Carolina Panthers 2015 Roster Projection

i wouldn't mind cotchery's marginal production if he didn't do stuff like pull up short on routes in playoff games. young guys can learn from a slow but savvy vet, but imo he seems mistake-prone without any of the athletic ability or youth to make up for it.

​From your mouth to Rivera's ears. 

 

This roster isn't what I would personally do, but what I see Rivera doing.

Not much new learning needed in catching a ball that hits you in the hands. 

 

He needs to improve a great deal before he can be considered for a roster spot. Hopefully in camp he gets it together. 

​Yea. Our 6th WR is not going to see the field that much if any next year if all he does is play WR. Boykin's special teams ability could keep him active for more games than another WR that doesn't do anything else. Also, they could alternate between Bersin and Boykin depending who they play. If they need more WRs, activate Bersin. If they need help on ST, activate Boykin.

what the hell happened to klein, anyway? he had a damn good 2013 campaign and looked like the future of the position over chase blackburn.

​Agreed, and I think Klein's more of an MLB anyway.  Seems like he'd be a solid backup to Luke, and we know he can actually play.  Maybe Mayo will look completely different in camp once the pads come on, but at this point it's hard to imagine Mayo being picked over Klein for reasons other than draft pick pride. Camp and preseason will tell the story.

btw I like what I'm hearing about Marlowe. Him and Peters were my two UDFA choices to make the team, but Peters got hurt. I also am a fan of Colin Jones. I actually think he can be better than Harper. If Coleman proves in preseason to be the clear choice for SS, I hope we cut Harper and have Jones and Marlowe as the backup safeties.

Gettleman has never cut a rookie draft pick. Until he does otherwise...

​Getting super pedantic here, but didn't we cut Gafney to put him on IR?

Anyway has Remmers looked good enough at Center to have Folkerts worried?

​Releasing an injured player in an attempt to put him on IR isn't the same thing. 

But lets say it is.... Do you see Gettleman being more or less likely to release a rookie now after seeing the Pats pick up Gafney last year? The Gafney debacle probably further solidified the notion to Gettleman that draft picks don't get waived.

    • The bottom lines to me are that a) we played well enough to beat the best team in the league and b) Bryce Young is growing into a bridge QB role (his ceiling) for us. As much as I don't want BY around after the season, it seems DC can still build the O with a game manager at QB for now. Best case scanario, we can build the D through the draft this year and take a QB we have conviction outside the 1st this or next draft. If BY keeps improving, we are going to win a couple more games this year.
    • Bryce has been a completely different QB since coming back. That started in Denver where it was obviously he was playing a lot more loose and willing to push the ball downfield  Bryce continues to build off of the previous weeks performance and that’s what you want to see Bryce has been making some real good anticipation throws. Reading defenses well. Pushing the ball downfield (7 throws of 20+ air yards yesterday. 8 if you want to include PI to Thielen). The deep ball accuracy has been there. Some of Young’s best throws yesterday were incompletions. Sideline balls to XL and Moore both should’ve been caught. RZ dot to Tremble should’ve been caught. And another RZ ball to Moore that Young gave him a chance at. Bryce is starting to execute Canales offense and yesterday Canales finally opened it up a bit. Canales was to blame for the 126 passing yards in Germany as he played a more conservative game.  The next bit I’m looking for his for Young to be a bit more decisive with running the ball. Start putting that on film and it’ll help open things up a tad
    • This KC team isn't the juggernaut it once was.  How many one score games have they won this season?  How many of those one score wins would probably have been loses if Mahomes wasn't the QB?  Their secondary is vulnerable and it was obvious today.  Grandpa Thielen was able to get open at will all game long. Bryce played well, but thinking this is the exact same KC defense Young was able to move the ball against as last year isn't going to compute.  Last year's KC defense was #2 overall.  They have regressed. I've said it before, Bryce can move the ball before the red zone, but once there, he struggles.  He is not a threat with his legs and the passing windows get much tighter.  He's not turning the ball over, so that is a great place to start and build upon.  I still question much better he can get.  Beyond a game manager?  I highly doubt it.
