Ted Ginn Jr could return to Panthers

I've been saying that ppl would really miss Ginn. Everyone was all about praising Philly because he was gonna be this awesome punt returner, but he couldn't hold on to the job or put up the production Ginn did.

Letting him go was a poor choice to begin with.

The Panthers could afford to match the offer from Arizona. They didn't want him to leave.

Paying him what the Cardinals did would have been a worse choice.

People shouldn't worry about this being our "FA splash," because it wouldn't be.  Ginn isn't a Target acquisition, he's Dollar Gentral guy that got overpaid.  If he comes back, it will be on the Dollar store pay scale.  That shouldn't disappoint anyone.  He's a good returner, that is serviceable as a #4-5 receiver, and is a threat when he has the ball(or when he's on the field for that matter).  His speed has to be respected.  DG knows what he's worth, and knows the role he would serve, so it's hard to imagine they stop there... if he's brought back.

 

Plus, I always loved to holler, "one mo' Ginn, one mo' Ginn!" every time he had the ball in his hands.  Got pretty popular in 531 while he was here.  I started hearing quite a few other people yell it when he was back for returns.

So he's worth one catch?

Domenik Hixon caught the game-winning TD against the Saints that helped win the division and a 1st Rd bye.

Ginn is two or three times as likely to drop a beautiful and perfectly thrown deep ball as he is to actually catch one.

So you wouldn't want him, at the dollar store rate, as a returner/WR 4-5?  FWIW, he dropped 3 passes that year.  68 targets, 36 receptions, 556 yards, 5 TD's, drop rate of 4.4%.  Fits said role very well, if you ask me.

It's def a possibility and I wholeheartedly want Ginn back in Charlotte. Superb #4 deep threat, adequate #3. Above all else, above. All. Else... He's a PR/KR stud. Do want.

Is he really a PR/KR stud or does he just seem that way compared to Brenton fuging Bersin? I know he was way over hyped around here as a receiver, but as a KR I didn't think he was that great either. Good, but not great or a "stud." Maybe I need to go look at his numbers and highlights.

    • I don't think we should look at this rebuild position by position. That'll take many years.  Football isn't played that way. It's the ultimate team sport. Pass rush is not dependent on one player or position. Pass coverage is not dependent on just the secondary. Passing is dependent on the entire oline and your receivers. Rushing is not dependent only on the running back.  They've addressed every major area. That's all you can ask for. Make good decisions during the draft, and then it's the coaches turn to put it all together. 
    • It's tough. Yet again, such a huge roster flip. 10 starters added via FA/Trade - LG, RG, WR, TE, CB, S, ILB, (2) OLB, & (1) DL And then, whether internal moves/promotion/coming off injury, our starting C, TE, and other ILB (Shaq) will be different from last season. So we're looking at 13 new starters for a 2-15 team.  Losing Luvu stung a bit, but the rest were all understandable moves.  I am whelmed.  Without knowing results, it's a B for this team mid-reconstruction. Problem I still see--I don't know how we're going to generate offense with our current RB & Receiving rooms.  Dionte is a good addition but we still have no one to really become the "dude" on offense.    We're still pretty sparse and needing the Kyren, Achane, St. Brown, Collins, DeVonta type addition that could help this team do something, anything on offense.  The player that can help truly define an offense if you don't have a QB that's a top-level playmaker.     The good news is that I think we have a OL that will be able to pave lanes for that type of threat, we just need to land one now.        
    • That is Morgan's supposed job. Get Canales and Evero the folks they want while fitting it in the cap.
