Boulware: All the support I can get is very appreciated. I realize I have to take care of it on my side too though.

 

 

Boulware: I'm trying to pay the bills. Hopefully one day support a family. This is the way I want to do it. This is a huge opportunity

 

Ben Boulware: I'm preparing for this camp in the same way I prepared for the National Championship game.

 

Ben Boulware: "I'm pretty sure I've made Luke made a number of times by annoying him (with questions)."

 

.@Reds fan @benboulware7 is excited to learn from Luke Kuechly and Thomas Davis, "the best in the business." #PanthersCamp

 

 

Boulware says if he gets opportunity to hit Deshaun in Panthers 1st exhibition he's going all in. "I'll give him big hug & kiss after

 

Boulware is hoping to get a shot at former teammate Watson. "At Clemson, we weren't even allowed to breathe on him."

TD says contract talks are ongoing. Says he's excited he's in a position to negotiate. Says they don't have to do that, he's happy they do

 

Davis says he was "extremely irked" that he and Olsen were linked to Dave Gettleman firing.

Thomas Davis: What happened last week does not affect our season. We as players affect our season.

 

 

TD asking the media to first find out what is really happening before putting information out there.

 

 

Davis admits he was very frustrated with people saying he and Olsen were the cause of Gettleman's departure. Says there was respect there.

 

Thomas Davis said Dave Gettleman never said a negative word about his play.

 

DG told TD he'd never seen his play decrease

.@ThomasDavisSDTM wants to play until he can't anymore. "Carolina is my home, and it always will be." #PanthersCamp

 

 

TD said to Gettleman's credit he told him to his face, he didn't see a decline in his play- never seen anything like it from a guy his age.

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
