This season will be smittys last 1000 yard season

I love smitty but he'll be 34 this season and I think this is his last season as a top receiving threat. How many receivers produced at a high level when 35 or older? We really need to go WR in round one.

Here's some data to back this up. It's happened 25 times since 1970 and those 25 seasons are by 9 players.

he has beaten the odds before

[SOJA 3,516]

It's entirely possible, especially if Cam can take that next step and we add another legitimate receiving threat

[rayzor 9,813]

yeah, lets bank everything on him beating the odds again.

he's done enough beating the odds by not getting hurt and missing significant time the past couple years. he is on borrowed time.

i don't want to go into the season with lafell being our best WR and the rest a bunch of question marks who have been on the team for a year or two and haven't done poo.

[panthers04100 302]

Just last season he didn't look as good as he did in 2011. It really does suck we never got to see smitty in his prime with cam.

Some on the huddle will say do not worry...we have Joe Adams.

[Kevin Greene 9,641]

No it won't.

[panthers04100 302]

No it won't.

so how many 1000 yard seasons do you think he has in him?

He wasnt supposed to be one of the best receivers in the league, win a triple crown, and do other things. I dont think i will ever say smitty cant do something anymore.
