Training Camp Coverage - You Tell Me

Starting Friday I will be attending every practice for a week.

 

I will once again be posting photos in the patent pending daily story time threads as well as conducting player interviews and twittering here and there.

 

So I have a few question for you all.

 

1. What do you look forward to most about training camp coverage

 

2. What do you least enjoy about training camp coverage (tweets, photos, redundant interviews, etc)

 

3. Do you have any particular positional matchup that you find most intriguing

 

4. Who are your dark horse players?

But seriously, you do a great job as it is already in covering TC.  Just keep doing what you normally do every year and keep us up to date with what you think is the most interesting.  I'm sure others will toss out some ideas i'm too lazy to think of right now.

Can't wait to see our new look secondary, Kony Ealy, and 2nd year Big Star.

Greg Olsen:

I think he's going into a breakout season. With a newly fixed WR group, I think Shula will feature Greg Olsen in a variety of ways. He will be Cam's go to receiver.

Dark horse players: Philly Brown, Bene Benwikere, and Carrington Byndom.

Matchup: STAR LOTULELEI vs. AMINI SILATOLU

1. LOVE the camp pics!!! I'll be attending a couple practices next week as well but the pics are always great!

2. Personally I don't like the redundant politically correct interviews....ask them some crazy questions to mix it up haha

3. Really interested In the Chase Blackburn/ AJ Klein battle and of course the chandler/bell scenario....and also if Melvin white takes the next step this year the whole secondary will be interesting to watch

4. Dark horse if you wanna call it that is bene benwikere, super interested to see how he develops, and also Robert Lester, again not really a dark horse as he was productive last year

You do a fantastic job not just with Training Camp but with everything you do for this site in general. Don't change anything.

I do second the pie question though. Once you know a man's favorite pie you know their character.

As far as mashups:

WR- Where is KB getting reps and how does he look? Underwood legit speed guy or camp fodder? Does one of King/McNutt look ready to contribute?

OT: for obvious reasons.

DE: Hows Kony look. Is Hardy in shape and taking his 13 mil serious on the field at least?

RB: Do we have the double trouble of old? How's Stew look? Fresh? And the kid out of Stanford. We know he can pass block but how are his hands and technique?

Josh Norman is my dark horse player. Will Smitty being gone could he be one of those players constantly berratted here and there?

If he could make a jump to play like he does in practice man oh man our already stout D could be that much better.

Well, I most enjoy your incredible photographs and commentary going along with each one.

I would love it if you could throw in some light hearted, offbeat questions instead of just all the same old canned questions.

I'm interested in Bell/Chandler and how Kony Ealy is developing, especially given the Hardy situation.

I think the dark horse is also Bene. Just have a good feeling about him.

Thank you for giving us all the goods J!

2 days until the gloriousness of football returns.....

1. Definitely excited to see some of the great pics you post.

 

2. I agree with most of the guys here in that the interviews can be crazy redundant, but some questions about the team chemistry would be good. 

 

3. The defensive backfield competition and of course O-line and WR battles are what intrigue me this year. Looking forward to seeing how Godfrey performs with moving back to the corner position, if the 'left-handed' theory holds any weight lol, and although we don't have any primadonas (or however you spell that) at the WR position that should make for the best position battle of camp.

 

4. Brenston Bersin, Lyndon Gaydosh, and Josh Norman are my dark horses. Every article I have read that mentions Bersin point out his precise route running and hard work. Gaydosh has peaked my interest since last camp and I'm hoping we've found yet another big hog mollie to add to the best D-line in all of football. And I think this is the year Norman finally puts it all together, it's either now or never and I'm hoping the light bulb has finally decided to turn on with him. 

 

That all being said I have always enjoyed your camp pics and posts. So continue doing things the way you have and you'll have a bunch of satisfied huddlers!

I love the photos. There is not much that I dislike about coverage.

Questions? Anything that can get the player out of cliche mode.

Camp battles I am most interested in will be Nickel, RG, OT, and FB. I'm kind of intrigued by Zordich.

I think Andrew Norwell could be a sleeper at LG and Zordich could emerge as our FB.

Pics are great and daily summaries of camp are my favorite. I don't have time or interest to follow every tweet and I really enjoy your summaries.

      You're assuming just as well.   Morgan and Canales were hired 3 days apart.  I believe it was partially due to their connections in Seattle.  i believe Tepper wanted some familiarity with his GM and HC.  It is so easy to sit back and arm-chair QB over draft picks.  You don't know what the philosophy was going into the 2024 draft.  I believe Canales and Morgan were drafting for the future.  XL and Brooks point to that philosophy. Name me one GM that is 100% on draft picks.  Just one.  You're not going to find one.    I think year one picks weren't for what can you do for me now but Potential.   XL hasn't lived up to the hype of a 1st rounder.  I think we all can agree on that. However, there still is hope he comes around.  What I believe they saw in him was his speed after the catch.  He needs to get more consistent but when he gets the ball you kind of hold your breath just a second because if he gets free, he's gone.  The Brooks pick was a signing for the future, and no one could have guessed he would re-injure the same ACL.  This makes the pick look bad but Dallas was ready to draft him later that same round.  IMO we'll have to see what happens next season before we can call this a bust. Wallace has improved each season and for a third rounder has done well.  Sanders has shown flashes and considering the pick in the 4th round it wasn't a bad pick.  His sophomore season IMO was a little bit more productive.  Smith-Wade has been a good addition and has played well.  For a 5th round pick to get as much playing time as he has.  Most picks below round 3 should take a couple of years to get up to speed.  He's been a decent player.  Crumedy, no comment We turned Barrett into Jackson.  This was an amazing move and basically got a starting CB for a 7th round pick.  Pretty shrewd if you ask me. Coker, maybe the best Free Agent signing of the 2024 draft class. So, in short, you can't say that the draft was a bust.  It isn't a home run but all but one are still on the team and outside of Brooks have made contributions to wins.  2025 draft class has been much better with almost every pick making contributions this season.  Now take Fitterer's two years and compare them to Morgan and tell me that they have the same philosophy.

      Bryce Young is the first Panthers QB to throw for 20+ touchdowns in a season since Cam Newton in 2018.

      He hasn’t led crap, he’s on loaded teams and a piece of the puzzle. And he’s he has improved drastically but it took the ultimate QB whispers in Shanahan and KOC. You put him on this Panther team and he’s back to normal Darnold

      Slavin and Jarvis week to week. Florida cheap shots took out our two best players.  I’d start KK so he can beat the brakes off someone.
