10. Tight end
Starter: Ian Thomas
Backups: Chris Manhertz, Seth DeValve, Temarrick Hemingway, Colin Thompson
Analysis: Greg Olsen may not be the same playmaker who averaged over 1,000 yards from 2014-2016. That doesn’t mean Carolina won’t miss him dearly. Thomas is one of the biggest question marks for this offense. While he has plus athleticism, he’s lacking in experience and his drop rate (10% in 2019) is extremely concerning. Thomas needs to develop softer hands and get into a rhythm with Bridgewater fast, because there’s no other true pass-catching tight ends on the roster. Signing somebody like Thaddeus Moss would have made a lot of sense.
