8-5-13 Training Camp

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

There's some good stuff coming in early from Steve Smith and Brandon LaFell

Steve Smith

@Panthers: Steve Smith talking to the media. Said the team had a great time at fan fest and appreciated the support. http://t.co/eRviNnEmLW

@jjones9: Steve Smith has been eating organic since 2006. Buys milk from local farm and gets it delivered every Thursday

@jjones9: 89: They can say this or that or he punched a guy or whatever, but they'll never say I didn't work hard

@Panthers: Steve Smith says Armanti Edwards and Brandon LaFell are two guys that made a drastic improvement after putting in extra work this offseason.

@Panthers: Smith also praised the addition of Ted Ginn, saying he'll have a big impact on the #Panthers offense.

@josephperson: #Panthers WR Steve Smith on refs calling ball spin as a taunting penalty this year: "We're working it out."

@josephperson: Smith said he might have to alter his spin. Guessing he meant creating a little distance btwn him and defender before spinning it.

@josephperson: Smith on whether he's lost a step: "What I'm doing at 34, there are GMs hoping and praying they can draft a guy that can do what I'm doing."

@josephperson: Smith also said he tries to drive to Greenville for lunch some days so he can eat organic. ... Eat your vegetables, kids.

@PanthersBryan: WR Steve Smith says emphasis on taunting won't mean end of him spinning ball after catches: "It's still there. I'll just have to alter it."

@PanthersMax: Smith admitted LaFell beat him in competition to see who runs a better stop-7 route. LaFell laughed and confirmed his win upon film review.

@jjones9: Smith said the WRs have been owning the secondary the past 4 practices. If they continue it, "it'll be 11 straight days of tappin' it."

@josephperson: #Panthers WR Steve Smith still going strong at 34.

Brandon LaFell

@Panthers: WR @Blafell1 meets the media. Says he is trying to be the best no.2 receiver he can be. http://t.co/l9lUqGLk6V

@Panthers: Brandon LaFell says if you remove the numbers from every player on the field, you'll still know who 89 is by the way he plays.

@Panthers: LaFell says Armanti Edwards has been one of the best receivers in camp. "It's great to see him come into his own."

@jjones9: LaFell: I love all those guys (WRs), but Armanti has really been pushing me more than anyone else

@PanthersBryan: Brandon LaFell says Steve Smith has pushed him from his first day as a Panther and he thinks now he's "not far" from being a No. 1 receiver.

@PanthersPR: #Panthers 1st & 2nd round draft choices Star Lotulelei and @kk_mr93 w/ @taylorzradio & @marcjames @wfnz http://t.co/TUEv8khe3o

@Panthers: Star Lotulelei meets the press. He joked that fellow Utes Steve Smith and Jordan Gross often make fun of his hair. http://t.co/XCrNpdTDr0

@Panthers: Lotulelei went on to praise the strong leadership that Smith and Gross have provided, making his transition to the NFL easier.

Would love for Lafell to make a huge leap and put our WR worries behind. He's probably the most underrated player on the team.
