===============
The last few cuts were tough. Joe Webb played well enough to earn a spot but I just don't see the Panthers using a roster spot for a QB that most likely will never see the field.
Though I have predicted that Charles Godfrey might be a surprise cut when I run the numbers it makes sense to keep him. The Panthers are probably most unsettled in their CB depth. Though Cason and White appear to be the starters who will provide the nickel and dime depth is still up in the air in my view. Josh Norman could get cut but survives because of the lack of depth.
I loved what I saw from Fozzy Whitaker so I keep Barner as the kick returner but Fozzy slides in at #3 RB. As much as I like Reaves I bet we can stash him on the practice squad.
WR Tiquan Underwood has not shown me much whereas Bersin looked good throughout camp and then made the TD catch against the Chiefs. That was a nice catch.
So what do you think Panther fans?
