Jobs that are up for Grab going into camp IMO.

1. #2 CB (Norman, Thomas, Dockerey)

2. SS (Mitchell, Campbell, Lester)

3. RG (Edmund, Hanggertner)

4. RT (Campbell, Bell)

5. #3, #4, #5, and if we carry a #6 WR's. (Adams, Hixon, Gettis, Pilaris, Edwards, Bryant, Ginn)

6. #3 TE (Rosario, Williams)

Who do you think will will win these battles? My picks are

1. Josh Norman

2. Mike Mitchell

3. Hangertner

4. Bell

5. Hixon, Gettis, Ginn, Adams (I'm hoping we find a way to keep Byrant)

6. Rosario

I think out outside corners will end up being both Josh's vs Florence.

Slot corner comes down Moore vs Captain vs the loser of the outside corner competition.

SS I agree with whos battling but might add D.J Moore in that mix too. As far as who wins, no clue yet.

RG is likely still Hagmans job. If love to see Kugzilla take it from tho.

RT- no chance Bell gets best out by Campbell

Receivers. Safest bet is to say Hixon takes over the role Murphy played. Just can't rely in Gettis but he has some talent. I agree with who you have making the roster there assuming Gettis comes back healthy.

TE- I don't think # 2 or 3 is settled yet.

DT- this should be an interesting battle between Dwan and Kawann. Gettleman obviously thinks the rookie has got a decent shot at winning, we shall see.

Good thread btw.. Glad someone wants to talk actual football

The DB battles and the WR are going to be great this season. Not trying to guess who wins out just yet. But I will say I don't think there's even a battle between Bell and Campbell. Campbell will be the backup LT. The battle will be between Bell and Williams. And Bell easily wins that.

My guesses in bold:

1. #2 CB (Norman, Thomas, Dockerey)

2. SS (Mitchell, Campbell, Lester)

3. RG (Edmund, Hanggertner)

4. RT (Campbell, Bell)

5. #3, #4, #5, and if we carry a #6 WR's. (Adams, Hixon, Gettis, Pilaris, Edwards, Bryant, Ginn)

6. #3 TE (Rosario, Williams)

I expect Hixon to be #3. Ginn's pretty much just a returner and Gettis hasn't played in so long who knows what we have in him. I seriously doubt that we go into training camp without signing a vet RG. That is our biggest hole right now but an easy one to fill.

the panthers expect norman to be the number 1 corner.

from rotoworld...

Panthers GM Dave Gettleman said CB Josh Norman came back from his 2012 rookie-year benching as a "different kid."

Norman, the No. 143 pick out of Coastal Carolina last year, started the first 12 games but rode the bench for the final four weeks. Entering the league, Norman had a reputation for "guessing routes," and that's what got him in trouble as a rookie. As it stands right now, he's Carolina's No. 1 corner. The feeling inside the organization is Norman can develop into a top-tier cover man.

If Lamont Bryant is any good, we shouldn't have to "find" a way to keep him. Bryant had better "find" himself. His physical stature is beast like. Assuming that he has good hands, he has had months to get his route running up to snuff. This training camp may not tell if he has what it takes to reach his ceiling from the perspective of his potential, but it should indicate if he has what it takes to be a legit pro.

    • Either way there's some tough teams on the schedule this year, on paper anyways. 
    • Same. I would prefer a MNF game earlier in the season. As if more likely has some significance in case things go south this season. If we perform well enough we could even get another game forced to a Sunday night spot later in the season. 
    • Wanted to jump into this thread. Although I do not post anymore I do look in as there are a few old friends around. Loved hearing some of the names you mentioned.  Another  oldie is NanceUSMC.  He is the one who got me here from the old Observer forum.  Good guy and smart football guy. I have learned a lot from a lot of good Huddlers over the years, Over time. we have sadly lost a few who left this earth too soon.  Anyone who know of someone, it would be nice to try to make a list.  One of the more recent, CosmoGirl,  was someone that kind of hit hard.  Life sucks sometimes. Some of the best times were when we had our own tailgate and could meet up in person.  I think it made us better. Several dedicated volunteers, lead by LiverMush, started setting things up in the wee hours of each gameday morning.  Don't know all those regulars but I remember JakeFlake was one.  For you newbies...each game,  a Huddler (or a group) sponsored the food for each tailgate.  Eating was free but a donation was asked for.  At the end of the year those donations were used to buy bicycles for Toys for Tots.  Over the years Huddlers bought a lot of new bikes for kids for Christmas.  (I am guessing a couple of hundred each year.)  We had a good time getting together, got to make friends in person, and then got to feel like you were doing something good. It was truly a community. I got to meet Dan Morgan at one of our tailgates...he brought pizza from his restaurant.  How many of you remember that?  Glad the restaurant did not make it....lol. Not only have people changed, and come and gone.....but the entire nature and purpose has changed. Nothing lasts forever and we move on but we still like to think about good times. Same reason we take pictures. Want to ask a question I have not seen anyone else mention......who remembers    "The Couch" ?  We have argued, laughed, lived the ups and downs of football and dealt with a little real life along the way.  A thanks to  the Mods who keep this going.  I am sure they sacrifice a lot of their time out of love for the forum and the Panthers. Take care my friends and be well.  I will close with my new favorite quote which I think is greatly needed in these difficult times.
