Jordan Gross, who helped organize and pay for the event along with fellow offensive lineman Travelle Wharton, called the workouts “incredibly successful.”

“We worked a lot on the playbook and we got of lot of work in with installing the new offense,” Gross said Wednesday. “We’re not where we would be if we had coaches working with us, but the guys will be walk away with a good familiarity of the playbook and some of the things we plan to do this season.”

surprised this hasn't been posted.

like he said, I'm sure it's nothing compared to practicing with coaches looking on and directing things, but in a situation such as this, when there's no contact between team and players, any amount of progress you can make is gravy. they're still going to be up against it when the lockout ends anyways.

good to see Gross and Wharton stepping up and providing leadership and setting an example.

Smitty says he is very very impressed with Cam.

Clausen was not mentioned, at any time.

If he were, people on here would say they're just trying to let him down easy. If he wasn't, they look at it like he's not there. I know the guy struggled last year but it's still like he plowed some of your wives or girlfriend or blow-up Zod dolls or something. Give it a rest.

That was actually very funny. While we all have heard about that, it never registered that he didn't ever mention Clausen. I'm not really surprised by this, more of the fact that I didn't think along those lines and I usually do. Good point bro.

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.

      Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.

      Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
