Carolina Panthers sign Stanford fullback Lee Ward. Ward is listed on the Panthers roster as being 5'11 246lbs. 

 

I noticed him today during one on one pass drills where he looked pretty good catching balls out of the backfield. With Mike Tolbert's roster shot not being a sure thing this season and Richie Brockel being hurt last season, Ward could have an opportunity to showcase his skills and make a case for himself.

Brockel's spot more in jeopardy than Tolbert's imo. Tolbert's been reliable on 3rd downs and in the red zone. It's not a coincidence the offense sank when he went on temporary IR then revived when he got healthy. 1-7-1 without him vs. 6-1 with him.

Hell he probably IS the best fullback in the league when healthy.  He doesn't have a history of injury problems either... poo just happens sometimes.

Dude was as instrumental as anybody to our success in 2013.  Plenty more plays than the ones above and he laid out some pretty big clutch blocks in crucial moments.  That game winning TD pass to Hixon against the Saints for one.  Tolbert chipped the LBer (or safety, can't remember) who had a free run right at Cam just enough to throw him off balance and let Cam get the pass off.

      I don't know where the idea hes a alcoholic comes from. Hes a college kid probably leaving a party and got wasted. doesnt mean he does that every day of his life and if any of you played sports in college you know it would almost be impossible to function that way. classes in the morning, positional meetings maybe 2 a day practices and study if any... like you would be drunk in one of those and it wouldnt go un noticed. That said guy is a starter. i would take him in the 3rd and not look back.. hes not there in the 4th 5th round your not finding starting calilber surefire talent after the 3rd.

      I think Thielen would be fine in a vertical offense where slot play isn't prioritized and essentially is a later read.  In a dink and dunk offense.....the slot is prioritized different.  I don't care what they are selling a disgruntled Johnson.  The X isn't going to be the main target/look for Bryce.  He can only run the slant so many times before defenses sit on it and take that away.  Then what's Bryce going to do over there.
