I think some of these guys are stretching these injuries and making them look worse than they are. DeAngelo should be playing. Otah as well.

Nonsense. Whilst a player might not want to go back in a season like this, a doctor or physio can easily tell if a player is faking or not. So if they were not wanting to come back this season just because they couldn't be bothered, I imagine they would run risk of disciplinary problems with the team. Not to mention losing the respect of the players they call team mates.

The coaching staff will clear any player that is fit to play and then the player can throw a hissy from there. However it could be the coaching staff preferring to get a look at other players, so allowing their established stars that extra week to be fully healed.

Something else interesting to think about.

People are worried that we will beat Atlanta because they will be resting their starters. In many cases the Panthers have already sat down several starters who could probably have come back to contribute if the season meant anything.

We are down to our 2nd or 3rd string at certain positions, so really by that time who knows who else will be "injured" or sat down because its meaningless.

      It is time to Consider the Likelihood of WR at #19

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      I can see Cooper being a target. Wouldn’t be bent out of shape but obviously not a preference if we’re talking position picked — but I’m just looking for impact. And man, this draft class is an odd bunch in our range. Has these really talented hybrid Slot/Safeties, McDonald (but I think I liked Tyleik more the other year), Faulk (huge work in progress), Saddiq (TE in R1?), and some interesting but wildly different profiling OTs. Our biggest needs: ILB, 3-4 DE, S/Slot (à la Branch), OT, WR, and TE The WRs here would be a notable impact add.  I personally don’t have a position I am pining for. I see Thieneman, Cooper, McDonald, and McNeil-Warren as my faves right now but it could change.  Iheanachor is a sleeper at OT over Proctor, Miller and others. A big eye-of-the-beholder year. It would take a major reach for me to be ticked with the pick bc there’s just too big a range of players, positions and types this draft. Unpopular: Honestly, I kind of love the idea of just trading up for Styles if he slips to 8/9. It’s not a year where capital is going to be lofty.

      Panthers Top 30 Visits and Draft Tracker

      By strato · Posted

      I have wanted to do that since I first looked at the draft order and the crop of players.  A lot of it is, just not that impressed with the selection we are likely to have at 19. And then when I learned how good some of these ILBs are I never bought that we could sit at 51 and get one. So trading back helps us have a chance to move up for one of those guys.

      Kenny Moore on the trading block?

      I would pass, dude is 30 and would require using a draft pick to get.  Maybe if we were in season and having a better year than expected and see the need for a CB, but right now no.
