Looks like Antonio Bryant might be the odd man out in Cincy. He has apparently been dealing with a knee injury since last season that the Bengals are concerned about. He could be cut outright.

While I think the Panthers brass won't make any moves at any positions before the season starts, Bryant would be a welcome addition to a very young WR corps in Carolina. Pair him with Smith and suddenly the Panthers have a strong 1-2 combo. But his age, past character issues, and price tag will likely keep the Panthers far away from Mr. Bryant.

My guess where he ends up if he is cut? Redskins.

ummmm....no thanks, not even touching the character issues.

his lingering knee problems is a bone on bone problem. very likely he will have to have some more work done on it sooner rather than later and until then he is going to be having some problems performing. even if he has work done he will most likely only be able to play for another year (not including this one).

they are supposed to be working on an injury settlement, or at least they should since it looks like he won't be a part of their offense this year and it doesn't look like they are interested in keeping him around. if he does get an injury settlement, i can't imagine any teams wanting to bother with him.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By CRA · Posted

      yeah, now it's going to get awkward.  The team circles pay attention to all this stuff.  All the wives and girlfriends see the posts.  They all talk like everyone.  Football is just a normal world outside of the fact they play a game for lots of money.  Gossip travels. They know the Theilen's want out at this point.  Carolina is now the disappointed failed trade location.    So now AT takes sort of an inhouse hit in Carolina IMO

      Ummm... The dude looked like he was about 180 pounds soaking wet with us (I don't care what his listed weight was/is) - he would have been destroyed in the run game even more than our current and past crappy ILBs. The problem is we primarily play 3-4 or nickel/dime - there is little room on the field for him because he isnt an edge LB blitzer and he can't cover for crap. The only thing he can do kind of well is be an in-the-box safety that can try and beat blockers to the spot because of his athleticism. Washington was able to make him work last year because they used him solely as an in-the-box safety and almost exclusively ran a single high FS. The funny thing is they had good yards/game stats against the pass despite most of their secondary having embarrassingly low PFF grades. Washington was also terrible against the run, which might explain why they gave up so few yards passing.

      Just get the deal done. We've teased it so much that the Thielen's expect it. Now we run the risk of our veteran WR locker room presence becoming disgruntled. Just take what we can get, make him happy, and get future assets while freeing up snaps for guys who will be here beyond this season.
