Interesting read on our new safety, Nakamura.

“I take a lot of pride in special teams, and you can just see by the way I play,” Nakamura said. “Whenever I step on that football field I play as hard as I can. … I don’t settle to be average. I don’t put special teams in the backseat.”

I like this guy. He seems to have his head in place and has a bit of swag to him. Special teams might be something special this coming year.

from his college tape and knowing what he brings, I seriously think he can be a gem that shines for the Panthers

pride in playing special teams? I thought that was extinct.

His mom can beat up your dad.

If he wins the starting safety job, he may not play special teams a whole lot.

Well, it's a start.

Now, get Chris Gamble to reduce his cap number to $2.5 Million, so the Panthers can sign either CB Jason Allen of the Texans OR CB William Middleton of the Jags. This defensive backfield needs a MAJOR upgrade, and either of these players will fit in nicely as a starter. That way, the 'Cats can move The Captain to his natural nickel position.

The alternative is to see what it would cost to trade for Asante Samuel. Either way, it would expose Gamble for the Poser he really is. If the Panthers had a bona fide CB on the other side, Gamble would get thrown at and torched all day long...and we already know he can't tackle.

Gamble had a great year, that fool don't know what he is talking about, Gamble covered every #1 WR and damn near shut them all down.

He sounds like the type of of player Rivera wants especially on defense.

He'll get his chance & I hope he seizes it & becomes the starting safety.

[PFFC]

Sounds very promising!

I'm right there with ya man, i like this guy alot.

[Lumps]

Gamble is good but, we still need another CB no mistake in that.

I agree with the poster about one thing, bringing in middleton. Hopefully on the cheap. Him or Ross from the giants.
