Rookie Camp is this Friday and Saturday.

A first look at the rookies, drafted and undrafted, and also the guys invited to try out.

I remember Kelvin's rookie camp vividly, will be interesting to see how Funchess performs in comparison.

We have a few solid weeks of actual Panthers news until the 6 weeks or so of dead air before training camp.

I'm trying to temper my expectations, but in regards to the offense, you cannot deny that Funchess was drafted into a pretty ideal situation all things considered.

 

He will be working not only with one of the better WR coaches in the NFL in Ricky Proehl, but a savvy veteran in Greg Olsen, and Kelvin Benjamin who at one point was a ROTY candidate last season. Not to mention he will be getting some much needed reps with Cam Newton. Add in the addition of OT Daryl Williams, and there is plenty to smile about moving forward.

Yeah the practices are closed. I'll be there to provide many pics and observations and extended coverage to the all pros.

 

Guessing they'll still have at least a small crowd gather just to watch them walk to the field.

Usually a hand full of folks. Mostly autograph hunters. Always wonder if the items go right to eBay.

 

I got Clausen's for my buddy's teenage daughter back in his rookie year.

 

I've never sold anything like that on eBay.

 

(heck, I've never sold anything at all on eBay)

Funchess has slightly more speed but much less physicality than Benji and, sadly enough, worse hands.

The Huddle needs to temper their enthusiasm for the dude. You're prob gonna have to give him more time than Kelvin.

That being said, I love the insider updates.

      You bring up a good point on the stability part and i would agree that probably will factor into it. But yes, Tepper does have a strong influence on who stays/goes but I still believe ultimately it'is Morgan, Tilis and Canales who will decide.

      I can always count on yout to put things so delicately lol. I'm still not sold on the fact that Tepper will make them keep him if they don't see him as a long term answer.

      holy poo... this thread inspired me to keep trying to guess passwords to various alts I've created over the years and I finally got in! I pretty much accepted my fate as a lurker for the last several months because I could not remember my password. I didn't realize that new users couldn't join either, that explains things. I have been around for years under several different monikers, through the good and bad. I too always find myself coming back here even with all of the new social media options for Panther fan engagement. It's simply nostalgic.   I do get extremely annoyed with the same 5-10 posters shitting on Bryce and complaining about everything. It's unfortunate that half of them are mods and that nobody new can join because now I pretty much just come on here and see Bryce / Panther slander. There is barely any positivity to be had. We all watch this team and hang on this forum for entertainment purposes only. We have no control or say in anything. I used to be such a crazy ass fan that would argue with strangers about Cam newton on the internet and at games. Now, as a father of 3, a business owner and someone with way gnarlier life problems - I like to watch football and talk about football as an escape. Not to bitch more. I really like the direction of the team and will root anyone in a Panthers jersey. I live down the street from the Rams practice facility, Matthew Stafford is currently coaching his daughters flag football team in the same program I coach my sons. I have two highly ranked Rams staff members sons on my team. The way we beat them and had them on the ropes in the playoffs has me feeling amazing, and you would think we have the next great thing in Bryce with the way they all speak of him. I'm gonna ride that high and be a delusional fan, I hope that huddle can stick around or get fixed and perhaps I will get back to posting more now that I can log in again. I will do my best to not get banned. Keep Pounding!
