Josh Norman?

Recommended Posts

Haven't heard much about Josh Norman this training camp either good or bad other than he on the depth chart with the 2's behind Florence & Munnerlyn. Haven't heard of any impact plays but nothing about him getting beat neither.

Was hoping he would take one of the starting jobs. Munnerlyn has an important part in this team, but I still dread the thought he might be starting on the outside.

Wander if this an indication coaching staff is still strongly considering adding an outside corner after cuts.

Talk to me on gameday. I'm done buying into this camp hype.

He's been keeping pretty tight coverages, Thomas too. Drayton and Captain have actually been pretty impressive at CB thus far in camp. The secondary as a whole, imo, has been stepping up. Mitchell has all but taken the SS spot.

This teams best chance of winning is with Norman on the sidelines. I really don't get the obsession with him other than he's a loud mouth who constantly gets beat. I wouldn't let him cover my food while I go to the restroom.

 

He is the most physically gifted corner we have.  He ran his mouth a lot last year. Reports came out that he was a completely different person when he came in.

 

But being the most gifted corner we have is the obsession around here. There were a few plays last year that Norman made that nobody on the roster now could have made.

 

I know he hasn't lived up to this, but he could be Shermanesque with his given talents

I can't get the bears game out of my head where they ran the same play at him all the way down the field for the win.

And the falcons game that Nak gets so much blame for but people forget it was Norman that got smoked and burned by Roddy on that play.

And call it coincidence but we went 4-0 with him on the bench.

I know the feeling. But he was a 5th round rookie thrown into the mix covering Brandon Marshall, Vincent Jackson, and a couple of other number 1s.

 

I don't get the Bears game, I really don't know. I have no answer for that. And it almost seemed like Norman pulled up on that Roddy play if you watch again.

 

But if you look at this guy and his physical tools, he looks the part of a number 1 and he has made some flashes number 1s make. For a 5th round rookie it is pretty incredible. I don't know if he will start this year, I really don't know if he is going to step up. From reports he has played very well and has seemed to have swallowed his pride. But he is the most physically gifted corner we have. That is the hype. That is why I have been preaching about this dude since day 1, because I just believe he has it. When I watch him it's like Sherman on the brink. But obviously who knows though.

    • Not really. It all depends upon perspective. You can draft quality OTs high every year. They have one of the lowest bust rates by position. DTs, less so, but good ones still come along at a regular clip. With WRs, it's simply best to draft one in the first round if you want a legit play maker. Moreover, WR is going to set you back more than OT or DT at really all statuses, meaning JAG receivers are going to make more than JAG OTs and DTs, and elite receivers will make substantially more than elite OTs or DTs. I would also argue that it's much harder to find a franchise level OT or DT that can have an altering impact upon the game. So, if you don't believe they can, you may as well wait for day 2 or 3. That's why sticking to your board is probably the wisest thing to do. If you're not committed that the value is there, then what are you doing? Lastly, I don't think you should necessarily draft in a vacuum, but you must look at each team from year to year. People want to make them the same, but they're different. You have to start over every year and identify where the strengths and weaknesses are. You can't say, "Well we drafted [so and so] last year or two years ago, so we'll just draft this this year." That's not realistic and it can be highly counterproductive, especially in light of the reason that you should be trying to use FA to set up the draft.
    • If you read through his stuff, he's had a raging hate-boner for the Carolina Panthers the likes of which would make many long-tenured Huddlers blush. Every win was "yeah but" and every loss was "see I told you so".
    • Let me preface this by saying I've read WalterFootball on and off for 20 years. That's an indictment on my decision-making, and it's more than fair to be questioned.  However, the days of reading what's become weak ragebait have drawn to a close after he re-graded the 2025 NFL Draft's first round. He gave T-Mac a C on draft night. What was his re-grade for the NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year?  Carolina Panthers: Tetairoa McMillan, WR, Arizona – C Grade One-Year Grade: C+ Grade Tetairoa McMillan won Offensive Rookie of the Year, but only by default after Emeka Egbuka vanished in the second half of the season. McMillan was good, and was certainly limited by Bryce Young’s mediocrity, but there are still concerns about his work ethic and passion for football. If he doesn’t progress in the coming years, we’ll know why. Original Write-up: Wow, our Panthers source did not pan out for once. Jalon Walker was heavy chalk to go here, but the Panthers decided to draft a No. 1 receiver instead. While this fills a need, I’m concerned with Tetairoa McMillan’s work ethic, which is something you never want to hear from a first-round prospect, especially one who is chosen in the top 10. Bryce Young needs this, and McMillan is talented, but will he give 100 percent at the next level? Also, what about the defense, which was the worst in the NFL last year? https://walterfootball.com/nfldraftgrades2025.php
