smitty arrives without cast on

Steve Smith-WR- Panthers Jul. 28 - 9:42 am et

Steve Smith arrived at Panthers' camp without a cast on his broken left arm.

It's a good sign, but Smith hasn't been able to lift weights and it's unknown when he'll be cleared to practice. We're tentatively expecting to see him toward the tail end of the preseason and fully expect him to be ready for Week 1. There is little risk of aggravation even though Smith has now fractured his left arm twice in a year.

of course, who else is going to hold smitty's cactus cooler? :D

Funny you should mention that, as that was the first thing Gantt asked him this morning (since the two showed up within minutes of each other). I think we're going to be hearing about Clausen's response for some time:

"No, I didn't know nothing about no tradition,'' Clausen said. "The only thing that bothers me is when I try to do something right, you all try to turn it negative. I don't feel like that's right.

"I'm trying my best to do the right thing. But it seems like I can't do the right thing because every little thing that I do, you all watch it and try to make a huge deal out of it.''

:eek:

wow, where are the grammar police on that one?! WTF is he talking about? i know he got a little ribbing for bringing smitty some cactus juice, but who was saying it was a bad thing? he seems little bit defensive if you ask me.

    • overall agree on the draft grade as a whole on on each pick, but every time I read (and I have read it more than once) that we "gave up two firsts" for Bryce, I am confused. We gave up the 2024 first, but we swapped 2023 firsts, so we didn't give up anything there. We did give up our former first rounder in DJ, but I don't think thats what you mean as one of the "firsts" we gave up.
    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
