Early Look At The Roster


Recommended Posts

I know it is very early to be looking at the 53 man roster, but after an EXCELLENT draft it looks like the roster is pretty much done. I see us going out and signing Robertson and a free agent o-linemen. This looks like a very competitive roster and I am real excited. I also think the last roster spot is going to come down to McCown, an extra o-linemen, or FA linebacker

QB: Jake Delhomme and Matt Moore

RB: DeAngelo Williams, Jonathan Stewart, and Mike Goodson

FB: Brad Hoover and Tony Fiammetta

WR: Steve Smith, Mushin Muhammad, Dwayne Jarrett, Ryne Robinson, and Jason Carter

TE: Jeff King, Dante Rosario, and Gary Barnidge

OL: Jordan Gross, Travelle Wharton, Ryan Kalil, Keydrick Vincent, Jeff Otah, Duke Robinson, Mackenzy Bernadeau, Geoff Schwartz, and FA

DE: Julius Peppers, Everette Brown, Charles Johnson, Hilee Taylor

DT: Maake Kemoeatu, Dewayne Robertson, Damione Lewis, and Nick Hayden

DE/DT: Tyler Brayton

LB: Thomas Davis, Jon Beason, Nail Diggs, James Anderson, Dan Connor, and Landon Johnson

CB: Chris Gamble, Richard Marshall, Sharrod Martin, CJ Wilson, and Dante Wesley

S: Chris Harris, Charles Godfrey, Quinton Teal, and Nate Salley

K: John Kasay and Rhys Lloyd

P: Jason Baker

LS: JJ Jansen

I have Brayton in there as DE/DT giving us a better rotation. I also think Captain and Irvin will be put on practice squad this year, both are very raw. Brinkley has not shot to make the roster now unless we get rid of Peppers which I doubt. Also we may go after another LB because I never remember us going into a season with only 6 linebackers. I can see us bringing in one more for special teams.

Concerning the DT position I am not too worried. Kemo is Kemo and Lewis is a much better player coming in on third and longs. He is most effective as a rotational player on passing situations. Hopefully Robertson can shake off his bust status and live up to some of his potential.

I agree as of now that is what it looks like. I think we need to bring in a DT, LB, and OL possibly even two. Also I am not sure and you may be right, but I do not believe we have Darwin and Gibson.

not loving the look of our secondary...or our WR depth.

Love our O-Line, linebackers, and running backs though

I think our secondary will be pretty set next year if our pass rush improves (specifically from the interior). But I really think our pass rush and defense as a whole will improve under Meeks. The good thing is he's got a lot of young talent to work with.

I think our depth is at wide receiver is as good as can be expected for a team such as ours.

I'm just a bit worried about the defensive tackle position, to be honest.

    • Valid, and throw in that what Wilson and Smith did is not out of the ordinary for a WCO 
    • Darnold was pretty bad until last year.  He implodes mentally, its just what he does.  To this day I dont have a problem with letting him walk.   Baker is a bit different.  He was an ass in Cleveland and they couldnt deal with his poo, but he at least had talent and went to the playoffs.  So you know he could play at least.  There were different stories coming out from the time he got here, competing with Sam and then the practice team release fiasco.  Both good and bad.  Some say he was a good teammate others say he bitched behind the scenes.   From what it appears his wife has worked with him and he calmed down and his play has reflected that.  Tampa loves him.  So if we were going to keep one it probably should have been him but man he was really bad for us.  But to his defense he didnt get the first team reps until late into camp.     In obvious hindsight we should have signed Baker cheap, drafted a dude and let the cards play out, but you know the rest of the story and now we are going to have to watch bryce for 2 more years 
    • Again his one year calling plays happened to be Baker's lowest YPA not counting his split year hear.  That tells me he was less aggressive with a QB who likes to be aggressive.  We have that and almost 2 full years of Bryce Ball here in Carolina.  He will take some deeps shots as most offenses have to in order to keep the defense honest.  Quick passes and hopeful YAC.  I'll give you one guess to which year Rachaad White had the most receptions as TB's RB?  Remember the first thing he wanted to do here is focus on how quickly he wanted to get the ball out.  That's part of his recipe to help QBs and help his OL.  Run the ball, quick passes to hopefully players in space, sprinkle in a little PA.   So yeah you can look at some coaches he learned under and speculate, but I am telling you what he literally is doing and has done as a play caller.  Offenses that were and are 100% his baby.
