lol when he signs with another team it's going to be "them panthers did dwill dirty i hope he goes off for 200 and 3 TDs when he plays the panthers real panther fans are rooting for 34" etc

No, they won't. The reason people were pissed over the Steve Smith cut was because Gettleman bungled the whole thing and it lasted for months. That has not happened here.

Anyone else think there's something more to the timing of it though? Like, maybe Gettleman watched the RBs at the combine and feels confident he'll get a guy to replacehim on tthe roster, so they did it now... Or is it purely based on the cap hit and all that good stuff?

Could be but I doubt it. Gettleman always says how he is a film guy, and mentioned he hadn't gotten much of a chance to look into film yet.

I suppose if between his interview last week and today he looked at a lot of film it's possible.

Gettlemen did him a favor by cutting him now. We could have waited through the draft and see what fell to us but he did the up and up thing and cut him.

 

 

 

 

 

Thing is, the Panthers have not cut him yet.

 

 

Williams is just going out and breaking the news himself. Nothing is official.

 

David Newton said on twitter the Panthers have no plans to make an announcement today.

gettleman issued like one statement on it after he was released and said that all players on the roster were being evaluated at the combine.  the rest of it was fans like you going apeshit on the internet and steve smith talking trash to anyone with a microphone that would listen.

    • I know it's only been training camp and one preseason game, but I think T-Mac has already shown his floor to be exactly what I said about him in the pre-draft process. That his floor if he never improves his game, is as one of the best #2 WRs in the NFL, if not even still a low end #1 (i.e. a 25th-ish best WR in the league). I think it's safe to say he's already established himself as our #1, and there are only a small handful of teams in the league where I don't think he'd be their starting #2 WR in Week 1. Bengals (Higgins), Dolphins (Waddle), Eagles (Smith), Bucs (Godwin if healthy), Rams (Adams) are really the only teams where I think he'd be the #3 as a rookie in Week 1.  A few others like the Lions (Williams), Bears (Odunze), Seahawks (Kupp), Commanders (Deebo), where he'd be the 2b to start the season, just because they're vets and/or already have a year or two of experience with their team/QB. And even having said that, I think by year 2, he's better than every one of those players (And no, I'm not saying he's already going to be better than a prime version of Adams, just whatever he'll be at 33 next year), and same goes for Kupp, but that's more because it seems like his body might be quitting on him in a way that hasn't happened to Adams (yet).
    • Well to be fair, Horn not practicing right now to let his stitches heal up from a car accident isn't something that should be concerning.  Sure, you don't want him missing practice leading into the season, but it's one that once healed, won't have lingering affects or fear of re-injuring it, it was just bad luck.
    • Quality backups are absolutely important. This franchise has been plagued with depth problems. That said, there is a little bit of dismay that Mays can't beat out a 1-legged man, and all the talk going into the off-season was how BC would certainly be gone since he had position versatility.  In the end, it doesn't matter too awfully much, as I would be shocked to no end if Corbett makes it through the season. We know what we have in reserve, and that should surely be better than trying to sign random fat guys mid season to try and take over.
