Would you rather? - Final Roster Bubble Guys Edition


Bronn

Recommended Posts

IMHO there are several spots in which the Panthers have battles for a roster spot between two specific guys. In this thread, I want opinions on the following bubble battles:

Whittaker or Wegher?

Other RBs making the team: Stewart, Artis-Payne, and Todman.

I think we know pretty well what Whittaker brings to the table, but I see a lot of promise in Wegher. I'm torn on this one because I like both guys.

 

Corey Brown, Bersin, or Cotchery?

Other WRs making the team: Ginn, Funchess, and Norwood.

I feel like Cotchery will stick because of his experience, so I think this is really a battle between Brown and Bersin. Again, I like them both, but I feel like we can only keep one. My money is on Bersin.


Rakim Cox or Wes Horton?

Other DEs making the team: Johnson, Ealy, and Addison.

Cox, in my opinion has been one of the stars of the preseason. I think he could push Horton out if we can't keep both.

 

Kyle Love or Terry Redden?

DTs making the team: Lotulelei, Short, Cole, and Edwards.

Could either Love or Redden make the squad? There is a chance that neither makes it and we roll with 4 DTs. Could both of them make it and push out Edwards or Cole? Right now, I am not sure either makes the active team, but I like what I have seen from both.


Ben Jacobs, Jason Trusnik, Adarius Glanton, or David Mayo?

LBs making the team: Kuechly, Davis, Thompson, and Klein.

My gut is we only take 6 LBs, All 4 of the above bring different things to the table, but I think that Trusnik sticks for ST and LB play, and Mayo sticks because he's shown well in game action and we spent a draft pick on him. There is a chance Jacobs or Glanton could stick as a 7th LB, but that could sting elsewhere.

 

Brandon Williams or Scott Simonson?

Other TEs making the cut: Olsen and Dickson

Swole Bones or Simonson? I feel like Simonson has done an excellent job this preseason, but I keep waiting for Williams to bust out. I think Swole Bones' place on the roster might be in jeopardy.

 

What say you, Huddlers?

Fozzy over Wegher. 

Cotchery definitely stays. As down as I am on Philly, between Funchess, Cotchery, Bersin, and Norwood...we really need some speed aside from just Ginn. 

Not sure on Cox, Horton, and even Miley. We usually carry 5 DEs so maybe both. 

DT really depends on health. If Star is cleared we may go with no one, but a developmental guy like Redden could sick. If Star is still struggling then we keep the game-ready vet in Love. 

LB is insane with 9 guys really worthy of a spot on most teams (I'd say Reddick was too). The rooks Mayo and Blechen are likely practice squad bound, the rest is a tossup. Trusnik probably sticks for special teams, and then I guess Glanton over Jacobs? Really tough call. Still think we should see what we could get for Klein. 

Williams v. Simonson...maybe neither. I like what Lucas has shown.

I don't see Colin Cole as a lock at all. If they go with 4 DTs I see Star, KK, Dwan and Love. If Star injury is worse than they've told us I'd see them carrying 5 DT's but ideally I think they prefer to keep Cox at DE than Cole at DT.
