link:Cam Erving expects to be fully healthy for training camp (panthers.com)


Dealing with injuries, just the offseason, trying to make sure I'm ready to go for the season.

Feels good to be competing for LT.  Nothing is given.  Everyone is competing for everything.  LT is where they told me I'm going to play so.  Looing forward to getting out there and competing.  Good to know what they want me to do, how they see me. In my career I've been labeled a jack of all trades.  Now I'm getting an opportunity to play a position that I feel I can excel at.   There's ups and downs all the time. Feels good to have clarity.

Yes I will be healthy for camp.

Are you the front runner at LT?
To my knowledge, Yes sir.

Feel like I'm fitting in with the olinemen.  No age limit on learning or leadership.  In this room I'm one of the old guys.  We joke around.  

Always a blessing to get paid what you deserve--we call Taylor Franchise around here.  laughs  Taylor brings a lot of leadership, by his play and by being someone to talk to in the locker room.  There's a lot to being a leader and Taylor has done nothing but that.

I feel Sam has elite arm talent and this is his fresh start.  There was a disconnect in Cleveland, KC was a fresh start.  Grew as a player in Dallas going from swing tackle to RT to LT.  I was able to grow through trying year at Dallas.  I had to have a fresh start,  like Sam given an opportunity.

Cameron Erving Focused On Becoming Latest Panthers LT (theriotreport.com)

The No. 19-overall pick in the 2015 NFL Draft, Erving was selected by the Cleveland Browns after starring at left tackle at Florida State, where he was a member of the school’s 2014 National Championship-winning team and was both a First-Team All-American and First-Team All-ACC. There was no way Erving was playing left tackle in Cleveland early on – That job indisputably belonged to future Pro Football Hall of Famer Joe Thomas – 

Erving started at left guard as a rookie, then moved to center the next season before being moved to right tackle. The Browns ultimately gave up on him and traded him to Kansas City where Erving became the starting left guard and also started at left tackle in place of an injured Eric Fisher. One Super Bowl ring later, Erving played all across the Dallas Cowboys offensive line in 2020, ultimately ending up at left tackle due to multiple injuries. 

His career as an NFL player has typecast him as a journeyman, and he also has the advance of time to contend with as he turns 29 in August. At the very least, Erving is getting his wish to play the tackle position, which he has remained the most passionate towards even after playing all across NFL offensive lines.

    • LOL! We have ourselves a funny one over here.  
    • That’s why I love Jake and always will.  He was so fuging gritty and definitely was a gunslinger.  Like a not-quite-poor-man’s Brett Favre.  Like an economy version lol.  He was damn good.  Yeah, he’d throw a pick here or there, but more often than not, I trusted Jake.  He’d make some throws that really made you think, “damn, he’s even better than I thought.”  I loved that he loved to gamble, but more importantly, he gave his guys a fuging chance to make a play.  When people have been criticizing Tet for drops, it pisses me off, because they say it like these are some gimmes that he’s dropping.  but, at about 6’5”, if your whole body is moving one way and you have to stop or slow down to come back to a ball thrown behind you, or low, that poo is not easy.  Bryce isn’t really giving him a chance, and I can see why he’s dropping them.  Versus if you look at this highlight reel of Moose: at about halfway through is when Jake stepped in.  The passes he was throwing are CRAZY.  There’s multiple passes in there where he is throwing across his body while running the opposite way - and he still had the strength to get it on target.  Then there’s the throws where he lasers it in a spot only the receiver could get it - seam routes, out routes, over the top. The longer you watch, the more obvious it is that so many of these (what should be basic) throws are completely absent from our offense with Bryce.  There was a play today where he started to scramble, kept looking, looking, looking, then just threw it into the ground near the receiver.  Let them make a fuging play.  His best pass of the day?  The long one to Tet?  If you re-watch it. About 10-15 yards further downfield, XL smoked his man on a post route.  You get maybe 3 chances at that a game usually, and when you don’t even attempt it when it’s there?  That poo is so demoralizing.  I can’t wait for Bryce’s time here to be fuging over.  If they cut him tomorrow I would feel free.  I would feel like I just won the fuging powerball.  If they signed Heineke, Perkins, White, PJ Walker, or Hooker to start the rest of the year, I would be fuging ecstatic like we just trotted Cam out for the first time.  That how fuging life-sucking Bryce is as the QB.
    • Aren't they about the same size too? Why TF are teams all of sudden drafting these small ass QBs that have an EXTREMELY low hit rate at an already extremely low hit rate position?
