I agree. CMC was injured more AFTER he bulked up.  Weight didn't help Cam or Corral.  I don't want him to do anything that might slow him down or reduce his slippery shiftiness. 

To be fair, Corral wasn't that heavy for his size when he got injured. It was just bad luck.

I can't believe Robbie Anderson doesn't get hurt often.  He is very skinny...

I chalk it up to what I saw an old wrestler from the 80s said in an interview once. Everybody has something the wrestler called a bump card, which means everyone can take only so many hits before the body fails and it's different for everyone.

I played Hockey and Football in High School. Played Softball until I was almost 50. Road dirt bikes until I was no longer allowed to. And I never got hurt. But I have very few friends my age that haven't had some sort of injury. So... From my sample size. You are likely to get some form of injury if you hang out with me.

 

I am of the mind that injuries happen. They strike without warning and without provocation. They afflict the good, as well as the evil. And when it's your time? Ain't nothing you can do to stop it. 

 

It's like the Flu. Some folks get it every year. Some folks every so often, and some folks never get it.

I thought that too when I saw some recent video of Bryce. He won't get taller but getting stronger and thicker will help him absorb punishment better.

If he can end up something like a Russell Wilson build he will be good to go.  Now Russ is naturally thicker than Bryce but I don’t think 215-220 is out of the question in 3 or 4 years

Yup. I managed to never have one single knee or ankle injury, sprain anything while playing sports heavily in HS and Division 1 in college. Then I tore my meniscus in my knee just squatting down to pick my kid up. poo just happens

      Draft Week Rumors, Leaks and Media Draftniks Final Mocks

      By Panther53521 · Posted

      After watching Dan for 3 yrs now, I think I understand his plan. It’s a simple plan that should work for the long run.     I saw some of this last yr. Dan wants a vet and a young player at each position. I really think we go OT if one they like there. Moton is aging, Icky will not be back until 27, if ever. We need to get ahead of the tackle problem

      Panthers Sign QB Will Grier

      By ForJimmy · Posted

      You are just stressing too much about these particular positions. You want to upgrade from Bryce and I understand that but you aren’t going to really get that without getting into a bidding war for a QB2 potential QB1 like Willis. You could possibly trade for Mills or the backup for Chicago but they are still gambles and their teams will won’t decent picks.  Again the Eagles thought KP was a capable enough backup to trade for him once their backup was hurt and won a Super Bowl with him as QB2. The point is most teams aren’t rolling with some stud QB2/3 that is going to push even a bottom tier starter. They are better off the building their roster in other areas. The Rams are rolling with Bennett right now as QB2 for example.  The goal is winning absolutely. We overachieved last year even with stumbling into the playoffs. Another year and this staff needs to take the next step in building a team. Will Grier has little to no impact on that….

      Three straight first round WRs is straight up Matt Millen poo. Considering the draft capital we have tied up on Bryce after that trade we would basically have spent damn near all of our draft capital in recent years on QB and WR just to put one of the most anemic passing offenses in the league on the field. Clown show poo.
