Nice ESPN article on Star

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Carolina Panthers defensive tackle Star Lotulelei got a lot of high fives and gasps from teammates during Monday's film session when the rookie was shown knocking Tampa Bay tackle Demar Dotson on his rear end.

It was a spectacular play that illustrated the raw, physical strength of the first-round pick as he made Dotson look silly.

It was a play worthy of SportsCenter highlights and replays on YouTube.

It led to an interception by safety Mike Mitchell that the Carolina offense turned into a touchdown pass from Cam Newton to Ted Ginn Jr. four plays later.

Lotulelei should be proud, right?

Wrong.

"To be honest with you, I really don't like looking at that play because I didn't finish it," Lotulelei told me. "I actually missed a sack, and it was disappointing for me to watch that play."

    • I don't agree with this, he looks jacked to me.  His frame won't allow him to ever be as big as XL, and that's fine.  He will just have a hard time with press, there are ways to deal with that.  
    • that type of QB, especially paired with a weaker NFL arm.....excel with quick game weapons though.   it sounds like you are a big Tmac homer.  I mean, if you are watching every snap he played in college.   So, it's safe to say we likely won't see eye to eye on expectations for year 1.   And my expectations on Tmac aren't all in his control.  As I have also said, elsewhere, this is really year 2 for Bryce.  So I expect the first half of the season to carry healthy odds of a year 2 regression (specifically the first half).  Film, tendencies, and weaknesses in Dave's offense are going to be prepared for.    out of curiosity, what cons to Tmac's game where in the scouting stuff you saw?  
    • Maybe a weeeee bit exaggerating. I think he will be a great player. But that doesn’t look like someone that was super committed in the weight room during college which is just a little confusing. Maybe he cut some weight to try and run a better 40. We saw Julio come into the league a little skinnier, get bigger/stronger and really start dominating. Strength and size is important as a big physical x receiver. It’s not so important for the Devonta Smith role
