Why on earth would we put Plummer on the practice squad. He is literally one of the worst QBs I have ever seen

Fair to question but don't be surprised if that's the reality. I would literally take anyone that's being cut by another team over him but apparently QB depth is not a priority for this crew

I’m not sure what the priority is with this crew. Maybe guards since they paid them so much

Luton will be on the practice squad before Plummer. But remember this, any qb you put on the practice squad will get poached as soon as someone needs one. Would you want to put a lot of time in developing a qb for someone else?

If anything they will bring someone like Luton in to backup Andy if something were to happen to Bryce. I forsee 2 scenarios that could play out as a result of how Bryce does this season.

He could continue on his current trajectory where the team will be forced to change course and look for a replacement in the next draft, assuming there is one to be had. Which would add even more uncertainty and more scenarios we will not discuss in this exercise. 

He could play well enough to buy him another season and the Panthers time to improve the competition behind him. Either through free agency or the draft. 

That's my view from the nose bleed section.

Luton on IR; I think since it's before cuts he is stuck there unless he is waived/injury settlement.

Honestly on paper aside from Bryce this just is not a bad offense if healthy. Only glaring weakness outside of QB is TE, although I do really like Sanders -- just not expecting a ton from him as a rookie. It's on Bryce and coaching if we aren't a top 16 offense this year, because the rest of the pieces are good enough to be average or better.

 

Jurry is still out on Bryce to me, (needs largest ever second year jump) 

 

TE though I have Tremble as a sleeper, when he's gotten looks he's been good especially in the red zone.

For the record the waiver position holds through week 3 of the season.

The day week four starts that stops. There is a day or a short time to conduct the process and then it is week 4. i guess they have to do MNF and then have that claiming period, then you are on to the next week.

I looked it up last week or the week before.

After that the worst teams get top priority so...we'll probably still be picking near the top. The only thing that might throw that off is we get the Saints and Raiders in the first 3 weeks so we might squeak out a couple wins early before the schedule gets tougher

So, I found more which is after the trade deadline vested vets have to pass through waivers.

What I didn’t find is do you lose your position if you claim a player?

I think you keep the position based on league standings however it updates weekly. I imagine by week 4 we'll either look better than expected or the writing will be on the wall and waivers will be moot

This is also what we said last year. Just take a quick peak around the NFL and see how many teams would you rather take our skill position players over theirs (WR, TE, RB). Just as much as the Panthers have yet to find a QB successor to Cam Newton they've also failed to learn how to build around a young QB because I'd trade with just about every team in the league except for maybe a small few.

    • If I’m putting myself in a team’s shoes - you’re looking at these prospects and Warren hits most boxes for a TE with a plus on most. So yeah, he’s a great prospect, no doubt, 1st round talent as a TE. But when I look at him through the lens of that PSU offense, they were running so much through him, I’m not so sure it was beneficial to seeing how he translates.  They were getting him open in the flat, running weird trick plays, and designed a lot of ways to find him on delayed seam routes and such. So a lot was structured around getting him the ball in creative ways to advance the ball, in steady sequences, methodically down the field.  Thing is, yeah he’s catching a ton, is big, and can block, but throw him into an NFL offense in a more traditional sense, he’s gonna be stickied by speedy LBs and big nickels. I just wonder how he is in a more isolated fashion— when he’s just a piece of a greater NFL offense getting shadowed by more talented defenders. I think it could still be great but I have question marks when it’s at the TE position. Will he look no different than other very solid TEs or is he this offensive centerpiece at the position that doesn’t come along often (Bowers, Gronk, Kelce, Witten, TG, etc)? I think he brings a ton and could be one of the safer TE prospects, but what I’m unsure about is if you’re really getting this new age Witten type people are crowning him as. Even if that’s the case, is that worth it? If he wasn’t in PSU’s Franklin/Allar offense, would you be seeing the same output?  More questions than anything - I could get on board with it, but it’s hard for me to really project because of how that offense was (which was so frustrating at times). 
    • Twitter sources, but supposedly the Rams want him. He might actually go Round 1. 
    • You aren't going to ever get him out of the equation. As he has stated previously, he believes it his right to make the final call on decisions.
