No claims on cuts

Great, so White and Wallace are on IR now. Glad White's Panther career isn't over quite yet, and Wallace is an intriguing prospect for backup OT depth. And I'm shocked Boykin wasn't picked up after reading around here how great he is.

I guess Boykin wasn't the player I thought he could be. Fiqured Green Bay would scoop him back up now that they have injury issues. They know him much better then we did. Obviously they passed on him. Coaches where correct on this call it seems.

I find this funny since it's coming from the guy who preached all year how Corey Brown was the second coming of Jesus.

No one was saying how great Boykin was, most were saying he deserved a spot over Bersin. Boykin going unclaimed shouldn't shock anyone, Bersin would go unclaimed as well.

That's a huge over exaggeration. I never said he'd be anything more than a solid #3 behind KB and Funchess, and I still stand by that. Unfortunately with those injuries he's being forced into a starting role that he shouldn't be in. I have said it's possible he'll be our biggest WR threat this year now with KB out and I still stand by that. Preseason games hold absolutely no weight when evaluating a player's performance. Come talk to me during or after the regular season, and we'll see how he looks compared to what I've said about him.

Nearly everybody here wanted him to see time with the 1s and wanted to see Brown and Bersin cut, and after the last preseason game people here were making predictions that Boykin would wind up as our starter across from Funchess. That's hardly just "saying he deserved a spot over Bersin." After he was waived many were sure he'd be claimed by the Packers or another team.

I think "nearly everybody ... wanted to see Brown ... cut" is an exaggeration.  There were a few people that said some such foolishness, but Bersin is the one most want cut and believe Boykin is a better option than.  Brown is salvageable and still a project.  Bersin was once a pet project, and is now just a failed project.

Hundreds of players got cut and every one picked up by another team means another chop. No surprise that few are being grabbed.

Failed project my ass. He catches the ball (better than Boykin did) and can line up at different positions. I doubt they come up with anyone to take his spot this season.

      Processing Blue: immediate draft needs

      By Basbear · Posted

      He's a hard player to rank, cause he is a young NT. I do see his abilities to branch out among the DL. That's the only way for him to land in the 1st, some team has to believe he's got the stuff to play DE or T3.... I just don't see using 19 on him, I feel there should be around 7 players just ranked higher than him for the Panthers team.  ___________________________________________________________________   Now you are a roster nut like me. Im tossing this into fire, I think a good move is to trade UP, yes rare. Just the roster #s tell me 5 rookies and no more than 2 starters will make the team. I feel 5 is magic number.    QB- 2  BY, Pickett RB- 3   Chubba, Brooks(pls), etienne TE- 4   Sanders, Temble, Evans, Draft pick/major/franks/UDFA OL- 10   Walker, Lewis, Fortner, Hunt, Motown, Zavailla, Samac, Stone, Draft pick, Draft pick/Charles/carter WR-  6   Tmac, XL, Coker, Metch, Horn, Tremay   offense=  25 with 3 draft picks   DL-  6   Brown, Brown, Wharton, Ray, Cam, Hunter/draft pick Ed-   5  Phillips, Nic, Prince, Jones, ST/incoom/hampton ILB-   5  Lloyd, Wallace, Bam, Claud, draft pick CB-    5 Horn, Jackson, Thor, Evans, draft pick/CSN/UDFA SS-  4  Scott, More, Ramsom, Sim   Defense = 25 with 3 picks   ST = known 3+o+d = 53 roster   SO I see only room for 5-6 with factoring in UDFA pool. That tells me to trade up! Bonus the 1st+3rd gets in front of TB yucs. Then use one of the 5ths+2nd to draft another target. That's your two starters and use the 4th, 5th and 6th for the development OTs and what ever the best player are at the pick/DB. The last couple years they have added 2-3 UDFA each year, maybe the same this year too. Soooooooo Im normally 95% trade back, but above made me change my mind. I do not want to waive 5th rounder, I feel thats high with players on the bench.    ??
