The #Panthers are releasing TE Jordan Matthews, per league sources.

He joins TE Colin Granger (injury related) as part of the post-draft cuts, as @josephperson first reported.

Matthews story is still pretty incredible considering the trajectory of his career: charlotteobserver.com/sports/nfl/car…

i had high hopes for Jordan Matthews. oh well. we're good.

Granger...interesting idea. doubt it would have worked. no real reason to give it a try either. TE room is stacked, imo.

Evans is well on his way to becoming at least TE2

don't know if he's going to beat out tremble or sanders. won't need to. we can cycle them in and out on the regular. all three are going to be getting a lot of snaps.

You serious Clark? Stacked?

We have a second year 4th rounder who showed some flashes as a rookie. A #2 who is primarily a blocker who has under 800 career receiving yards through four seasons, and now we've added a 5th round rookie to the mix. I mean, there's potential there. There's reason for cautious optimism. But stacked? Definitely far from stacked.

I mean, let's be honest... how many starting TEs across the league wouldn't immediately be penciled in as the starter on this roster?

I was just wondering about this yesterday because by my count (including unsigned draft picks + UDFAs) we were at 95 players.

With the 4 reported cuts I believe the team is currently at an unofficial 92 players

It's a good sign when a couple years ago fitterer left the cupboard bare everywhere and now some positions might actually be stacked like imo wr, te, d line and maybe o line. There is work to do but the arrow is slowly pointing up

      I need to actually do a full analysis but I think the issue was more that we'd rarely have top-to-bottom awesome drafts but we'd frequently have drafts where only 2-3 players panned out, but the 1st is a Pro Bowler and the other two solid starters or backups. We rarely had drafts where only 1 player was good, and we never had absolute useless drafts. At the very least we always had one really, really good guy. The worst was probably 2005 where we got Thomas Davis (Hall of Honor-quality player) and Geoff Hangartener. Evan Mathis was good, but only after he left.

      Hurney wasn’t good with contracts but I think he was probably above average at drafting.  Not saying he was great.  Just that most draft classes are worthless.

      Ehh, teams earlier this season double and tripled teamed him with decent success. The reason he beasted out so much with Miami was for some reason they did not much at all. Bad call on their part. But that is his purpose. If he is eating up people that is huge, and theoretically should give others the ability to make a play. But his surrounding cast to do that isn’t great. Brown is something OCs have to put a lot of time to plan for.
