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.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      I mean I just don't understand the argument. Baker and Sam both have been pro bowl QBs post their time here. And you just said yourself that is due to him having a damn good roster around him and they are well coached. You're even saying the bad baker is still there somewhere, but he is in a good organization with good roster and coaching that they are getting the best out of him. Why does Baker and Sam get all that benefit of the doubt but when it comes to Bryce it must be a BY9 problem, not an org or team problem?  Hell I got a guy below you arguing with me that Chark/Hurst/Mingo sucked because Bryce wouldn't throw them open. It's ridiculous how far the stretch goes.

      Correct.  It’s really hard to get open in the NFL when opposing defenses gameplan and cheat coverage/routes on all your players because they know your QB can’t make certain throws/plays.   magically no one that comes to Carolina can get open or make plays with the ball in their hands…..it’s like there is one singular common dominator to it all.  BY makes playing defense way too easy.   NFL players are too good to allow one side to cheat coverage and not respect all the potential threats of a route  so you can dial up a great play.  But if corners and safeties just cheat coverage and know X and Y happening on route/threats….getting open gets hard when they just play it one way.  Getting open has a lot to do with the different threats a WR can pose on a given play.

      Kinda depends how you look at it both were 3rd round draft pics.  Nico was nothing before stroud and tank came in with stroud.  If both were on the panthers would young have them doing well and starting or would their stats be low.  I really dont know the answer to that.  None of the panthers wrs have left and did well either but personally i feel neither of nico or tank would do much on the panthers.
