Why on earth would we put Plummer on the practice squad. He is literally one of the worst QBs I have ever seen

Fair to question but don't be surprised if that's the reality. I would literally take anyone that's being cut by another team over him but apparently QB depth is not a priority for this crew

I’m not sure what the priority is with this crew. Maybe guards since they paid them so much

Luton will be on the practice squad before Plummer. But remember this, any qb you put on the practice squad will get poached as soon as someone needs one. Would you want to put a lot of time in developing a qb for someone else?

If anything they will bring someone like Luton in to backup Andy if something were to happen to Bryce. I forsee 2 scenarios that could play out as a result of how Bryce does this season.

He could continue on his current trajectory where the team will be forced to change course and look for a replacement in the next draft, assuming there is one to be had. Which would add even more uncertainty and more scenarios we will not discuss in this exercise. 

He could play well enough to buy him another season and the Panthers time to improve the competition behind him. Either through free agency or the draft. 

That's my view from the nose bleed section.

Luton on IR; I think since it's before cuts he is stuck there unless he is waived/injury settlement.

Honestly on paper aside from Bryce this just is not a bad offense if healthy. Only glaring weakness outside of QB is TE, although I do really like Sanders -- just not expecting a ton from him as a rookie. It's on Bryce and coaching if we aren't a top 16 offense this year, because the rest of the pieces are good enough to be average or better.

 

Jurry is still out on Bryce to me, (needs largest ever second year jump) 

 

TE though I have Tremble as a sleeper, when he's gotten looks he's been good especially in the red zone.

For the record the waiver position holds through week 3 of the season.

The day week four starts that stops. There is a day or a short time to conduct the process and then it is week 4. i guess they have to do MNF and then have that claiming period, then you are on to the next week.

I looked it up last week or the week before.

After that the worst teams get top priority so...we'll probably still be picking near the top. The only thing that might throw that off is we get the Saints and Raiders in the first 3 weeks so we might squeak out a couple wins early before the schedule gets tougher

So, I found more which is after the trade deadline vested vets have to pass through waivers.

What I didn’t find is do you lose your position if you claim a player?

I think you keep the position based on league standings however it updates weekly. I imagine by week 4 we'll either look better than expected or the writing will be on the wall and waivers will be moot

This is also what we said last year. Just take a quick peak around the NFL and see how many teams would you rather take our skill position players over theirs (WR, TE, RB). Just as much as the Panthers have yet to find a QB successor to Cam Newton they've also failed to learn how to build around a young QB because I'd trade with just about every team in the league except for maybe a small few.

    • This is gonna be longest six weeks ever 
    • This 1000%.  Hey who wants to sign with the guy that couldn't even get his client the guaranteed contract of a 3rd round pick?  Lmao
    • 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.
