Kind of feel like he was big against the bad defenses, but not so much against the good ones. Brown, Lloyd and Moehrig are really good tacklers on all 3 levels. He'll have a tougher time against this defense than he did at Dallas.

How in the he11 did they find the cap for all of these guys?!

Again, it's the Jets. They went into the season with Justin Fields as their answer at QB. Sure you want to base your stance on their personnel decisions. Plus don't they still have Adonai Mitchell and Isaiah Williams? Believe it or not, the Jets had a better WR room than Carolina.

That and WRs that are where they're supposed to be, when they're supposed to be there. Talent/ability aside, I think we downplay how difficult it was to go into last season with such an inexperienced group. WRs and TEs were probably the youngest groups on the team.

I'm not really calling Metchie great. I'm calling Carolina's WR room let's just say limited. They're light on speed and shifty WRs. He brings physical attributes and a play style the room needs, and has needed for some time. Can he do it at a high level? We don't know that yet. But right now he's better than anybody else on the roster at that role. And overall better than anybody not named McMillian or Coker. Admittedly, not a particularly high bar to clear. And he's a better option than a 5th or 6th round WR they may try to draft to fill that role. He's a vet that should have an easier time picking up a new playbook, and he already has played a couple of years with the starting QB.

Brady is becoming an actual need now. What's his injury status? Will he be ready to play next season? I don't even know if he's injured at the current. Just know he usually is.

XL is fine. He just isn't a complete WR. He's a role player. Don't think Canales fully came to grip with that until the end of the season last year. Hopefully he'll be used better next season. This team needs the physical attributes he brings to the table.

tuka... it's the Jets. Garret Wilson had 395 yards in 8 games. Adonai Mitchell had 301 yards in 8 games. Metchie had 256 yards in 9 total games played down the stretch when the games didn't matter anymore, and he got there in the middle of the season. He also had the most YAC in the WR room. His game film looks better than anyone on this team not named TMac, and end of the season Coker. Not saying he's a super star right now, but he improves Caolina's WR room.

TMac is probably the only Carolina WR that would have gotten on the field in Houston or Philadelphia. Everyone else is cut in training camp. Coker is actually pretty good but it would have been a numbers game for a UDFA in training camp. Remember we waived him and he cleared waivers to come back to the practice squad.

Numbers don't tell the story all the time. How much PT and targets do you think Jimmy Horn, Legette or Tremaine would have gotten on Philly or the Texans? He's much better than them if you watch him play.

This isn't a nothing signing. Honestly think Metchie is at least the 3rd best WR on the team. He's been put in some difficult situations with deep WR rooms in Houston and Philly. And the QB room in NY was not good last year. He'll be the biggest separator on the team. Reliable hands. NFL speed. And... history with the QB. He'll make the team and hopefully unlock some trust in BY to throw deep more often. Think he can return kicks too.

I mean AT was clearly the best WR on the team when he was here.

We can't put that into another weapon with iffy ability to stay healthy. Already counting on a now 3rd year WR that has missed a third of his first 2 seasons to injury.

Agree. They don't need to go for the best FA at any position right now. Let's just get NFL average on the roster then draft our super stars.

But why are we singling out the QB? So none of the olinemen made bad plays giving up immediate pressure - up the middle by Corbett, Mays, Zavala, Hunt and Lewis and outside by Ickey. Didn't see them point that out. Jaycee didn't get torched by Olave in both Saints games? Didn't see them point that out. TMac dropped passes in big situations. Jimmy Horn dropped a pass in the playoffs. XL forgetting how to control his body on the field. Moehrig misplayed the pass that led to the game winning TD in the playoffs after our QB led us to a 4 point lead with less than 3 minutes to go in the game. Defensive pass rush was almost non-existent except for a few games. None of that was brought up and you don't seem to have issue with it. But every bad moment by the QB should be highlighted in a hype video? Bryce may not be the answer. Right now I don't think he is. But I feel like he can be if he is more aggressive passing downfield. Either way I'm not gonna crap on a guy that's really not in a great situation, because I expect him to correct all the wrongs and deficits of an entire team.
