrick brown, and Shaq. Need the defense to pick up some major support and I would lean on free agency bc a bunch of rookies will need to be molded and take some time to develop
I totally agree with you. One thing I got to add was look at the Broncos D-line they broke sack records with players people hardly know. Back up or not I think it’s just an effort thing. Trying to make a name for yourself. I don’t care what you do in life you’re not going to allow another person beat in whatever consistently. For the panthers D-line they consistently allowed O-lines to man handle them. I don’t know what goes on in their heads but having your family and the rest of world watching you get man handle every play is crazy. Moral of the story we need some dogs who are hungry and aren’t just here because of money but want to actually win.
For what its worth, my thoughts. 1 Dont sign a big money WR 2 Trade back in the 1st rd, gain more capitol, even more than once. 3 Have Luke Kuechly scour the Earth for his heir, and go get him. 4 Keep an eye on a handful of the "Off the Street Gang" that played in our revolving door of, well, Dudes. We fans need a new hero, plain and simple. Bryce proved me wrong in year 1, the man can take a beating. Year 2 started off like David Carr in his 2nd season, deer in headlights. He looks legit going forward but the D needs more early round attention in my opinion.
I think this will be a defense heavy draft for us. Hopefully we pick up a receiver in free agency then pick defense at least with the first 3 picks of the draft
I feel you........ set the standard. My expectation would be that we are slight-above average next year based on (1). The decision to bring back the DC. Dan Morgan is not just a GM but was THAT LB. I got to think he wants to restore what he was a part of when he played here and if he didn't think Evero had the right scheme/coaching/game management he would move on. I respect his ability to evaluate all of that and balance against what was done by the prior GM (2). If we can get Derek Brown back healthy (anyone heard any update on his progress), resign Ashon and draft a DL I think we are much better against the run than this year, which to me was the death of the defense and how we lost most of the games. I was really excited to see what Derek Brown and Ashon could do with the run support this year, instead Ashon became the Derek Brown Light with no help, same situation Derek Brown was in the year prior (3). Trevin Wallace will have another year and was not ready to play, (think Shaq's first year). With some better DL that should help but I think we will add a LB (4). There are some good safeties in the draft that can make plays. Slight Above Average would mean to me that the defenses is not the consistent reason we lose and can add 4-7 wins in a season through a dominate performance. Love the show!
Sign a Wr and spend all resources to build that defensive depth. Great draft for DL. I got a feeling we might do the Dave G and get a bunch of hog mollies like the draft we got Star and KK.
You not crazy bro, when Bryce young was down and out and people wanted to get another QB. I’m like no QB is fixing this and this horrible defense. Had we stayed terrible and young never came back I wouldn’t have still preferred defense as the main priority.
They need to add 5-6 new starters on defense, if they are high impact players, yes they can fix the defense in one off-season. Go from worst to top 10.
If they can make any rare good decisions, the answer is yes. This is as deep of a draft as there can ever be and particularly on Defense. Upgrades to our roster will be available through pick number 150. Guys who will easily start for us and make an impact go all the way to 100ish. We need to trade down unless Carter or McMillan are available, which is unlikely. Let's trade back as many times as we can and add as many 2 and 3 round picks as possible!!
Dan Morgan had a terrible offseason last year. Trading up for two guys in the 1st and 2nd and not hitting on one of them is a mistake. Giving Lewis and Hunt those large contracts. Amazing! But those large money contracts are the easy part of FA. He missed on almost every other player we picked up. We need to do better this offseason. Still am very optimistic with how we ended the season, buts it’s up to that FO now
@ You’re not wrong. But can’t call him a hit either quite yet. I still have trust issues with the Panthers drafting WRs. We really only have “hit” on like 2 WRs in the draft in the last 20 seasons (Curtis & DJ). So imma always be skeptical when we take someone especially in the 1st&2nd rd…
Realistically Evero should get us top 20 defense respectively. We’ll sign some quality vets and get more talent and depth in the draft. It depends how good the defensive talent is that we bring in but top 20 should be the bar at minimum, if he can’t do that hers needs to get canned by trade deadline.
Me personally, I'd prefer worst to first. However it's only January. No Delulu sippin as of now 😂😂😂 so realistically i can see us getting between 13th and 19th ranked defense next season
No Dunc, it IS NOT time to RAISE expectations regarding the defense. It is time to have them be WHERE THEY SHOULD BE. This team since its inception has been about playing really good defense, hard nosed, run stopping, make you earn every yard, defense.
We need to stop handing out 3-year, $6-8 million deals to one-year starters. Invest in true difference-makers and keep building through the draft. Focus on players who can contribute immediately while still having room to develop.
We coulda got Mikey sanristill instead of j brooks I will say that jb looked good when healthy just messed up he gotta go through this process all over again
@ facts I’m ready for content on the offseason I think it’s gonna be a vital one a make or break offseason . Wanna ask you outside of Abdul carter because he’s low hanging fruit , which edge rusher is just as good a run defender as pass rusher because if we not getting both then we gonna end up with another burns
Why does everyone say the defense gave up the most points like special teams didn’t contribute and turnovers on offense contributed to. Scoop and scored pick 6’s blocked kicks. The defense will be fine when 8 of our starters and top contributors aren’t on IR
@ I don’t think Evero fits the scheme to the talent of the players I think he fits the players to scheme. I don’t think he fully unwinds the full potential of the players on defense bc all the ones that have left since he be here have flourished !!! Name one that hasn’t ???

12:00 Dunc is SICK of y’all 😂😂
lol they pushed me to this 🤣
@ I understand man

some back ups to the back up 😂

naw go rookies were looking to build not contend next year

What up doe!
My dude said walking around like 2 bags o' nuh-uh.
😅😅😅😅😅😅
🤣🤣🤣
Im super optimistic we can get into top 10 defense next year. Lets come back healthy and obtain help where we can in the draft. 🎉

It’s possible but we really got to find some gems 💯
For sure!
I think it’s best to come to this question post draft and free agency to better guess where we will potentially rank as a defense.
Sign a Wr and spend all resources to build that defensive depth. Great draft for DL. I got a feeling we might do the Dave G and get a bunch of hog mollies like the draft we got Star and KK.
"MUST BE BETTER" because Defense Wins Championships

Think it’s too early to call XL a miss

If hell don't freeze and the creek don't rise then yes 😂😂
Lmaooo ain’t heard that in a while
I think they should be in the top 15 in the league next season.
No Dunc, it IS NOT time to RAISE expectations regarding the defense. It is time to have them be WHERE THEY SHOULD BE. This team since its inception has been about playing really good defense, hard nosed, run stopping, make you earn every yard, defense.
Good point!
Strive for top 10. I would ve happy with somewhere around 15-18. Top half of league.
I feel like we need a Nose in free agency, No rookie is going to dominate the 1 gap or zero tech in his first year.
Think we just need a big body to rotate and sign a established vet at NT
Thing is league average defense would have given the Panthers like 5 more wins last season...
Exactly
We need to stop handing out 3-year, $6-8 million deals to one-year starters. Invest in true difference-makers and keep building through the draft. Focus on players who can contribute immediately while still having room to develop.
I agreed wholeheartedly
We coulda got Mikey sanristill instead of j brooks I will say that jb looked good when healthy just messed up he gotta go through this process all over again
Yeah i feel bad for him. Hope he can shake back
@ facts I’m ready for content on the offseason I think it’s gonna be a vital one a make or break offseason . Wanna ask you outside of Abdul carter because he’s low hanging fruit , which edge rusher is just as good a run defender as pass rusher because if we not getting both then we gonna end up with another burns
Our defense should be top 10… we go from 2 bags of 💩💩to 1/2 bag of💩🤣
That’d be LOVELY
Tet is perfect for us
Would love to add him to our WR room
Why does everyone say the defense gave up the most points like special teams didn’t contribute and turnovers on offense contributed to. Scoop and scored pick 6’s blocked kicks. The defense will be fine when 8 of our starters and top contributors aren’t on IR
The starters aren’t good bro
@@UBSportsTalktell them 4 the guys in the back 😂
Defense was not the worst in the league, plus we was hurt.
Check the numbers. You can even check the charts i showed
Top 10-15
Need dat
@ I don’t think Evero fits the scheme to the talent of the players I think he fits the players to scheme. I don’t think he fully unwinds the full potential of the players on defense bc all the ones that have left since he be here have flourished !!! Name one that hasn’t ???
I think carolina will be 14 t h in defense next season
That’s very specific! Lol i wouldn’t be mad
Smell like two bags of 'Uh Uh'.... lol
🤣🤣🤣
Evero needs mental help
Stop drafting injured rookies.
