It's a slow day, it's taking forever for them to release our cuts (as of when I started this post), practice is delayed to 2:45pm est, and now there's a Tornado Warning in Spartanburg, so I say why not. 

Offense - 25 Total

QB (2) - Sam Darnold / PJ Walker - I think we ultimately release Grier or move him for a 6th or 7th round conditional pick, with it being a 17 game season that extra spot is better suited elsewhere, and if we lose two QB's anyway it doesn't matter. I think we add a body to the PS however.

HB (3) - Christian McCaffrey / Chuba Hubbard / Trenton Cannon  -- I think we try to get Rodney Smith pack to the PS, Cannon is our KR / Gunner so he sticks.

FB (1) - Rod Smith

T (5) - Cam Erving / Taylor Moton - Greg Little / Brady Christensen / FA TBD -- I don't see Scott making the team, and 2nd round investment / depth sees Little survive

C / G (5) - Matt Pardis / Pat Elflein /  John Miller -- Dennis Daley / Deonte Brown

TE (3) - Dan Arnold / Tommy Tremble / Ian Thomas -- I think we are locked in on this, I don't see Sullivan making a push

WR (6) - DJ Moore / Robbie Anderson / Terrace Marshall Jr - David Moore / Brandon Zylstra / Shi Smith

______________________________

Defense - 25 Total

DE (4) - Brian Burns / Morgan Fox -- Yetur Gross-Matos / Marquise Haynes --  Christian Miller to the PS

IDL (4) - Derrick Brown / Daquan Jones -- Bravvion Roy / Daviyon Nixon - Hoskins to the PS

OLB (4) - Shaq Thompson / Haason Reddick -- Frankie Luvu / Julian Stanford

ILB (3) - Denzell Perryman / Jermaine Carter -- FA TBD, Josh Bynes was not impressive, looked slow and missed several tackles, turning 32

CB (6) - Donte Jackson / Jaycee Horn / AJ Bouye -- Rashaan Melvin / Keith Taylor / STO III -- Pride to IR

S (4) - Jeremy Chinn / Juston Burriss -- Kenny Robinson / Sam Franklin -- I think we will try to get Hartsfield onto the PS. 

________________________________

ST's - 3

K - Joey Slye

P - Joseph Charlton

LS - Fletcher -- It sucks but I think this is where we say goodbye to JJ

  • Thompson would be the TE making it over Thomas methinks
  • Safety projections check out
  • I think we end up just cutting Perryman, it's only $2.9 mil guaranteed, virtually nothing towards 2022
  • I see us carrying 7 WRs w/ Brady's offense bringing in Bayless, R. Smith would then be a cut

I think Thompson is a safe bet to make the roster. He actually played well for us in spurts last season.

You could be right, but I don't think so personally b/c for all his flaws, Ian Thomas is light years more talented than Colin Thompson.

I doubt Thomas is resigned after this year, but I would be shocked if the coaching staff cut Thomas.

He didn't even play against the Colts, which makes me think Thomas is considered enough of a "starter" that his roster spot is in jeopardy.  Ian Thomas is a physical specimen, and those don't grow on trees.

I'm not saying Ian Thomas is the guy, but Colin Thompson was on the roster last year b/c we lacked talent, not b/c he should be on an accomplished NFL roster

Smith WAS a cut. Also, I think Cannon is our WR7. I still have Chandler making the team as a 5th safety. He's having a strong preseason.

Well there we go! ha.  

WR chart for me:

DJ Moore, Robbie Anderson, Terrace Marshall, David Moore, Shi Smith, Brandon Zylstra, Omar Bayless

*Maybe CJ Saunders.  The 6-7th WR spot is going to be a fun one to see go down. I honestly like them all.

I have DJ, Anderson, Marshall, David Moore, Shi, Zylstra; in that order.

Bayless makes PS if he clears waivers. As does Saunders.

Cannon becomes our WR7, RB4, ST ace, all around good guy.

Thompson is worlds better than Thomas.

      Benjamin Solak on Panthers draft needs

      By strato · Posted

      Wonder if we draft a RB. Seems like a lot of eggs in Brooks’ basket right now.  And the OL, no kidding. If that running game goes to hell with what we have at QB, you can forget competing. It is so much more important than sticking another wideout on the field. Take your wideout later.

      2026 Win predictions from DraftKings

      By strato · Posted

      I have lots of different thoughts on it. This argument, the primary thing is I don’t like seeing him or anyone, being convicted on hearsay and/or pure speculation. Which some are doing.  I don’t care That much about defending Morgan as I do about the criticism being fair minded.    You sort of assert that Dan was just a yes man. I don’t think we know if he ever pushed back against Fitterer but I have this instinct thing that needs me to satisfy the question of: if Tepper was so down on a Fitterer as to fire him, why in the world would he hire his carbon copy? I guess maybe he wanted a yes man.Like I said, lots of different thoughts.     I am just not gonna judge him that harshly based only on speculation. I am sticking with what he has done starting when he was hired as GM. Maybe I am more lenient because the first season for him and Canales, I gave both a pass. Said I would judge them after the first year. Stuck to it. If you can get to the reality that neither were ready for the job and say okay give them a year get their feet wet, it looks a lot better.    And we are not bound to Bryce yet. Yes, for yet another fuging year he can probably marginally improve and slide by like he has been doing. But if they add even more people and he regresses? I think we could see some relief.    The QB room? As I understand it, Pickett was Canales’ choice. If we need to blame people for poo. In a sense, he is very Bryce like. So makes a good plug in. I get that a little bit. We still have the draft. If they do better than Jake Plummer or Hooker I’ll know they are trying.
