Observer: Panthers confident with young guards Amini Silatolu, Trai Turner



Silatolu, 25, the second-round pick in 2012 from Division II Midwestern State, was limited during OTAs (organized team activities) and minicamp. But he hopes to be full speed for the start of training camp next month.

Silatolu was very specific last week when asked the status of his knee.

“It feels good, probably 98 percent,” he said. “I’ve still got to work on some stuff during this little break.”

Silatolu and Kalil were impressed with how quickly Turner picked up the offense. Kalil said the 6-3, 320-pound Turner has done “an incredible job” transitioning from LSU following his redshirt sophomore season.

“Minicamp and OTAs are meant to sort of overwhelm the young guys and see how well new guys adapt. Especially in this offense, we’re throwing a ton of information at them,” Kalil said. “And he’s done a really good job being able to handle it all.”

“I’m excited about him,” Kalil added. “He’s a great guy. He’s got an incredible work ethic and his football awareness is really good. It’s hard, you’ve got to remind yourself he’s only (21) years old.”

 

 


“They look good, as good as they can look in pajamas,” Kalil said of the guards. “I’m anxious and excited to see how they do when we get full pads on...”

 

 

Thanks for the image, Ryan :unsure:

      The running back situation....

      By strato · Posted

      Basically agree.  He is the one of that bunch that offers upgraded pass catching along with he is supposed to be kind of special.   Then you have the OL and the ideas that if they perform you can have JAG backs and still do well. So okay we could be fine.  But Brooks is important and to me that receiving element sets him apart.  So there sure is something riding on him.     What strikes me as incongruent is people over in Atlanta or those that follow them look at Penix with a third surgery and act like it is no big deal.      And we are on pins and needles over Brooks.  Either they should worry a lot more or we should worry a lot less.

      I usually go a game or two optimist over the consensus here but this is too early for me to say. I need to see some players on the field.  I am not feeling real optimistic though.

      Joe Person Draft Weekend inside info

      Okay as a ‘take CJ’ fan I actually don’t obsess over CJ and Houston, contrary to the narrative.  But I thought I picked up some noise that his OL left a lot to be desired.    Not a single Beyce supporter would judge him harshly if he had a crappy OL. We all know that.    So be fair about it.  A QB needs to be protected.  Especially a guy that gets to his spot and wants to finish the play from there. Which CJ is.
