those alligator arms get worse and worse the farther down the field he goes. IMO, all he can be counted for is a return specialist...which is something we need, but it's rough on the overall roster to have just one guy for just one reason.

Anyone who can return punts which requires you to barrel head long into 11 guys trying to take your head off ought to be able to catch a ball with only one or two defenders trying to separate you from the ball. It has to be a mental thing. He is surely tough enough to concentrate on the ball and not try to overprotect himself.

A lot of people knock him, but I was at the Arizona game last year, he caught a skinny post right in front on me, took a huge shot, held on, and popped right back up. For a second, I thought it was Smitty, but got up, 19, I was like damn... he showed he's more then just a return guy to me on that one catch. I'd welcome him back here on return ability alone, but he fits as a weapon on O as well

Indeed, being high is something he's proven to be good at.

The next Josh Gordon!

 

LOL, boy oh boy do we got a casual college football watcher here.  DGB needed guidance and Bob Stoops and his staff provided it.  Hence the reason he didn't get in trouble while being on the PRACTICE SQUAD at OU last year.  Being around a bunch of pros like Olsen, TD, Luke, Cam, and Cotch will take the man to another level.  Who on the Browns is a good leader?  Oh that's right, no one.

Huddle doing its best impression of a guy who broke up with his girlfriend and got depressed during the post-breakup dry spell.

 

Booty calling your ex is never the answer.  

Panthers in desperate need of KR/PR.  Ted Ginn = elite KR/PR man.  I call that an answer.

 

Can't act like this was a breakup in the first place.  There was no animosity between him and the Panthers.  He was on a 1 year deal, we had to move him up the depth chart due to injury, he stepped in a did a good job, and his value increased.  Arizona offered him more than he's worth, even if he would have put up 500+ yards and 5 TD's with them, and then they didn't even use him for anything but KR/PR, which makes the deal look even worse.  Dave is not dumb enough to make a deal like that.  Now he's probably a cap casualty, and can likely be had for vet min, which is what he's worth.

Ginn coming back to Charlotte makes perfect sense for both sides. Panthers need the special teams help and Ginn has always wanted to be known as more than a return specialist and the Panthers are the team that allowed him to do that and he knows that. I think when (and if) he is released from AZ, Ginn coming back to Carolina is probable.

What about his shitty route running and his tendency to quit on pays he's not involved in? Did they fix those problems too?

Also, have you ever seen DGB play in person? I have. Amazing physical specimen. Lazy on the field unless he knows he has a chance to be part of the play. "Casual" college football fan... lol. Is 28 years as a season ticket holder "casual"?

      Taylor Moton gets emotional talking about what happens next year

      By BrianS · Posted

      If he really wants to be here, that can happen.  It's totally up to him.  Yes, he'll have to take a hometown discount to do it.  He'll have to show that the last two seasons were outliers and he hasn't become an injury risk. It will come down to money and how much of it he wants.  If he wants to be paid at the upper end of the scale, it won't and can't happen here.  When healthy, he deserves that kind of pay and if he wants it someone else will pay it. It can totally happen.  And it's totally in his court.

      MLB Devin Lloyd for WR Jalen Coker??

      By Basbear · Posted

      He was on the "sideline" during OTA or mini camp, Im sure there was some Twitter/X post but news just moves so fast now.  He's not getting the press as TMac or even Horn, but he is making plays. That's the other deal, Im a big fan of his!  Just in order to get great value you need to give value in return. I said he would have been a 3rd rounder in 2025 draft, he just had bad luck with injuries hurting his stock and coming out in a deep WR class.

      I've always said that PFF is a tool. If you don't know how to use it, or don't want to know how to use it, then it's useless. But some people actually do know how to use it---which is why it still exists and is used by all 32 NFL teams---and part of this is putting it all within context----seeing the bigger picture. If you don't understand that not all players, develop at the same rate, have different levels of talent, have injuries that affect their play, and face different circumstances in regards to the opposition and coaching, for example, then I don't know what to tell you. Coaches set expectations based upon a variety of things, not only last year's stat sheet, which may have been brought about by dynamics that you, as a fan, may or may not understand. And even if you have some understanding of them, as a fan, you still will never have the clarity that they do---the concerns or the context that they do. As a fan, you should even be putting your lack of understanding their context, into context (and stop trying to act like you know something to be true based upon a bad season at the end of the day).
