OK, time to sound off like you got a pair. Who is the 2017 surprise veteran cut?

Not to bring G-man up again, but Hunter Henry should have been a Panther.  

There are those poignant moments in life when you just have to do what makes perfect sense. To me, G-man had two. One was acquiring Jared Veldheer (yes, at the expense of Hardy), and the other was drafting Hunter Henry last year. We would have had our long term guy, plus had the real ability to exploit two-te sets like we used to when Shockey was here.

Had we drafted Henry last year and then added CMC this year...

I don't want to think about how much fun that would have been to watch.

Derek Anderson was unbelievably bad yesterday. I honestly wouldn't mind going with Webb as the #2. At least with Webb we retain mobility at the position. 

Funchess... he's still not showing anything.

Jones and Dickson shouldn't be on the roster but we're so weak in depth at those positions they'll likely make it by default.

I don't think Shepherd is a lock. He hasn't done anything yet. The one thing that he has going for him is his contract. There's virtually no savings cutting him this year.

    • Incorrect, I have watched us consistently over quite a number of years. When I say Cam relied on athleticism, I simply mean his dual threat style and athleticism overshadowed the deficiencies in the passing game (his own or those created by the system).  Now I wouldn’t disagree that our OCs over that time were not amazing and arguably held him back, but correct me if I’m wrong, Cam had a habit of locking onto his receivers and overthrowing them. Gettleman even drafted two big receivers - Kelvin Benjamin and Devin Funchess - to give Cam receivers with a big catch radius.  Again, correct me if I’m wrong, but Cam had some mechanical issues. For example, the reliance on arm strength over touch and his footwork often led to him throwing off the back foot. There were many debates on these boards about his mechanics, with far more knowledgeable posters than I braking down what he needed to improve on. End of the day, I was as big a Cam fan as the next person, but he did have his shortcomings as a passer. Had he played under someone like Sean McVay or a similar offensive guru, with a high quality QB coach, then I’m sure they would have ironed out the kinks and he would have been far more dangerous and successful than he was. And that’s a scary thought of what he could have been under the likes of a McVay! 
    • It's true that we are not scoring at a much higher clip than the Saints. They're averaging ~18.4 with Shough and in that same span we're averaging ~19, so pretty close, despite Bryce having better TD numbers over that period. Both our teams are a far, far cry from the NFL average of 23.3...
    • I like when this big kat is going crazy panther fan and not the pat jersey betting against persona.
