The official camp sleepers thread....

Recommended Posts

Today is the day you predict your training camp sleepers. 

 

To qualify as a sleeper, the player cannot have been on any NFL regular roster at any point in time. 

 

I have listed mine here : http://www.carolinahuddle.com/2016/07/20/carolina-panthers-training-camp-sleepers/

 

But I want to know who yours are so I can keep an eye out next week.

I'm going with the same sleeper pick I had last year, defensive end Arthur Miley. Loved this guys story and work ethic last year. I'd like to know if he has made the leap needed to break out and make the roster. For those of you who don't remember:

Work ethic pays off for Mangham native Miley

One of those moments was in Tharp’s first game as Mangham head coach — on the road at eventual state runner-up OCS. Miley played both ways the whole game, and despite being on the verge of passing out from dehydration, refused to come off the field.

Mangham beat OCS that night 35-24.

“He knew like I did we couldn’t win that game without him,” Tharp said. “We literally carried him back to the field and pumped him full of water and he said, ‘coach I’m ready to go.’”

I almost hesitate to pick Sandland as a sleeper, since he's gotten some big thumbs up so far, but he is a 7th round pick. I'll go further out on the limb and pick another TE in Deaver. He may not make the roster this season, but I think he has potential to come off the PS down the road and contribute.

I'll go way out on the limb and pick Riggsbe at OT. He's not ready for game time yet, but he may improve to a depth worthy/backup role.

    • Let's pause a sec and rewind. The hype for Bryce Young before we drafted him was beyond anything I've seen in a long time. If you're trying to tell me now after all the hoopla about his ability to make those around him better and the comparisons to hall of fame players across different sports leagues that him taking the next step this year fully hinges on Adam Thielen then we're probably already doomed. Thielen is not going to keep any defenses up at night. He has good hands and very low YAC. We have 4 young WR's ahead of him with potential that need crucial development and we certainly need to find out what we have in them sooner rather than later because regardless of what transpires this season the QB room should undoubtedly be getting a hard reset. Those reps need to go to the young WR's regardless. Bryce needs to step up and take ownership of the relationship between himself and his young receivers. That's why we drafted him.
