Panthers cut down day thread.

[Mr. Scot]

Less than an hour to go on one final move, but remember they just have to process the paperwork by 4pm. They don't have to announce it.

I would love to get a peak at who we put in for on the waiver wire. I suspect there is more than one.

I'd agree.

Jacob Hollister is one name I wonder if we'd look at. Having him would conceivably allow us to release two of our current tight ends.

There is no reason to have 5 TE's on the roster, even if you think one can maybe play FB. FB doesn't matter in todays game and nobody is gonna take Ricci off the waiver wire. Just cut him and stash on the PS.

Based on Friday's game, I'd keep him over Thomas or Thompson at this point.

I would shocked if they didn't claim an O lineman and a LB.

Saw his name earlier and thought the same...  Fit is familiar with him, so it makes sense.

My guess is Phil Hoskins being our final cut

this is probably more true this year than others we have experienced.  With Fitt knowing we are 8th on the waiver wire, I expect him to be like a kid in a candy store-I imagine we walk away with two or three new players.

I am guessing we come out of the waiver process with a backup QB, G/C, LB--maybe a K.

Vey likely. We were #7 on the waiver order in 2020 and we claimed 3 players if I recall correctly

Fitterer might grab 5
