Brandon Hogan Concedes He's Still Not 100%

Didn't see this anywhere, sorry if it's late. Per Rotoworld.com:

Panthers CB Brandon Hogan concedes he's still not 100 percent recovered from December, 2010 ACL surgery.

"I think I'm right about there. I still have some swelling, some pain sometimes," Hogan said. "But I just try to push through it and see how it feels afterward." Most players have an 8-10 timetable for ACL surgery. It's disconcerting that Hogan is still battling a year and a half later. If healthy by training camp, he's expected to be in the mix for the No. 2 cornerback job.

Thoughts? I really want to see Hogan come out and destroy everyone for the #2 CB spot, but if he's still feeling pain from that then we might be talking about this same issue next offseason.

Could be due to scar tissue flare ups. It's likely he could never feel the way he did before. If it feels strong and sturdy he should push through it like he said. The pain and inflamation could be a problem forever, could possibly be resolved with clean out scope. It could be something that he has to deal with and fight through to play. For his sake I hope not, he's a good guy

Clean up most of the time does the trick. Or it did in my case at least when I had the same problem. Happens to minority a lot.

Who cares? Marty Hurney needs to stop counting on guys with major injuries. You drafted a guy who had to have ACL surgery as if you couldn't have drafted someone who didn't, Mr. Fixer-Upper.

Beason, Hogan, Davis...I fully expect the same injury-plagued year on defense.

Hurney is always relying on an unproven player.......then the poo hits the fan.

it's not like we spent a top-round pick on him. later rounds are when you tend to take flyers... guys that were highly projected but fell for various reasons.

and we're not relying on him, we're asking him to step up. even if he doesnt, and butler doesn't, and we end up with munnerlyn at CB2 again, the return of our linebacking corps and the growth of the defensive line will be a huge step up.

      TNF: Rams/Seahawks

      By UnluckyforSome · Posted

      I think the book has been fairly written on Darnold, and by and large stays true. He can be rattled by pressure, and will lose his composure. If a team can get to him and have something go wrong in the plan, the mistakes and errors will pile up. Rams have a better offense, Seahawks sport a better defense. Should be a good 1.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By Mr. Scot · Posted

      Not a defense of him...an understanding of the problem. (something you seem to be lacking right now) 🙄 Bryce in a Canales offense is not an example of a stylistic mismatch, but I can give you one if that helps. When he was playing for the Panthers, Cam Newton sat under OC's running Coryell type offenses. Newton had a big arm and was a strong runner. He fit into that sort of attack very well. Then he goes to New England, where at the time they were running an Earhardt-Perkins system (similar to WCO In a lot of what they do but very different terminology). The Patriot offenses back then were heavily based on timing and rhythm style passing, not something that Newton was especially well suited for. So he washed out at New England, not because he had poor ability (his abilities had been on display here on a regular basis) but because he didn't fit what they wanted to do with their offense. I always go back to Jeff Garcia as one of the prime examples of this issue. Garcia in a WCO looked like a world beater. Put him in any other scheme though...yikes!  So again, Young's issues here have nothing to do with any failure to mesh with Canales. Hell, is say Canales has actually done pretty well at adapting his system to who he has rather than trying to jam square pegs into round holes. Again, it doesn't take an elite level of football knowledge to get this. It's pretty basic. But if you're not even capable of understanding what the real problem is, how are you going to know you to find the right solution? 🤔
