Carolina Panthers 2015 Roster Projection


Jeremy Igo

Important thing to remember when making this list:

Obviously you're going to need a certain quota of players at each spot, but per his own words Gettleman doesn't subscribe to a formula of preset numbers at any position.

As with the draft where his philosophy is 'best player available' Gettleman's roster building is based on the 'best 53'.

Try this yourself and see how hard it is.  I love the players that Jeremy has on the PS--I would bet 2-3 of them make the roster at some point.  I disagree with about 3-4 players, but this is a place to start.

He makes a good point about Webb, and I am sure he struggled over that one.  Webb is a great attitude and leader.  Tough to cut. 

I still think we go with a pure FB.  Not sure that Tolbert can do that.

Cotchery and Chandler need to be cut imo. Chandler is the worst starting RT we've ever had in the history of the franchise. Cotchery quit on several routes, sometimes at critical moments, and was covered like a blanket by DEs. Yes defensive ends shut him down, and he quit on the routes and slowly just trailed off. Unacceptable. Steve Smith would have punched him for that. I don't want to hear that Cotchery is some crafty vet, not when quitting on routes and looking around like an idiot who had no idea what just happened. Being around forever doesn't mean he's some wise sage. I don't want Cotchery (who can forget that drop against Seattle that hit him dead square in the hands) causing more coverage sacks on Cam because he's almost never open. And that pillar of ash Chandler has to be cut. I don't care he knows how to play OC, OT, OG, DT, he is TERRIBLE. Cam is in serious danger any time Chandler is on the field.

Hate the RB core as long as Stewart is propped up as a 16 game starter. Artis-Payne must ride to the rescue.

Oline is still a huge question mark.

DB core could use some help.

As long as Stewart can play he needs to start. He's way too talented not to. We need to play him while we've got him. I honestly think Fozzy is a pretty good RB too and Todman may have his uses here and there. Artis-Payne has an all around solid skill set. plus Tolbert. RB should  be good to go.

    • He can’t even learn to run routes. No chance in hell he can do both that and pick up blocking schemes 
    • Well he had essentially a 70% completion rate for almost three thousand yards.  Biggest issues were awkward and inconsistent release.  I wouldn't call arm strength bad, but not great.    
    • I see him being better and most of that is a few downfield passes that were seemingly non existent.    But it is what is around him that has dictated the trajectory more than the quarterbacking. He is game manager level and unable to dictate to defenses.  And even if I am wrong and he is the reason we ‘upwarded’, we are bumping our heads on the ceiling and only making meager gains. If it is an incline it is awfully shallow degree wise. Like a finance graph that tracks your progress and hovers around the rate of inflation. Barely breaking even.  Is that where you want your money?  We make up these deadlines expectations and generally he does the minimum of what he needs to do to hang around.    It does not encourage me to believe that when we get into a game against a good run d that we cannot break down with our run game, to believe that we can pivot to the air and successfully counter their strategy.  But they run it back again. Of course I am gunshy of a repeat of the same thing we have watched for three years.    oh, and yes his durability is his most impressive positive for my money. I fear the other shoe dropping on that and the contractual consequences that will follow.   Last  of all, too late to edit my mistake here but would like to acknowledge it: the last three years has done very little to convince me that I was not wrong in not wanting him. One too many “not”s.
