Dave Canales says rookie TE Ja'Tavion Sanders will start vs. the Saints. Points out he's been practicing with the 1's for a while, so excited to see Sanders and Jordan Matthews on the field.

If he looks good, I imagine he could stick moving forward.  

Looks like it's Sanders in 11, Sanders-Matthews in 12 personnel.  

And I mean, he looked good in preseason.  Passed the eye test.  Don't forget, he produced super well in a loaded receiving room with Worthy, AD Mitchell, & Wittingham. 

Exciting to see; this is the opposite of what we're used to with a rookie being given a big shot from the onset.

Our third and fourth rounders could prove to be the strength of this draft. Hope not-but if our first two picks reach their potential, it could be the first layer of the foundation.

And the best running back in college football--of course, if you defend the 3 WRs and focus on Brooks, his success could have been because he was not the first, second, third, or fourth concern.  We shall see.

Idk if this is going to work but just seeing a young promising TE getting the starting nod immediately is a breath of fresh air from previous years. Folks who were here for Rivera know what I mean.

Also I think this situation points toward a lot of upcoming involvement from Legette maybe not game 1 but definitely as the first stretch of the season progresses.

      Xavier Legette for Cole Kmet Straight Up.

      Watching games this year again and Bryce missed a wide open XL many times and some of them were in the endzone. I get the kid has mental lapses and hasn't broke out yet, but this is year three on a rookie deal! Cutting bait now is too early. If he hasn't gained anymore trust from his QB, posted any highlights, little production, or outright gets beat out then we can talk movement.

      Samesies   I truly may just cash completely out of Panther football if we give him a long term deal that isnt necessary.  I have watched NFL for 50 years now and I can without a shadow of a doubt say you cannot win consistently with BY.  Way too many limitations to deal with.   I may come back around in 3 years when the inevitable happens and all parties are either cut and/or fired.  Giving him a deal before this season so you hopefully can get him cheaper in case he "blows up" or if you truly believe that he will has to be the most moronic decision a gm can make when the evidence is laid before you with different players

      This is the one! I was at that game and all KB had to do was lay down on the corner after the pick or make an obvious tag while he was down. He had already ran a lazy route. Then if Cam would've just walked to the sideline like most elite QBs instead of trying to make the tackle.  A lot of people bring up the TJ Watt hit, but he just reaggravated a bunch of scar tissue from that play. And every Cam hater said that the running did him in and it was a dive tackle attempt on an interception that initially began the shoulder deterioration. He still went to New England later and would've got them in the playoffs had their A team not sat out the covid year. We quit on him too early. But hey how good was Teddy? Am I right?
