How many of the 8 draft picks make the regular roster this season?

I say 6. The other 2 going on IR with minor injuries.

DJ Moore, Donte Jackson, Rashaan Gaulden, Ian Thomas, Marquis Haynes, and one of the remaining 3 picks (likely a linebacker)

I was on the fence with Marquis Haynes, but they moved up to take him, so he is making the roster. They have plans for him. Also it won't be difficult to crack the week 1 roster at linebacker with TD on suspension so one of Carter or Smith will also make it.

I’d say 5 plus 1UDFA who could be Bonnafon.  He is the perfect mirror for CMC. I think Norv will center the offense around him and If he goes down   we will need a versatile player who can play in the same system.  He will also be our Joe Webb on ST and emergency QB so we only carry two and save a roster spot.

Moore / Jackson / Gauleden / Haynes / Thomas - Locks 

Carter / Smith - I could see replacing special-teams players like Gachkar & Jacobs << No need to keep them as they possess no upside

Norton to PS - I think Love is still the best option as the 4th DT

So we traded Kelvin Benjamin for a linebacker who probably won't make the team. #Hurneymagic #GTFO

We used our other 3rd to trade back and take the tight end Thomas, so you could see it that way to stay positive, Ham soaked in Rum.

Huh? Why do you keep saying this (you said it in another thread)? It's inaccurate.

Linebacker, DT, TE, what's the difference when we could have gotten proven starter for a third rounder. I mean poo Dallas got Tavon for a 6th.

    • PJ's completion % was 63% when starting games in Carolina.  Which I believe is better than Bryce when starting.  And again, 4-3 as the starter here and the LONE QB Carolina has been able to actually win with in the Tepper era.  If you ask a gambling gunslinger to come into blowouts.....they are going to go down in a blaze of glory.  Which he would do.  Yeah, he isn't good.  And gunslingers are supposed to have rockier stats than checkdown QBs.   So....why does PJ Walker have a better comp % as a starter than Bryce Young.  And for every knock you want to make about PJ, you can find something or a skillset that PJ does better than Bryce.   I didn't say PJ had good field vision.  He doesn't.  Tell me about Bryce after he comes off the first read lol.  Let me repeat, PJ Walker is not a good QB.  He is NFL depth and an in house arm.  Bryce Young doesn't belong in a convo w/ Jake and Cam.  He belongs closer in a convo with the backup caliber QBs Carolina was forced into playing.  Which isn't just PJ Walker.  But Kyle Allen.  Moore.  Guys like that.   
    • Oh I see what you meant by memory. I will trust my memory, I have looked a a lot of those ball charts for Bryce and they trend a general pattern. They thing that has changed that I have noticed more recently is the reduction in the bunching of behind or at  the LOS passes over to his right.  Aside from the quantity of throws recently since the running game has become a more dominant factor. 
    • Yes but you basically said you are going from a quick skim of those charts without doing the same for Bryce and/or Andy. So you are going memory vs. snapshots. That's not going to be a very comprehensive analysis.
