James Bradberry is consistent

James Bradberry it has been one of the constants of the Carolina Panthers secondary. Even with the Panthers struggling over the last couple of seasons, he has been able to maintain consistency. That is something that is hard to find in the secondary. Especially when you consider the National Football League is a passing league, that makes his numbers weigh even more.

Consider last season. He had three interceptions as well as 12 pass deflections. He played in 15 games, and his durability was never an issue. The three interceptions were a career-high for him. Two of them came against Tampa Bay on October 13. Ever since he came into the league in 2015, he has been nothing but consistent.

The $15 million price tag is a hefty price to pay. However it is hard to find a good cornerback these days. The NFC South has some of the best receivers in the National Football League. Michael Thomas, Julio Jones, Mike Evans, and Chris Godwin all come to mind. Letting Bradberry go would be a huge blow to the secondary.
