All hail our 1000 yard receivers

[smash_n_dash]

Kelvin Benjamin and Greg Olsen both finished with 1008 yards this year.  Im so glad we got Olsen years ago, he's slowly becoming my favorite Panther since both Hardy and DLo probably wont be on team next year.

 

If only KB could stop dropping the ball, he'd be up there competing for best in the league.

 

Here's to a hopeful win next Saturday!

Benji's gotta get over whatever it is that's making him lose concentration, but damn, if Olsen hasn't really turned himself around.  Remember all the things Chicago said about him?  Sure don't see that here...

LOVE #88!!!

I said it years ago but greg Olsen was a steal.

[LUUUUUKE]

Chicago never used him like he should have been used, I knew when we got Olsen that we'd be good at TE for years to come.

the kid needs to be a huge off season project for Ricky

Turn himself around? Olsen was always good.

You know who's not a 1000 yard receiver?

Anybody on the Ravens not named Steve Smith

Turn himself around? Olsen was always good.

 

He's become more complete though...Chicago complained he wasn't much of a blocker and that he fumbled a lot.

If we had only kept the core WRs from last season.

 

There were many on here who blasted Gettlemen for it.   Here is what we would have to deal with:

 

1.  Steve Smith's contract would be guaranteed for $7 m in 2015 and $9m in 2016.  While he topped 1000 yards in Baltimore, I am not sure that would have happened here.  Last season, Smitty had 745 yards and 4 TDs. Definitely not worth $23m over the next 3 seasons.

2.  We would have had to match offers to Brandon Lafell and Ted Ginn, both totalling over $6 million per season (Combined).

3. You would not know the name Philly Brown.

 

Gettlemen has to make every decision with the cap in mind.  He is taking a sick ledger sheet and making it healthy.  The fact that this team is in the playoffs for the 2 years he has been cleaning the books is incredible.

I want to give you all the pie.

Smitty would have propelled this offense immensely! I'm thinking at least 11 wins. The argument is a moot point though. To sit here and say that our offense wouldn't have been more dynamic with Smitty is utterly ridiculous though.
