Final Panthers Cuts


Jeremy Igo

Recommended Posts

People will be clamoring for him here, but I didn't think he could catch when we wanted him after he was released from GB, and now he's flopped off of 2 more teams in 1 season. I don't want to touch him, and that's a lot for me to say because I want to touch everyone

Our options aren't exactly stellar, unless we manage a trade.

You're welcome to touch me, I taste like strawberries.

All the squawking you've been doing about WR help, lol I got a legit laugh at this post.

I have my reasons.   Imo, he is like Cotchery redux.  He has put up solid numbers throughout his career, but the best of them were when he was surrounded by talent in a pass-heavy system.   He won't be that guy here.  Remember everyone creaming their pants over Cotchery because of the numbers he put up in Pittsburgh?  Same deal...

So we're at 10 cuts now.

WR Brenton Bersin

WR Mike Brown

TE Marcus Lucas

S Marcus Ball

TE Scott Simonson (a likely candidate for the practice squad)

DT Terry Redden

T David Foucault (a likely candidate for the practice squad)

LB Adarius Glanton (a possible addition to the practice squad if he clears waivers)

LB Brian Blechen

WR Damiere Byrd (probable to practice squad)

 

Here's the observer article where they're tracking cuts:

I haven't exactly been enamored with Cotchery due to last year, but I'm open to exploring all options.

Lol okay, I'll see you guys when he gets released any minute.

Not saying he won't, but knowing our staff, I wouldn't be surprised if they keep him, Fozzy, and Wegher, or Fozzy gets cut (based off of preseason performance vs the other two), unless they're able to secure another receiver they like. 

With them cutting Bersin AND Lucas it means a spot opened up somewhere else for the time being.

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out. 
    • Hiring Shula & his Cam save us playbook.
    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
