Panthers OTA Notes - Week 2

[Ivan The Awesome]

Bersin Making this roster bothers me a bit.. Don't know about him. 

[X-Clown on 1]

I think you answered your own question.

Cotchery is about 90% a lock.  He's the only real WR veteran on the team (Ginn doesn't really count in that aspect as he's still learning the position in his own right).  It would be down right shocking if Bersin made it over Cotchery.

​I've argued before that Cotchery will make the team.  But if Bersin makes it, I'm thinking Cotch may be at risk...

You cant be 90% a lock. You either are a lock or you aren't, and I don't believe cotchery is.

I don't think Bersin is the token Panther because he is from JR.s college.  I think he has been around long enough that he is more worthy than some of the bigger names.

 

If you are looking a good possession receiver.  I like Bersin.  Good hands, very reliable, great routes and is tall.

I have no idea who I think will be cut.  For the first time in many years.  Teams are going to be watching our cut list.  That seems odd to say.

I wonder how WR Jarret Boykin responds...I feel he's Bersin's main competition

​Cam loves throwing to him, is a main target in OTA's. 

 

If Cam likes him.... well..... 

​One thing he better not be is a first read though.  fug that nonsense.  

[Mol3m4n]

The only way I would be fine with keeping Bersin is if Cotchery were cut. There's no need to keep the exact same receiver on the roster. Their only difference is experience and years left.

Thanks for the great notes Jeremy.  In addition to all you wrote, I loved reading of the special guests RR invited to practice.  The Panthers are SUCH a class act.  I love this team's heart.

Always wondered why KK didn't play DE some...

Always wondered why KK didn't play DE some...

​He did last year and did well.

If we had more competent talent at WR Bersin's best case scenario would be making it as the last WR who never sees the field during the season.  This is why I really hoped we would do more with the position.   I suppose as long as we lose Cotchery OR Bersin by the time the season starts, I can live with it though...  I was happy for BB making the team and all last season with his story, and he seems like a great guy, but he isn't very good. 

Also, as far as RB, I'm pretty sure I said it when we signed him, but Todman will absolutely make this team, and I could see him surpassing Fozzy when all is said and done.  It's kind of been a running joke here on the huddle, where anytime we would sign someone at RB, multiple people would say, "I think we've found our Darren Sproles."   Fozzy has been the closest to it, but I'm telling you,  I think Todman is the real deal in regards to being thscat-back we've been looking for. 

[Mother Grabber]

If Bersin makes it, then that just confirms to me that Hill, Byrd, Cotchery and/or Boykin are on borrowed time. Funchess, Benjamin, Brown and Ginn are locks in my opinion. That's four spots already. We typically carry five receivers on game day.

maybe we can have someone who can play WR6, as well as backup QB and LT.

benjamin, funchabunch, ginn, brown, cotch, bersin 

totally realistic
