Recommended Posts

Here's my best based off camp reports, depth chart release, and the game today.  Think we could definitely still be looking to upgrade at offensive line, particularly Tackle, Linebacker, and perhaps Kicker.  How does it look?

QB (2)

  • Sam Darnold
  • PJ Walker

RB (3)

  • Christian McCaffrey
  • Reggie Bonnafon
  • Chuba Hubbard

TE (3)

  • Dan Arnold
  • Tommy Tremble
  • Ian Thomas

WR (7)

  • Robby Anderson
  • DJ Moore
  • Terrace Marshall
  • David Moore
  • Brandon Zylstra
  • Shi Smith
  • Trenton Cannon

Offensive Line (10)

  • Taylor Moton
  • Matt Paradis
  • John Miller
  • Cam Erving
  • Pat Elflein
  • Dennis Daley
  • Deonte Brown
  • Sam Tecklenburg/ TBD
  • Brady Christensen
  • Trent Scott/ TBD

Defensive Line (10)

  • Brian Burns
  • Derrick Brown
  • DaQuan Jones
  • Yetur Gross-Matos
  • Marquis Haynes
  • Brayion Roy
  • Daviyon Nixon
  • Morgan Fox
  • Christian Miller
  • Hassan Reddick

LB (6)

  • Frankie Luvu
  • Shaq Thompson
  • Jermaine Carter
  • Denzel Perryman
  • Julian Stanford/ TBD
  • Josh Bynes/ TBD

ST(3)

  • Joe Charlton
  • Joey Slye/ TBD
  • Thomas Fletcher

S (4)

  • Jeremy Chinn
  • Juston Burris
  • Sam Franklin
  • Sean Chandler/ Kenny Robinson

CB (5)

  • Jaycee Horn
  • Donte Jackson
  • AJ Bouye
  • Keith Taylor
  • Stanley Thomas-Oliver/ Rashaan Melvin 
    • Both guys might make initial roster until after week 2 b/c of Bouye's suspension

That LB corps is disgusting and not in a good way.

No doubt... they didn't look egregiously bad today, but they didn't look great either.  We have been spoiled with great LB for most of team history. 

My hope is just that they can do their part in what is hopefully a dangerous defensive line and much improved secondary.  And be better than last year, when like Smitty said, having Whitehead out there was no better than having 10 men on defense.

That Patty Fisher made some Luke like reads out there if I recall...long shot but hey maybe a hidden gem

Rhule seems to LOVE Myles Hartsfield. I feel like he makes it somewhere s/cb hybrid.

You would think, but he was near the end of the rotation today and for all of camp as best I can tell.  He was a nice story last year, especially for his versatility, it seems like he is on the outside looking in unless something changes.

Maybe he makes the initial roster while Bouye is suspended since he can play nickle over STO or Taylor.

His reads looked good but that's where the comparisons end unless you're looking for Luke that runs like he has a piano on his back...

I’m sure we try make a move for another veteran LT 

Have to IMO... this offense has the firepower to light up the scoreboard... got to do something b/c Erving has never been able to stay healthy, and Trent Scott and Greg Little look awful.  

Unless the plan really is to move Moton to LT, it has to be done.

Did he play today? I thought he was hurt. If he did you may be right. Not a good sign. Also, he was low on the depth chart. Maybe Chandler has taken his spot. And we know Rhule is going to go with his former players.

    • I feel the same way. Bryce hasn't proven himself to be so good that he would clearly lap anyone that we'd bring in the compete for the starting job. I think the team is actually afraid to do that. If Bryce goes down does anyone think Kenny Pickett is solid option to replace him?. We can control him for 2026 and 2027. The problem is 2028. Unless he takes a massive leap forward ability wise, I don't see how Carolina can justify paying B.Y. $50 million a year. So far, Bryce has not shown that he can CONSISTENTLY carry a team. He needs to be carried by a strong offensive line, running game, pass catchers and a respectable defense. If he's lacking any of those things I don't think we can make the playoffs in 2026/2027 unless the NFC South is as bad (or worse) than 2025. Unfortunately, athletes and agents have EGOs! When he has a chance for a 2nd contract his management team will probably insist on a "market deal" and feel insulted if they don't get one. That leaves a couple of options if his play hasn't significantly improved. 1) Let him walk and test the market. 2) Franchise him for the 2028 season if you're still not sure about what to do. 3) Extend him to a team friendly deal that pays him below the "current market" which would allow the team to continue to build a solid team to support him. 4) Over pay him and pretty much ruin any chance of becoming a consistent contender. The last option is the LEAST DESIRABLE ONE. The 2026 season is a pivotal season for Bryce and the Carolina Panthers. The success of the next 5-7 years could ultimately be decided on how well plays the next 2 seasons.  
    • Thank god BigKat can't buy it because I'd be gone immediately 
    • Drake Maye ended up putting almost 300 on them lol. Bryce was stunned from the beginning to end. I know that's an easy comp for the Bryce truthers but no one else put up those puny QB stats against them all season long.
