Colin Jones. I keep hearing how great he is on special teams. This is rather hard to judge as a fan. However, last year's big interception notwithstanding, he is a liability in coverage.

Would Colin Jones really be a surprise? 

A backup safety would not be a surprise at all.

The thread was surprise veteran cut right?

The more I think about it, the more I think Garrett Gilbert could/will be cut.  Teddy Bridgewater is going to be traded before the season starts, and the Panthers should (and I think would) spring on it once it gets closer and the asking price drops.  He already knows Norv Turner's offense.  Besides that, Norv was extremely high on his pre-injury.  Would be a logical backup and potentially an upgrade on Derek Anderson if healthy.  Certainly more comforting than rolling with GG, who I think can be decent but needs more time.  I think he is practice squad eligible, and of not. maybe we keep him as the #3 QB.  Just don't see him being a viable option to fill-in for Cam in a season with so much riding on it.  And no one behind GG in the depth chart has shown anything thus far.

This won't happen. GG will be the backup, unless he gets hurt in preseason. Bridgewater will not come to Carolina for vet min and we may still try to sign a vet OL and/or DB. We simply don't have the money for it. Beyond that, I think Bridgewater, whether he's traded or cut, is looking for an opportunity to start. He knows that's impossible here for the foreseeable future.

this feels like the right answer but we already super thin at guard.

Sirles and Larsen will eventually surpass him once we start playing pre-season games. We might just keep a younger and cheaper option like Mahon, Hearn or Dorian Johnson.

Remind me: Was there one last year?

Kyle Love would be the most likely only because he is 32 this year and Norton might be worth developing.

Would Ben Jacobs be a surprise? 4 LB are locked in. Jacobs is battling Smith and Carter for a spot 

 

Pretty much was going to write the same thing.

Maybe using 2 RB sets since CJ is a good blocker instead of a FB thus making Armah expendable?
