Final Panthers Cuts

Think it'd be a huge mistake to let Wegher go. He is the only back built for 20+ carries a game on this team - except for Stewart, but Stewart breaks down after 4-5 games.

We have to be honest here. Stewart will more than likely get hurt by the midpoint of the season. Wegher and CAP are the only backs that can take up his role. Every one else is a 3rd down, change of pace type running back.

Fozzy is a third down scat back. Far from complete. 

Why do you think they brought in 3 more running backs this offseason, one of which is an upgraded Fozzy. 

We ppicked up one RB(Todman). DG is bpa in the draft so CAP was bpa and Wegher was a good development player. He'll man we picked a 2nd round WR, a FA WR,  and a UDFA WR but that does not mean KB sucks.  It's about depth. 

Like it or not Fozzy is better than Wegher and playing time shows.

Well there's also Tolbert, frankly we normally keep just 3 pure HB with Tolbert as a HB/FB. 

I'm thinking they could keep 5, but I'm just not sure where they make up for it. Webb? 5 receivers? Not sure. 

I normally don't count Tolbert as a RB since they list him at FB, but yeah, keep him too. Gotta keep Webb too, and 6 receivers. My solution for keeping 'em all is in the post above- special unlimited roster just for the Panthers.

Todman is an upgraded Fozzy, complete with better NFL stats. 

 

No reason to keep both. 

 

 

You people comparing Wegher and Fozzy are silly. Wegher can be an every down back in this league. Fozzy, not so much. 

I don't understand why you hate Fozzy so much? He's actually proved something in regular season and playoff games. It'd be a mistake to cut him.

    • The thing I like most about Walker is his character--he is dripping with leadership and class.  I used to sit in a coaches office when I taught at Walker's high school before Jalon was born---and talk to his dad and the other Catawba College coaches. They showed me film and talked x and o stuff.  I barely remember it, but I liked Bennett, and when Coastal Carolina started their program, he took Jalon's dad with him.  So I have many reasons to want Walker on the team and I know he has a football background better than most.  I think Jalon's father returned to Salisbury to coach Catawba later, when Jalon was born.  I have heard (from former colleagues) that he is a "great kid."   That means a lot. Having said that, there is a concern that he could bust because he was not always working on his pass rushing moves, etc.  Looking great in college is one thing; as I have said before, people playing 1 role all the time look great in college film, but half of the first rounders bust.  So I have to think of his as a bit more raw than a guy who gets DE/edge reps 24-7.  This does not mean he can't do it; it means I worry that he does not have the depth of training he needs to transition well to the NFL.  He has to be developmental to a degree--so that is where I am coming from-your points are valid, based on selected known quantities, but we obviously are dealing with some unknown variables that should be considered objectively.  That is where I am.
    • I feel you... our scheme is safety specific but I only hate that Evero is involved. I don't mind the talent but  Evero shouldn't have much say in the decision.
