Carolina Panthers Training Camp - Sunday Thread

[RJK]

Would love to see Avery Williamson get brought in. One injury and it’s a bunch of JAGs at LB. not sure how comfortable they’d be with a league minimum 1 year deal with Reuben Foster…

The panthers are covering camp like NBC Is covering the Olympics. Resulting in zero content or interest

I seen reports that Christ was having a typical rookie experience......looking rough and overwhelmed against 4th stringers. It reminded me when norwell was a UDFA and that put him in a one V one against second rounder Kony Ealy........and norwell destroyed him. May have to wait a while for Chirst and thats normal/fine...

I can't really buy into that "normal/fine" idea for a 3rd round draft pick when we so clearly had massive OL needs. For him to not even be close to challenging some pretty poor starters is a big disappointment.

There should be some ILB cuts after camp.

Hes still a rookie and some are ready before others. Its deal where Christ could put together 2 straight weeks of great practices and be on the fast track to a starting role. Not listing this as a excuse, but dear god how do you get better as a OLmen when theres huge limit on padded play?? I think theres only 14 padded practices for the whole season??? Panther had one and it was cut short due a bad judgement. GOOOOOOODDDLLLUUUUCCCCCKKKK with ALLL of that. For me that feels impossible, not even joking/memeing...like vet OL are the only way to go, cause no rookie OLman is going to develop. Players union is truly hurting the development here.

 

Back on Chirst/OL, where I'm at is same as before. Im waiting for live snaps with this wide zone. This thing is 5 OLmen playing as one unit with the same goal. Lots of moving the flow and reestablishing the line/end/middle/etc. You need a OL thats in best shape as possible.

Well, not all rookie linemen seem to be struggling with that. 

Let's hope he flashes in the preseason or the rest of camp.

Fans need to realize that below average vet lineman are usually still better than rookie lineman.  Rookie OL that excel are very much the exception, not the norm.

I have no idea what you're talking about. I-85 is a well maintained and always well flowing freeway. It is a model of everything the interstate highway system is, should, and aspires to be.  No one is ever stuck on it, they are experiencing it.

It would never be clogged with traffic even on a sunday morning.

I hope.
