I think it was over the limit by 2, on something I read yesterday.  TO your point, we need to cut 2, I believe. Not confirmed yet.

Do you know when the cut down date is? I'm lazy.

I think it can be anytime before training camp. Don't know of a minicamp limit.

I think the camp limit is 92 or 93 unless it's been changed for this year.

Haven't seen that. Believe TC is 90.

For those who have been asking: #Panthers rookie minicamp begins May 8.

Teams have two weekends to choose from — they had a similar schedule last year.

Yes, there will be pictures of notebooks.

If its the same Tony Grimes from UNC then he wasnt a bad player at all.  A bit underwhelming based on his recruiting but hes a big kid.

I know there is one to get the roster to 53, but the way i understand it, they cannot exceed 90.  I am guessing they have not contacted the players yet, and it will be announced any time.  This is, of course, assuming that my assumption that we went over the limit is correct.  

And then there is the international player provision, and one site had the UDFAs listed and noted that a couple are from Canada--whatever that means.
