CBS sports has a list of possible veterans that could be cut on Saturday.   I saw about 7 that could be interesting for us.

https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/photos/2017-nfl-roster-cuts-the-biggest-name-in-danger-on-each-team/

Brook Reid DE Atlanta. - I know many think we could use more depth at DE due to our age.

Eric Winston - OT - Definitely could use depth or even start.

TJ Ward - S - Previously discussed and most would take him

Haloti Ngata DT - Would be an awesome add to a fearless DT line

Jah Reid OL - Didn't list as a tackle or guard but probably is skilled enough for both and would be great depth

Byron Maxwell CB - Once again we could use some depth at CB

Dante Jones DT - See Haloti Ngata

Thoughts?

I don't see how we wouldn't try for the offensive linemen.   We could use the depth.  You could also say the same for CB.

DE and DT would be gravy type players.  The would probably get better money elsewhere so coming to Carolina would be to win a championship.

For the right guys sure.  Winston?  Wow I didn't know he was still playing.  He was trash and washed up many moons ago, can't even fathom how bad he is now.

Ward, Winston, Maxwell, and Ngata, yes. Could use depth/true competition at these positions.

Ever stop to think that there's a reason these guys are getting released, and they may not be the same players they were a few years ago?

Doesn't seem to be the case with TJ Ward, why keep a guy around that you will lose/not pay next summer when hes a 31 year old free agent? They like what they see in their 2nd and 3rd string safeties to sacrifice some talent in an already deep secondary to get the young guys up to speed and more reps a year earlier. 

So I would be interested in Ward and maybe Maxwell, he played well last year but has looked bad once again in the preseason so I'm not sure which Maxwell you'd get.

As said before, not the case with Ward. Also, what's wrong with depth with experience? Seems that was a major issue last year with the o-line. Better safe than sorry IMO.

I really doubt anyone is going to start them willingly. But depth it could help.

      Grading the Panthers' 2026 Draft Class

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      Maybe a bit of a homer take but I can't give us a grade lower than A.   Freeling was arguably the best LT prospect in the draft.  His athletic ability is off the chart and at 6'7" that can move.  It was a no brainer pick.   Hunter's key word is Violence. Putting him next to Brown should scare an offensive coordinator. These two give Scourton and Phillips plenty of chances to get one on one opportunities. Brazzell, another tall receiver with sprinter speed.  Our WR room is filled with tall talented WR.  Brazzell is going to give us a WR that can take to roof off the defense.  Basically Jimmy Horn with size. W. Lee III has a nickname of the Blanket. (heard this on the Beleav podcast with J. Stewart)  What a great name.  A great value in the 5th round. Hecht A strong, fast and extremely smart center. Many had him listed as the best center in the draft.  He's most likely a starter sooner than later. Wheatley A good safety in round 5.  Someone who could see playing time.   Kuwatch  I love this pick.  At minimum he will be a key piece on special teams and with some good coaching he'll see some packages where he'll play.  His down piece is he doesn't stay up in the running game.  Good coaching will fix this.  He reminds me a bit of A.J. Klein.   All these picks were great value.  I believe everyone of them were graded higher than the pick we took them.   Dan Morgan is IMO doing a great job turning this team into a good team with great depth.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tbe · Posted

      Sure, that is possible. That’s what, an extra 55 yards a game on average and 7 more TDs? What if he’s just 15th?  I imagine they would extend him in that situation due to the belief that he’ll keep trending up. maybe a 3 year contract to prove he can be top 10? Sounds like a Tepper plan.
