Thursday update: Home sweet home

The Panthers wrapped up their first back-at-home practice Thursday, with a few more bodies on the field than they closed training camp with.

CBs Chris Gamble and Richard Marshall were back from their excused absences that kept them from enjoying the last day in Spartanburg, while DTs Ed Johnson and Louis Leonard also returned.

Only eight players were held out: DE Tyler Brayton, LBs Quinton Culberson and Jamar Williams, SSs Sherrod Martin and Aaron Francisco and WR Trent Guy, along with the physically unable to perform duo of Thomas Davis and Jeff Otah.

Guy has apparently aggravated an earlier hamstring strain, which is a shame for the undrafted rookie, who has turned heads when he's been able to be on the field.

WRs Steve Smith and Charly Martin were limited, along with RB Jonathan Stewart.

Since they're back in regular season mode, there's a ceiling on what we can tell you about practice (the veil of secrecy has been dropped), which is why this report is thinner than past versions.

Panthers coach John Fox did say that as usual, starters will play about a half Saturday against the Jets. That's his norm, and they'll go into the third quarter the following week against Tennessee.

What is the concensus on when Otah will come off of the PUP list. Any ideas yet?

Yeah, well with a questionable knee on a guy that big, he need not be performing until it's absolutely necessary.

And I got it. LOL

      Not in same league. Caldwell just hit a 10.00 on the RAS. 2nd out of 3830 from 1987 onward.  https://x.com/MathBomb/status/2027885023387349047 Yeah I mean Louis had a sub 9.00 RAS. Still very very good, no doubt. Louis is small, no 2 ways about it. He is likely a sub package lb in nickel packages or specialized WLB. Be fine ST gunner to start for sure. 6 foot flat and 220lb is pushing it for a starting LB. At 10 to 20lbs less than the other LBs he'd better be closer to the top in most timed drills. He's gonna be challenged when some of the wrs in the class can matchup bigger stronger faster, much less TE in the run game.  Yeah instinct matter and he has them, but that size is a massive red flag compared to many of the other LBS in this class.    Rodriguez is the LB that really climbed this week from a pure grit guy to great flash with athleticism people wrote off cause he was a QB at first at UVA. 18.4mph in the backpedal. Production the last 2 years were great. I'd be thrilled with him as the future mike.   Hill likely moved out of 51 and into the top 45 picks ( Ravens at 45 I can't imagine don't bite if he makes it there). Honestly Hill imo is a 1st rounder and I'd be ok with him as he fits the MLB we have missed the last few years. People would crow it's a reach but he's top 30 all-time I'm RAS for a LB at 9.9+ . Plus he was big time in big games when he was healthy. And that br a big check: meds.

      Miller, Melo, Coby, Moose, and Bridges all on the floor at the same time must be a nightmare for defenses lol. Switch one out for Kon and still a nightmare. Coby really does bring a true 6th man value and looks like he could start if Melo was out after only a few games of getting his feet wet.

      Well I guess he should stop playing football. This was his defining moment and chance to prove he was generational and he failed. What a waste of football life..
