He gets cut. There aren’t many Gettleman or Hurney picks that need to be on our roster. It’s time to get rid of players that accept mediocrity. 

Thomas will get 2.2 M in the last year of his deal.  So he could be cut and the team would have no dead money. 

I think he's gone and the Panthers put that money to use somewhere else on the roster.

I thought it was funny that when Tremble was drafted they ended up spending just as much time talking about Arnold as they did Tremble. Aquib Talib was praising him which means something to me because he was a great player who could cover the best tight ends.

Pretty sure the Tremble pick, at least initially, was made to save a roster spot.  Last year we carried both Alex Armah and Chris Manhertz.  Tremble can take the place of both in this offense.

Agreed. That’s his floor on the team. Promising guy & Arnold wil be the TE1

Exactly.  Don’t underestimate this in a 17 game season.   Rhule already pointed out that the wanted to rotate more DL and have better depth in the secondary for a 17 game season. 

Saving a spot there plus now carrying 55 instead of 53 players might mean a couple other rookies make the team.

Love this post. I think he's going to surprise a lot people in this offense next year

Love that our staff recognized our limitations in the red zone/ 3rd downs last year and went out and grabbed a guy to fix that. He's our best FA pick up on offense.

I still don’t get the Tremble hype. Arnold on the other hand seems like a underrated addition to this offense. Especially when u factor in opposing defenses will be focusing on all our other weapons. I could see him being a very nice contributor this year.

And we signed him for 2 years, $6M! Not too shabby.

    • I'm not a Bryce hater and I would 100% move on.  Especially looking at how the upcoming qb draft looks on paper.  Hopefully he continues to improve but if in 3 seasons you're still chasing average season numbers then he's not going to be the guy.  You've just got to keep taking swings until you hit.  Average qbs without any elite physical traits cant get it done anymore.  So this year Hopefully he continues to develop and is above average statistically.
    • Meltdowns???? He was pulled by Canales because he wasn't executing the game plan after 2 games into the season so he could watch Dalton execute the offense and show Bryce the windows available in the NFL, how to push the ball down the field and how to step up and move around when blitzed. When Young came back 5 games later he clearly watched and improved. Enough he was named the future starter. He doesn't have a history of  meltdowns nor is there any reason to assume he will have one. From what I have read he is mentally strong and emotional stable. He may have bad games down the road, everyone does. But this is all a learning experience for him and so far he seems to be making progress. I can understand being hesitant on anything Panthers, but Young has surprisingly been able to gain his confidence after a disastrous start. You aren't alone in being cautious but I think he is the future. I thought he was too small and too short to succeed in the NFL. Honestly I was pleasantly surprised last year and am optimistic about the offense for the first time since Wilks and Dalton were decent.
    • The Rams wanted to trade up for Williams who they ended up within the end. They even told him that when they called him to let him know he is the pick. The other teams are only an assumption. Like the Cowboys, who took a guard. The truth is the team wanted to trade down first and foremost but couldn't get an offer the were happy with. They took McMillan because they felt he was bpa at 8 plain and simple.
