Rookie Minicamp Updates/Tweets


Recommended Posts

Ross' tape is pretty nice for a udfa and his senior experience/playing with an NFL QB in Dak could help the transition. He's going to have to prove he's crafty but he still has more yac potential than Garrett.

Who plays LT behind Kalil if he is injured.  Currently we have nobody but PS guys from last season.  Not a good situation as we discovered last year when we had no one behind Oher.

Oher is at least experienced at LT that even if he's playing RT he could slide over to LT if needed due to injury.  (If he's healthy, but that's a huge if, and that's the problem.)

 

Huddlers are living in Fantasy Land if they believe Oher is beating our Daryl Williams for RT. 

 

Oher will I'll be good depth but his run blocking ability will keep him behind DW

Meanwhile.... TD held his charity event and check out this picture.  Such awesomeness.  Just can't wait to see all 4 on the field at once for the Panthers!

 

I sure hope Pep still has at least one good season left in him. If so, this defense could be special.

[cross-posting this from another thread...]

Here's a look at the post rookie minicamp roster by position, last year and this year, plus a look at the number and % of newly added players at each position during the 2017 offseason to date.

On twitter some folks were shocked we have 10 LBs on our roster.  As you can see, it's par for the course.  Panthers also had 10 LBs on the roster this time last year. 

Biggest difference I see from last year is decrease in # of DTs and TEs.  Those are also among the positions for which we've brought in the least amount of new blood. (NO new TEs, 1 new DT).

WR & OT have the greatest number of newly added players.

    • Oh good lord Interest doesn't mean interest in making a bad trade to take the player, that's why I had such a long post, to accurately describe why those are two different things, but you don't like to listen to that stuff.  Being interested in a player doesn't live in a vacuum. It's very simple... there isn't a #1 draft pick type of grade on any of these QB's, if there was, we'd just take them.  You can't bluff a pick everyone knows you won't make, and trying to trade the pick is the CLEAR signal that you're not taking the QB. Just because the Raiders would have interest, doesn't mean they're going to bail us out of a situation we don't want to be in, they'd be smart about it and just sit put, let us take a non QB as we'd be telling the world we're not taking one just by trying to trade the pick, and then they'd take him at #2 (either with their own pick or by trading less to get that one). Oh, and your point of "if nobody is willing to make the trade, you obviously just take the best QB" is quite literally the dumbest thing I've ever read on here. If nobody is willing to trade up to take the QB, then it's OBVIOUS that the QB isn't worth taking with that pick, so OBVIOUSLY taking the best QB there is just OBVIOUSLY stupid and a bad pick. The moral of it is if there is a QB worth taking, we're taking them and not making the trade.  If there isn't a QB worth taking there, nobody is trading up to #1 to take one, we just showed the NFL how bad of an idea that is 2 years ago, it's really not hard to see. You keep making up this mythical situation where there is a QB who has shown to be worth trading up to #1 for and we'll be able to leverage that into a trade.  But we're the most QB needy team in the league, if we end up with the #1 pick, either we are taking a QB #1 or no QB is going #1 unless we get VERY lucky and two teams in the Top 5 fall in love with one prospect and we can play them off each other and fleece one of them. But again, I can't see that happening, as if there was a QB worthy of that, we're just taking him ourselves.
    • Sanders is with Tom Brady brand and that's his mentor. The Raiders owner was with Sanders taking pics at a Vegas game together.   It doesn't take much to connect the dots that Vegas will be interested in Sanders as their franchise QB. Oh yeah and guess who hasa small ownership stake in the Raiders Tom Brady.   I guess this is just another made up Madden idea by me huh?
    • Bro I don't mind debating you, but did you really have to write all that to get your point across.   This isn't Madden. If you have the #1 pick you literally control your own destiny. If nobody wants to trade which I have a hard time believing they won't then you obviously take the best QB.   I think we will have suitors. If that's Madden then so be it.
