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.

    • I've liked him since his rookie year as a prospect, but when he's been asked to play in a large capacity, he has simply not done well.   He does not really add anything, rather muddies up the room.  Fant is TERRIBLE as a blocker, a pure receiving TE.   Let's just put Tremble aside since he's PUP (although I still like him as a TE2, but yeah he's not our future starter)... Sanders has already shown better receiving skills than a Fant and has a nice ceiling.  Not to mention, he's got in-line run blocking skills.  I really want to see what he's capable of this year.  Also has a year+ experience now in Canales' offense, not to mention legit chemistry with Bryce. And after Sanders, I also imagine our staff is waiting to see how Mitchell Evans looks in camp as he's got the in-line blocking skills.  If he looks fully capable of filling in behind Sanders, then I don't see a need.  Overall, keep an eye out on early August moves.  They are usually soft indicators of how staff's view their rookie late rounders and roster overall.  This is a wait and see what the market presents and how they think their unit looks in camp.  
    • Every team has different needs of the backup QB.   On some teams a young hopeful makes sense and on others an old worn out dude makes sense.  We are a little more in the in-between IMO where you probably would prefer a Fields, Pickett, Howell type IMO.   So a young disappoint that you there is still some hail mary hope in.....given BY essentially was benched both seasons for performance (I know that's not the official line going into Seattle but I think most would agree he got a break and should of been benched later that year).  I know we want Bryce to be the week 17 guy all season this upcoming year.  But it's still in the reasonable thought process that the other dude could show back up. 
    • I wouldn't mind it if they bring him in cheap for competition. I would imagine he would vie for the 3rd TE spot with the rookie.
