At wide receiver, behind starters Kelvin Benjaminicon-article-link.gif and Devin Funchessicon-article-link.gif are Russell Shepardicon-article-link.gif and Brenton Bersinicon-article-link.gif, who has enjoyed a productive training camp. Second-round draft choice Curtis Samuelicon-article-link.gif, who has missed the majority of camp with a hamstring injury, is listed behind those four.

Charles Johnson and Mario Addisonicon-article-link.gif are listed as the starters at defensive end, with Julius Peppersicon-article-link.gif listed behind Johnson.

First-round pick Christian McCaffreyicon-article-link.gif is listed behind Jonathan Stewarticon-article-link.gif at running back, and is listed at the top punt returner. Running back Fozzy Whittakericon-article-link.gif is listed as the top kick returner, ahead of Damiere Byrdicon-article-link.gif and Samuel.

The second-team offensive line from left to right: left tackle Amini Silatoluicon-article-link.gif, guard Dan Franceicon-article-link.gif, center Tyler Larsenicon-article-link.gif, guard Chris Scotticon-article-link.gif and rookie right tackle Taylor Motonicon-article-link.gif.

Chris Manhertzicon-article-link.gif is listed as the third tight end, behind Greg Olsenicon-article-link.gif and Ed Dicksonicon-article-link.gif.

Manhertz camp is paying off, and Larsen has solidified his #2 center role. 

Fozzy still is gonna be a returner. Sigh.

And ya boi Bersin is your Carolina Panther WR4. 

Lol.

    • That can be a chicken or the egg scenario. Canales knows what the QB is good at and is not good at better than we do.  He would have reasons for not calling deep shots, if he is holding back. They could include protection concerns, as well as any Young related motivations.  I think there always the chance Bryce doesn’t see the man open down the field and it is just that simple, more than a confidence issue. Probably a mix of the two.   
    • This is a partially bad take.  Willis is the only guy mentioned here that can reasonably be expected to perform at a level higher than Bryce.  Winston and Minshew is washed, and Howell was not good in Washington as a starter and didn’t field a single snap this past year. I swear the only reason people are obsessed over him is that he went to UNC.  You’re not going to have better success, or even potential for success with those guys as your QB as you would with Bryce. Now, if you want to argue this thing from a production per dollars perspective, that it’d be better to roll with one of them instead because we could allocate the savings elsewhere on the roster, that’d be a better argument IMO. I’d disagree with it; relying on a QB making less they $5MM/year that isn’t on a rookie contract is not a winning strategy.  But I could see the argument that it’s possibly a viable alternative to Bryce on a $25MM/year contract.    But no, none of those QBs are better than Bryce. 
    • No team hits on every pick.  Every coach and GM will eventually get fired.   We are a better team and have greatly increased the talent on the roster. Bad GMs lead to losses.   I love the teams current setup in the front office and the process in how we look at talent and coaching.  Canales has often said we want to have a player developmental philosophy as a core tenant.  I love that combined with cutting edge analytics and good football knowledge and experience.
