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.

      Draft Week Rumors, Leaks and Media Draftniks Final Mocks

      By Panther53521 · Posted

      After watching Dan for 3 yrs now, I think I understand his plan. It’s a simple plan that should work for the long run.     I saw some of this last yr. Dan wants a vet and a young player at each position. I really think we go OT if one they like there. Moton is aging, Icky will not be back until 27, if ever. We need to get ahead of the tackle problem

      Panthers Sign QB Will Grier

      You are just stressing too much about these particular positions. You want to upgrade from Bryce and I understand that but you aren’t going to really get that without getting into a bidding war for a QB2 potential QB1 like Willis. You could possibly trade for Mills or the backup for Chicago but they are still gambles and their teams will won’t decent picks.  Again the Eagles thought KP was a capable enough backup to trade for him once their backup was hurt and won a Super Bowl with him as QB2. The point is most teams aren’t rolling with some stud QB2/3 that is going to push even a bottom tier starter. They are better off the building their roster in other areas. The Rams are rolling with Bennett right now as QB2 for example.  The goal is winning absolutely. We overachieved last year even with stumbling into the playoffs. Another year and this staff needs to take the next step in building a team. Will Grier has little to no impact on that….

      Three straight first round WRs is straight up Matt Millen poo. Considering the draft capital we have tied up on Bryce after that trade we would basically have spent damn near all of our draft capital in recent years on QB and WR just to put one of the most anemic passing offenses in the league on the field. Clown show poo.
