Fastest Panther Currently and Sleeper..Marvin Bracy?


Recommended Posts

I haven't seen any thread about it so i decided to go ahead and put this kids name out there. It is more than likely this could be just a blip or even a rookie camp trial thing. But, if he does make it past this stage I think his chances of making atleast the practice squad like Byrd could be promising. Forget CMC speed....I would even chuckle off Samuels being Faster than this kid. We are talking Maybe the fastest player in the league. Bracy was a talented 4 star all-american Wideout entering FSU a few years ago after watching him catch one-handed catches during the all american game I came away drooling at the mouth at the potential he could have for my Seminoles...Sadly before he could get through the summer workouts,The Olympics came calling...Yes this kid right out of highschool was clocking 10.1 times in the hundred yard dash and has been timed as low as 9.93 in the 100 meters.

*UPDATED did a little digging to find the UA Clip.

Insane catch at the UA game. Also cameo from Corn Elder.

Were talking about a kid who in 2012 ran the worlds fastest indoor 55 meter run at 6.08-seconds.os-fsu-kermit-whitfield-cousin-marvin-br

After being all but the slowest team in the NFL I am very excited about all the speed that we are trying to get into our offense. This will make for an exciting camp.

Yall better write this down because this will most likely be the first and only time you hear this name with the Panthers. 

I'm not so certain that's true.

Rivera raved about him after Friday's minicamp. Granted, it's only minicamp, but all we're talking about here is a shot at the training camp roster.

When was the last time that there was speed like this on the squad? Speed to burn!! How are his hands? 

Let this clip show you how good his hands are. I think a lot of people are thinking this is a track guy trying to play football,but this kid was a football player from day 1. But given the choice between 4 years of college and a Rio Invite to turn pro right out highschool not many people would turn that way. Also a cameo of Corn Elder in the video...

Man would I love to see a:

Samuel Byrd Bracy wide out package for straight up verticals, Olsen work the middle and McCaffrey as designated dump off. 

How could one defend this? The safeties would have to play deep or bracket thus leaving one burner. Olsen would outmatch the linebacker. McCaffrey could possibly gain outrageous yards due to all the speed pushing the backend deep and Olsen preoccupying the linebacker. 

There be so much illegal contact by the defense because you do not to be beat deep by the burners. 

 

Just cut CJ2 and let the WR crew be: KB, DF(trade him for a bag of Doritos), Samuel, Shepard, Byrd and Bracy.

 

This team needs to use speed as a trap to set up plays.

This makes me happy as fug...our offense has been slow in all aspects...maybe the FO finally realizes it and willing to address it. SPEED KILLS

KB and Olsen came out with a lot of help from this draft. Defenses now have to respect the speed element which helps them not to be doubled as much and not making Cam force throws.

I may be unhitching myself from the Byrd train as well, and hitching it to Bracy's lol.  I remembered seeing him and hearing about him during the Olympics, but didn't realize we had him until someone tweeted about him yesterday.  The problem historically with the Olympic Track-Hopeful guys is that they mostly only excelled in football because of their speed, but not necessarily any actual football skills.  Even our own Michael Bates was a WR who didn't play WR, lol, he was just so damn fast that he could return kicks (and cover them) like nobody's business.  In Bracy's case, he appears to possibly be the exception to the rule.  He was a 4-star recruit, went to a college football powerhouse as evidence, but then went after his dreams in track...  Regardless, he appears to have some natural football instincts and skills aside from his world-class speed - looks to be a natural hands catcher and his speed translates to the field.  Also, FWIW, IIRC, Voth tweeted yesterday during the practice to keep an eye out on Bracy as a guy to possibly emerge from camp.  I'm hopeful about this guy and stoked about our overall upgrade in the speed category across the board.

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
