Yeah. I was just thinking that Briggs and Dansby are guaranteed starters, Bruschi is better in the 3-4 (I wonder if the Panthers would consider going to that…)… yeah.Oh, and your LB FA page still has Na’il Diggs on it, just FYI. Good list to look at though, I’ll have to look at it when I try to figure out what exactly I want the Panthers to do.

The list was meant more as an FYI but some of the players listed are most likely backups if they sign elsewhere. I think the Panthers have their guy in the middle with Beason for a long time. Diggs is fairly solid and Davis is a decent starter too. If any of them was to be considered for replacement, it would be Davis and that might be a stretch unless the team signs one of the big name OLB’s.

The only problem with your list is that you seem to list starters. While someone like Briggs would be nice, the team has Beason in the middle. And while Diggs might not be All-Pro material, he’s a fine starter. No point in going out and adding another starter unless there is little confidence in Diggs (in which case he wouldn’t have been resigned). Just my thoughts though.
