My early depth chart of the Panthers atm

*5/3/16: CHECK BLOG FOR UPDATED CHART*

This is how I see where we stand right now. I believe Garrett will take either Norwood's or Bersin's spot. Most likely Norwood since Bersin is at least dependable at catching the ball. O-line depth is lacking.

I also think Boykin is our best outside guy atm then moving inside on nickel and dime packages with McClain or a rookie going outside. I don't think we throw a rookie to the wolves on the outside full time unless he greatly impresses during preseason. At safety, with Coleman's versatility, I think he goes to SS and Boston at FS. Cash and Marlowe backing up. The only thing lacking on D is LB depth.

I hope we add Boldin to our WR group. It would give us another sure-handed WR and we can use Ginn in the slot. We sorely need another WR with sure hands. Also, we should look at signing Scifres at punter. This is one overlooked position that is crucial to our field possession game.

Post your own too if you want. Would like to see others version as well.

I don't think all 3 of Fozzy, CAP, and Wegher make the final 53, I think we'll carry one less RB this year and have an extra CB or WR.

Fozzy was solid for us last year, but he's not a long term solution and I think we need to see what CAP and more importantly Wegher bring to the table in meaningful action.

I'm 100% on board with bringing in Boldin as a reliable pass catcher but more importantly, to replace Cotchery as the leader of a young and inexperienced recieving corps.

Ginn can't teach these young kids the nuances of playing the position, we need someone to step into Cotchery's role within that grouping and Boldin seems like a great fit

Something to watch in the coming few days.  After signing Beachum Joeckel is expendable and for a $6+ million one year salary they may have to trade him for a song.  We could absorb him as a one year rental/backup/tryout and if he does become half of the stud he was expected to be we can extend long term.  If not cut bait.

    • I can't help but think that you are equating physical attributes alone with wins. I don't subscribe to that thought. No one will argue that Young has a strong arm, but he makes up for it in other ways. The real limitation for him is he needs good route runners with great hands. That's why Young was so good at the end of the 24 season. Thielen and Coker were perfect receivers for him and he had his best games with them. Not having them to start the 25 season hurt. Look at the first 10 games in 25 with a rookie receiver and no Coker and then look at the final 7 games with a more experienced rookie and Coker back and there is a telling difference in Young's performance. Prior to week 10, Young had 1 game with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and 6 games with a rating below 90. In the last 7 games with Coker back, Young had 3 games with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and only 2 games with a rating below 90. The tools a QB has to work with matter more than their arm strength.  To go back to Darnold and Stafford, yes they both have great arm strength but neither had much success with that alone. As I already pointed out, Stafford, even with a canon for an arm, only had 4 winning seasons in his first 12 years. It was only when he went to the right environment that he had true success.
    • I don't love this role for him if I'm being totally honest The pregame show is much more flash than substance and doesn't seem like the right fit for what Luke would bring to the table, and that's his vision of the game. I'd like to see him do something where it more involves him breaking down film and explaining what he's seeing out there, as he sees the game in a way very few ever have.
