Speed at Wide Receiver

[Car123]

Reason we signed Stephen Hill.

It's  overrated. Route runners with hands are much more dangerous IMO. Those traits are more difficult to find.

It concerned me in the first half but I think we can deal without Hill at the moment and let him sit on the PS and learn up until late in the season/ begining of playoffs.

Denarius Moore is being grossly misused in the Raiders' offense.  He is a vertical receiver, and they aren't going vertical.  Here, he would fit perfectly. Plus he's an adept returner as well.

 

We need to take a chance if the Raiders are willing, and see what we can come up with.

We need to sure up our OL next offseason. That is without question our biggest weakness.

I agree but at this rate we won't be in a good position to get an elite one

The Bears had 0 speed at WR last night with half injured receivers. They still got the job done against the 49ers! You play to what strengths you have/

I'm surprised there hasn't been a Bersin thread yet. We praised him in the pre-season and in practice, and the kid finally gets a shot in a game on a critical 3d down after being inactive, but no commentary. C'mon, Huddle!

Besides the inconsistency on the Oline I feel this is our biggest weakness on offense. We went deep today to Kelvin and Avant and neither got much separation from the DB. Cam sails some of his long balls so having someone who can run them down would be great. Even though he had trouble catching Cam would throw a bomb to Ginn last year at least once a game and he did haul in a few. Plays like that can be game changers. I liked what I saw from Philly on the reverse and he did snag a nice deep ball in the preseason. I hope he continues to develop into a reliable receiver. I trust the coaches with Hill and if he shows something on the practice They will bring him up to the active roster.

 

TLDR: I feel the panthers need to develop a speedster to be the teams deep threat. It is one of the few pieces missing from this offense.

Brown had a big play in the preseason. Maybe we will use him for a big play or two in the future. If we ever bring Hill to the 53 man roster we will have a fast target with size.

Are we just supposed to circlejerk for a week after we win a game?

I prefer triangles.

[Who Said What?]

You can't pick up bargain receivers if they can catch AND are fast. Quit looking at the glass like it's half empty.

 

Yeah, some posters don't understand that a team cannot field superstars at every position.  You have some teams that have three burners at WR and none of them can run routes or catch.  You also have teams with burners and no RBs.  We field a very competitive team with what our salary cap looks like.

Rather have receivers that can catch than are super fast, hate to go back to the Lafell days....

Quality players are picked up all through the draft. All comes down to scouting. 

[catnip]

With the WRs we now have, I don't think we are going to draft any in the early rounds.  O-line is a priority and Mario played lights out replacing Hardy .

Alexander will be back soon and we hope Ealy will develop to his potential.   We are looking to be in a posiotion to draft BPA .  The future looks great.
