  1. Don't hold your breath. Proehl is as big on Corey Brown as any receiver on the squad.
  2. Here is a look at how the Carolina Panthers receiver depth chart is shaping up, as I see it. #1 Receiver Kelvin Benjamin - Looking to build on a solid rookie campaign. #2 Receiver Help Wanted - Apply Within #3 Receiver / Deep Threat Ted Ginn - Back in Carolina, looking to regain stride Corey Brown - Showed great potential to build on. #4 Receiver / 3rd down possession guys Jerricho Cotchery - Mixed results in 2015 Brenton Bersin - Dependable role player, had a few nice first down grabs. Jarrett Boykin - Will push Bersin, possible special teams roster spot Question Marks / Special Teams Stephen Hill - Fan favorite with much to prove still De'Andre Presley - on the bubble Mike Brown - Special teams signing Marcus Lucas - Big body that showed flashes in 2014 training camp The Carolina Panthers still appear to be primed to draft a wide receiver early in the 2015 NFL Draft. I still like Jaelen Strong in the first round at 25, who the Panthers are also interested in.
  3. This one hurts more than the Boykin signing helps.
  4. Isn't SBNation a place where fans can write out their terrible opinions and stir up conversation? So basically this "article" is almost as good as a PanthersUnited topic.
  5. If you think that play was an anomaly I don't think you have watched much Panthers football since 2011.
  6. That would mean something to me if PFF was reliable for offensive line grades, which it isn't. I'll stick to watching the product on the field. Yeah, that line is "good", or at least.... special.
  7. Well, Remmers was available in August at next to zero cost. If the Panthers were concerned Chandler was awful they could have made a move then without money being a consideration. I think they thought Chandler was an answer, thus his contract extension last year.
  8. I hope so. I try to forget that this group though Chandler/Bell was a NFL caliber tackle tandem.
  9. Want the actual answer? Well here it is. Does Cam need to improve? Yes, absolutely. The more important question is what does Cam need to improve as a passer? Answer: Consistent protection. Cam already works his butt off and spends a ton of time in the film room. What he needs is a fertile environment in which to plant his improvement seed. Get him adequate protection on a consistent basis, and that will happen.
  10. 2013 was good at left tackle and center. The rest well below average. Overall that line was far from good.
  11. Has anyone figured out how anyone can expect any QB to be fundamentally sound when he has been running for his life most of his career? I think it wise to provide him with a NFL caliber offensive line for at least a full season before nitpicking his technique.
  12. I wouldn't worry about that from what I am hearing. We will find out come may though.
  13. Not sure. He definitely wants to stay in Carolina, more so than any player in memory. Should not be too hard of a deal.
  14. Possibly, not sure about in Carolina though. I'm sure he would like to stay in the south somewhere. Atlanta or New Orleans would be more likely.
  15. Plenty of players get cut just after signing a one year deal. Look at last camp.
  16. Harper wants to be a GM, that is his ultimate goal. I look for him to get into personnel with a team somewhere, maybe new orleans.
  17. Now that we know the Carolina Panthers will have a total of nine draft picks, including seven in the first five rounds, it becomes clear that the Panthers will need to make room for these rookies. This seems like one of those seasons that a couple of mildly surprising roster cuts could happen to established players. Here are a few Panthers veteran players that could be on the bubble for 2015. 1. Roman Harper Harper struggled early in the 2014 season but did show improvement as the season went on. During our Huddle Podcast, Josh Norman expressed just how important Harper was to the defensive backfield. He seems to be a player coach of sorts. However, he is a 32 year old safety on a team that openly proclaims they want to get younger. Josh Norman, Bene Benwikere, and Tre Boston all have real NFL playoff experience now, making his leadership less important. Throw in the fact that the Panthers just met with Landon Collins this week and it isn't hard to imagine Harper being replaced in the draft. 2. Jerricho Cotchery Cotchery was billed as a mentor for the Panthers young receiver corps, and he performed very well in that capacity. The problem his his performance did not necessarily meet the Panthers expectations on the field. Their interest in Greg Jennings solidifies the notion that the veteran possession receiver position is up for grabs. If a guy like Jaelen Strong is taken in the first, there could be little reason to keep Cotchery on board. 3. Colin Cole First off, I think Cole is a solid role player for the Panthers. That said, he is also the oldest player on the team at 34. Should the Panthers decide to get a young defensive tackle prospect in rounds 3-5 (which is very possible), Cole may be the odd man out. 4. Mike Tolbert I know this one probably isn't well received by most fans, and I myself don't like the thought admittedly. Tolbert is fun to watch both on and off the field. However, last season his production just did not match his salary and he will be 30 years old by the end of this season. The Panthers would save 1.4 million against the cap by letting Tolbert go after June 1. Dave Gettleman has already said the Panthers will draft a running back this season. Throw in a healthy Richie Brockel at H-Back and Darrin Reaves (who had the same YPC as Tolbert last season) and a case could be made for Tolbert to walk. Again, I would hate to see it happen, but it just might.
  18. Being great with the media is about 1078th on my list of what I like in a GM.
  19. 131 main has a great key lime pie. For the crust they add a hint of cinnamon and crush almonds in it. Its divine.
