I dont see why not.. we went with a rookie rb right out the gate with cmcsa. These kids will be backups and very little of that if it looks like last year. Cmc played more snaps than anybody in the league so I wouldn't think having rookie backups would hurt.

Not a good comparison at all considering that CMC was a top 10 pick while Scarlett is a 5th rounder and Holyfield is a UDFA. It's also not really accurate to say that "we went with a rookie RB right out of the gate" with CMC either. He split time with Stewart. CMC had 197 total touches in 16 games while Stewart had 206 in 15 games.

yea to my memory there were games where CMC barely got any carries at all  in 2017 and that was with him being a number 8 overall draft pick.

      Jamaree Salyer would be an excellent signing. I hope we are looking at him.

      BREAKING: Panthers sign QB Kenny Pickett

      By djp14 · Posted

      The Panthers are Pickett's 5th team in 5 years. Howell's next team will be his 5th. I don't think the league thinks that much of either of them. They're just warm bodies, at this point.

      10 players I wouldn't mind the Panthers signing that are still available:  - CB Nate Hobbs (Packers): Was just released this morning. Could be a very solid nickel upgrade for us.  - CB Kader Kohou (Dolphins): Solid slot corner who shouldn't break the bank and could be an upgrade over Chau Smith-Wade.  - OT Jamaree Salyer (Chargers): Had an underrated year with the Chargers (68.2 PFF pass block grade, 61.5 run block grade) and is still young enough (25) to continue developing.  - OT Jawaan Taylor (Chiefs): Depending on price, could be a good short-term option at LT while we figure things out long-term.  - WR Jauan Jennings (49ers): If we're going to add a FA receiver, I think Jennings makes a lot of sense but the price may be a bit too high for a slot receiver.  - WR John Metchie III (Jets): A cheaper option at slot receiver who has experience playing with Bryce at Alabama. Low risk/high reward type signing.  - WR Calvin Austin III (Steelers): Likely an "in between" option relative to Jennings and Metchie, but another solid option in the slot.  - LB Leo Chenal (Chiefs): I think we'll target another starting ILB in the draft, but we could also opt to pair Chenal with Devin Lloyd and check that need off the list early.  - OC Matt Hennessy (49ers): Could be a decent stop-gap starter at center and solid depth if nothing else.  - OC Andre James (Chargers): Was a backup last year for the Chargers (for some reason; he couldn't have been worse than what they had starting) but was solid for the Raiders the year before.
