If this question has already been ask and answered please lock or move this thread or direct me to the link. Has any player attempted any type of players only workout. I understand our quarterback situation but has anyone shown anytype of leadership and attempted to get something organized.

I don't believe anyone is doing much more than just maintenance work outs as of now, I don't think the players have access to the trainers so more traditional/general work outs are probably being done like it was off season. No one has a choice really. This is why this thing either needs to get resolved ASAP or locked out for the season. I would consider it a waste of time and fraud to hack job the season and dilute it's worth.

Ehh... Various units have had workouts together but nothing major or long-lasting. Clausen got the receivers together (or they invited him, not sure which) a couple times now. Gross has brought most of the o-line together (they've not brought in Otah for fear of him breaking a leg or something, as far as I can tell).

NO! no one, has actually shown the effort to get EVERYONE together. Which bothers me, everyone is doing their own personal workouts without the entire team.

That's what happens what you're leaderless. No real QB on the roster to pull it off.

I don't care really, as long as they all stay ready as individuals and work in small groups.

Cam is actually doing the best thing for his rapid development. He needs to learn the playbook and he has a few QB scholars to help him. Then he needs to read the defenses, and the one-on-one he is getting on film and in simulations is priceless. Remember, if we were practicing the NFLPA has limits on the amount of time the Panthers can work him. 12 hours per day would be a violation.

In addition, getting the whole team together might be counterproductive because OL and WRs do not do the same drills. OL and DL should be working together, QB, WR, and DBs should be working together. LBs should go with both. RBs need to stay in shape and possibly work on pass protection.

Facilities may hinder their ability to work together (not finding one), then there is the fact that it has been more publicity stunt than productive in other places. Media attention, rah rah, etc.

The Panthers need to watch Philly defensive film and SD offensive tape.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist

      Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.

      Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
