Joe Person's 2022 Carolina Panthers 53-man roster projection extravaganza

Quarterbacks (2)

On the roster: Matt Corral, Sam Darnold or Baker Mayfield/Jimmy Garoppolo

In the mix: P.J. Walker

Long shot: Davis Cheek

When NFL minicamps wrapped up without the Panthers and Browns finalizing a Mayfield deal, it assured the Panthers’ never-ending Great Quarterback Pursuit would drag out a few more weeks, likely into July. There’s no real impetus for either side to get a deal done now, especially considering everyone in the NFL is about to be on vacation. But the talks will pick back up as camp approaches, and the Browns will either agree to pay enough of Mayfield’s $18.8 million salary to satisfy Panthers owner David Tepper or they won’t. Trading for Garoppolo is a non-starter because of concerns over his surgically repaired throwing shoulder and $25 million salary. But the Panthers could be interested if San Francisco cuts him.

Front 7 on D on paper concerns me quite a bit. Shaq is the only legit starter at LBer, Luvu could get there as he was great in a lesser role last year but it's yet to be seen how he'll do with significant snaps on D.

DE is thin if Burns and YGM don't take steps forward and even if they do not much depth.

DT a huge concern if Brown plays like he did last year, although I do like the Ioannidis acquisition.

That group of tight ends is easily the worst in the NFL and the worst in franchise history. My God. 
 

Linebacking corp ain’t much better. Shaq is a stud but the rest is garbage. 

I agree about the right ends. Only one worse was when we had Jeff King as our starter in 2009.

If we get a QB, the era of mocking “first round TE to Carolina” will come back… ad nauseam

    • Not sure how much he was a long term piece of this team.   Sucks to not have him as part of the rotation.   Looks like it's Lee Hunter time.     
    • This post was an error. Oops and sorry for the errors in the previous one. Too slow to edit.   We’ll see what they do.  
    • I am not sure he will put the over the games but we’ll probably have them.   Two things I am thinking.  We have 4 preseason games.  All the coaches have enough service time to know the standards that are in place for decades. If I recall it was play your starters just a series to start woth and build it up until week theee where play a lot and you have week four to set hour roster. Evaluate before cuts.   Bevell will certainly have the whole thing down pat.   I’d they don’t do the fries and frie air will worry too. Because it is set up to do that.     I have said since they went t three preseason people have to figure a new way are still feeling it out and trying things.  We don’t have to this year.
