Official Panthers Cuts Thread...

I did a thread on our successful castoffs a year or so ago. Will Montgomery went on to be a serviceable player for the Skins as well. If I'm not mistaken, he was their starting center for a year or two. Without looking, I have no idea where he is now.

Dave Ball was another preseason standout we cut that went on to be productive for Tennessee.

Montgomery is the one his Panther linemates used to call "Cartman".

 

I remember having the impression they didn't necessarily like him all that much.  Could be wrong... :unsure:

Poole being cut indicates he will.

I would tend to agree, but also caution that if he had a setback we've got nobody to fill that role. Just looking at the other side of the equation, I'm not upset or confused as to why Poole was cut.

I know there's this DE we let walk that's still around, I think his name was Julius Peppers? I think he's starting for the Bears if I'm not mistaken.

 

We didn't cut Peppers. And he didn't want to be here. Can we let that go, I haven't looked at our d-line since and thought "gee, I wish we had paid Peppers a ton of money."

Just saw where the Eagles are dumping the guard they took in the first round of 2011, Danny Watkins.

 

His road to football was an unusual story and he wasn't going to be a starter this year.  He started 18 games in the last two, albeit on a lousy line.

 

Gettleman would know about him from Eagles-Giants games.  Wonder if he's worth a look.

 

He's a little older than most third year guys (28).  Might just be that he didn't suit the offense Chip Kelly was going to run,

    • I don't believe it's as easy as saying that anyone believes that Rico had the 10th best day on offense. Grades are done in a vacuum inasmuch as they can be. By their very nature, skill positions are always going to account for more "production" in reference to stats, and RBs perhaps even more than WRs because they touch the ball more. You can't look at PFF's grading system, or any football grading/grading system (like perhaps Football Outsiders or Next Gen Stats), so simplistically. If a player has an excellent day, relative to his position, relative to his assignments, and relative to his number of snaps, then he should be graded highly. It's up to the reader (or the analyst, if you will) to put what you're seeing into context, and that's not only in relation to the grades, but the general situation (like whether a player is playing injured, who they're playing with or against---the general situation). Even the fact that (presumably) PFF or news outlets put out a list of the highest and lowest grades, that doesn't mean that said players were the most impactful of the day, it just means that they did or didn't do their job the best, based upon a certain set of parameters. PFF is a part of life for football analysts, talking heads, execs, coaches, players, and even fans (even if indirectly), all to varying degrees. It is a tool that is used by all 32 teams. Obviously it's not viewed so dismissively by franchises as a whole. Execs obviously don't look at it as a bunch of bozos making sh¡t up on the fly. Fans can berate it or swear by it, but it isn't going anywhere.  The only thing that I can tell you is that perspective and context matters.
    • Im not big in to PFF but their guys were raving about his blocking along with our other skill players in the run game. https://youtu.be/D4kL_N97cFQ?si=sJWSZCUA1bj5otyx
