Is it time to give up on Jeff Otah?

[Davidson Deac II]

No.

[Match.com]

off with his head!!!

[Jase]

Contract year, he'll play through injury and give the FO something to think about.

[dbeat]

Like Davis, anything we can get from him is just a bonus.

[MadHatter]

Should've gotten rid of him earlier this offseason and pick up someone else, but since we didn't we have to wait at least until TC to make a decision.

He is in the last year of his rookie deal. There is basically zero cap savings by letting him go vs. keeping him.

[carolinarolls]

We'll win with and without him.

Why give up before the season even begins.

That is what these clowns around here do I think. Every day its another person on our roster that is "terrible" and they want to "give up" on.

None of these people have a clue what is going on really and there is no reason to even make these decisions before the season but the kids on here want to write somebody off before camp.

I don't even think he can beat out bryon bell...

[L-TownCat]

dont feel like reading, short answer yes.

That's a clown question bro...

If Otah can compete... he poos all over Bell. Bell ain't in his league.

He is in the last year of his contract.If he cannot play there is no reason to keep him .If he can play there is no reason to let him go.Time will tell but I bet this will be his last year as a panther.

I don't endorse keeping him after this year.... but there is ZERO reason to cut him now. A wasted spot is Clausen or AE. People can moan about him taking up a roster spot when those other guys are gone

[panther4life]

depends on what you mean by giving up. if you are implying cutting him, then no. I personally am hoping for the best(he plays up to his potential this year) and preparing for the worst(Byron Bell starting).

[rainwater]

Huddlers will vehemently defend Otah, right up until he gets cut. Then, all of the sudden, people will act like they knew from the start that he was a wasted effort.

It isn't as bad as the Huddlers who actually think Bell is an alternative to Otah.

[rayzor]

how about we wait until the end if his incredibly small remaining contract is up at the end of the year or at least wait until after training camp?

what benefit would we have in letting him go right now?

as most pragmatic posters in this thread have said, it makes no sense whatsoever to cut him any time soon. let his contract run out or to see if someone blows him away in TC.

if he can somehow stay healthy why would you not want him on the team? if you really don't believe that he can stay healthy what would you suggest we do? how would we benefit by cutting him?

meh......
