Some quick observations from training camp:
A player who has consistently looked good is C.J. Davis. A guard out of Pittsburgh, Davis, 6-2 and 308-pounds, signed with the Panthers as a rookie free agent. He tore up his right ankle before the 2009 season began. He's healthy now, and lends depth to the offensive line.
Dwayne Jarrett caught a pass on the right side and was immediately wrapped up by safey Charles Godfrey. Jarrett angrily shook him off and kept running. Two guys who aren't going to fight in camp: Jarrett and Godfrey.
Fullback Tony Fiammetta broke open for a pass from Jimmy Clausen in front of linebacker Jamar Williams.
Josh Vaughn, a free-agent running back out of Richmond, grabbed a screen pass, put on a pretty move and suddenly was free.
After several short passes and screens, Hunter Cantwell hit rookie David Gettis deep. Gettis beat cornerback R.J. Stanford and safety Marcus Hudson, and Cantwell hit him in stride.
When somebody gets open deep, it often is Dexter Jackson out of Appalachian State.
Practice culminated with a goal line drill, offense versus defense, white jerseys versus blue. The defense stuffed the offensive early. Linebacker James Anderson celebrated loudly after a defensive victory. So did linebacker Mortty Ivy.
Then the offensive pounded it in. And then Cantwell found tight end Dante Rosario alone in the end zone for a touchdown.
"I liked your end zone dance," DeAngelo Williams told center Ryan Kalil.
"No. I was trash-talking," Kalil said.
This is what training camp is for.
One area in which the defense dominated: volume. Defenders make more noise.

I'd like to see D. Jackson make the team and make an impact.
Other than that, I'd like a cold beer and a cigarette.

Heat is GREAT !!! Its summertime for all the dumbfucks.
The problem is wimpyazz Americans today are all spoiled rotten sitting on their fatazz in the central AC homes and businesses with food hanging out of their overworked mouths 24/7.
Sweat is good. You were given your own individual AC system with the millions of sweat glands to expel waste and fat from your fat bodies but it is never used and thats why America is the not only the most obese but the sickest nation on earth.
Look at these NFLer big fat tubs of lard. Take a body fat test and see what they score. Its sickening to see these overweight cows making millions whining about a little heat. Sweat baby sweat. Sweat off all that fat.
Why is America the fattest most unhealthy nation on earth? And they eat fatty food and bitch and whine about the fat content? What a joke.
Ever seen any fat Chinese or Africans? Heat is heat. Deal with it. Go on a diet. Go sweat it off in the gym you fatazz fuckz.

Jackson's only knock is that he is not physical enough at times. He obviously has speed (4.27 sec 40) but he lacks the willingness to take hits. If he can get this worked out then he can definitely be a weapon for the Panthers.
As for Jarrett, he seems to be continuing to prove that he is a bust. Lacking the ability to line up correctly and run good routes is a great way to get cut in the NFL.
