I think hogan wins the #2
Neblett wins the 3 tech
It'll be interesting to see who they keep on the roster at DT...do they keep 6?
Nakamura starts at FS
Silatolu wins the LG spot

[Chaos]

the panthers #2 corner isn't on the roster yet.

Dammit, I hate to see when my wisecrack has already been taken.

- Hogan should win the number two corner job as he plays smart.
- McClain will win the 3 tech (Neblett is more of a two technique anyway, so I think he will back up Ron Edwards there)
- Sherrod Martin will still be the free safety. Martin knows his job isn't safe anymore and will fight for it now that it's not being handed to him.
- Silatolu wins the left guard spot and in my opinion he will be the best guard on the roster.

Way too early to know. Who has seen any of our corners play in the system to be installed by the new DB coach? If we play man versus mostly zone it could change who comes out on top. If we play 1 gap attack style across the board versus the nose playing 2 gap and the 3 technique playing 1 gap it changes who is best equipped to handle it on the defensive line. Last year we installed a defense on the fly and couldn't really put in what we wanted to run. This year we have a whole off-season to develop our scheme. I would caution folks not to make too much of anything that happened last year either good or bad. We will not run the same scheme so what happened last year might or might not apply.

Anybody but Munnerlyn. He gets burned way too much.

Hogan will win the #2 corner spot.

Terrell Mcclain will win the 3 tech spot,

Kuechly will start at Mlb.

Beason will start at Wlb.

if beason is healthy enough to start, he'll be the.mlb, IMO.

[The Original SCP]

Hogan wins #2 CB spot, Captain #3, Norman #4, Butler cut.

DT's will be a rotational thing; Edwards as the starter on one side with McClain/Fua/Kearse/Neblett rotating in at the other.

LaFell easily beats out Gettis for the #2 WR spot, not that that's a big question mark at this point.

Dark horse: D.J. Campbell wins the starting FS job, Martin is cut/traded.

[Smitty Is Our Savior]

Position battles... Yum.

RB: D-Lo starts, but J-Stew still gets a lot of carries.
WR: Steve, LaFell, Gettis, Adams, Pilares, everyone else cut unless they can work the special teams.
DT: Edwards & McClain, with a heavy rotation of Fua, Neblett, Kearse
CB: Gamble & Hogan, Cap in nickel, Norman in dime, Butler stays too.
DE: CJ & Hardy, with Alexander rotating
LB: Anderson outside, Beason in the middle, Kuech outside. Davis in the situational setups.
Safeties: I dunno enough about the new guys to judge. All gonna come down to pre-season performance.
QB: Jimmy f*cking Clausen. HELL YEAH.

[koolkatluke]

As long as Capt doesn't start I'm Happy as heck.

[rodeo]

at 3 technique it will be frank kearse

Sometimes I wonder if people here just repeat the latest football buzz word without knowing what they mean.

Frank Kearse is a nose tackle.
