Thanks for posting! I was wondering why there wasn’t a thread! Anyone from the huddle go? Have any observations? I live out of state and so always appreciate getting to read highlights from training camp. It is the Hopeful time of year. 

I think the 7 straight losing seasons, the campaign to reduce fan interest during training camp and the lightspeed stupid decision to start charging for Fan Fest took a toll.

Yea but it's begining to be like the panthers.com bot

The Panthers bot sucked much harder because team propoganda is trash. I consume zero team generated material anymore. Tepper ruined that too.

I mean, be the change you want to see. Throw up a couple of threads based on other content creators. 

It's less an issue with that guy posting the one source than I think it is that Huddle interaction during TC has steadily declined.

The 5 dollars for a ticket is not new and the decision at the time wasn't stupid. I think it was 2015 or 2016 and more people showed up then the stadium could hold with the way they set up fireworks but it was just show up no questions asked like it had always been and that was fine until 70,000 fuging people showed up. Then the next year you had to have a ticket but you could sign up free. They were snagged up and held for ransom and no one showed to fanfest because they didn't want to pay for something that was given away for free. Then they came up with the 5 dollars that I believe is donated to charity. It's not perfect because people still try to resale them but it's far from stupid. We no longer have the demand problem so they could go back to just allowing everyone in for free but as soon as the Panthers are good again they'd have the issue

Bryce threw an absolute perfect pass on a rope from 45 yards out to the end zone and XL dropped it.  It may have been PI but I still think he must get better at reeling those in this year.  

This is one of my biggest worries this year. Just one drop at a critical moment can make or break a season. besides hearing he hits the jugs after practice a week ago, I haven’t heard XL doing anything to get better this offseason. Really hope I’m wrong and he shows out

He has been doing a lot, looks great physically and explosive. There was plenty of videos of him practicing routes and this was a great one. But he needs to get better at catching under duress.

Was the upper bowl closed or unused?  Looks like plenty of empty sets in the lower bowl.

It’s fan fest, people get food and drinks and stuff. You expect everyone to be glued to their seats like it’s the playoffs?

Playoffs??!!! LOLOLOL 

This is Teppers' Panthers. This IS the closest thing we have to the playoffs. The games haven't started yet so we aren't piling up losses. I hope this year is different but a hallmark of the Tepper era has been talking draft by Halloween.

      That's it. How do you feel about this draft class.

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Overall, fine.  Wish we landed a guy to pair with Lloyd but I presume this means they're giving Trevin one final year to put it together (72nd overall 2 years back).  Flashed potential year 1, had a dud last year.   R1: Freeling LT - Great value and a need; landed our new long term LT that could end up starting off the bat.  Icky had a terrible injury and is not playing in his contract year.  Walker is what he is on a 1-year rental, who even knows how he fits. You get premier OTs early if you can find em' and he has what you want.  I thought he could have gone as high as 6/CLE pre-draft, so am a big fan of the selection.  Looking at this class, he's one of the guys at the top that is like "okay that's the LT".  Others have this right/left or G/T type discussion about them.  Freeling is an LT.   R2: Hunter NT - We didn't really have anyone replacing A'Shawn's snaps in our rotation.  Wharton & Brown aren't 3 downers so adding Hunter to the mix fills a big void. I dug deep into S and LB this draft so was a bit to zeroed in - In recognize the value and impact add in the trenches. R3: Brazzell WR - Intriguing.  Given our history, I don't really want to place any expectations here, but a different style weapon for Bryce. I pretty much expect a WR drafted yearly with this regime. Other notables.. Hecht C - These are the type of rounds where starting centers have been found.  We got a starter for this year, but Hecht seems pretty capable and I like it for a long term find.  SOLID AF.  Wheatley S - A pretty well regarded safety prospect.  And we see it every year (like this one) safeties get hyped, people think they may go sooner than expected, and the league reminds them how it rolls.  Plenty of nice safeties have been found in the 4th-6th in recent years.  Big fan of Wheatley. Can't say I know enough about Lee or the others.

      Round 7: The Carolina Panthers select LB Jackson Kuwatch (Miami of Ohio)

      I'm excited. I love situations like this when you could potentially find a diamond in the rough on the cheap. And you know guys like this are gonna put in the work and desire way more than others to be great.
