@SteveReed_AP: WR Armanti Edwards hauls in bomb from Cam and tosses the ball in the crowd. May need some footballs before this is all over today.

@Panthers: P Harris just flipped the ball to Hangartner for a TD on a fake field goal attempt. Geoff tossed the ball into the crowd.
@josephperson: Rookie WR Lamont Bryant beats Darius Butler for TD in 1-on-1 drill.

Very cool.
Always liked DG.
-Kuechly was weak side. Beason Middle. Anderson strong.
-Kuchly and Anderson got the first team nickle snaps. Beason took a few to but mostly Kuechly.
-Thomas Davis watched.
-Josh Norman was first team nickle on the outside with Captain on the slot.
-Josh Norman covered Steve really well on a play or two.
-In 1 on 1 drills the recievers almost always beat the dbs but Captain would grab his guy.....
-Seyji Ajiritutu got first team snaps in 3 reciever sets. Gettis appeared to sit out drills vs. D
-Armanti made himself easy to cover. multiple DBs made plays on him.
- Clausen threw two picks and got booed a little.
-Derek Anderson looked accurate and even ran a little
-This was the Mike Tolbert party. He caught, he ran, he blocked Kuechly out of a play.
-Mike Tolbert took snaps at FB, HB, Single back sets, and moved around in the backfield.
-LaFell looked great.
-Darvin Adams looked bad. Slow and dropped passes.
-Frank Alexander went hard and showed explosion in rushing drills.
-McClain stood out for his explosion in drills as well.
-Fua was pretty quick to.
-Charles Johnson sat out and Applewhite took first team snaps at DE with Hardy
-Nakamura and Martin shared snaps at first team free Safety
-Kuechly picked off Jimmy and took it to the house, Cam ran him down jokingly
-Cam was generous with his time with fans. Goofed around and signed autographs.
-Steve Smith is always generous with his time.
-Great turnout, I thought I'd walk in and get a front row seat, it was packed.
-Players threw balls into the stands to cheers from the fans.
If you guys have any specific questions post em, we can try to answer.
Also Tolbert catches the ball out the backfield like no other. He's going to be a huge mismatch for opposing defenses.
Was he any better in the return game (if there were any punt return drills)?
Darvin Adams is #86 from Auburn, Cam's old teammate.
Joe Adams is #15 from Arkansas, who is the receiver that return punts.
jk. read Joe for some reason.
Joe Adams and Armanti took the punts. It was more or less catching and letting them go into the endzone drills. No real action. Darvin isn't expected to contribute in the return game.
I did not see Hogan out there. I looked for him but didn't notice him. Sometime guys dreads block their nameplates but I didn't notice him.
Looks like Josh Norman has already surpassed him at the nickle spot, and it wont be long until he's the #2 corner.
Capt. belongs in the nickle spot. If Norman pans out Hogan could find himself competing for the 3rd/4th spot..
and Joe didn't take snaps in the 7 on 7s from what I recall. He made a few nice catches in 1 on 1 drills. I was happy with what he did. Looks bigger than i expected.
Hardy does not look 299. He carries it well. Just looks like a big strong guy. Moves well.

Prepare to get brothers of the sunned. They even played the damn commercial inside the stadium, i wanted to boo.
I do think they are overdoing the Brothers of the Sun advertising on the Panthers site. However, that WILL be a great show.
I will be there....tailgating before.
Have a double pitcher blender purchased and ready to plug into the generator......will be mixing up Rum Runners and Margaritas all afternoon long.
