Ricky Proehl retiring?

I wondered why he wasn't working the E-W game

 

The East-West Shrine Game practices are underway this week, and several Panthers coaches are instructing the prospects down in St. Petersburg, Fla.

Curtis Fuller (defensive backs), Sam Mills III (defensive line) and Chase Blackburn (special teams) are on the East Team coaching staff. Cameron Turner (wide receivers) is coaching for the West Team.

Good.   It was either that or get fired.  

Remember that whole "we're going to evaluate and make adjustments" thing gettleman was talking about? 

I'm thinking Proehl was about to be under the chopping block because of that evaluation.  

 

KB and Funchess havent developed ANY since college.   Ginn is one of Cam's favorite weapons because he's a vet that's already been developed.

    • I tend to look at all of these guys and wonder how committed they are to doing special teams? It's a big deal when you're fighting for roster spots. And we need massive refreshes to all phases of the special teams game. And the idea that four or five of these players could see rotational use outside of special teams would be a win. This team has accumulated quite a bit of dead wood over the last five years and its time to take an axe to some of it. These new fellows have a shot to benefit from that if they can really push. That being said, wow that receivers room is crowded right now. I'm not sure if I was a vet player with more than 2 years experience other than Adam Thielen if I'd be too sure of my future here. Tet is guaranteed a spot, Coker earned his for sure and they aren't done with XL developing yet. That's only two to three spots left for the entire room. It's going to be very competitive and better for Bryce's future, too. Safety and linebacker are the opportunity spots here this season. There's room for the right guy and we may see a starter eventually from one of these UDFAs, either by merit or injury.   
    • Aho and Jarvis just gripping it too tight right now. Relax, play their 200 ft game and the shots will start to find the net. Freddie has been excellent and welcome back Mista Svechnikov. Burns.....well, thank goodness for Slavin.
    • Supposedly he plans on staying in college for all 4 years.
