Position battles... Yum.

RB: D-Lo starts, but J-Stew still gets a lot of carries.

WR: Steve, LaFell, Gettis, Adams, Pilares, everyone else cut unless they can work the special teams.

DT: Edwards & McClain, with a heavy rotation of Fua, Neblett, Kearse

CB: Gamble & Hogan, Cap in nickel, Norman in dime, Butler stays too.

DE: CJ & Hardy, with Alexander rotating

LB: Anderson outside, Beason in the middle, Kuech outside. Davis in the situational setups.

Safeties: I dunno enough about the new guys to judge. All gonna come down to pre-season performance.

QB: Jimmy f*cking Clausen. HELL YEAH.

- Hogan should win the number two corner job as he plays smart.

- McClain will win the 3 tech (Neblett is more of a two technique anyway, so I think he will back up Ron Edwards there)

- Sherrod Martin will still be the free safety. Martin knows his job isn't safe anymore and will fight for it now that it's not being handed to him.

- Silatolu wins the left guard spot and in my opinion he will be the best guard on the roster.

How do we know he plays smart?

I'll call it now....

Godfrey will not be out starting S by the end of the year. The worst tackling S in the NFL since he was drafted.....he isn't going to hang around as a starter long with Rivera. Rivera don't play. All these Ss didn't just come to compete with Martin. Don't put too much stock in Richardson's Martin comment.....it ain't just Martin who needs to be worried

Every year people seem to over value our incoming rookie class. I am not sure why fans think that low round picks (Norman) can just come in and beat out an incumbent CB that has been in the system and has less of a learning curve.

Hogan was a 1st round talent that dropped to the 4th round last year. He is healthy now, and has 1 year knowledge of the system. There is no way that a 5th round pick from a D-1 AA school is going to take his job.

Lets get real.

if beason is healthy enough to start, he'll be the.mlb, IMO.

agreed. we need to keep beason in the middle but i think we'll be doing a lot of things schematicaly that will have him as well as kuechly, TD, anderson, and the other LBs lining up in different places. beason will be the mike much more often than not. he'll be the one with the headset and he'll be the one barking orders.

I am so looking forward to this years training camp. No more Fox-era retuning 20 of 22 starters.

LaFell vs Gettis

Adams vs Pilares

Barnidge vs Brockle

Silaotula vs Pollak

Hangartner vs Bell

Otah vs Campbell

Williams vs Stewart (this isn't the same but still)

Hardy vs Alexander

Fua vs Edwards vs Shirley

McClain vs Kearse

Anderson vs Beason vs Davis vs Kuechly

Hogan vs Norman vs Butler vs Munnerlyn

Godfrey vs Smith

Martin vs Nakamura

This will be the most interesting training camp in years if not ever. And I hope the spirit of all of these competitions will build a fight and finish into the team as a whole.

WR 2- Lafell. Even though I thought Gettis was better than Lafell in their first season. If the Panthers don't rule out Gettis from the get go, I think he might take it from Lafell.

CB 2- Brandon Hogan. I'm not sure if this is going to even be close

CB Nickel- It's gotta be Munnerlyn or Norman. Put Munnerlyn

DT- McClain.... It's political, plus I don't think anyone has the experience to top him. I think Rivera wants to give his third rounder another shot, and he was the best of the two.

I seen one person say that the safety from sf will earn the start. I would not count him out from what I remember he was slated to start last season then got hurt. One thing is for sure there is going to be alot of competions in camp and that's a good thing to have. With the addition of an offseason hopefully there will less injures.

It's a shame Stewart can't start simply because of Deangelo's contract

real shame

      XL is a Lost Cause

      By strato · Posted

      I have been looking for a dropped pass list and all that comes up is QBs. And team stats. When I do receivers I get the passing stats for a handful that threw passes this year.    I wanted to be accurate but anyhow I was looking because thought I remembered reading where T Mac had more drops than XL this year.  One of you many smarter than me people here,I would appreciate it if you know how to pull that up, please do. Thank you.    And yeah I know that isn’t all there is to it I just thought it was interesting.  Of course what the hell is a drop lol.

      XL is a Lost Cause

      I agree with this and I think it's worth mentioning too that Bryce is not consistent on his placement and especially velocity and that in large part is driven by his footwork. We all know XL doesn't have the best hands and I don't know that he can overcome that. Cam always had the heater that just hit your hands and sank into your grip, where Bryce has some that are harder thrown, some soft. Bryce stepping into a pass looks so much different than that hop throw thing he does. I think XL really needs to hit the jugs machine and start learning how to catch all these different touch passes. TMac and Coker don't have these issues. If XL doesn't get some work in he's going to be out of the league in the next couple of years.

      I think most people like XL from a personal standpoint. I don't think he's stupid either. Although if we are being realistic he is lacking in football IQ at this point in time and it cannot be disputed that he has not taken working on his craft seriously at all times given the body of work on the field. It speaks for itself. I myself have defended him at times given the circumstances of our QB room. But he is now in his third year and 25 years old. We are not in a position as a franchise to go around babying anyone especially first round draft picks. He needs to take his position and his football career seriously or he is going to end up selling used cars somewhere. I hope he realizes this and takes an extended break from social media because that mess certainly isn't going to increase his net worth if he ends up out of the league. And these hanger on types will disappear quick too once that money dries up and it surely will eventually. We'll see how he responds.
