i like Dorsett a lot. has the same speed that Smith has, but has experience running many different types of routes compared to Smith. he is smaller, but he gets vertical quickly with legit deep speed. Miami strength and conditioning coach said he ran a 4.18 or 4.21 something crazy last spring. has had some issues with health tho, and hands are inconsistent at times. had a huge week, and cannot wait to see him play tonight.

Watched many of Canes games living down here in Miami. Do Not want Dorsett unless it's Late. Kid does have speed.

He's thin and not very strong and hands are no better than Lafails, quite possibly worse. Smith can get up and snag the ball. Only thing Dorsett has on Smith is a little speed and played in a more pro style O.

I have been a fan of him all year. While I thought we could be able to draft him in the 3rd round he may have worked his way into the second round. While I feel we have more important needs in the first two rounds like safety and tackle,I wouldn't be against drafting smith in the 3rd round.

Do you guys see value in Devin Smith at 25?

Like I said earlier I think he goes somewhere in the range of where Paul Richardson went last year. It's entirely possible he is sitting there in the 2nd when we pick but teams would have to rank him behind guys like Agholor and Dorsett.

Cooper

White

DGB

Parker

Perriman

Strong

Agholor

Dorsett

Smith?

If he's ranked 9th then there's a chance he's around in the 2nd. I love what he brings though and see some value there at 25. He plays the deep ball better than anyone else. He can go up and get it as well and can be used in the redzone. He compliments KB better than Jaelen does and brings that speed/big play element that we're so badly lacking.

Plus, it'd be awesome if he just added an 8 to his college number in Carolina...

I feel Devin Smith will be a gret NFL wide receiver. He has the tools and if you look at the records he broke at Ohio State you will see his name around some great wide receivers such as Chris Carter. I don't think he is first round material but he may be gone before we pick in the 2nd. He would be the speedy WR we need in our offense. He is a much better receiver than Ginn is and has more potential.

I'm starting to warm up to Smith. I'd still take Strong over him. But after him I like Smith just above Perriman. Smith kinda reminds me of a poor mans odell beckham jr. Good athletic ability and hands, really good tools for our staff to work with

      PFF Best Deep Ball Thrower Award

      This is what I mean. I am not some huge BY fan. I honestly don't look at QBs the way a lot of you guys do. Right or wrong, I've always looked at them as just another cog in the machine. Didn't want BY or even a trade up for a QB in 2023. We saw in the Super Bowl how important the rest of the team is on any given Sunday. Now... so PFF, who has no reason to prop up BY, says he's first in 2 stat lines and Panthers "fans" are arguing why it's either wrong or a made up stat just to make BY look good. Even though they have multiple stat lines where he's literally last in. Like 32nd in the NFL. Some he's even lower than 32. Take a step back. Try to objectively self analyze. This is just not sensible.  Same thing I see with other teams' fans and their QBs though. We analyze every single throw on every single play. For every other QB, most here are only using highlights to judge. Makes a difference. We saw Stafford miss throws when they played Carolina - both games. We saw Love throw crap up when they played Carolina. We saw Dak miss throws when they played Carolina - and Pickens was putting on a SHOW. We saw Josh Allen win a game with 163 yards passing against Carolina, but if BY does it he's crap and can't pass for 200 yards. Gents... come on.

      None of us think we're contenders this season but no reason we're doomed to 5 or 6 wins either. Dan has to have another 2025- like draft class and at least 2 key free agent signings. We're not Seattle but they don't win without 5 starters from their last 2 draft classes and Darnold and Lawrence in free agency.  Alas,  we'll have to wait one more season for a QB upgrade.
