i dont think people realize just how bad he was when he got here and how much of a project he really is.

 

he might be more naturally talented than the other WRs on the roster not named kelvin benjamin, but he's not "better" or at least better prepared than the other guys who have roster spots.

 

i have a feeling that they are having to start from ground zero with this guy so it may take a while. i think it should be worth it when they get through with him, but i don't anticipate that being any time soon.

Wrs aren't really the problem at this point. He's probably not better than what we have and with no injuries at the position, there really isn't a reason to bring him up

agreed.

 

someone ahead of him would have to get hurt or really start messing up their assignments or start dropping a lot of balls. the guys we have right now are doing everything they are supposed to be doing. there's no reason to demote them for a guy who is still more of a work in progress than anyone else on the roster.

no , us panthers just like keeping talent on the bench and p squad

 

which is something that every team in the league does because uh that's what both of those things are for

 

so the panthers are smarter than 27 other teams because a talented player like hill made it through waivers to us and we signed him yet the panthers are somehow also too dumb to play him at the same time?

People had visions of him starting and leading the league in receptions within a week of his signing.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
