Darvin Williams was a beast in college, I hope he can eventually make the team. Burney will make a nice addition to the practice squad as well.

its good to see that we kept Wilson. I thought he was cut for good, I would hate to see us waste draft pick on a guy who couldn't even make the practice squad.

Cam Newton probably still has good chemistry with Darvin Adams since Darvin was his #1 receiver at Auburn. Who knows, maybe Darvin can work his butt off and make the team next year. He just has to give the coaches what they want ... exactly how they want it.

I was thinking the same thing. He also was a top receiver in the SEC the year before Cam. I don't understand why we wouldn't give the kid a chance with the scrubs we have.

Where would he play?

Obviously Smith is going to start over him, and Naanee, who played in the offensive system before and is a veteran, and obviously Armanti is going to play ahead of him because they want to see what he can do. Oh, and LaFell is going to get more snaps, because he has played games in the NFL, and is familiar with the people on the offense. And Ajirotutu (sp?) is going to play because he's one of Chud/Rivera's guys.

So, where exactly does an undrafted rookie fit into that scenario?

      Robert Hunt Practice Window Activated

      By MHS831 · Posted

      It is a tough decision.  There is another factor.  Is he in game shape?  A tired Hunt is not better than an "in-shape" Corbett.  When coming off an injury, it is natural to want to protect the injured area, even if it is completely healed.  This can cause you to contort your body for no reason, lose fundamentals, and it could lead to other injuries.  For example, I had a knee in high school that required getting taped.  That made me aware of the knee (not used to tape on my knee) and I pulled my groin (favoring or dragging the leg with the tape).  The trainer explained the groin injury the way I do here--but scared money makes no money.  If he is cleared to play, he is cleared to play.  Watch him, rotate him in for a series, etc.  Specifically, I would want to watch the matchup--who is winning more--Corbett or Hunt?  How is the defense reacting (if at all) to Hunt being in?  Etc.

      Chad ‘Ochstradamus’ Johnson and Shannon Sharpe on Panthers

      Shannon was sued for $50 million (settled out of court, I believe) for forcing sex on his girlfriend during a two-year relationship.  He denies it, but ESPN let him go last April.  Chad Johnson's wife filed a police report because he head-butted her in a car and was put on probation. I had to google it.  I watched the Ray Rice video and when you see it, you realize just how vile and cowardly abusing a woman really is.  But for the same point Aussie tried to make, these women are defenseless, and being phyiscally bigger and stronger does not validate your actions.   I can't even stand to watch Steve Smith.  I can't normalize this kind of behavior--again, I do not think R-P had that in mind when he posted this.  When the reason was exposed, we should realize that we are talking life (quality of) and death (in some cases) here.

      I can respect the fact that we should not glorify or normalize men who have a history of beating women.  I do not think anyone was thinking of that when they posted this, but if head-butting your wife and unconsensual sex (rape) is something you cannot overlook, I agree with that.  I think they are both half-crazed attention hounds regardless of their pasts.
