Panthers Final Roster Cut Down Open Thread
At some point today the Panthers will begin trimming their roster down to the mandatory 53 players. It may come out in one announcement or we may hear a few at a time. This thread is for logging the cuts and providing a forum for discussing the cuts. Feel free to discuss cuts from other teams as well. We are all transfixed as to whether the Panthers would pursue a veteran WR like Patrick Crayton if he should become available (My bad, I missed Crayton's trade to SD). There probably more than one surprise cut before this day is over.
If you would like to predict who the final 53 will be James has a post just for that here.
So that's all the intro I got...this is now an Open Thread!
==========
Update 10:30am: Cuts so far: LB Morty Ivy & OT Rob Pettiti
Update 3:06 pm: We also know that Hunter Cantwell has been waived, reports are that CJ Davis has been cut. Robert McClain and Tony Pike appear to have made the 53 man roster.
Update 3:39 pm: Steve Reed confirms that Kenny Moore has been cut, per his agent.
Update 3:50 pm: Same source who broke Kenny Moore news reports that DBs CJ Wilson and Brian Witherspoon have been cut.
Update 4:22 pm: It appears KoS Todd Carter has made the 53, but more intriguing is that the Vikings have placed Rhys Lloyd on waivers.
Update 4:25 pm: Nic Harris has made the team, DTs Tank Tyler and Corvey Irvin have been cut.
Update 4:43 pm: Bubble player Marcus Hudson has made the team
Update 4:47 pm: FB Rashawn Jackson has been cut
Update 4:57 pm: S Aaron Francisco has been cut and given an injury settlement.
Update 6:22 pm: LBs Sean Ware and Quentin Culbertson were cut.

As much as I'd like to see neither Pike or Cantwell on the roster
I can’t see Furney not keeping a 3rd QB. Maybe we’ll see a vet become available on the waiver wire but I don’t see them having just Moore & Clausen.
I agree
I would like to see them both put on practice squad and if they get snatched up so be it, but my gut feeling says they’ll keep one of them on the roster.
Rules and Regulations of the Game: 89, Bottom Line
They might name Edwards as 3rd QB, then have a spot for an extra WR.
They can call Edwards anything they like – he’s a multi-tasker.
that's my hope
but it just seems to make too much sense for it to happen.
Rules and Regulations of the Game: 89, Bottom Line
Won't be 3rd qb
They might carry Moore & Pickles as the only 2 qbs on the roster, but they won’t list AE as qb3. Doesn’t mean they won’t use him as qb3…but he’ll stay wr on roster
Semantics.
You’re right, of course. I was speaking of practical usage. Whether he’s on one line or the other, he still could play on both, eliminating the need for another QB, and freeing a spot for an actual productive member of society.
You're obsessed with Edwards at QB.
"You see, in this world there's two kinds of people, my friend: Those with loaded guns and those who dig. You dig."
Nah. I just don't see the other 2 as being worth a roster spot.
There are going to be some tough cuts announced today, and a player or two who showed great drive and hustle, and deserved a jersey would have to be cut, in order for Cantwell or Pike to make it. Until Thursday night, I wouldn’t have considered cutting both, but they showed me nothing, and Edwards at least could step in there if it were an emergency, as well as they could.

I think there is a 3% chance we sign a free agent like that but if he did, look out. I’m not sure how productive he would be but if he still has it then there is no way we’re not a playoff team. The Panthers have to at least entertain getting a number 2 WR who can take pressure off of Steve Smith.

I doubt the team will dribble them out one at a time. We’ve got a watched pot to look at for a few more hours. I’d think early afternoon.

I didn't see Pike play in the last game, but from what I did see he was pretty accurate ...
… and made good decisions, at least for a rookie. All he may need is to beef up that arm, and possibly retool his throwing mechanics a little. Cantwell overhauled his whole motion. Pike may have potential, but it will take a lot of hard work, more so than even most pro players will endure.

Half of that is no shock. Cantwell played like crap, but I would have thought they could try to put Pike on the PS, and if he got signed then oh well, not like we need a franchise QB in a couple of years. Armanti would have been fine as an emergency #3.
Now we have a wasted roster spot on a QB that will never see the playing field, EVER.

Wasn’t happy when we drafted him, less happy we’re keeping him. Would rather keep Guy and have someone who could return punts, maybe even catch some passes.

He looks the part of a QB physically, but he doesn't have it working upstairs.

TJ would be an AWESOME compliment to Smith
I do hope we can get a reliable, proven WR. I like the young guys, but they need a mentor.
No Pops. This is a smart move. By having Pike carrying the clipboard
we don’t have to worry all season about Pickles getting a papercut. Brilliant!!
Where there’s a will… I want to be in it.
Ah, so that's it.
Transfer the injury hazard to the 3rd stringer, and off the 2nd. Smart.
I'm going to hazard a guess...
…but I wonder if retaining Pike accomplishes two things for the Panthers.
1) They can still retain Cantwell by exposing him to the waiver wire and resigning him to the practice squad…which MIGHT be a more likely thing than trying to do the same with Pike…and…
2) Maybe they’re uncertain if they’ll be able to keep Matt Moore at season’s end when he becomes a free agent. If so, Pike becomes our #2 QB with Clausen taking over. And maybe they still have Cantwell as the #3 QB off the practice squad.
I don’t know. We’ll have to see how things play out. But there’s no doubt they’ll be losing another player they could have kept by making room for Pike on the 53.
My two-cents,
—Neil
When theyre cutting players do they do it by position?
Like once they cut a qb, or receiver, they cant come back to the qbs or receivers again to cut another 1 later?
There’s no rule that says they have to do that, but they may be doing it in a certain order, possibly that way.

The 85% rule may have come in effect with Pike
In a uncapped year a team has to pay 85% of a rooky contract if he’s cut. I hope this means Gettis in, Jarrett out. I’m sick of that guy. Every year it’s the same thing with him. Reminds me of Colbert.
JR saves everyhow much Jarrett is due this year and you essentially get Gettis for free. If they do it for Pike, a position of need, then it seems to the same argument holds for Gettis also at a position of need.Gettis has shown flashes in the last two games.I think Martin gets a spot for Wright.

I really don't understand the anger.
This is the nature of the business. You can’t keep all the guys you’d like to keep. We need a QB to groom behind Clausen – at the moment Pike is that guy.
"You see, in this world there's two kinds of people, my friend: Those with loaded guns and those who dig. You dig."
i can throw harder than Pike.
He is going to get someone killed. We do not need this guy ever. We can draft someone else next year to groom or pick up a udfa or sign someone that was cut. This is just retarded. Anyone is better than him. We should have kept Cantwell over Pike. BS spread noodle armed QB. Damn I hope he gets busted with a dead hooker and a kilo of cocaine. GET HIM OUTTA HERE!

I’m sure they offer anger-management classes in your area. Just kidding. I don’t really care for the move either.
Overall Panthers Draft Grade: A
Why do we have to keep a guy we're grooming, behind a guy we're grooming?
Just how long is this grooming conga line, anyway?
Because...
A) What if Moore goes down with an injury? Who do you have behind Clausen? And what if he gets injured, or his toe doesn’t permit him to play?? Then you have to have somebody..
AND
B) in the future, long term….being that Moore has only this year left on his contract, who would we have as a true QB next year behind Clausen?? If you cut Pike now and keep 2 QBs, then you might only have 1 next year…
thereare a ton of schucks you could call
If Pike gets on the field. some reciever will miss the rest of the season. he will get them hurt bad. the guys SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It seems to me like everyone was expecting them to keep Pike from day 1, dont know why you are surprized. They drafted him knowing he would miss the first 2 weeks & that he would fall behind the others.
And the knowledge that, that he would be #3 on the depth chart. Implicitly, that means if the team has to turn to him, our season is likely over anyway.

regardless of what we've seen of pike this summer
the guy is smart, accurate, and a proven winner. He has the intangibles, they just need to work on his technique and mechanics. Hunter worked on his technique and mechanics and still stunk it up

what is your beef with Pike??? Yes he has the weakest arm right now, but he’ll be working on it this season and have a full offseason under it after. Why is it so hard to see that Pike has SOOOOOOO much more upside than Cantwell does? Either way i don’t think anyone will even bother taking a look at Cantwell and he’ll clear the waivers and will be back on the practice squad.

Yeah, the Pike hatred seems a bit extreme to me too
I could understand letting him go, and even just rolling with AE at #3. But as it is I understand them wanting to see how their 6th pick in the draft develops. The guy barely got any opportunity this preseason. And when he did, while he didn’t light it up, he did give us a few things to think about. Not giving him even a year to develop seems a bit extreme.

What are you basing this "he can't thrown the ball" on?
He has a better QB rating and completion percentage that Matt Moore and only slightly worse than Clausen. Other QBs have made a nice career without the strongest arm. Pike on the other hand is only a 6th round 3rd string QB whose only played in 2 preseason games. Buying him a year to develop is not that big of a deal.
on behalf of tha dirty south: soul food, carolina blue, southern hospitality, and tha queen city
did you not see him play?
the balll come out soooo sloooooooow. he got 3 guys rocked. and one a concussion. got forbid he makes his way onto the field in some crazy circumstances, and gets smitty put on IR. then what? darn? seriously I hope he gets in trouble or something and we let him go.
i cant believe you of all people are believing in him. maybe you are just playing your devils advocate roll.
I am an optimist. It does not seem too much use being anything else.

OH!
Nobody's supporting him do the extreme that you are criticizing him
We understand that a #3, 6th round QB is NOT going to start a single game for John Fox in his rookie year, even if Moore and Clausen get injured.
Had Cantwell lit it up and they released him to keep Pike then I’d agree with you. But he didn’t. So therefore I don’t see anything wrong with holding onto your 6th round investment and seeing if he can improve.

People talking about going after Houshmandzadeh, wouldnt it take him half the season to learn the play book? He would be running the wrong routes wouldnt he?
No, they'd simplify the playbook until he got up to speed.

Pike is a project, and should be treated as such
He has the instincts of an NFL QB, but not the arm or the tools to take snaps under center.
The organization (and myself) saw enough out of him on Thursday to see there is potential there. He’s also a guy who bobbled every snap under center and the OTAs and now he ran the offense for a half. He wasn’t good, he wasn’t great… but to cut him now would have been poor judgement.
Cat Scratch Reader's resident optimist.
I've nothing against the guy, per se...
But nothing for him, either. But when all these cuts are announced, there’ll be AT LEAST one guy that everybody on this blog would’ve loved to still have on the roster, I guarantee that.
And Tony Pike will be wearing that guy’s jersey. And every week, the non-playing, non-activated, project developing Pike will be preventing your guy from having a chance in the NFL. All to save a couple hundred thousand dollars.
In all possibility he’s just taking the roster of a guy who would be inactive most weeks anyway.
Can’t the same argument be applied to Matt Moore 2007-09? A non-playing, non-activated, developing Moore sitting on the 3rd string taking someone else’s spot?
For me the argument is “What is Pike’s ceiling vs. (insert player’s name here) ceiling?” for me, Pike could develop into one of the better backups in the league due to his size and accuracy. He looks like a giraffe out there, but the Panthers knew they were getting a spread offense, project when they took him.
Cat Scratch Reader's resident optimist.
Here's the difference in the situation. Then we had an aging, oft-injured starter,
and marginal talent at QB2. Now we have a young, healthy starter and an even younger higher-ceiling QB2. Pike may be decent in three or four years, but right now, who cares what Pikes Peak is? We don’t need him.

Correction, they keep young QB's with the potential to eventually play
That ain’t Pike. My 13 year old daughter can get more velocity. And if he has more arm than he showed, he has no concept of how to utilize his arm. He almost cost us 3 receivers thursday night.

OH!
Cantwell stuffed up the pipeline, now it's Pike's turn, huh?
This is all about the money, as is everything. They’re obligated to pay Pike. Period. And all our talk about it now is just free debate, and won’t get personal, until later in the day, when even James will see one of his guys get cut, and say to himself, damn! he could still be on the team, had they not kept that project, Pike.
Why is it all about the money?
Give me one good reason?
Is his guaranteed money as a 6th rounder going to be more than the money they had to pay Jake to get him out of here?
If there’s one thing we’ve seen this offseason its that the Panthers will pay whatever it takes to get someone out of their hair.
Furthermore, if Pike was picked up on waivers his new team would be obliged to take his contract.
Cat Scratch Reader's resident optimist.
Then it's a bad choice, IMO.
Sure, your opinion is validated, and that’s important to you, I grant you,
But, as I say, let’s revisit this debate later in the day, or tomorrow, when we all know the REST OF THE STORY, i.e., who else has been cut.
Don’t post any objections about anybody else who’s been cut, because that one guy could’ve still been on the roster, instead of your validated, noodle-armed, run-for-your-life, here WR you’re about to get creamed, can’t take it under center Pike.
I’m tellin ya, it’s all about priorities and choices, and they just made one that’ll affect one of your other roster down the line, James.
This is nothing personal to you. I’ll feel the same way. It’s just that I’m already felling it, cause I know it’s comin’.
We can argue his abilities all day long, and I respect your opinion that he's wasted
But It’s not about money because if he cleared waivers another team pays, we pick him back up for the PS we’ve already paid.

Pike's Peak. In Pike Position. = Piker.
Take a hiker.
also
I think he does have potential to be a starter in this league. You look at how much Tebow had to change and he’s looked good to me. This guy seems like a smart hard worker. And with that height he could easily see the whole field to make awesome throws.

Maybe he can be, but on the Panthers?
To my eye, everybody on this blog is solidly either on Moore’s bandwagon, or on Clausen’s. Maybe on both. I never heard anybody on Pike’s bandwagon, as opposed to the other two.
The thing is
we never know what can happen in the NFL. Let’s say Moore or Clausen is our next franchise QB for the future. They get hurt in the preseason or early in the season. Pike comes in and lights it up and we have another Bledsoe-Brady thing going on. The guy has the ability and the work ethic, he just needs to beef up the arm.

The thing about his arm is...
If he was a little guy then it could be unlikely. But he has the size to make you think that he could bulk up nicely. Maybe he takes a year to focus on beefing up, and then things become very interesting.
But don’t expect him coming in any time soon and “lighting it up”

I cant believe you can even come to this conclusion
did you not see how slow those balls were. Its like a much much weaker chad Pennington throw. just gross
I am an optimist. It does not seem too much use being anything else.
~Winston Churchill
OH!
He's a 6th round rookie in pretty much his first ever NFL action
You’re basing everything on that little bit of playing time. Norwood had less then 1 tackle in the last 3 games… do you want to cut him too based on that little bit of performance?
on behalf of tha dirty south: soul food, carolina blue, southern hospitality, and tha queen city
Norwood has talent,
and his play is not going to get one of our other guys hurt. If Norwood couldnt talcke or get off a block then i would say cut him.
A QB that cant throw… come on. there were guys cut today that we of use to this organization. we could have found another useless project QB if we ever needed to. Next pre season when he ends a good WRs season ( and hopefully not career) then you will see what I am talking about.
But we need that spot. and he has it. and he is a waste of a roster spot.
I am an optimist. It does not seem too much use being anything else.
~Winston Churchill
OH!
You are basing your ENTIRE argument on arm strength
It is incredibly flawed. Arm strength is fixable, fottball IQ is not. Hes clearly not stupid, and knows how to play QB, he just can’t get the ball through the air quick enough. No matter how hard Jake tries, he can’t be a Payton Manning, because he doesn’t have the brain to pull it off. Brawn is FAR less of an obstacle.
Either that or you base all your picks on whether they are able to play next week. That’s not the reason for keeping Pike. Pike showed enough football IQ to not clear waivers, so we are keeping him. Done deal.
you cant fix arm strength
or else chad pennington would be peyton manning. And what football IQ did he show? he ran away. often to the wrong side. the guy sucks and will always suck. and I hope he doesnt get anyone hurt. the dumbest thing we have done so far
I am an optimist. It does not seem too much use being anything else.
~Winston Churchill
OH!
Penningtons a 6ft 3 and 35 years old
No he’s not likely to get any stronger.
But Pike is at an age where many guys are still filling out. He is much thinner than Pennington and also taller. He has a frame with a lot of potential to add bulk to.
If he doesn’t get better than oh well you wasted a 6th round pick. But freaking out because they want to give him a year to work on some of this seems a bit extreme.
on behalf of tha dirty south: soul food, carolina blue, southern hospitality, and tha queen city
Pennington has always had a weak arm
you dont think that it never crossed his mind to get stronger? Adding strength doesnt get you to throw the ball with more zip.
I am an optimist. It does not seem too much use being anything else.
~Winston Churchill
OH!
But it could make his arm stronger
And make him a better QB.
I really don’t think either one of us really know what physiologically might make Pike’s arm stronger. All I know is that giving him a year to make progress is understandable.
on behalf of tha dirty south: soul food, carolina blue, southern hospitality, and tha queen city
if you could learn or work out and be able to throw deeper and with more zip...
Then Jimmy Clausen would have a cannon that would make Mike Vick’s arm look like a 8 yo lil girl. But you cant. you can work on technique, but it will only get you so far. The guy is never going to be able to throw a good ball. And we will one day lose a player because of it.
It is really going to suck when Im right on this one.
I am an optimist. It does not seem too much use being anything else.

What does everyone think of the Vikings trading Rosenfels?
Seems insane to me
Cat Scratch Reader's resident optimist.
What's the rest of the deal?
"You see, in this world there's two kinds of people, my friend: Those with loaded guns and those who dig. You dig."
Rosenfels and KR Darius Reynaud to Giants for an undisclosed pick in 2011 and a conditional pick in 2012
The pick in 2011 is likely a 5th round or lower
Cat Scratch Reader's resident optimist.
Very strange.
"You see, in this world there's two kinds of people, my friend: Those with loaded guns and those who dig. You dig."
Indeed
The Vikings are already in a precarious position relying on the most aloof man in NFL history to keep his end of the bargain, and now they’ve traded away their safety valve when Tavaris Jackson hasn’t posted a QB rating over 75 this preseason.
Good luck
Cat Scratch Reader's resident optimist.
Could be they really wanted Reynaud, but insisted Rosenfels be included...
Reynaud has mad skills as a returner.
Where there’s a will… I want to be in it.
They might take Leinart off the Cards
….the only QB that would not scare His Eminence. Probably figured that he could outplay Leinart and Jackson for another 10 years.
They could have had him
I have a source in Arizona who told me that the Cardinals are looking for a serviceable backup and a late round pick for Leinart, but thus far no takers.
I would imagine Minnesota could have sent Rosenfels and a 6th to them for him.
Cat Scratch Reader's resident optimist.
I just looked at his stat line
Not really sure I consider that a ‘great preseason’ against the 3rd team.
Only two games he played any real time he had a 52%
Cat Scratch Reader's resident optimist.
Makes sense
Knowing that our Panthers team has mostly players on it from the draft, doesn’t it make sense that we keep Pike over Cantwell? Last year Cantwell impressed me during the preseason, but this year he was nowhere to be seen on the field I guess he knew his days were numbered after the draft. Pike has got some good things going for him, one of which he is young CAN scramble if need be and has good vision and makes smart throws. I think WR and DL is where we need to keep alot of guys, last year injuries are what killed us on DL
Bucs just cut Michael Clayton
For those of you on the ‘we need a veteran WR’ kick he would be a cheap one. Good blocker too

He’s a mobile QB, and a halfway decent one at that.

That being said, if Housh will sign for the vet min or another comparable talent I think they’ll jump on it, but it seems unlikely to me
Cat Scratch Reader's resident optimist.
Please...trade Pike and a draft choice for Housh.
Then we’d be good to go for this year.
Who cares if Housh couldn’t do it in 2 years. We’ve got WR’s to step in then.
Telling you....The guy's already got his money this year.

Other news
QB Pat White, WR M. Clayton, and Kicker S. Graham have all been cut. Personally I would like to have Graham back in Charlotte he is way better than T. Carter and would cost about the same whihc is next to nothing. Interesting about White former 2nd rounder in 2009 w/ Dolphins~speaking of a one trick pony or Wildcat QB. Look for something similar to happen with A. Edwards in a couple of seasons. Clayton offers nothing and no way I would want him, all he does is run block and catches nothing only what 3 or 4 TD’s over the last three or four seasons with the Bucs. S. Graham I would take back however please dump T. Carter b/c if Kasay gets hurt their is no way I want T. Carter out their having to kick field goals or PAT’s, and he is not that consistent in kickoffs either but it is not like we score anyway so does it really matter ?
by Holty_Panthers_Fan on Sep 4, 2010 12:56 PM EDT reply actions
No way on two kickers.
I hated it last year when we had two. Shoulda kept Lloyd and dumped Kasay. I want more spots for football players. Repeat after me: KICKERS ARE NOT FOOTBALL PLAYERS. If Kasay gets hurt we could pick up a guy when he gets hurt who is at least as good as he is now.
by The Kackalack Kid on Sep 4, 2010 1:08 PM EDT up reply actions
Kasay,God Bless him, can't kick off any more, and his FG range is shrinking.
But you can’t cut Kasay, can you? That just seems too harsh, even if it makes sense.
Where there’s a will… I want to be in it.
It's not personal, just business...
We can build him another statue. I just miss a guy who could boom it into the stands on just about every kickoff.
by The Kackalack Kid on Sep 4, 2010 1:26 PM EDT up reply actions
Are you serious? Where are you going to find a field goal kicker as reliable as Kasay?
Because he missed a 51 yarder last game? He also made a 51 yarder last game. A lot of teams wont even try a 51 yard fieldgoal.
Actually he'd have made a 50 1/2 yarder.
Damned those new, thicker crossbars!
My issue is with his reliability, and his health throughout the season.
I don’t see how a guy his age, who has already seemingly lost a little in the last few years, can hold up all year long. He’s past his time. We’re keeping out of an emotional appeal, not from football sense.
by The Kackalack Kid on Sep 4, 2010 1:38 PM EDT up reply actions
Yep, he set his range pretty well at 51 max. And the one that actually cleared the bar
was low and blockable, if my recollection serves. There’s still nobody I’d want more from 45 in, though, so he’s still a valuable commodity. And he’s a legend, he has tenure so to speak. He’s also a leader and an example to the young guys. So I won’t advocate cutting Kasay to free up a roster space (even with one already wasted on Pike who provides no value).
Where there’s a will… I want to be in it.
He'll never be cut. When it's time, he'll retire, with fanfare.
And he’ll know, when it’s time.
Redskins giving up on willie parker. Not saying we should get him by any means, just interesting news.

Matt Jones was just cut to but no shocker their; once promising career may have just officially ended today. No way I would want him either. What the Cards, Vikes, Chargers and another team stated on rotoworld.com that they have made trade offers for TJ and the panthers are not among them. So I guess we can stop with the all TJ to Carolina talk b/c it aint gonna happen no way I would getting into a trading war for a one year rental WR and I would not take on any of his old contract with the Seahawks.
