Anyone catch Cam's presser today? If not its worth a watch. Definitely starting to see the maturity from this guy. Opened the presser with a statement about today's practice. Good to see him embracing his role as a leader of this team.

recap?

 

--Started with a statement before any questions. Said this team is practicing with great intensity. The leaders are leading, they know they are 0-2 and they want the fans to still be in it. That they haven't given up. Understands the circumstances of the loss and there is no reason to dwell on it. Just keep working hard.

 

--Wants to go into the bye week with a boost of morale.

 

--Stupid reporter asks if he has to prove himself as a leader; Cam says he doesn't have to prove anything to them. (said i don't mean to be disrespectful but there are bigger "fish in the sea.") anything that happens in this room is irrelevant all that matters is on the field.

 

-- Wants to do everything he can to make sure this team is 1-2 by the bye week. Stressed having a resilient attitude.

 

--Thinks he is a better qb now than he was last season, but the wins need happen.

 

--Said he went through some phases his first two years of learning to be a leader.

 

--Reporter asked about smitty's quote. Said he and smitty talk everyday, rolled the "pressing" thing off his back.

 

--Cam is working on consistency in practice. So there will be less talk about him pressing.  Worked on throwing balls inside a trashcan in practice. Praised Dorsey.

 

--Reporter mentioned the 4th and 1. Didn't throw anybody under the bus. Said he trusts coach Rivera to make the right call. Said he was ready to get the yard.

 

--Cam was keeping it light, cracking jokes but was also very mature, straight-forward and serious about turning this team around

Cam would have laid his life on the line for that yard to get the first down and win that game against the bills. I don't know why rivera can't have any balls to actually to do it. I'm still so fuging pissed of at that. Two years in a row rivera decides to rely on a shaky defense to win a game and twice it fails.

    • I like what Freeling brings to the table all around. If he is willing to put in the work he has an opportunity to be one of the better Tackles in the league down the line. Hunter Brazzell and Hecht are all premium additions but development from our staff are the key to unlocking them. Hopefully Lee and Wheatley will provide much needed additional depth to our secondary. Beyond that it's important not to get too caught up in draft grades. Many drafts over the years that turned out to be really good were not fawned over with praise. While some that were ended up being historical duds. Panthers fans ought to know this as well as anyone. In conclusion...
    • Maybe a bit of a homer take but I can't give us a grade lower than A.   Freeling was arguably the best LT prospect in the draft.  His athletic ability is off the chart and at 6'7" that can move.  It was a no brainer pick.   Hunter's key word is Violence. Putting him next to Brown should scare an offensive coordinator. These two give Scourton and Phillips plenty of chances to get one on one opportunities. Brazzell, another tall receiver with sprinter speed.  Our WR room is filled with tall talented WR.  Brazzell is going to give us a WR that can take to roof off the defense.  Basically Jimmy Horn with size. W. Lee III has a nickname of the Blanket. (heard this on the Beleav podcast with J. Stewart)  What a great name.  A great value in the 5th round. Hecht A strong, fast and extremely smart center. Many had him listed as the best center in the draft.  He's most likely a starter sooner than later. Wheatley A good safety in round 5.  Someone who could see playing time.   Kuwatch  I love this pick.  At minimum he will be a key piece on special teams and with some good coaching he'll see some packages where he'll play.  His down piece is he doesn't stay up in the running game.  Good coaching will fix this.  He reminds me a bit of A.J. Klein.   All these picks were great value.  I believe everyone of them were graded higher than the pick we took them.   Dan Morgan is IMO doing a great job turning this team into a good team with great depth.
