Carolina Panthers insisted earlier of becoming younger this offseason, and they are doing it after the roster of regular season comes out with players of their choice.

35 players of the Panthers were picked in the draft, which includes 18 of their 22 starters. Total there are 53 players.

For some time before they had been criticized for being cheap this offseason as they did not engaged free agent spending.

Marty Hurney, general manager of Carolina Panthers, said that he is considering it to be a win to keep 9 of the 10 picks from this year’s draft.

He said, “I think it’s hard to win, I guess,” Hurney said. “If we hadn’t kept nine of 10 and we’d have kept two of 10 then we’d have been criticized for not drafting well. It’s hard to win sometimes. A lot of people I talk to I don’t get that from, so I don’t get where that comes from.”

Carolina Panthers even had decided to keep 6th round pick Tony Pike as third QB and waive Hunter Cantwell.

Sources said that practice-squad Cantwell is unlikely to stay.
