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.

      The Bryce Young "Game Winning Drive" narrative needs to end

      By GoobyPls · Posted

      I agree with OP notion, QBs always get credited for game winning drives even if they do minimal. Just last night Caleb got credited for a GE drive when they basically ran the ball the whole drive and only had to go 36 yards.   And there are drives where Bryce could of had a game winning drive if not for a Legette drop vs Philly or a Chubba fumble vs Tampa

      You are actually, genuinely comparing Bryce to Jimmy fuging Pickles? Jimmy accounted for 3 touchdowns in his 10 starts in 2010. In Bryce’s 10 games post benching last year, he accounted for 20 touchdowns. Jimmy threw three touchdowns in 2010. Three. Bryce has thrown 10 touchdowns through 6 games. He is currently on track to throw for 3300 yards, 28 touchdowns and 14 interceptions. Wtf are we even talking about anymore. I mean seriously

      Tepper? The guy that directs the coaches towards goals that he set for them… that guy. He is the one.    I don’t think he ever was going to be expelled from class, they had him come in for garbage time maybe the 2nd week he was benched.  I will say this. People said he wasn’t under pressure the last part of the year when he did better, but he was fighting for his career and that’s pressure. And he saved his career too. I don’t reject him for those kinds of things I reject him for the physical things. I have always brought it down to he has slim margin for error and has to be perfect. People with the tool set have a little fatter margin for error. Why make it harder on yourself? Got nothing to do with hating him.  I am no statistician but game that margin thing out a lot and see how that works.
