i actually thought this until i saw him truck 3 people in a couple preseason games. I mean truck too he knocked people on their asses.

 

Although i would say he doesn't do that with any kind of regularity it just caught me off guard

 

He's definitely a physical runner. On one of his kick returns he lowered his shoulder and just decimated the tackler.

2-3 touches makes perfect sense.

 

IF he gets ten then something is either really wrong or he is gotten really good.

I'm hoping more for 5-6 touches. If he can be productive, maybe bump it up a couple more. However, if, God forbid, he struggles, I would still give him enough touches to see how he reacts. Everyone, including the coaching staff, wants to see what the kid can do.

Spelling DWill does not guarantee touches. But, if they feed him at all, I can live with it.

I'm hoping that Barner can just hold onto the ball. I don't know why but for some reason rookie RBs seem to forget about ball security when they come to the NFL. I'm expecting us to use Barner as DeAngelo was used beginning his career. Screen plays and getting him into space in order to allow Barner to make plays by utilizing his agility and explosive speed. I'm looking forward to seeing Barner tomorrow. I'm actually excited about it for some reason

      Jamaree Salyer would be an excellent signing. I hope we are looking at him.

      BREAKING: Panthers sign QB Kenny Pickett

      By djp14 · Posted

      The Panthers are Pickett's 5th team in 5 years. Howell's next team will be his 5th. I don't think the league thinks that much of either of them. They're just warm bodies, at this point.

      10 players I wouldn't mind the Panthers signing that are still available:  - CB Nate Hobbs (Packers): Was just released this morning. Could be a very solid nickel upgrade for us.  - CB Kader Kohou (Dolphins): Solid slot corner who shouldn't break the bank and could be an upgrade over Chau Smith-Wade.  - OT Jamaree Salyer (Chargers): Had an underrated year with the Chargers (68.2 PFF pass block grade, 61.5 run block grade) and is still young enough (25) to continue developing.  - OT Jawaan Taylor (Chiefs): Depending on price, could be a good short-term option at LT while we figure things out long-term.  - WR Jauan Jennings (49ers): If we're going to add a FA receiver, I think Jennings makes a lot of sense but the price may be a bit too high for a slot receiver.  - WR John Metchie III (Jets): A cheaper option at slot receiver who has experience playing with Bryce at Alabama. Low risk/high reward type signing.  - WR Calvin Austin III (Steelers): Likely an "in between" option relative to Jennings and Metchie, but another solid option in the slot.  - LB Leo Chenal (Chiefs): I think we'll target another starting ILB in the draft, but we could also opt to pair Chenal with Devin Lloyd and check that need off the list early.  - OC Matt Hennessy (49ers): Could be a decent stop-gap starter at center and solid depth if nothing else.  - OC Andre James (Chargers): Was a backup last year for the Chargers (for some reason; he couldn't have been worse than what they had starting) but was solid for the Raiders the year before.
