Stopped By Rookie Mini-Camp Practice This Morning...

Stopped by rookie mini-camp practice this morning, didn't want the practice itself (tarps were up) but had a chance to meet a few guys on the way in.

Kuechly seems like a very nice guy, bigger in person than I expected.

Silatolu is a wall of muscle. Honestly most of the offensive lineman I've met are just kinda big and sloppy, but not this kid.

Frank Alexander is bigger than I expected as well, was funny watching him come walking across that bridge wearing # 90, if you squinted your eyes for a moment, you could have sworn it was Peppers. He has a very long, athletic build like Peppers.

On the flip side Joe Adams was even smaller than I expected, but that's okay for a guy who's job it is to make people miss.

Edit: here's a pic of the draft hat I had signed by Kuechly, Silatolu, Alexander and Adams.

Rivera is the man. I hope he's as iconic in Charlotte by the time he retires as Belichick may be in Boston. Would love to see him bring a Super Bowl to the Carolinas, just because...

      Gronk is the best TE of all time, but he also played with Brady. Clarke was great, but had Peyton and in an era TE's didn't make crazy money. Kittle is great, but the two times he's made the SB, he was still on his rookie contract for one, and the other the 49ers had Purdy on a cheap rookie deal which help them build the rest of the roster. So again, it's not about not wanting an elite TE, of course it would be nice.  But realistically, in today's NFL, unless that elite TE with a top end TE salary is on a team with a GOAT level QB and/or other serious cap savings (i.e. key players on rookie deals), then I think it's not a good use of cap space.

      This place was the poo pre tepper with tons of hilarious posters like phillyB. Joined in the 2000s during the 07 season and have been here bitching about this team since. but yeah its sadly been dying a slow death, every time I come to this site I am surprised its still up. I think the 2015 season was the absolute peak, the Panthers and this board especially just haven't "felt" the same since then. Igo should really sell the board since he clearly doesn't care anymore. Also, Reddit blows and the Bryce defenders on there need Jesus.

      Guessing the price is too rich here given the injury history.  2024 was brutal and production dropped off in 2025 with a few more injuries (albeit rough qb play).    Don’t really understand the narrative that Young can’t benefit from talented upgrades on offense. Especially here with respect to a tight end. Any QB will benefit from talented receivers that threaten the top of coverage and tight ends with skills to stress zone.    The age and injury history, coupled with what he’s likely asking, just probably means we can better spend that money elsewhere.
