I mean, he's still not ready.  He's not counting a ton towards the cap, maybe we drop the experiment before it starts.  We have Reddick, Shaq, Carter, Luuvu in the LB room anyways.  May do better getting a final cut from another team at MLB to backup Carter.

Perryman, who has missed prolonged periods of time over his now seven-year career with a history of knee and ankle injuries, is still nursing his way back from what the team is describing as a lower-body injury. Head coach Matt Rhule has already ruled out the possibility of a return to practice for the inside backer this week.

“I don’t think Denzel will be ready,” Rhule stated on Monday when asked of Perryman’s status. “I have not yet seen him. All indications are that he’s not ready yet.”

I honestly figured this was just inevitable. Maybe he doesn't get cut this round but I can't understand the logic to keeping a guy that hasn't played or practiced basically this entire camp.

Plus....I mean the vaccine thing makes it easier from a team standpoint.

Yeah, he's done himself no favors.  He's been as close to invisible as he can be.  I can very well see him being a cut when we draw down to 53 (or put on IR)

I would just plain cut him at the 53. He isn't worth keeping around if he can't get healthy. It's been his reputation already.

      What top 10 prospect do you absolutely NOT want?

      I don't get the Hunter hate. Just imagine his ceiling if he stopped trying to be this 2way freak and focused on one side of the ball

      Is running back on the table for the panthers this draft?

      100%.  You have to play the cards that are dealt.  Not the cards you wish were dealt.

      I'd say its definitely going to be addressed this off-season.  We went into the last draft with a roster of RBs including:  Chubba, Blackshear, and Miles Sanders. We picked Jonathan Brooks in the second and still signed Rashaad Penny afterwards.  Fast forward....One turned into a top 10 back, 1 is injured/out for most if not all the '25 season, 1 retired, 1 will either take a huge paycut or be cut, and the last is a restricted free agent. We brought in Mike Boone as well. Add him to the free agent list also.  We need a physical option.    Which qualifies:  Ashton Jeanty(Boise St): Overall ranked Top 10. Almost 2k yards after contact, 28 tds. Would take our first rounder. My money would be on an NFC East team selecting him. (97.2 PFF run grade) - 121 forced missed tackles.  Omarion Hampton(UNC): Ranked everywhere from 20 - 59 overall. Consensus #2 back after Jeanty. He'll be a second rounder. 1,222 Yards after contact w/ 15 tds.  (90.5 PFF run grade) - 72 forced missed Tackles Kaleb Johnson(Iowa): Ranked from 38 - 69 depending on which media outlet you prefer but generally #3. 2nd/3rd possibly. 1,060 Yards after contact w/ 21 tds.(86.7 PFF run grade)- 66 forced missed tackles Cam Skattebo: Ranked from the 50's - 104. Every mock I do he ends up BPA at some point. 969 Yards after contact w/ 17 tds(92 PFF Run Grade). Probably the best receiving back of the group. 81 forced missed tackles.  If the '24 and '25 draft classes were combined, IMO the rankings would be, in order: Jeanty, Hampton, Brooks, Johnson, Skattebo. I wouldn't take one high but I'd take one for Chubba and Brooks insurance.
