Looks like the full list is up at Panthers.com

CHARLOTTE – Wide receiver Brenton Bersin heads four contributors from Carolina's 2014 season who are poised to join the Panthers' practice squad after agreeing to contract terms with the team.

Bersin, linebacker Adarius Glanton, cornerback Carrington Byndom and offensive tackle David Foucault are among the 10 players agreeing to terms. All 10, including a pair of rookies in wide receiver Damiere Byrd and linebacker Brian Blechen, were with the Panthers throughout the preseason and were on Carolina's 75-man roster before it was cut to 53 on Saturday.

UM, Carrington Byndom is a CB, not a WR.  LOL!

[KB_fan]

Must have been a Freudian slip, they're dreaming of WRs.... so turning Corners into receivers in their imaginations!

Damn no Teery Redden I was pulling for him he looked great.

Yeah, that's something of a surprise.

Full list added to OP.

Blechen my least favorite name on the list, but I confess I didn't pay much attention to his play.  I just don't really think we need yet more LBs...!  Rather see an OLine or DLine or secondary guy on here instead.

[Toker Smurf]

Replace Blechen and Byndom with Redden and Ward and I'd be really happy.

How did Chas Alecxih make it over Redden?

[jdpanther5]

Would've liked to see Lucas again too, he and Redden seem like the biggest omissions.

Here are Bill Voth's brief comments about the PS members:

http://blackandbluereview.com/carolina-panthers-2015-practice-squad/

• WR Brenton Bersin – Makes sense to keep around the WR who knows the offense best; spent all of 2013 on practice squad.
• WR Damiere Byrd – Raw, but showed potential all spring and summer.
• TE Scott Simonson – Does a lot of things well, but not great.
• OT David Foucault – Project Canada continues.
• DE Rakim Cox – Flashed in preseason against backups, but often overmatched versus better competition.
• DT Chas Alecxih – A bit of a surprise he got a spot over Terry Redden.
• LB Brian Blechen – Converted college safety had a quiet camp.
• LB Adarius Glanton – After he played in 12 games as an undrafted rookie, this was likely one of the tougher cuts.
• CB Carrington Byndom – Spent first 12 games on last year’s practice squad before getting called up for five appearances, including the playoffs.
• CB Lou Young – Had some nice moments in May, but hamstring injury in camp killed his chances.

Was hoping to see Lucas and Ward go on the practice squad

Yea, what the hell. I'd rather take on either one of those "projects" than foucault.
