I heard that Josey seemed like a longshot, which seems ridiculous given that he just had 10 touches for 83 yards and a TD with moves like that. Apparently, he's also a favorite in the locker room.

Ealy was a lock, of course, but I guess he's played really well.

From PFF:

Logging the highest snap total of the Panthers’ defensive ends, second-rounder Kony Ealy notched a +2.2 run defense grade in his first night wearing Carolina Blue. Seeing time across all four quarter, Ealy matched up against a variety of Bills blockers, getting the better of fellow rookies Cyrus Kouandjio and Cyril Richardson along the way. With Greg Hardy playing on the franchise tag, thoughts rightfully turn to the future of the position for the Panthers there’s no doubt the team hopes Ealy proves himself worthy of a spot in the rotation sooner than later. If his initial performance is an indication, carving out a role as an early-down option shouldn’t be too much to ask."

No news about LDW since the 49ers signed him. No news probably isn't good news for him making the active roster, but with his size and speed, he seems like an ideal PS candidate.

Britt was a lock and was playing very well.

Lucas has reportedly been impressive, but I think he's a longshot as well, and some teams were looking at him as more of an H-back.

The scoop: Lucas led the Tigers in receiving his junior season and was second last year. Lucas has shown great hands so far in camp, and he could sneak in as a practice squad receiver after going undrafted in May. The Panthers like his size, and he has the skills to match at a position where the final roster spot is up for grabs.


I think EJ is going to make the Rams. He started their last PS game and has played well all of camp. I don't think that surprises any of us.

Sam got a sack in tonight's game.

Waters has supposedly had some moments too.

Franklin has gotten almost no reps.

If I had to guess, I'd say that Gaines and Josey make the team outright and Sam and Lucas stick on their teams' PSs. I'd put the odds slightly lower on Lucas and Waters sticking with the teams their with, even in a PS situation, but none of them seem to have embarrassed themselves.
