We're gonna have a huge 20 UDFA class this year 

We have 66 players under contract.  Looks like we will wind up with 5 draft picks, bringing us to 71.  I assume we will sign another few players in post-draft free agency, bringing us to 74.  That would leave up to 16 spots left for UDFA.

As I see it, our biggest needs are still CB, and OL. I would love to land one of the following:

CB: Ringo or Rush. Both are big, fast guys and excellent value at this point of the draft.

OL:  Zavala, Emil Ekiyor Jr., or Braeden Daniels 

Bonus: Roschon Johnson. Big, punishing RB that loves to block and doesn't fumble. Yes please.

Long snapper! Kicker! Punter! Goalie!

Seriously though, NT.

Abanikanda would be fun at 114.  With the WR room pretty much set, I want someone with afterburners on offense.  

Darius Rush, Kelee Ringo, Jay Ward, Trice, all potential CBs

The guard and tackle class is about to come back into the picture this draft as well.  We may be going that route to protect Bryce.  

Josh Whyle & Zach Kuntz are still viable TEs that could beat out Thomas and/or Tremble for TE2.  Could be a future starter.

3rd down RB. And it’s an area of the draft where you could actually find someone that could play vs be a camp body/project for the first couple years. 

*bonus points if he has punt return ability 

i mean if we are running a dink/dunk offense we need that

My "sources " ( some mystical Huddler who knows more than professional coaches )  tell me ,  that the Panthers will trade back to get the 259 pick in the 7th round,,  to get,  ( you guessed it ) , Mr. irrelevant .

We know this is a copy cat league,, if San Fran can find their  QB Brock Pretty at 259,, you can bet others will  try..   We're trading back, a Clayton Tune type,,  better yet,,  submit names of your favorite QB Division III  or  II ,, Do the research,, find out who Leigh's  QB  was,, or the school of your liking..  Scour the Australian football league even though they don't have a QB ,,

      I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
