Panthers OTA Notes - Week 2

I think you answered your own question.

Cotchery is about 90% a lock.  He's the only real WR veteran on the team (Ginn doesn't really count in that aspect as he's still learning the position in his own right).  It would be down right shocking if Bersin made it over Cotchery.

You cant be 90% a lock. You either are a lock or you aren't, and I don't believe cotchery is.

I don't think Bersin is the token Panther because he is from JR.s college.  I think he has been around long enough that he is more worthy than some of the bigger names.

 

If you are looking a good possession receiver.  I like Bersin.  Good hands, very reliable, great routes and is tall.

I have no idea who I think will be cut.  For the first time in many years.  Teams are going to be watching our cut list.  That seems odd to say.

If we had more competent talent at WR Bersin's best case scenario would be making it as the last WR who never sees the field during the season.  This is why I really hoped we would do more with the position.   I suppose as long as we lose Cotchery OR Bersin by the time the season starts, I can live with it though...  I was happy for BB making the team and all last season with his story, and he seems like a great guy, but he isn't very good. 

Also, as far as RB, I'm pretty sure I said it when we signed him, but Todman will absolutely make this team, and I could see him surpassing Fozzy when all is said and done.  It's kind of been a running joke here on the huddle, where anytime we would sign someone at RB, multiple people would say, "I think we've found our Darren Sproles."   Fozzy has been the closest to it, but I'm telling you,  I think Todman is the real deal in regards to being thscat-back we've been looking for.

If Bersin makes it, then that just confirms to me that Hill, Byrd, Cotchery and/or Boykin are on borrowed time. Funchess, Benjamin, Brown and Ginn are locks in my opinion. That's four spots already. We typically carry five receivers on game day.

maybe we can have someone who can play WR6, as well as backup QB and LT.

    • I know that. I'm not predicting it. Just putting the information out there so I will have receipts for later on when this dude turns into a stud at this level too.  It's kinda bittersweet, he'd help our offense out a great deal, but I'm wanting a QB next draft, so adding another weapon for Bryce is counterproductive in that regard.
    • I'm not sure if NO will be as QB aggressive as some assume.  They may focus on landing a top line prospect and slow rolling the rebuild for next year.  Could see them roll the dice in R3-4 to compete with Rattler, maybe a Howard fit.     I think the QB starved team's just take the gamble the Saints don't want Sanders, and target a mid to late 1st pick for a trade up to land him.  Still don't think Milroe or Shough are going R1.   But I think what may get lost in the trade up talk is about it being QB specific. A top team trying to get over the top could be the juicy trade (or two) that happens in round 1. Something I've flirted with is how aggressive Buffalo could be.  They have the ammunition for a big trade up, and I think Golden would pair super well with Coleman.  They need to cut to the chase and get playmakers there for Allen.  So yeah, love the idea of a BUF/ATL trade where they move up for him.  I'm even thinking about LAR getting aggressive for Warren or Loveland.  Imagine McVay rolling into 2026 with that added piece for a future QB...      
    • Unfortunately, Ice, there are some blueprints of hybrid LB/edge players who were busts too--Everette Brown is one, but he was forced into a 4-3 DE role here.  I would say that the 3-4 defense has a lot of wiggle room for hybrids at the OLB/Edge position--I am just not seeing Walker as an elite player at any one role.  Coverage?  Rushing the passer from the 9?  And at his size... If we take him, I hope that I am wrong because there are some personalities I really would love to be on this roster.  Jihaad Campell is one.  Bech is another.
