The 1st news on possible Panthers signing

According to scout.com Panthers are looking at DE Marques Douglas.

Might be a good addition if they can get him.

 

Sounds like a 3-4 DE. 6'2'' 290lbs

 

Yeah he can play DE or DT (much like Brayton) at 290 lbs. He had a good season for the Jets and he's from North Carolina so you'd think we would have the upper hand in signing him.

 

from Greensboro
went to Howard
undrafted with the Ravens
chased Nolan to SF, bounced around in 08 and played for the Jets last year

gets sacks occasionally. He was the one who sack-stripped Curtis Painter.

He looks like an ideal left end. Could play inside on 3rd down, since my guess is that the guy we use for that is about to start.

 

Seems like a nice fit Derrick Burgess would also be a nice pick up

 

I wonder what's wrong with brayton.

 

Haven't heard anything from his visit to Seattle. You would think if the Panthers had any interest in retaining him they would have let the agent know before the start of free agency or maybe they did and he is looking for more

 

probably nothing wrong. After playing better at 4-3 end than 3-4 whatever he was that week, he probably thought he earned some extra pay, and we said no.
