I looked around at some articles speculating on camp cuts. Thin on C. Like none. These the top bubble type players, cap casualties, etc. 

There is some edge maybe out there and some OTs out there that can play G too. I don’t get to see Zavala every day and maybe they see something, but from what I have seen he could be cut and replaced by another swing capable guy that could G or T. 

From what I could find of the waiver rules we are 1st refusal, based on our record and draft order... 

That stays until Week 3 of the regular season concludes. A day after. 

Meaning we could claim this guy, claim that guy, never losing 1st choice. I mean, you have to make a roster spot but that’s it. 

I think. Thank goodness they couldn’t trade that to Chicago too.

Y’all should be coaches. You can already tell how these players are going to do in the regular season. 

Well let’s see. We picked no day 1 starters in the draft. We won 2 games last year. We did upgrade to guards and WR 1 but every other position is the same or worse. Pretty good idea how it’s going to go

Not worried about Corbett at this point. 

I don't know if they are trying to figure out the depth at oline or what.  I don't like the starting 5 not playing together.  

Then again, as a Panther fan, I'm use to our oline sucking the first month of the season anyways. Why should this year be any different.

Browns just recently cut a former starting one and he's only 28- Brandon Allen(sp?)fyi I think the rams were planning on making Colbert the starting C and Allen won the job the last week of TC. 

there's Conner Williams and he stated last year , but coming off a ACL. Took a physical and the reports are he wants more money. seahawks are like the Panthers low on cash. 

after that, its awful thin. Honestly Larson whom played here many moons ago as a super sub, is the best pick. 

Just sad, they have not had a NT in 2 years and now in 90 man camp with no one that had a single NFL snap and only one college player that mained C. poor young.....

Brother you better start. Reports are he's having trouble with the calls and has about 5 ultra low snaps each practice.

It's not fair compared to a full season, but it was almost 260 snaps.  It just seems like a unnecessary long shot to take.  There's so much concern over a rookie doing it, but I'm concerned that Corbett playing Center is gonna be a huge problem.  They might have to put Jansen in there and have Young stand back 20 yards.

Advantage : Young can see over his lineman

Disadvantage : It will take all his arm strength just to pass back to the LoS

Saw that. Rams released him too. It was a little confusing, I didn’t push a search. I think he was released by the Rams after 2023 and signed with Cleveland and was released on injury deal and went to the Rams where the same thing happened? I was confused over it but being released so quickly was a red flag to me so I didn't mention him.

He is hurt at the moment I think. And he may be a vested vet which keeps some of them, off of the waiver wire they go straight to UFA. Or vet FA, whatever it is. But they can sign wioth whoever and can’t be claimed.

      Drafting X is like the poster board for mistakes. Hopefully, lesson learned.

      Poster board? Were you trying to use the term poster child?

      Bryce's Achilles Heel Is Not What You Think It Is

      By TD alt · Posted

      I mean, you're acting like we don't see the tippy-toe bunny hops, jump throws more than normal (with both feet dangling in the air every which a way), and off-platform but off-balance throws that arrive short or sail high. Could that be bad mechanics due to being short? Could a seeming propensity to bail the pocket towards the sidelines early as opposed to sitting in the pocket tall and strong, surveying his reads, be an attempt at trying to see an open throwing lane? I'm not saying that what you're saying isn't a contributing factor to what has been an underwhelming display of executing the QB position, but this is year three, and if the lightbulb hasn't switched on by now---if you haven't figured out that guys are faster, stronger and generally more athletic, then what's it going to take? It's hard to forget that "mental processing" was supposed to be Bryce Young's superpower. Are you telling me that he can't nail down such an easy concept as, "I can't get away with the things I did in college at the pro level," is that right? If he can't get past that, then that surely limits his ability to successfully execute all the other stuff.  Look, I'm not trying to be flippant. I acknowledge that playing pro football is more complex than a lot of fans realize, but all we can do, as fans, is observe. One of my favorite things to do is just look at the greater picture and think what part human nature is playing in the many decisions that are being made or have to be made. You're absolutely correct that fans don't know exactly what's going on, but that is by design, and in many ways it's just the nature of the beast. Some things we can't know. That being said, the professionals screw the hell up all the time. The professionals disagree all the time. These disagreements can be within the same franchise or from franchise to franchise. And sometimes these decisions are all over the place, so excuse me if I ain't exactly buying the I-know-more-than-thee sentiment and that that means that professionals always make better decisions than fans would about certain players. Some of this stuff is simply luck or a crapshoot.
