I still believe that Dalton will be let go and they'll just keep Young and Corral. Dalton is only here for the transition. 

I doubt this. Dalton started as a rookie, has won playoff games, and been in the league a long time, and he is a servicable back up QB. Corral hasn't done anything but sit out his rookie year with an injury (not his fault).

While it’s unlikely that the Panthers keep just three quarterbacks on their roster throughout the summer, Carolina might want to give Corral an extended look behind Dalton and Young. With just three players taking reps at quarterback, Corral could have heavy training camp and preseason workloads, which could factor into his evaluation by the new staff.

and hopefully up his trade value.

He also signed a two year $10M(8 gtd) contract. He's on the roster for at least 1 year, maybe Corral beats him out as the backup next year. I'm more curious if they keep all of them on the 53. Corral might no clear waivers for the practice squad depending on how injuries go throughout the league, and how he looks in preseason

Some of you will simply continue to discount Corral as a legit talent. It makes some sense, I guess, but it makes more sense to say, "Here is a very talented kid who got a raw deal his rookie year, so let's see what he's got with sound coaching and development, because the sky just may be the limit."

Active slot limits are stupid anyways. It's just a way for the teams to save a few million dollars a year on their contracts by not giving those players their game day bonuses

 

Or...Teams use those extra slots for players they don't want poached if they were to put them on the PS.

This. I know injuries, not fair blah blah. That’s what the practice squad is for. 

 

You put the wrong player on the PS and he will get poached.

And as of right now it looks as though he just may get a lot of opportunities to show just what he's got. What with only 3 QBs on the roster at this time.

      Week 12: Other NFL Games

      Not all talent can be measured with a ruler and stopwatch. His hands, body control, and skills were ELITE.

      He did have talent, but if you look at his combine/workout numbers...they are not eye popping like many of the combine freaks are. All the best have talent, smarts, and work ethic. What he was able to do in his 40s, he holds all the records after 40. He had two 1k seasons at 39 and 40, no other WR has 1k after 36. He came back from a ACL tear within 9 months after he turned 35 years old. You know this is the era where ACl was a career derail-er and it took most mortal men took a full 12 months and they were never the same. Only two other players have made catches at that age (40) and neither one was a wide receiver. LOL at Tom being one of them....   I also read or heard, he would have still played if not for ST. He was going to play for the broncos in 2006, I think he would have been 44???, he earned a spot as the #4-6 but the numbers game of having WRs play ST ended his career. He could still get open and play, just no sense in having the GOAT run head first into a wedge on KO duties.....

      High praise for TMac

      With a strong finish to the season, he has a real chance at being just the 3rd Panther to make the Pro Bowl in their rookie season (and just the 2nd as a non special teamer) after Cam and Smitty. He won't make it on the original selections, not over JSN, Puka, Pickens, St Brown, London, Jefferson who should all finish with at least the same amount of yards and TDs, if not more.  No rookie is getting selected over all those big name vets with similar statistical seasons. But a couple injuries and/or reaching the NFC Championship and pulling out of the Pro Bowl, he very well could be one of the first couple alternates and end up making it.  Last year the NFC ended up with 7 WRs making it in the end after players who pulled out got replaced.
