No claims on cuts

[Mr. Scot]

...except for Kevin Reddick.

All other Panther cuts sailed through waivers untouched.

[Ivan The Awesome]

Who picked up Reddick?

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.

[Carolina Cajun]

Glad We retained Melvin white (I believe I saw he'll be put on ir, don't know he got injured, but he could still provide depth next year barring injuries).  The other good news is that lee ward should be able to make it to the practice squad if we would (and we should) choose to.

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.

Maybe the dude is a total chode

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.

Corey blows.

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.

But I thought we cut so many all-pro's?

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.

[caatfan]

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

  Bersin was once a pet project, and is now just a failed project.

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.

[Mr. Scot]

How exactly is Bersin a 'failed project'?
