Training Camp Wrapup - August 10


Jeremy Igo

Recommended Posts

David Newton is just reporting that this is a minor injury. isnt making a big deal of it. what say you Zod? is DN full of poo?

 

I don't think the problem is the severity. I think the problem is that it has been defined (by more than just Zod) as a "lingering" issue. THAT'S what is worrisome.

fozzy did impress. but i dont see how you can say that Reaves had just as good of a game. Reaves was able to gain yards here and there. he fought for yards, even when the OL wasnt helping him. Barner was stuffed on first contacte EVERYTIME he touched the ball

What about the time where Barner trucked the safety and got 8 yards on the play (the longest run besides Joe Webb)? Blame Barner all you want but even Big Mike Tolbert couldn't get through that OLine that night.

That KB pic of him in the air. Wow

 

Jeremy, can you explain why you think Tre won't make it this season?

 

He is a 4th round rookie that has missed some of the OTA's and the first two weeks of training camp completely.

 

I am pulling for him, he seems like a really great dude, but he is way behind.

"Lingering knee injury" is not something I like to hear when talking about a 300+ lbs lineman we're counting on for the season. This furthers my belief that Gettleman is looking everywhere for who might be cut at OT.

I don't know. He had plenty of choices at the start of free agency and didn't bite at all.

You have to think someone better than Garry Williams will become available on the cuts to 53.

I would hope so but they didn't last year. Rebuilding a team takes time and we have dealt with years of a GM using the draft to build the wrong positions.

And if you go back and look at the game most of the time when Barner was stuffed it wasn't just one person. It seemed like the flood gates opened up for the defense. Plus we knew even before we drafted Barner he wasn't going to be a bruiser, that's just not his game. And it's funny because the coaches don't help Barner out at all obviously he's not a between the tackle runner, they don't run plays to get him to the outside.

    • After Bountygate and the information that came out on the Saints owners shielding pedophile priests in New Orleans it will forever be the Saints numero uno for me. FUG THE SAINTS! I hope this is just the beginning of a long term period of suffering for that shitty organization run by even shittier human beings. #2.Pats/Belicheat #3. Falcons (Mike Vick years then Matt Ryan/Julio running it up) Ryan pooping his pants and 28-3 def makes my bad days always better just thinking of those. #4 Pretty much any franchise fan base thats obnoxious Steelers, Eagles, Bills, Jets, Giants, Cowboys, etc.
    • Thank God DM used that #8 pick on a bona fide WR1 and not some bum pass rushing prospect like Stewart or someone else. I believe Tet is legit WR1 material and going forward will be our long term answer at that position since we desperately were in need of one once they traded away DJ Moore.  Tet could possibly end up even being better long term than someone who I respect a ton as a WR in Moore. Evans has been a pleasant surprise and great TE/FB depth piece going forward who could make the most of his opportunities.  Any good offense worth a damn in the NFL has 3 TEs that can do multiple things and being scared by Ian Thomas play for years should makes us all appreciate what Evans is quietly doing as a ROOKIE at one of the hardest positions to learn at the pro level.  Keep cooking DM. This season is not over obviously but seeing some growth out of young talent finally is a breathe of fresh fuggin air for once. 
    • Saw this show up in my new feed. Nice to see a couple of our rookies making it into the top 5 so far, even if it is a pff measure... From https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-top-15-rookies-week-9-2025 ... 4. TE Mitchell Evans, Carolina Panthers (78.7) Evans struggled in the Panthers’ tight win over the Packers, finishing with a 41.8 PFF overall grade — third worst among tight ends this week. He was not targeted in the game and played only one snap in pass protection. He did log 15 run-blocking snaps, and although he earned a 68.9 PFF run-blocking grade in zone looks (seven snaps), his 39.0 mark in gap schemes (second worst for the week) dragged him down to a 46.6 PFF run-blocking grade overall — sixth worst for the week. Despite seeing zero targets over his past two games, Evans still leads the Carolina tight end group with a 74.3 PFF receiving grade. He has caught all nine of his targets for 90 yards, six first downs and two touchdowns. Evans also leads the Panthers’ tight end group in PFF run-blocking grade (72.2). He has recorded a 20.5% positive play rate across 175 snaps.  5. WR Tetairoa McMillan, Carolina Panthers (78.6) McMillan had a better day against the Packers, recording four catches for 46 yards. Most of that production came in the first quarter via two 16-yard catches — one of which he snatched from Carrington Valentine’s hands, who was in perfect position to break up the pass. McMillan accounted for three first downs on the day, although Green Bay was able to limit his impact after the catch, holding him to 0.8 yards after the catch per reception. McMillan now has 41 catches for 558 yards — a top-15 mark. He is also tied for second with 19 explosive gains of 15-plus yards. Three of McMillan’s catches against the Packers came between the numbers, bringing him to 22 for 318 yards and 19 first downs (tied for second most) this season. He owns a 26.1% threat rate and a 76.6 PFF receiving grade between the numbers. He also ranks in the top 10 in explosive gains (10) and yards after the catch per reception (5.5) within that area of the field.
