Honestly curious: How many players on our roster can you name without looking?

I got up to 37 before I started blanking. Weird. I think it’s cause I read a depth chart a few days ago. (I know there’s one or two starters we’ve had for a few years at least that I’m blanking on too.)

Yeah, I was blanking on some of last year's rookies like Thomas-Oliver & Roy.  I had to really work hard to pull those names out of my brain along with a few other guys who played last year.  Also, I totally forgot  about DaQuan Jones (even though I was excited when we signed him), and guys like RB Trenton Cannon...

I guess I need to do some conditioning too to get in top season form!  LOL

STO and Cannon. Should have remembered those.

Franklin too. That name just popped in my head. I knew I was missing a safety or two.

I'm a little less diehard than I was a few years back ('13-'17ish) where I could easily name every player on the 53 and the practice squad and also the large majority of the camp bodies on the 90 man roster (going to camp regularly back then certainly helped too...). Probably in the 40-50+ range right now. Starters and notable/main backups are easy and then maybe a handful of others, but I pretty much don't know any of the camp bodies/guys not likely to make the team...

My number is 54 and that's only if you include Ha Ha Clinton-dix which is premature....so really I listed 53.

Yeah, I checked, I blanked on some ones I shouldn't have

I forgot to list:

Greg Little, Mike Horton, Gross-Matos, Haynes, Roy, Luvu, Melvin, Stanly Thomas Oliver

Even if I didn't blank I only had 61.  The rest I know very little about including  Ibe.

Back in the early 2000’s I could tell you the 52 man roster plus practice squad.  Could name the staff too all the way down to equipment manager.

Now?

uh…. CMC, Burns, Chinn, All 3 Moores, the draft class and FA class.  Outside that, spotty at best.

25%- 30%?

    • Night and day difference in the front office investements.  Since Morgan has been in the FO (5 years)....4 out of 5 first round picks have been offensive players.  The one defensive pick was a corner. Expand it out to the first 2 rounds? 7 out of the 9 picks have been offensive.  That IMO is why our D sucks so bad.   You build defenses up front.   Carolina hasn't been investing there.  Ron's first 5 years? 3 of the 5 first round picks were defensive players.  Expand it all to include second rounders  7 of the 10 picks were defensive.  All front 7 players.     
    • I think he gets this year to show what he can do.  Last year, we had a lot of injuries. This year, we should have some players, even if we lose one or two.  It's the first preseason game.  Some of the starters weren't even in it.  There is no scheming or game planning.  Let's see how guys do when it counts. I think we have a GM that knows a thing or two about defense.  Let it play out.
    • I was ok with the mentor aspect of keeping Dalton, but wow has he fallen off the deep end. The slow behind the WR interception was awful. I keep hearing our WRs created no separation, but on that particular play dude was wide open and Dalton couldn't get it to him with a clean pocket. Next year, we need to address the backup QB spot haaaaaard!
