This game made it official. CAP ran with purpose and authority along with the prettiest juke of the preseason. Its nice to see a player progress each year, unlike funchess who remains his stagnant poo self. CAP needs to be on the 53.

CMC can take care of all of the fozzy screen catches plus more, so theres no reason for him anymore. With Stew looking slow and stiff, CAP is the closest thing to a bruising back we have. I'm sure Ron will make the decision a lot harder than it should be though when Fozzy has a good 4th preseason game in garbage time.

Fozzy has been a decent change of pace back for the panthers over the years. Now that we have CMC the only purpose for Fozzy is his backup. If CMC gets injured then we could re-sign Fozzy otherwise I don't believe we need him.

 

I do believe we need Cap. He is basically JStews backup. Stewart has a history of injuries, is older and has a high salary for his position. I'm not saying they should cut him this season but we should have insurance if he gets injured. CAP is that guy. He can possibly be Stewart's replacement and be our #2 RB behind CMC.

I have NEVER understood the hype for Fozzy. He had ONE GOOD PLAY against the Cards, and nothing else. He has never even been a good receiving back for us. I can't even count on one hand the amount of plays he's made for us. Dude is the definition of a jag who can be easily replaced.

To this point, I'm really wondering who makes the roster. If it was me making the choice right now , I'd say

HBs in order of starting position : McCaffrey, Stewart, Artis-Payne

FBs :  Young , Armah 

I think its worth it to keep Armah on the active roster and get rid of a 4th running back

You may have a point since they are using Young as a running back at times. I think they see Armah is too valuable to cut but needs a little more time to grow.

Fozzy has multiple roles(backup RB who can catch passes and play special teams). That is why he always sticks around. If CAP contributed to special teams, it would be a no brainer to keep him over Fozzy.

I agree. I appreciate all he's done, but just like Tolbert, it's time to move on

This is one thing I personally believe Gettlemen was good at. He  would cut you in a heart beat if you weren't producing where as it seems our owner and current GM wants to be loyal to players and give them money to stay regardless of production or age. I understand both sides of thier methods but the way I see it is the NFL is a buisness and it's all about winning. You can't win giving big contracts to old unproductive players.

      Preseason Week 3 - vs. Pittsburgh (practice tweets, discussion, etc)

      By raleigh-panther · Posted

      They had best show out in Week 1 there are zero,I mean zero,  excuses for that offense  defense, haven’t play together yet and they still have Mr Soft and Predictable as DC  I expect break downs at times  …but that offense returns all starters except Tremble and both Mayes and Brady are veterans and can play LG and know the system not up for any participation awards this season they can save that practice energy for Jacksonville.     I’m sick of the, winning,  or looking competitive, when it doesn’t matter.

      There are some tough decisions that I'm eager to see the results of... Does Blackshear sneak on to the roster as RB4? Does the team go with 4 TEs or just 3 again? And has Mitchell Evans done enough to defend his roster spot from James Mitchell? Who is WR6 and is there a WR7? TMac, XL, Coker, and AT seem to be locks imo and I'm assuming Renfrow also makes it due to all of the camp praise. Who makes it between Brycen Tremayne, Jimmy Horn Jr, and David Moore? If the team goes with 7 WRs, which one of those three doesn't make it? Jacolby George and Emani Bailey both have not gotten a lot of game time. Could the Panthers be trying to hide them so that they can be stashed on the PS? Do they go with 10 OL instead of 9? Who makes it out of Walton, Carter, and Kingston? DL locks are DB, BB3, ARob, and Turk. That leaves Jaden Crumedy, Cam Jackson, Sam Roberts, Shy Tuttle, and LaBryan Ray all competing for the final 1 - 3 spots. Does DJ Johnson get IR'd and Thomas Incoom make the roster as EDGE5? What in the fuuuuuuuuuuuuck is going to happen at LB? Only locks are Wallace, Rozeboom, and Cherelus (Wallace has mentioned in media how Cherelus has been big bro for him on the team) seem to be locks. Rhattigan had some good moments against Houston, Martin-Scott is an SC guy, Krys Barnes has popped on defense and on special teams, and Windmon got time starting for the team last season. Are two of those guys going to make it or are the Panthers poaching from another team's cuts? CB5... who is it? Do they go with the 4 expected safeties or bring in a 5th? Has Ransom done enough to take the start from Nick Scott?

      I had this discussion with my buddy yesterday afternoon. If we start this season very slow(especially with the schedule being what it is) and then "rally" in the second half to get to 4-7 wins, I am already gonna be pretty heated at the staff overall. I know we are a very bad roster but I am not gonna keep excusing these slow season starts WITH late season rallies. That's a coaching staff problem, IMO. It's more excusable to just stink gate to gate, IMO. At least you can understand why.
