Preseason Game 4 - Who made the team?


TheSpecialJuan

Recommended Posts

Hood didn’t play so I think he made it... so CAP or Barner if we keep 4?

Barner returned better than Byrd so I would say Barner stays over Byrd if we have to choose between a 4th running back or 6th receiver,.. 

Kyle Allen made a case for number 2, he looked poised and on point for the last half of the game... the other two SUCK,..they suck....

not sure about the rest.

Also didn't play against Pats. I don't see how he can make the team. If Rivera keeps him as one of "his guys", it's a slap in the face to everyone else that has fought tooth and nail to try to make the team.

Believe Rivera made a statement this week that insinuated he was safe in terms of making the team... not something to get excited about, but he probably is still one of the best CB's on the team unfortunately.

The DB group reminds me of the WR group in 2014.  A solid rookie with a lot of potential in Jackson, and a collection of other guys.  Except maybe Bradberry, who I think can bounce back.

Certainly not a group that inspires a lot of confidence.  Hopefully our Front 7 can mitigate some of their deficiencies.

Doss has looked like one of the better CBs this whole preseason and should make it over Seymour.

on 53

- Damiere Byrd 

- Andre Smith

- Bryan Cox jr

CUT

- Blaine Clausell

- Daeshon Hall

- Chris Manhertz to IR  - we go with 2 TE's

I'm excited about the potential of Smith and Cox, and Byrd has proven his worth as a returner and as a WR

Clausell is garbage, although I think he has a shot to make the initial 53 and maybe even last a few weeks b/c of depth and injuries.

Hall has been a disappointment, although I hope we could stash him on PS and develop him.  

I can see no reason to keep Manhertz when Armah is a superior blocking and Thomas has infinite more potential

Doss got caught up in a numbers crunch on a loaded Denver secondary and then cut to make a point, but yeah I think he has more potential than Seymour.  Seymour has seemed to regress most of time here

This final game has shown me we should only carry 5 CBs in Bradberry, Jackson, Captain, Elder and Doss so that we can carry an 11th lineman. It'll actually be 10, but Williams will count for 24 hours until we are allowed to put him on IR if we plan on bringing him back this season. 

LT: Matt Kalil - Blaine Clausell
LG: Greg Van Roten - (Brendan Mahon)
C: Ryan Kalil - Tyler Larsen
RG: Trai Turner - #Jeremiah Sirles# 
RT: Taylor Moton - #Adam Bisnowaty# - +Darryl Williams+

* = Draft Pick
# = Free Agent
() = Undrafted Free Agent
+ = IR Designated to Return

    • I feel the same way. Bryce hasn't proven himself to be so good that he would clearly lap anyone that we'd bring in the compete for the starting job. I think the team is actually afraid to do that. If Bryce goes down does anyone think Kenny Pickett is solid option to replace him?. We can control him for 2026 and 2027. The problem is 2028. Unless he takes a massive leap forward ability wise, I don't see how Carolina can justify paying B.Y. $50 million a year. So far, Bryce has not shown that he can CONSISTENTLY carry a team. He needs to be carried by a strong offensive line, running game, pass catchers and a respectable defense. If he's lacking any of those things I don't think we can make the playoffs in 2026/2027 unless the NFC South is as bad (or worse) than 2025. Unfortunately, athletes and agents have EGOs! When he has a chance for a 2nd contract his management team will probably insist on a "market deal" and feel insulted if they don't get one. That leaves a couple of options if his play hasn't significantly improved. 1) Let him walk and test the market. 2) Franchise him for the 2028 season if you're still not sure about what to do. 3) Extend him to a team friendly deal that pays him below the "current market" which would allow the team to continue to build a solid team to support him. 4) Over pay him and pretty much ruin any chance of becoming a consistent contender. The last option is the LEAST DESIRABLE ONE. The 2026 season is a pivotal season for Bryce and the Carolina Panthers. The success of the next 5-7 years could ultimately be decided on how well plays the next 2 seasons.  
    • Thank god BigKat can't buy it because I'd be gone immediately 
    • Drake Maye ended up putting almost 300 on them lol. Bryce was stunned from the beginning to end. I know that's an easy comp for the Bryce truthers but no one else put up those puny QB stats against them all season long.
