53 Man Roster - Cuts - What Do You Think?

This year is different than the past because there is only one cut day.  All cuts will be done at once to get to 53.  In the past there were a couple of cut-down days to reduce the roster until teams get to their final 53.  I haven't been a proponent of this new rule.  I liked being able to slowly reduce the roster size by having multiple cut days.  

My biggest argument for this is: With less people on the practice field the more reps potential roster guys get.  This is huge in my opinion.  This year is an outlier for us because of Cam's shoulder but in a normal universe the time for QBs and WRs to get comfortable is incalculable. The time for new guys to learn a defense is needed.  These coaches know who isn't going to make the team...go ahead and release them. 

The counter-argument is: Someone can impress after the 3rd preseason game.  This in my opinion is rare unless injuries play a part but at that point they know who they want or can fill in.

What say you Huddle?

      OFFICIAL 2026 Undrafted Free Agent Thread

      Any idea what happened to him at LSU? im reading that he was considered a 1st round pick in 2023, had an off 2024 season with only 4 sacks but was also on a horrible FSU team then went to LSU where he was supposed to be on an aggressive defense that should have given him a lot of sacks but he only ended up with one….   was he injured? Did the top SEC competition expose him? What happened? Cause this guy was considered a top prospect .

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.
