Panthers sign 4 guys off the practice squad to future contracts.

They're for training camp and mini camp retards.
:lol: it's always funny to see the overreaction for stuff like this like they are guys they want to have starting or something.

its just to make sure they have bodies at TC and mini camp and such.

nothing worth starting a fire hurney campaign over.

Sure these guys are signed as potential training camp fodder but we signed them because we think they have potential. Every team does this to signnthem before some other team does the same thing. While the likelihood that any of these guys will make the squad is not great, we have certainly found guys off our own and other team's practice squads. A few years ago we got Matt Moore. Even this year Gordon and Nelson were promoted from the practice squad to the active roster.

i agree. the problem i have is that people act like this is going to be the limit of our offseason activity or that we are counting on them fixing the D or whatever when it's just a way to keep guys around we'd like to look at more. that's the reason some guys were put on IR late in the season when it really wasn't necessary. they wanted to make sure that they had these young guys around.

    • In your opinion. What do you think Moton's true value in contract, dollars and guarantees? If we had not extended him, what is your plan for RT in 27 and 28? How important are good offensive linemen for our current offense? How much value do you put on protecting Bryce at this stage of his career? How difficult in general do you think finding above average tackles in the NFL is?
    • The Falcons have 2 significant offensive line injuries to start the 2025 season. Right tackle Kaleb Mcgary (who is the blindside protector for Penix since he is left-handed) is going to miss significant time, and it's looking more like it may be all season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-expect-kaleb-mcgary-to-miss-significant-time https://x.com/BKsquared7/status/1959285822236107013. Also, the top backup and swing tackle, Storm Norton (cool name BTW) is having ankle surgery and may miss half the season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-ot-storm-norton-out-6-8-weeks-after-ankle-surgery I don't root for injuries, but its also hard to be too sympathetic given how badly injuries have hit us in recent years. We definitely need to get that W in week 3 for our home opener at BOA. Despite our collective frustration at not being able to attend TC and then having boring preseason games, ultimately the most important objective of the preseason is to enter Week1 healthy, and we have at least done that. Hopefully the depth we think we have at Oline either shines through or isn't needed. Many other teams are in a bad spot with their offensive lines before the season even starts. For once, we aren't in that situation.
    • That roster was billed as a super smart and strong unit for a young QB….until he sucked though.   it didn’t have superstars but it had proven vets that checked well all the safe boxes and it was universally agreed the Panthers were putting him into position to succeed. BY just doesn’t fit a traditional O because he isn’t built like a traditional QB.  And he still doesn’t.   CJ Stroud would have had more success here than Bryce with that cast.   CJ just has the tools that fit the NFL more easily.  Young can find success but I have always argued it would take a Bryce centric plan (which we have never attempted IMO)
