New team captains?

[DeSim]

Random thought just came up in my head, with both Kalil and Peppers retiring, who do you think will be the new captain on each side of the ball?

If he hits it off I could see McCoy being named a Captain.

But for now...

I’m guessing Bradberry on defense.

Offense my thinking would be Trai Turner.

davis too

[t96]

I could see Christian getting a C

[Catufb85]

Cam Olsen CMC on offense

Luke KK and my guess McCoy steps in and becomes a lockerroom favorite 

[Lemory]

Luke, Short, Olsen, Cam, CMC, and someone from ST. 

[Icege]

Cam, Luke, Olsen, Reid, Turner, Short

CMC replaces Olsen as a captain next year.

I can see Torrey getting a nod over one of the linemen. He has helped develop our WRs, been involved in the community, and was a direct contributor in the signings of Reid + McCoy.

Cam, CMC, Olsen, Luke, (defensive player) (special teams player)

The guys at that lunch plus Newton is probably a good place to start. Likely not Thompson but who knows 

[jfra78]

everyone saying someone from ST when its going to be Colin Jones

I wouldn't be too shocked at Torrey Smith either. From a personality standpoint he makes sense. However hes not a long term piece

Make Reid a captain on D and watch heads explode across the country. Likely a bad PR move, but I would be down with it if only as a big ole FU to the NFL.

Lost Davis, Peppers, and Kalil. Luke, Cam, and Olsen returning are obvious. 

I think you could see Matt Paradis potentially step in as a captain depending on how he has gelled with the team. McCaffrey is clearly on his way there but maybe not next season. Like @Icege said I could see him replacing Olsen next season.

On defense I think we might be overlooking Mario Addison as a captain, but I could see Kawaan Short or maybe even Shaq Thompson or Eric Reid. McCoy could definitely be a captain too.Those defensive captain slots behind Kuechly are a real wild card.
