Final Panther cuts 8-30-2014

I really wouldn't mind giving Hill a shot. Let Proehl try to develop him. Keeps young blood at WR. Competition breeds results. Whether or not Hill improves and can prove to be useful or if another young receiver helps push KB, Philly, Bersin to keep improving, we win in that deal.

Set it up. Give him a 2 year contract with no big guarantees, see what Ricky can do with the kid.

You would be claiming him so it would be a two year around 1.5 ish million dollar deal (what's left on his contract if I remember right) with zero of it guaranteed.

For those wanting Hill, which WR do you want us to cut when we pick him up? Who are you willing to give up on?

Or, a simpler solution, cut McNeil from TE and carry 6 WRs? Hill becomes the #5, Philly becomes just the return man.

RE: Hill, exactly what i was thinking. I hope we do it.

Safety wise, i'm a bit surprised by the Lester cut. I didn't think he would become much better than he was last season, but still... we don't have a lot back there and Harper has been injured virtually all of PS and will likely have lingering issues if he stays.

Furthermore, I will really be disappointed if Godfrey ends up getting playing time at ANY position outside of ST gunner knowing his performance pre-injury and after how he's looked this offseason.

Barner isn't going PS. Reeves will.

Reaves won't go to PS if he goes to IR. I hope he doesn't but I'm hearing from people on here that he will. Which is why I am so bent on us signing a RB at least for practice squad.

Also for those who want Steven Hill. Yes he is a great physical specimen but is he better than any of the WR we already have on the roster? Not including Philly Brown because he's the punt return man.

If any coach can help Hill it is Proehl. I sometimes think Hill was over hyped because of the WRs before him at Georgia Tech were successful and basically the same body type as him. I could be wrong though.

    • I really appreciate Bill explaining his methodology here because that gives interested parties a chance to try and recreate the results themselves. I believe that it's safe to assume that despite emphasis being placed on WRs that Chuba Hubbard is one of the Panthers' top-5 weapons. Considering targets, yardage, receptions, etc... Adam Thielen and Xavier Legette are also on the list. Jalen Coker's success might have snuck him in there as well. I can't draw a conclusion on who #5 is though. I've narrowed it down to Diontae Johnson, David Moore, Ja'Tavion Sanders, and possibly Rico Dowdle if they're taking into account his production for the Cowboys in 2024.
    • Unfortunately business is business especially when there are large sums of money on the table. Goes the same for player and ownership. Does not make it right either way.  Why would he not want to play for the niners? Closer to home with a team that has a chance of delivering a SB trophy. 
    • I don’t know if it’s him bad mouthing his former situation in public or my pettiness but either way I’m not a fan. Dude was on playoff teams getting paid millions to entertain. I’m not better that because and I am better than that. You don’t bad mouth your former employer in public. Esp after getting over paid and two, poor little Russian baby didn’t get the playing spot he wanted. Rod had him exactly where is was supposed to be.  He had a mean lip check and did defend our players. Specifically the devils game around Christmas where is our Haula on his ass. Cool. Thank you. But don’t talk poo about us. Because it make you look like Haula.    “need to get as far away as possible”. fug off. Didn’t see Burnsy bad mouthing and his play dropped off too.    sorry, but Orlov doesn’t get a pass from me. See you twice a year…
