Your Projected WR and RB Corps

lol if Armanti had a quitter mentality he would have been cut a while ago. he's stuck around because he's a hard worker and isn't a douchebag. shockingly thats not always an easy combination to find among NFL wide receivers. hopefully he'll get another year to develop

I think 3 years in the NFL and 2 years in the same system is plenty of time to see something from the kid. If we try to keep him around to develop another 2 years, the coaching staff is short changing another player that could help this team. Either they believe he can do it now or they don't. That simple I'm afraid.

Well, Marty sounded extremely confident in him, but as someone else said, he wasn't going to go on TV and say "This guy sucks and we're cutting him tomorrow, I'm just letting you know."

I've clowned Armanti, but I was pulling for him to get it together. It's just seemed like an uphill battle.

Obviously he is. Being on PUP means he isn't getting cut, so he has a roster spot.

Not exactly, if they bring him off PUP he would then take a roster spot someone currently would occupy. They would have elect

to give Gettis a roster spot when he comes of PUP.

WR:

  1. Steve Smith
  2. Brandon LaFell
  3. Louis Murphy
  4. Keoloha Pilares
  5. Lamont Bryant
  6. Jared Green
  7. Joe Adams(though he will mainly be used for kick returns. may see him in the backfield more so than at WR)

David Gettis will get in the mix at some point when he is ready. Then Somebody will go to PS or something.

RBs

  1. Dlo Williams
  2. Jonathon Stewart
  3. Tauren Poole

Hopefully Smith can go to practice squad. I'm sure another team would sign him though. Would be great to have him in case somebody went down.

Yes, but my point being, if he wasn't sticking at least for the foreseeable future, they wouldn't have put him on PUP. And by putting him on PUP, it has the domino effect on another roster spot, so his place on the roster affects who will be kept both now and when he comes off the PUP.

WR:

Smith

Lafell

Murphy

Pilares

Adams

Bryant

A. Smith gets the last RB slot. Best #4 RB in the league from what I can tell. I mean, I don't want it to come to this, but if one of the other three face a serious injury, he can jump right in for a snap here or there.

My prediction: WRs: Smith, Lafell, Murphy, Pilares, Adams, Bryant

RBs: Williams, Stewart, Poole

Practice Squad: Green

Gets signed to another team: A. Smith

This...but replace Bryant with Edwards. I don't really like Edwards but he looks better this preseason.

They went back to Bryant 3 consecutive times after that TD.....I think his poor job using his body on those will cost him a shot at making the roster.

See I disagree. Bryant had a nice shot at the throw that was called for PI. Then Clausen threw a low and outside pass on a fade route to a 6'5 receiver. Poor throw by Clausen. Not sure about a 3rd throw that he had a chance at.

He couldn't use his body on the last one, because Jimmy didn't throw it up. He threw it to his black shoulder instead. It's hard to come up with a back shoulder fade when you're expecting a fade.

    • Because playoff hockey and regular season hockey aren’t the same thing.  It’s a combination of the game intensity being dialed up with loose officiating.
    • The last 8 weeks, Nix had 2,022 yards, 21 TDs, 6 INTs on 70% completions While Bryce's last 8 games he had 1,709 yards, 12 TDs (albeit adding 5 more rushing), 3 INTs on 61% completions. I'm not going to pretend I watched those Broncos games to know exactly how Nix actually looked, but in retrospect, his statistics were better.  Hell, in just his final 8 games, Nix had only 5 less TD passes than Bryce has in his 30 game (28 starts) career. And you said he had better WRs than Bryce did, but I'm not even sure that's even true either. Sutton and Thielen might be completely different types of WRs, but I'd say they are pretty equal on effectiveness if not even a slight edge to Thielen (63.6 YPG for Sutton to 61.5 for Thielen).  Then XL and Coker vs Marvin Mims and Devaughn Vale, again, at worst a push, if not lean in our favor there too. Why is it so hard for some Panthers fans to just objectively look at our team/Bryce and be honest with themselves. ? He was significantly improved the final two months of the season from his first season and a half.  But he was still a below average QB during that time, even if he had a few good throws and clutch moments.
