Smith would warm up with this person at the back, and they would be talking the entire time--Every time I went to see them.  I was so close, I could almost hear them, but you could tell from facial expressions that they liked each other. 

The other player? John Kasay.

Kasay was instrumental in keeping Smith on the team after Anthony Bright. Oh also him getting pulled over with pills that weren't his but I think I'm the only person that remembers that happening.

This interview was shared a few weeks ago. Idk if this a new clip or it was just missed, but Steve squashes the myth that he was suddenly dropped by the Panthers. Says he asked for a release and even talked to other GMs.

Ummm...

Then what was "blood and guts because of the way they just dropped me like that" all about? I love Steve Smith but damn if that didn't cast a shadow over the entire team for a period of time because of the poo that he said happened.

If you're the only person that remembers, it never happened.

I'm also 31 so I'm guessing I would've been early teens when that happened. Not something I would've paid attention to.

He made Delhomme look better I hate to say it

Didn't need accuracy when your #1 WR was going to mug the DB and jump 10 feet over his head to catch it no matter where it was 

 

No matter what he did ,who he could have helped etc,  his walk off TD against the greatest show on turf will forever ever live in my fondest memories

I used to go watch a few OTAs each year and I noticed that players tend to hang around their buddies when possible during the moments when they could.  They'd warm up together, for example.  Smitty did not seem to have any personal relationships with teammates---except 1, and to me, it was the last person you'd expect.

Smith would warm up with this person at the back, and they would be talking the entire time--Every time I went to see them.  I was so close, I could almost hear them, but you could tell from facial expressions that they liked each other.

He was close with Jake Delhomme as I recall.

      Mike Kaye predicting we trade up in 2nd round

      By ProcessBlue2 · Posted

      We need a Sam Off Ball Backer to pair with Lloyd. Lloyd is a strong Interior Will especially in Pass Coverage- but that is also Trevin Wallace’s archetype. Need a Rozeboom style run stopper. Rodriguez and Allen fit that

      Day 2 Targets/Faves

      By woahfraze · Posted

      There aren’t that many ways to screw Day 2 up.  That’d be them making an obvious reach, or selecting at one of the few positions that we are pretty solid at. Because as excited as we are for the growth and improvement this team is showing, it’s still not an overly talented or deep roster. Honestly, there aren’t really many positions I’d feel bad about. Feelings about Bryce aside (because we are not going to select a QB), it’s really RB (bad positional value) and that’s it. I guess OT too since we grabbed Freeling in Round 1.    While not as high on my wish list as other spots, you can justify WR or TE.     Interior offensive lineman who would likely take over an interior spot either this year (at center) or guard (next for cap casualty of Hunt or Lewis)? Fine by me.   Dlineman? Yes, that’s a highly rotational position and we have zero quality depth.    ILB? Yep, could stand for an upgrade over Wallace.    EDGE? Absolutely wouldn’t hate another option to spell Phillips, Scourton, and Princely.    FS?  Would love to add better coverage skill set to the backend of the defense. Moehrig and Ransom are great in run support but not as good deep. Adding a more traditional FS would allow us to mix and match/run some 3 safety sub packages and or a big nickel type look with a SS down near the line for better run support in possible pass downs.    CB? Could stand to get better at nickel.

      Sounds like Veesaar is entering the draft. He could always test the waters and pull out and return but without him our big men look like a serious liability. Better do something in the portal. If they don't do something about this portal madness my days as a college sports fan are probably numbered. This bullshit of having a nearly entirely new team every season is gonna get old fast.
