Brown's previously unreported procedure is arguably the biggest setback among the group. The Panthers will keep at most six receivers on their final 53-man roster. Kelvin Benjamin, Devin Funchess and Ted Ginn Jr. are locks. That leaves Brown in a bunch that includes Brenton Bersin, Stephen Hill, Kevin Norwoodand undrafted free agent Keyarris Garrett.

Looks like Bill and I are in agreement on who are locks at receiver and who is not. 

[Khaki Lackey]

Hopefully Corey Brown doesn't take his spot.

The thing about Philly, if we let him walk and Ted gets hurt, we have no speed to blow the top off.

I really don't see Brown getting cut.  It's not a 100% guarantee, but it'd shock me.

Stephen Hill

Why would it shock anyone?

Never understood this obsession with Philly's speed.  I've never been blown away with his speed.  He looks quicker than fast to me.  Ginn would blow his doors off in a foot race.

brown and garrett get roster spots imo, unless garrett just sucks butt in camp.

not really a big win or loss for the WR6 spot no matter how it shakes out, though bersin seems to be the best candidate by a good bit based on performance.

ran a 4.51 at the combine. Not great for a guy his size.

When was last Philly left a DB in dust? Just completely blew by him?

 

Philly isn't really a deep threat,

He was fast in comparison to the rest of our glacial 2014 WR group so I think it comes from that but he isn't anywhere near fast for an NFL WR.

There were some big plays against Houston, GB, Arizona and Tampa Bay and one in the Super Bowl. I'm not saying he's a great deep threat, just the best one besides Ginn that I'm aware of,

Stephen Hill 

 

I've never seen Hill play but if you're excited about him that's encouraging.

I like Philly. I hope he pulls through and makes the squad. That being said, if Garret is the real deal and Hill heals up and improves, sorry Phillis...
