So when do they make final cuts today? Surprise cut?

Pick one surprise cut and list them. Lets see who is right. Mine would have been Corral but with how down on him everyone has been I no longer think if he is cut that it will be a surprise. I still think we should hold onto him one more season to see what he can develop into with good coaching. Who knows, maybe he could develop into a tradeable future draft pick for some team looking for unproven yet promising or at least a youthful career backup to be able to relay on should one ever be needed.

YGM would paradoxically be both a surprise cut, and a surprise if he made the roster. 

Thats true. Never gave him a thought but I would be surprised if he was cut this young into his career yet also surprised if he is kept due to the lack of impact he has made. I wish he could put it all together and figure it out. Coming out of college I thought we hit on something good with him.

The guys I have the most sympathy for are the guys who are going to make the initial 53 but then get bounced by subsequent roster additions from the rubbish pile of the newly flooded FA market. What a gut punch that has to be.

And right now we sit at 56. What a crappy day to have to sit and worry. (Really for the next couple days).

Yeah that has to feel awful to get that good feeling of making the team and then all of a sudden get a pink slip right after.

    • Yep. I was hoping for and calling for a day three guy. But I didn’t research the position to say if we should or should‘t have jumped at a particular guy at a particular spot.    And everything I read said it was a poor draft for RBs depth wise. I guess when Seattle takes a backup RB in the 1st, that kind of backs that up.    I definitely think we should keep 4 running backs and if King can play well enough then keep him too.    I believe I heard Canales say we are a running team (talking about drafting a WR he will be needing to block as well as catch). Well if we are gonna be a running team by identity we don’t need to stock the WR room to overflowing. If one room has to sacrifice, it should not be the RB room given our circumstances. 
    • If there's a pattern I'm definitely picking up from Dan and company is a philosophy of making trades where we try not to sacrifice the number of draft picks we have by day's end. In other words, we're not giving up three picks for one, or giving up a future pick to make a pick today. And even if we give up something at the start, we make trades later to make up for that initial loss. Here's how it stacked up for 2026: How we started: 19, 51, 83, 119, 158, 159, 200 How we ended: 19, 49, 83, 129, 144, 151, 227 (no future picks sacrificed) Ultimately, we moved up two spots in the second to ensure we got someone we coveted, gave up a few spots for our fourth round pick, but then had better picks in the 5th (and got really good value out of them), and had a worse 7th rounder which isn't that big of a loss anyways.  At this point, we can question who they draft, but they're pretty good maneuvering across the draft board.
    • I just saw the funniest thing...or very disappointing, depending how you handle misery. A guy on YouTube did a 2027 'way too early' mock draft.  If I told you the simulator has the Panthers selecting in the top 10 , what would you say?  If I told you it was pick #8 and only two QBs were taken in the top 7, what would you say?  If I told you this dude had us taking a defensive player, what would you say?
