Panthers | Goodson expected to return kickoffs Week 1

Mon, 07 Sep 2009 18:37:30 -0700

The Associated Press reports Carolina Panthers RB Mike Goodson is expected to return kickoffs for the team's Week 1 game.

Woops meant kickoffs. My bad.

He did it all preseason. Probably will have Rosario back with him to keep him in check and block. The concern is PR duty....but since they have jobs maybe they won't be as concerned of making plays and will fair catch when appropriate.

i am interested in seeing how the removal of the "wedge" will have an effect on the experienced NFL returners. I almost wonder if the change will be significant enough that the younger guys who are not used to this will make the adjustment quicker and therefore be more productive in the return game.

it seems like it will make the return guys more open to injury, but will make them rely on thier speed and quickness to make lanes and get upfield. to me, someone like mark jones will suffer greatly from this new rule, and i am glad he isnt coming back right away until we can see how all this plays out. hopefully a key player like goodson wont get injured more easily due to the change. if we can get our guys to catch the ball, i think we have some good talent.

      As a VT fan, powell-ryland isn't a guy I'd put very high on an NFL list. I'm nervous the development path is minimal and he's maxed out physically. I don't see a 3 down guy there.  Savion jones is the untapped potential guy. He's worth a look as that's rare size speed and length. I get it, the production isn't there. But he'd be a solid guy that late (4th) that sticks for all downs in multiple systems. Diggs is a guy that might stick 3 downs in a 3-4 as an OLB. He's built longer than APR so I get why APR is so low on this list. He's like APR that he's older for the class and worry the potential jump is smaller than some of the others.

      Speculation from local sources

      Cam Jordan said something on GMFB this morning I didn't know that took qb off the table for NO.  He said that NO has not taken a qb in the 1st round since Archie Manning.

      There is at least some speculation that sanders may go to new orleans at 9.  That makes us a logical trade partner for anyone that wants him. Even if the saints don't really want him, it benefits us if other teams think they might.  If they do and we block them, even better. If we were offered anything like the op mentions, we should accept.  Then maybe trade up for a 2nd late first rounder.  Id love to get an edge and wr late in the first.  If we could do that and add a 26 1st, that would be amazing.
