6:36 p.m. No word yet on Carolina's picks... but, two former NFC South quarterbacks have already been cut and are now available -- Joey Harrington and Chris Simms. Chances are the Panthers won't have any interest in either after trading for Josh McCown. Then again, you never know.
6:26 p.m. Here's something to think about down the line. The Panthers will play the Minnesota Vikings in Week 3. It turns out the Vikings top left tackle Bryant McKinnie will miss the game after being suspended by the league for four games. That is good news for the Panthers, especially defensive end Julius Peppers.
EARLIER: Nice timing on this one.
Panthers No. 4 cornerback and returner Ricardo Colclough was arrested this morning for driving while impaired. He was arrested at 2:35 a.m., the morning of Carolina's cutdown day. He spent more than five hours in a Mecklenburg County jail before being released.
Colcough seemed to be on the right side of the bubble before this arrest, but don't be surprised now if the Panthers send a message to the rest of the team and cut him.
We'll find out sometime after 6 p.m.
Ricky Manning Jr. is still out there, but I doubt the Panthers will bring him back given his past history.
--According to report from the Miami Herald, the Miami Dolphins will get a seventh-round pick from the Panthers in 2009 in exchange for QB Josh McCown.
--A lot of teams have announced their cuts, but the Panthers are typically among the last. You have to wonder if the team won't put in a waiver claim on returner Eddie Drummond, who was cut by the Pittsburgh Steelers. Drummond was the returner ahead of Samie Parker in Kansas City. If the Chiefs thought more of Drummond than Parker, then so might the Panthers. Drummond is a former Pro Bowl returner.
--A number of former Panthers have already been cut by other teams, including FB Casey Cramer, TE Keith Heinrich, RB Alex Haynes, C Pat Ross and DT Atiyyah Ellison.
