Cypher 38 Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 Quote Panthers signed CB A.J. Bouye, formerly of the Broncos. Bouye turns 30 this summer and still has two games left to serve on a six-game suspension. But when healthy and on the field, he remains an above-average cover corner on the boundary. With Rasul Douglas and Corn Elder off the roster, the Panthers needed a starter opposite Donte Jackson. Troy Pride and Rashaan Melvin will fill those roles with Bouye on suspension Weeks 1-2. Can take Surtain off the board. Sewell/Slater, welcome to Carolina. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
EvilenFroggen 824 Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 I don’t think this signing precludes drafting Surtain. That said, I always assumed we’d take a tackle. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bouye hasn’t been a good player for years now. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I was not impre with him at all I was expecting so much more for I think it was 10-12 million. I still liked the gamble of a 4th on him but it absolutely backfired. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Kiwibrown 5,872 Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 I thought he had already signed. Doesnt move the needle forward that much Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cutler06 245 Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 Doesn't he have to miss time for a PED suspension, or is he done with that ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Texansfan713 1,342 Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 Panthers should get a penalty for signing him, if you get my joke. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
