How much playing time will Matt Corral get on Saturday?

I said I thought PJ and Corral would get all the snaps.  Had Matt at almost 2 full quarters.  I don't think wanting 4 quarters of Matt Corral is really being that pro Corral.  That's not good development.  Give him hardly no reps in camp and then have him go play a NFL game for 3 quarters out the gate?  Who does that to a 3rd round rookie.  

The Seahawks?

it's preseason game 1.  

I mean, if you gave Sam and Baker 2 series a piece that would mean starters playing into the 2nd quarter?! In preseason game 1.     

Did a single team play their starters for a complete quarter last preseason in the first game?  How many played their starting O at all? 

 

 

Good point. I honestly don't remember anything about last year's preseason, though with only 3 games now I bet starters see some action in game 1 and 2 and none in game 3. Anyone remember what we actually did with the 3 preseason games last year?

starters only played in preseason game 3 last year.  

I don't have a problem w/ Icky or some unproven starters getting some odd reps.  Sam should of been playing last preseason.  He needed any work he could get. But I don't want DJ Moore and the likes out there playing a bunch of preseason games vs backups.

They have plenty of WR's to get a look at. Need to see Saunders do his slot thing against guys that are actually going to hit him before Rhule declares him a starter

CJ Saunders should play in every preseason game.  CJ Saunders isn't DJ Moore or Moton or CMC or Shaq, etc. 

Rivera isn't going to be playing his starting D the first half.

It's also a bit different this year since we have an open competition at QB (allegedly). Last year Sam was the clear cut starter and for some reason Rhule was babying him. Can't really baby Baker and Sam or they won't get enough reps to even compare them. Unless, as hoped, we are already set on Baker. I can't see us sitting them both for 2 games. One of them or both will see some time this weekend.

I mean, I'm just saying what I think happens, not what I want to see. 

Rhule already said he won't play one and not the other.      I just don't see how a HC can risk his starters for that long in preseason game 1 for a fake competition.  Everyone on the team already knows Baker is better.

Baker gets 1 series, maybe 2.

Sam gets 2 series.

Corral plays next up until the 4th Q.

PJ plays the 4th Q.

I like this idea, but Rhule will probably play Sam first and then play baker with the 2s for like a full quarter. 

Then we will see a little bit of Matt and the rest PJ.

    • I like what Freeling brings to the table all around. If he is willing to put in the work he has an opportunity to be one of the better Tackles in the league down the line. Hunter Brazzell and Hecht are all premium additions but development from our staff are the key to unlocking them. Hopefully Lee and Wheatley will provide much needed additional depth to our secondary. Beyond that it's important not to get too caught up in draft grades. Many drafts over the years that turned out to be really good were not fawned over with praise. While some that were ended up being historical duds. Panthers fans ought to know this as well as anyone. In conclusion...
    • Maybe a bit of a homer take but I can't give us a grade lower than A.   Freeling was arguably the best LT prospect in the draft.  His athletic ability is off the chart and at 6'7" that can move.  It was a no brainer pick.   Hunter's key word is Violence. Putting him next to Brown should scare an offensive coordinator. These two give Scourton and Phillips plenty of chances to get one on one opportunities. Brazzell, another tall receiver with sprinter speed.  Our WR room is filled with tall talented WR.  Brazzell is going to give us a WR that can take to roof off the defense.  Basically Jimmy Horn with size. W. Lee III has a nickname of the Blanket. (heard this on the Beleav podcast with J. Stewart)  What a great name.  A great value in the 5th round. Hecht A strong, fast and extremely smart center. Many had him listed as the best center in the draft.  He's most likely a starter sooner than later. Wheatley A good safety in round 5.  Someone who could see playing time.   Kuwatch  I love this pick.  At minimum he will be a key piece on special teams and with some good coaching he'll see some packages where he'll play.  His down piece is he doesn't stay up in the running game.  Good coaching will fix this.  He reminds me a bit of A.J. Klein.   All these picks were great value.  I believe everyone of them were graded higher than the pick we took them.   Dan Morgan is IMO doing a great job turning this team into a good team with great depth.
