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.

      Okay, now face the facta guyd

      No, it will be a raw 6'7" 17-year-old European who just played basketball for the first time in March and who the idiot GM "had first on our board." He'll play the whole G-League season, get in 42 games for the Hornets and average 1.1 ppg on 35% shooting. Been there, seen that.

      JJ Jansen on tanking

      By ForJimmy · Posted

      We missed on Burns at his peak value. That’s the problem with trading for picks 2-3 years away (which people were convinced the Rams would suck by now and these would be higher picks btw). Each year away the pick is the further in value it drops. Fitt was clearly hired based on turning us around quickly. It’s one of the many reasons tanking isn’t really a thing as our player JJ is telling you in this original article. It would take the whole organization from the owners down admitting they aren’t winning soon with Burns and picks 2-3 years away having more value because that’s when we are still rebuilding. It would only make sense if Fitt had a longer leash and would more than likely be the ones making these picks anyway which you wouldn’t want. The question is would you rather have those Rams picks with the strong possibility of Fitt still being here or would you rather Fitt try to “win now” like he did and expedite his firing? Altering the timeline would affect more than just the Rams picks.

      Potential changes to playoff seeding

      By HaricotVert · Posted

      I dont buy the idea that it would create more competitive games Given this: Seed Current Format Record Proposed Open Seeding Record 1 Lions 15–2 Lions 15–2 2 Eagles 14–3 Eagles 14–3 3 Buccaneers 10–7 Vikings 14–3 4 Rams 10–7 Commanders 12–5 5 Vikings 14–3 Rams 10–7 6 Commanders 12–5 Buccaneers 10–7 7 Packers 11–6 Packers 11–6 That would mean Wild Card round would have been Eagles (14/3) v  Pack(11/6) Vikings(14/3) v Bucs(10/7) Commanders(12/5) v Rams(10/7) Instead of Eagles (14/3) v  Pack(11/6) Bucs(10/7) v Commanders(12/5) Rams(10/7) v Vikings(14/3) Then with the reseed it would mean that highest remaining seed would always draw the lowest remaining team.
