The Panthers have waived TE Richie Brockel from injured reserved.

Brockel was on the IR, so I don't think anyone was signed, nor are we making room for anyone, unless there's some rule I don't know about numbers of players who can be on the IR for a team in the season.  We've got a pretty long list, but I imagine most teams do by this point in the season.

I assume this was just a recognition that he's not likely to get a roster space next year, and cutting dead weight on the roster.

don't we have to make room for Charles Johnson coming back sometime soon?

Ah, yes, that is true.  Gonna be a tough call.

I wonder if Delaire could be sent to the PS?  That's my best guess honestly.

Other possibilities: maybe Simonson?  Or Bersin again....  Norwood??  Given the trade for him, he's almost like a "draft pick" so I doubt we'd waive him.   We already waived Horton this season when we had to call up extra Oline depth from the PS.  Doubt we'd waive him again either.  He's a valuable player.

I doubt they'd risk waiving Marlowe or Wegher after holding on to them for so long on the 53 even if they're not playing this season.

    • Its completely and utterly bootlicking at this point.  If you cannot acknowledge that using 3 picks on a rb with a torn acl in the 2nd round isnt a bad pick then you simply havent a clue about football.  Sorry man it is what it is.  And its insanely laughable you are trying to strawman this argument using other players.  And what fuging facts are you bringing that is justifing morgan using 3 goddamn picks on him?  I cannot wait to hear that.
    • Scourton's interviews are telling to me that it's only a matter of time before he could really put it together.  His limitation tool-wise that I see is in his bend, but at the leaner size, it looks like it wasn't a problem at Purdue.   He has a good moveset and reads leverages very well (vet level well).  Plays both the speed/quickness (great change of direction) and has a power game with good hand usage.  Moves from what I've seen in my digs: I'm seeing cross-chop, fake crossers into bull, bull rush, spin (his preferred move of choice), hand shuck.  He's not unrefined by any means.   If he can do 2 things---I'm feeling confident from seeing his interviews that we have a real dude on our hands: 1) Diversifying his moveset/how it's deployed - Over-reliant on some, but again, he has a growing palette.  And is already great with his hands so things are in-place to coach up. 2) Developing a counter moveset and starting to play the chess game with an OT - He's very good at reading leverage, knowing when to change things up during a play.  But NFL coaching should start to teach him how to really create a plan based on an opponent.  What to throw at a guy first, how to confuse with fakes/counters, etc.  How to play against these tackles as a game progresses.   Overall, he has some things that give me serious optimism: Run Defense, speed moves, power moves, he's super young and has the size/length.  When you really spell it all out, I think we should get excited.  Temper expectations from a stat sheet standpoint, but he should be able to go in and make an impact.
