There are currently 12 wide receivers on the roster. The Panthers will likely keep 6. 

 

IMO, There are only three locks. 

DJ Moore

Robby Anderson

Terrace Marshall

 

That Leaves 9 guys fighting for 3 spots. 

Omar Bayless

Ventell Bryant

Ishmael Hyman

Keith Kirkwood

Marken Michel

David Moore

Micah Simon

Shi Smith

Brandon Zylstra

 

I believe the Panthers are big on Zylstra but I am not ready to call him a lock. Also, Shi Smith likely has a leg up on the rest.

Whoever is willing and able to return kicks and/or punts will be there. Which one of those guys is brave enough?

I think willingness to play special teams is going to be a huge deal for making the team with Rhule. He wants football guys who are hungry, aren't divas and are willing to buy in. He wants guys who give more than just a warm body in the receivers room and a choice seat by the Gatorade table.

And I'm not sure we even keep 6. We may go in with five receivers considering how many linemen we have to rotate on offense and defense.

Could be. I am not sure a Joe Brady offense can tolerate less than 6 though.

I think David Moore is a near lock, and Shi Smith not too far behind.

I think the final spot comes down to Brandon Zlystra vs. Keith Kirwood unless one of these other guy balls out so much in TC they can't deny them.

I know Brady likes Kirkwood from the Saints days, but I think Zylstra is more versatile and a good ST player,, and thus a better use of a roster spot.

Add Shi Smith because he is too talented to let go.

Add David Moore because he has NFL experience.

Add Omar Bayless because he flashed last camp, and is likely better and is younger than Zylstra.

      Bryce Young #34 on Chris Simms' top 40 list

      By frankw · Posted

      Even all the rookie QB's who haven't played a single snap ranked above him? I really hope Bryce is using all this as motivation in some capacity. Because if this doesn't motivate him I don't know what will.

      Of course. That’s what I said. Bad goalie play and the style of defense. Florida played amazing.  Rods decision to stick with a struggling Freddie cost us. Plus, Florida may be more talented than us and they play a very heavy game. Something we don’t do well minus Svech.  Glad the rangers lost.

      For Bryce Young and Dave Canales, the emphasis is on details

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      You should because before the preseason fiasco and the start of the season fiasco, all the reports, including Frank’s responses, were that Fitterer and Reich were in lock step. Remember the press conference where Fitterer talked about both he and Frank saying who they wanted before and after the draft process and that they both picked Young and it was glorious? People got hung up on Tepper saying the point guard analogy in April when Brown was interviewed by a Panthers reporter describing how a QB needs to be a point guard in huge detail. That was in February. I think Tepper was just parroting Brown to make himself look like he knew what he was doing. Mrs. Tepper hugging Bryce always overshadowed CJ saying how he called her Mama Tepp. We fuged up as a team, probably more so because Fitterer always said he had Young as his #1 the year before, probably because we looked at all the QBs that year as well. Reich’s love for CJ started when he got on the hot seats for frankly doing a horrific job. He's been in the league a long time and has a lot of media friends and that was a face saving CYA which we know well with many years of Hurney. Still amazing to think how much better the team was under Rhule/Hurney before Fitterer got any control when Rhule was on the hot seat.
