Last year's Captains were Christian McCaffrey, Baker Mayfield, Taylor Moton, Shaq Thompson, Jeremy Chinn, Brian Burns, Donte Jackson and J.J. Jansen

 

I would think those returning keep their Cs. McCaffrey and Mayfield are the only ones gone and I would bet $ on them being replaced by Young and Thielen.

Thank you for changing it for me! I feel like with that Cam team there was already so much leadership this team is a blank canvas and has a void that needs to be filled I think Bryce has done that 

Agreed. Can't use Cam as a precedent because he walked into a much more established situation.

Much younger team overall and Young is a very different style of leadership than Cam. Both very good, but very different.

Cam was the guy you looked at on the field for inspiration and made you feel you could do anything, but outside of ganes he was a kid having fun and that fun was infectious. Everything about him was infectious. He was the guy you wanted getting you hyped up on game day and the guy you wanted leading you out of the tunnel.

Young is the guy that sets the tone in practice. You know he's the guy who comes in absolutely prepared and you look to him because he knows what is going on and you know he's going on to use that knowledge to help you get hwe you need to be and together you're going to make big things happen.

Seriously it wouldn't surprise me to see him made captain, but if he isn't, its a matter of him paying his dues.

I cannot see Bryce being voted a team captain without actually playing his first NFL game.  He will earn it, not be handed it, if he's voted captain

I think it's possible.

He's the kind of guy I could see the players following.

I would prefer he not be made a captain his first year. If things go as hoped, he will be one the remainder of his career. 

I'll admit I'm biased I want to see another Panther with that gold C it just looks so damn good

Agreed. This is what Cam talked about regarding Young. Cam basically said the moment Young steps in the rest are going to step in right behind him. He's got that kind of presence and personality that people just gravitate abd listen to. It's lowkey, but it's definitely there and effective.

I know a few are saying that they hope he doesn't get the C until he's got a year or so under his belt, but if this is the guy that the players say they want as captain, who are we to say otherwise?

It's going to be interesting to see how it shakes out.

Was thinking Thielen as well, vet respect. Cam wasn't captain his first year right? I guess teams also didn't have 8 captains back then, 8 seems to kinda devalue the patch to me

I am exaggerating for clarity but BY strikes me as an “old soul” type of person with a modern day Ward Clever (some of you may have to consult the Google for that reference) vibe. Point is, maybe not day one, but I could see guys going to him about football and non football stuff cause he seems like such a level headed and thoughtful dude. 
 

If they vote him to be a captain it’s because they have taken to him quickly.  Not going to freak out if it doesn’t happen but would not be surprised if it happens sooner than later.

I agree here tbh, 6 of the 8 captains from last year returned so it’d be surprising to see any of them not get their patch again. 
 

Lately there’s been a little trend of the #1 overall QB’s ending up as captains their first year. I know T-Law was one and I think Burrow was too. Of course every situation is different, but with Chark saying Bryce has the respect of the locker room already, I can definitely see him being a captain year 1.

I feel like the other vacant one will either be Thielen or maybe another O-linemen like Boze as the center.

      Monday practice tweets

      I know it's only been training camp and one preseason game, but I think T-Mac has already shown his floor to be exactly what I said about him in the pre-draft process. That his floor if he never improves his game, is as one of the best #2 WRs in the NFL, if not even still a low end #1 (i.e. a 25th-ish best WR in the league). I think it's safe to say he's already established himself as our #1, and there are only a small handful of teams in the league where I don't think he'd be their starting #2 WR in Week 1. Bengals (Higgins), Dolphins (Waddle), Eagles (Smith), Bucs (Godwin if healthy), Rams (Adams) are really the only teams where I think he'd be the #3 as a rookie in Week 1.  A few others like the Lions (Williams), Bears (Odunze), Seahawks (Kupp), Commanders (Deebo), where he'd be the 2b to start the season, just because they're vets and/or already have a year or two of experience with their team/QB. And even having said that, I think by year 2, he's better than every one of those players (And no, I'm not saying he's already going to be better than a prime version of Adams, just whatever he'll be at 33 next year), and same goes for Kupp, but that's more because it seems like his body might be quitting on him in a way that hasn't happened to Adams (yet).

      Well to be fair, Horn not practicing right now to let his stitches heal up from a car accident isn't something that should be concerning.  Sure, you don't want him missing practice leading into the season, but it's one that once healed, won't have lingering affects or fear of re-injuring it, it was just bad luck.

      Austin named starting center

      By UnluckyforSome · Posted

      Quality backups are absolutely important. This franchise has been plagued with depth problems. That said, there is a little bit of dismay that Mays can't beat out a 1-legged man, and all the talk going into the off-season was how BC would certainly be gone since he had position versatility.  In the end, it doesn't matter too awfully much, as I would be shocked to no end if Corbett makes it through the season. We know what we have in reserve, and that should surely be better than trying to sign random fat guys mid season to try and take over.
