Ben Boulware seems..... Determined.

[DaveThePanther2008]

He is my UDFA to make the team.

I am sorry but if you are the MLB for the National Championship team and lead the team in tackles. (BTW I hate Clemson) You can play in the NFL.   I don't give a crap about what he ran in his underwear. This guy is a football player and will make somebody dispensable.  Of all the UDFAs that I have bet on I am more confident about him than any of the others.  (all but 1 made it Garrett last year)

Or Jeremy Cash

Could Cash switch back to safety to try to assure his roster spot too? I like him as much as Boulware

I don't think he has to beat out Mayo or Jacobs OR Cash. He just needs to beat out Chuck Norris. Norris was an UDFA last year that made the team for special teams. He was fine on special teams, but 7 linebackers on a 53 man roster is traditional: Kuechly, Davis, Thompson, Cash, Jacobs, Mayo, Boulware. That seems completely reasonable to me. Don't forget that Klein is gone.

If Klein was here he'd have no shot IMO and I do think Klein is better overall but glad to have him and hope he makes it. We have always had a deep, nasty group of LBs...

Boulware is your cousin?

He is just a distant cousin (I believe his grandfather and my grandfather were brothers).....but hey, I will take ANY family playing for my Panthers.

 

[Carl Spackler]

He's really gritty, high football IQ, comes from a good family, hard worker, a real coach on the field

[Jon Snow]

I think the kid makes the team.  He's motivated to succeed and this team certainly could use more of these types of players.  Looking at you KB.

[SOJA]

I think he is a PS player year one. But give him a year just to focus on football and who knows what this guy is capable of. He has got every corny, overused expression for "heart" that you can think of.

He also led Clemson (2 years in a row) in missed tackles. Not sure his attitude and motor can make up for his short arms and lack of athleticism. He may be able to make a living on ST teams though.

Beating oit Ben Jacobs shouldn't be hard to do...

A guy with that much fire can be a terror on special teams. And he'll light a fire under the guys who think they're above him on the LB depth chart.

Not that we have a bunch of slouches in our LB group. Heck there are a coaches would give their left nut to have our third stringers as their starters. Our first string is so good that it is hard to see sometimes how good their backups are. And their backups.

A fiery kid could come in and really elevate some of their work, though, as good players can sometimes be pushed to greatness and great players will rise to any challenge.

Looks like a grinder and I like that.
