2019 PRESEASON/FINAL CUTS/OUTLOOK

PRESEASON INJURIES OF NOTE

Nothing major. Worst injury is a backup DT out 4 weeks with strained achilles tendon.

FINAL CUTS

WLB Joseph Williamson

LCB Mike Wilkins

REGULAR SEASON OUTLOOK

POWER RATING: 70. Best in NFC. Philly (67) and NY (66) are right there, though.
ROSTER: 100. NY, Carolina, and Houston are at 85.

DIVISION RIVALS

(LAST YEAR'S RECORD IN PARENTHESIS)

CAROLINA (9-7)--The Panthers freed up some cap room and signed a handful of mediocre players to 2-3 year contracts, and they actually look quite solid this year. Their QB, Bernie Cason (51/51), is one of the aforementioned mediocre guys. He had an 87.8 rating for Baltimore last year in 10 starts. Their offensive line is very good, and the defense looks like it could be decent. They look a lot like a good human team right now--5 guys rated in the 60's-80's, and a bunch of guys in the 40's and 50's.

NEW ORLEANS (8-8)--Bucky Hartman didn't have all that good of a year last year, and he was released in favor of 2nd-year man Bert Fisher (40/59), a 2nd-round pick for the Saints last year. RB Sammie Erickson, a fourth-year man who rushed for over 1,500 yards last year, is back and looking good, and has a solid offensive line to run behind. They're probably going to be no better than mediocre defensively.

TAMPA BAY (2-14)--Jason Raymond went down after 1 game last year with a Degenerative Hip Condition, and will miss all of this year (49 weeks). They've signed former Falcon 2nd-round pick QB Will Dawson to a 2-year deal. He's got a decent set of receivers, but a weak offensive. The defense looks like it will be decent, but nothing special.

DIVISION PREDICTION

Atlanta 12-4

Carolina 10-6 (WC)

New Orleans (9-7)

Tampa Bay (5-11)
