Panthers Not Set At Wide Receiver

[CelticCat]

So, nobody wants Nicks this year?

[rayzor]

i feel the same way...that we aren't done at receiver.

 

but then i remember feeling the same way about OT pretty much all offseason last year.

Why won't we even go after guys like Eddie Royal and Harry Douglas? I understand not breaking the bank on one WR, the problem is in Gettleman's mind, anything more than a 1-2 year contract for virtually get minimum is considered breaking the bank in his mind and your just not going to land a legit no 2 WR with that mentality.

Torrey Smith yes would be pricey but isn't it worth paying a legit no 2 WR 7-8 mill a year who is only 26 years old and could be our no 2 for years to come?

 

Having signed Ginn, I don't think it would benefit us adding another 7 yr+ vet outside of Cotchery and Ginn that is another #3 or 4.  Royal still has a lot in the tank but I don't know about his fit with Brown and Ginn both being similar receivers.  Like its been said, a physical #1/2 type would be great like Strong.  Maybe even a Smith, Agholor, McBride, or Diggs would be a decent fit.

Harvin pls!

I'm breaking my rules of not wanting locker room cancer, but he would be a game changer........

Only keepers are KB, corey, and ginn. ALL others can fight for the leftovers. I do hope the panthers carry 6 WRs this year. Get with times guys.

Would it surprise anyone if they took a WR in the first again?  Not me, I think it's likely actually.

I'm trying to understand the fascination with Smith as a #2. He caught one more pass than Cotchery in 15 more targets with a 34 year old Steve Smith as his only real competition for looks at wide receiver.

I don't see Parker, White, or Cooper falling.  Strong would be the obvious choice if available but I don't know if anyone past him matches up value wise compared to what may be available at other positions. 

 

I think there are some teams that will reach for Perriman and Devin Smith though but that wouldn't be DG.

It's why I would prefer Harry Douglas, I always thought he was buried behind Jones and Roddy White and was always solid

[CarolinaCoolin]

Am I the only one not as high on strong as everyone else?

[Kakarot]

Now this is what I like to read: offense and receiver talk! Hopefully, we're not done and add a WR from the draft and pick up another FA. We really need a #2 guy

[The Huddler]

We went 12-4 with LaFell as our #2. Would it be that hard to find that calibur or slightky higher of a player in draft or the 2nd week of FA?

I imagine not. I hope we get a stud but imo LaFell is the bar

David Gettis come on down and save the Panthers!!#

[Rags]

I'm starting to think thats why Cam isn't signed long term yet, I truly believe Gman has a legit fear of long term commitment.

 

i'm starting to think you don't know how football works outside of madden

[jasonluckydog]

Tell Ricky to suit up he can coach and play.
