WR1 Kelvin Benjamin

WR2/3 Devin Funchess

WR2/3 Russell Shepard

WR3/4 with WR2 Upside: Curtis Samuel

WR5 Damiere Byrd

 

PS: WR Austin Duke, WR Keyarris Garrett

My only change would be Clay to PS.

I don't know if Byrd ultimately gets it but he is ever so slightly in front of Bersin right now IMO. Will see how they make out over the next two preseason games

Good with that, though I think it's at least possible Clay makes the regular roster over Byrd (not willing to say it's likely)

Will depend on what they show in upcoming games.

Second this. I don't think we keep more than 5 WR's since Webb is the defacto 6th WR.

Plus, it gives us the ability to keep 5 RB's (Stew, CMC, CAP, Fozzy, & Darrel Young as FB).  Hopefully we can sneak Armah on the practice squad.  I like his potential a lot.

KB

Funch

Shepard

Samuel

Byrd

seem the very obvious top 5 at this point.

Bersin doesn't have PS eligibility as far as I know, so he COULD be #6, IF we keep 6, or perhaps he gets cut and we keep him on speed dial in case of injuries (I doubt he gets picked up by another team... his value is primarily in his knowledge of our offense and his rapport with Cam.  Don't think he'd be such a desireable pick up for other teams)  With Samuel seemingly on the mend, I'm beginning to think we only keep 5 WRs, however.

Clay is also intriguing for speed / returns.   I think he has a strong case for the PS.

Austin Duke is also possibly a PS candidate.  His being a local feel-good story from the Charlotte 49ers may help his case.

Finch

Shep

Samuel

Bird

Duke and Garret on the PS.

I think Duke & Clay have more upside that Garrett.  I was excited when we got him last year, but I haven't seen enough to warrant even PS unless they want to keep a big receiver if KB or Funchess goes down.

      ProFootballFocus: NFL Week 16: Rookie Team of the Week

      By TheSpecialJuan · Posted

      Wide Receiver: Tetairoa McMillan, Carolina Panthers – 85.3 One of the more shocking developments of the 2025 NFL season has been the Carolina Panthers’ ascension to the top of the NFC South, which they achieved with Sunday’s win over the Buccaneers. Perhaps nobody has made a bigger difference than former eighth overall pick Tetairoa McMillan, who continued to be a steady presence in the Panthers’ offense. McMillan caught six passes for 73 yards and a touchdown in the win Tight End: Mitchell Evans, Carolina Panthers – 91.1 Evans only saw the field for 16 snaps, but he was efficient in his limited playing time. He caught all three of his targets for 23 yards on just six receiving snaps while also grading well in pass protection (72.2 grade) and as a run-blocker (68.4) Edge Defender: Nic Scourton, Carolina Panthers – 77.9 The former second-rounder out of Texas A&M has been a force along the Panthers’ defensive line, and he was a key contributor in Carolina’s huge win over the Buccaneers. Scourton recorded two stops as a run-defender and added another while in coverage. Scourton also tallied his sixth sack of the year while contributing another pressure to the mix Safety: Lathan Ransom, Carolina Panthers – 75.7 Another Carolina Panther on this week’s list, Ransom has typically been stronger in run defense — he carries an 85.2 grade in that field on the season. But Sunday against the Buccaneers was his best day in coverage. Ransom intercepted his only target, which wound up being the game-winner that put the Panthers in the driver’s seat in the NFC South
