Pugh found a place on the Panthers' radar because he shared similarities with starting safety Charles Godfrey. Like Godfrey, the rookie split time in college between safety and cornerback, and he's expected to contribute at both positions with Carolina.

Since Pugh arrived in town, Godfrey has taken over as his mentor. Godfrey, in his third season out of Iowa, said he's tried to help him learn how to make it in the NFL.

"My ultimate goal is to be a great player," he said. "I want to be known as one of the greatest Panthers to ever come through here."

This is the kind of article I like to see. It's important that, at least, a couple of these late round picks turn into decent players that can provide some depth. I'm really interested to see what guys like Pugh, Gettis, and Hardy can do.

I love his comment. I would rather him has the drive and focus to be great. Rather than him saying...."I hope to be just good enough to stick around on this team for a couple of seasons".

Word. There is nothing wrong with him saying that. He is just saying he want to be the best as in helping them. It's not like he said "I will be the best Panthers than anyone else in franchise history!" as a fact or anything. He seem to have a good chip on his shoulders & will work hard to be a starter or a good backup.

      The Carolina Huddle

      I miss many of the OGs like @ladypanther Zob had a bad off week and came in here to do some mopping and a couple of the 10 year 15k post account he just banned over a silly disagreement, just odd behavior from Zob. A Pessimal deal happened with Lady and others. I tired to find a new forum and could not get around the signing up part...same for discord. Its not perfect here by any means, but I still feel welcomed here for the most part and this place does have the most freedom. I hate how the right vs left BS nearly cooked this place, I still believe in removing the litterbox, toxic as hell and lollolols @ anyone coming into a team forum to talk about pointless politics of the uni party turds.  @Bear Hands you saved this place with your activity. It helped offset the lost of OGs and the knowledgeable that leftd.    It would help for new members and I do get the spammers deals, just got to mod them away and hope opening the door brings in fresh blood.

      That seems about right. No higher than that for a bottom third qb with two years left, including one expensive year. He played well enough last year to show he is startable. It depends on whether other teams thought he has any upside left and whether he's been hindered by coaching and surrounding cast. I think most teams would answer no, but if they thought he could step it up just a little I could see trading a fourth or fifth for a bridge guy/top tier backup.
