Panthers uneasy with Gano

We should be. He hasn’t kicked most of preseason and a regular season game is in two weeks. I know we won’t cut him because it doesn’t do anything with the cap but I’m also anxious about Slye taking over if we put gano on IR. We really botched this situation.

Like I said in the other thread, I think the situation is playing out where we carry two kickers on the very first 53 and then immediately IR Gano with designation to return.  Slye does well, Gano stays on IR.  Slye crashes and burns, we bring Gano back when he's healthy and cut Slye.

If Slye does really well for the entire season, we then cut Gano next spring.

Yep. Seems like a pretty likely scenario IMO.

Best case... But that fact alone leaves most of us feeling it won't happen lol I fear I am seeing Butker all over again

Are we limited with the amount of guys we can bring back from IR? I hate to burn one of those on a kicker.

Lol. Water is wet.

It is good to see they are actually considering this. We messed up already and let a really good kicker go. I'm hopeful they can make a better decision this time. I do not feel the same confidence as last time we had this possibility, I was a lot more certain last time.

    • Me, signing up for FanDuel Network, and then canceling FanDuel Network:
    • Smith-Wade for me. He has the path to some decent hefty snaps in Evero’s scheme. He held his own last year and improved as he continued to get snaps— If he makes some strides, could be a very capable nickel.  I agree with Sanders. Bryce had some trust in him that final Falcons game post crazy head-stand.  Bryce looked for him a lot that final game and made some critical catches to get us the W. Seems he’s put in major work so I’m hopeful about him.  Wallace will have an offseason under his belt. I like him a lot, was higher graded than most remember in his draft (I.e Brugler had him LB3/70 overall) but he isn’t as cerebral of an LB as we’re used to. I think he could thrive if we get D captain/film-junky type next to him— because right now that’s Jewell.  Still a bit cautious but love the talent. Rozeboom may snag some playing time from him if he’s still working out the kinks.
    • Didnt Canales already say starters are playing in the pre season? either way extra reps dont hurt but im not one of those people that think playing in the pre season would have saved Bryce from an awful start.
