“Our quarterback position is what it is right now,” coach Ron Rivera told reporters during a recent visit to Fayetteville. “We’ve got to talk about where we want to head as far as the veteran backup is concerned.”

Thought we'd never hear this again with fox out the door? you thought wrong.

sigh....it's been a long offseason...END THE LOCKOUT

How sad is it that this article came outta the Shelby star!? I grew up there.... Sad sad city!

Never been to Shelby, but I will always hate that place. Beat my football team in the State Championship 5 years ago. Total heartbreaker.

And yes, to the OP, the lockout does need to end because we definitely need something with some real substance to talk about. I'd at least like for our coach to be able to say hello to his players at some point.

Listen to coaches around the league. They all use that term quite often. It is not unique to Fox simply we heard it ad nauseum because he was our coach.

exactly.. sometimes there's only 1 answer to a question because people want to know what an answer cannot give.

OR, the coach/staff/player would be stupid to give it.. expect to hear it all your life.

Most interesting thing is that Cam already has the starter job locked up before stepping foot in camp and they aren't even going to pretend like he has to earn it. They also don't seem to be thinking about competition for him either.

Don't know if that's a good or bad thing, just interesting.

    • Not saying he should be 1st round, but Kyle Kennard is being WAY overanalyzed. At 6-5 260 he won the Nagurski, SEC defensive poy, all american, for those who are unifamiliar. His weaknesses aren't so bad that he should be like 20th among D ends lol. Could he use more pass rush counters, sure, but his fball IQ is better than half these ends i've watched. He's skilled with his hand placement and punch which is important, that's the first thing guys like Belichick look for. I think he can be stiff at the top of the rush, but his lateral movement is better than a lot of the guys I watched. He always found ways to be disruptful, he's craftier and more quick twitch than the testing numbers might say. Takes Great pursuit angles and is good in space when it becomes a broken play. A lot of ends I watched were lost once the ball got outside of the tackle box. I think a predictor of success at this level too is love of the game, and he's a fball guy. "Want to" and relentless coupled with technique win when it comes to DLine play, you can see it with Clowney, when he wants to flip the switch  he can, KK always has his switch on. 
    • As a Panther fan, we want him to stay.  It means more lust for the QBs picking before us.  We need Sanders going top 5.
    • I will start.  Please do not copy my ideas.  Reminder:  I SUCK at picking QBs, a tradition upheld since 2010. Aaron Rodgers___New York Giants__ Kirk Cousins*____will not be traded until after draft Sam Darnold __Minnesota Vikings (do not rule out a sign and trade) Justin Fields __Pittsburgh Steelers_ Russell Wilson Las Vegas Raiders So after these guys are signed in free agency, the following teams will need a QB entering the draft:   Cleveland NY Giants  (Signed Rodgers but might draft a QB too on day 2) NY Jets New Orleans Indianapolis Tennessee If my predictions are correct(?) two to three QBs could be available for trade.    Cousins could go to Indy, following the exit path for discarded Falcons QBs.  Tennessee will have to pick Ward and they should, which puts Cleveland in a unique situation.  I think the Jets, Raiders (if they don't sign Russell), and Saints will go hard after Sanders, and they will offer Cleveland a lot. Cleveland could move back, grab a bunch of draft capital, draft the T they need, and then they could draft a QB later--it all depends on how much they like Sanders.  The Saints have no cap room (-$44m), so a trade with Minnesota or Atlanta is out.  Moving up to #2 from #10 is expensive in terms of draft capital.  Suck it, Saints. They will have to stay with Carr.  I think that the Jets will trade up with Cleveland to get Sanders and Cleveland will take a T and draft a QB later.  Do not be surprised to see a player like Daniel Jones in Cleveland on a one-year deal if they trade back.
