Didn’t see this earlier. That’s why Norwell went undrafted and we snagged him. Drills were also why lots of us hated Little after the combine. Maybe you can work with that OL but looking bad in drills should make you a much lower round pick/project (Norwell worked out) not someone for whom you trade first round pick value.

My sons and I got Norwell’s autograph in training camp after the SB. I got him over with an “Andrew” call. Seemed stunned that someone would call him by his first name or even knew his first name. I was pretty good at getting them to come over. Greg didn’t, but smiled and waived when I said we enjoyed seeing him at the local pizza place. It was his Friday night home game tradition and he was pretty much left alone. Got TD over telling him his son beat my youngest, who was there, in the flag football championship (true) and he signed his ball and told him to play better next time. Saw him a bunch at basketball. My son made 4 of 5 free throws to ice a game (he was 8 ) right after TD walked into the gym. He was so excited and asked if TD saw him and I was like yeah of course it was the only game and there wasn’t much else going on while you shot the free throws.

Cool story.  My son played HS basketball with David Thompson's son.  Thompson came to one game, and sat near me.  My son scored about 20 points in the second half and had about 14 boards--Thompson's son was terrible that night, but he did not seem to care.  They barely won the game, when my son hit a 25 foot 3 pointer at the buzzer.  Thompson grabbed me behind my neck and shook my head around a bit---he was excited.  When I told my son, he had to Google David Thompson.  He knew that his teammates' dad was a former college and pro player, but nothing else.

A G would be nice too. If we extend Moton we need 1 T and 3 IOL. It would be good if we don’t have LT blindness like Marty did and our interior still sucks. I’d honestly rather go QB, C/G, C/G knowing we are far more likely to solidify the interior and use the 2022 1st on a T if that may be a better class for 1st rounders. I don’t want to reach on a maybe T if there’s a sure thing G. Our best OL recently had Oher at LT and the 2017 OL was decent as well with speed bump because the IOL was solid. Easier to help out a tackle  when the interior is solid and we have a split RT 

Could play Humphrey at G until Paradis is no longer with us. I think if we did not draft a QB at 8 and went:

R1: Slater/Sewell

R2: Humphrey/Davis

R3: Trade for Darnold or draft Newman

We could roll out a Moton-Humphrey-Paradis-Miller-Slater OL and give whoever our QB is a healthy, young and strong OL.

Thats nice 

But this is honestly like when Drew Lock had the best arm out of the 2019 group that included Daniel Jones, Will Grier, and Ryan Finley.

 

Newman is a Good Project, not aure id want to bank my hopes on him

New Panthers quarterbacks coach Sean Ryan seems to be taking at least some of the responsibility of OC coordinator Joe Brady, who is not attending the Senior Bowl due to COVID-related issue. Ryan previously has coached Matt Stafford and Deshaun Watson, both of who should be on Carolina's radar. Alabama's Mac Jones likely is the only QB here on the team's radar.

    • Its worse because the NFL would never allow all the teams to join the NFC East or something.  There's a firm divisional structure with a salary cap to make it competitive.
    • Practice tweets/news from today (will post videos in the next cpl of posts if there are any worthwhile): K Ryan Fitzgerald now wearing #10. QB Hendon Hooker has #12. WR Dalevon Campbell has #81. RB DeeJay Dallas was in #1 but it's currently a practice-only number as he was playing the part of Jag's RB Travis Etienne on the scout team (his real number is #20). WR Jalen Coker walked out with a compression sleeve on his left leg. Later seen on the bike. LG Damien Lewis not wearing the red practice jersey anymore, should be full go for Thursday. LT Ikem Ekwonu was at practice but not dressed out as he recovers from an appendectomy. Worked out on the sideline with Jalen Coker + RB Jonathon Brooks. WRs Tetairoa McMillan, Xavier Legette, and Hunter Renfrow were all exempt from special teams practice. Likely three starters for Thursday. OT Yosh Nijman got the first looks at LT today. During the post-practice presser, Canales said that there was a lot of good energy today and that offense won the 1-on-1s which included a 40yd throw from Bryce Young to Xavier Legette early to "set the tone" (per Canales). Also stated that Icky is currently day-to-day. Commented on having a training plan for Coker this passed offseason and that he did a great job following it (though the quad issue is one he has had in the past). Renfrow's locker is between Dalton and Hooker (left) and Young (right). Sounds like they're trying to get Renfrow on the same page as the QBs in this offense to replace AT's role as that second set of "QB eyes" on the field. Icky talked about his symptoms that led to his surgery and mentioned that his dad, a physician, was who got him to go. Won't rush himself back, but hasn't ruled out playing Sunday. Renfrow said he had others, but he was either going to play for the Panthers or not at all. Said Bryce called him during the process and that when he was released the team mentioned that the Thielen trade might be coming. Got the news while picking up a trailer at his other job. Also said that Canales told him that he didn't think that he was physically ready yet but wanted him back on the practice squad. The Coker injury changed the calculus.
    • Most things that made it good are already dead, imo. The transfer portal combined with the money makes it all a complete joke. There’s no longer any sense of school pride, at least for me. If my team does well it is in large part because they paid better guys than the next team. When I went to college, I had some basketball players living in the same apartments and they’d show up to parties sometimes. You’d see guys around and they were just normal broke college kids like you. There was comraderie and pride that these guys saw the same school you loved and wanted to be there just like you. All of that is gone. It’s pro sports now, but worse. The players aren’t there long enough to feel like you know the team. No connection, just bragging rights over who has the largest and most affluent donor base.
