On The Set: Breaking Down Butler


WUnderhill

Recommended Posts

 

New video from the Panthers media team talking about our 1st round draft pick. It seems like the strengths they talk about are at odds with reports of his training camp performance on this site, especially hand placement and keeping a low center of gravity. Any further insight from those attending? I was hoping he would show out better so far, but I'm sure our coaches will turn him into a beast sooner or later.

This kid will be a player. He just needs reps and coaching.

He's been getting beat so far because of the learning curve, they've only had 3 days in pads. i have no doubt that this kid will be a bad a$$ this season!

Thanks for sharing. <3

Gotta remember these people work for the Panthers so they are inherently bias towards the players and more than likely see all them on a weekly basis. 

Hot takes from people working for the Observer and the CH Archon are not paid by the Panthers and their job is to give an honest, unbiased assessment. Although there is still some inherent bias, I think Jeremy does a great job of telling it how it is while always shining a positive light on the Panthers.

OK, they work for the Panthers. What are they wrong about though? There is no doubt that Butler has the tangibles, as they say in the video. It's only a matter of time before he starts making plays.

As I recall Star didn't look too hot his rookie year of Training Camp either but I remember the immediate impact he made. The first game against Seattle in the very first series Star absolutely blew up the center and put pressure on Wilson, he was a disruptive force that entire game.

So until I see Butler in action against the competition I take what he does in Training Camp with a grain of salt. He's a rookie so he will flash and he will make mistakes but I expect him to be a absolute monster

    • In your opinion. What do you think Moton's true value in contract, dollars and guarantees? If we had not extended him, what is your plan for RT in 27 and 28? How important are good offensive linemen for our current offense? How much value do you put on protecting Bryce at this stage of his career? How difficult in general do you think finding above average tackles in the NFL is?
    • The Falcons have 2 significant offensive line injuries to start the 2025 season. Right tackle Kaleb Mcgary (who is the blindside protector for Penix since he is left-handed) is going to miss significant time, and it's looking more like it may be all season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-expect-kaleb-mcgary-to-miss-significant-time https://x.com/BKsquared7/status/1959285822236107013. Also, the top backup and swing tackle, Storm Norton (cool name BTW) is having ankle surgery and may miss half the season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-ot-storm-norton-out-6-8-weeks-after-ankle-surgery I don't root for injuries, but its also hard to be too sympathetic given how badly injuries have hit us in recent years. We definitely need to get that W in week 3 for our home opener at BOA. Despite our collective frustration at not being able to attend TC and then having boring preseason games, ultimately the most important objective of the preseason is to enter Week1 healthy, and we have at least done that. Hopefully the depth we think we have at Oline either shines through or isn't needed. Many other teams are in a bad spot with their offensive lines before the season even starts. For once, we aren't in that situation.
    • That roster was billed as a super smart and strong unit for a young QB….until he sucked though.   it didn’t have superstars but it had proven vets that checked well all the safe boxes and it was universally agreed the Panthers were putting him into position to succeed. BY just doesn’t fit a traditional O because he isn’t built like a traditional QB.  And he still doesn’t.   CJ Stroud would have had more success here than Bryce with that cast.   CJ just has the tools that fit the NFL more easily.  Young can find success but I have always argued it would take a Bryce centric plan (which we have never attempted IMO)
