Decent article I came across. Shows Bradberry's point of view of his role on the team what expectations he has set for himself. I believe he's a true hard worker, and I think he'll come to shape possibly by mid-season. He's got the physical traits, it just comes down to practicing and learning your role in the defense. Read if you must.

Bradberry says he's a different person with a different attitude.

"They've put a lot of weight on my shoulders," said Bradberry, whose team completed a three-day minicamp on Thursday. "There's a lot of veteran guys looking at me to make sure I get all the plays right when I get in the game."

...

"The key thing for me is to stay in the playbook and stay with the game plan," Bradberry said. "I'm trying to come out and show that I'm a starter every day."

Seems to be a problem with the link, at least for me

So, I'm guessing, he just chose 24 because he was kinda hedging his bet (on himself that he'd play up to that kind of high level) and didn't want to see the other two sporting the number. 

I get that he's quiet and all, but it'd be nice if he let just a little bit of swag rub off on him...from somewhere. The greats are supremely confident.

He picked the number because he respects those that wore it, Champ, Revis, Norman et al.

Hes not making a statement or betting on anything, he's just paying homage.

I could care less about swag or personality, as long as he gets along with his teammates and communicates well on the field. Luke doesn't exactly have a lot of "swag", but he just makes plays game in and game out. Far too often, swag gets confused with leadership or talent.

Fug swag. Make plays dammit.

Has yet to play a down in an NFL game, but lacks swag...

      Top 10 worst qb rooms from CBS sports. Panthers number 9

      By 52Beast · Posted

      Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out.

      I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
