Panthers believe their number 2 receiver is already on then roster, Makes sense he has had all year to learn the offense and get programmed and trained the right way.... he was a number 1 pick and was the number 1 receiver on his last team.

It's makes sense, considering how we do everything else we will draft a receiver to compete for the job, but it's his to lose I think.... this is only my opinion.... don't shoot me.

Considering that most other teams passed on him, that he was passed over for Tavares King by Jacksonville, that he could not beat out Brenton Bersin for a roster spot..... 

 

 

I'd say, yeah, he is totally our next great receiver!

I knew FA would be bad but when Panther fans are trying to push Hill to a #2 job it's epic bad.

Yall kill me...... so negative, being a number 2 is not a push.... he has talent size and speed, and has been working with the receivers coach all years and will get a full off season to work on everything some more.

I'm still pissed about losing King. Thought he had a lot of potential here.

Ok the reason bersin made was because he did more than one thing.

STeams, plus he knew the playbook after 3 years.n

Much like how I'm going to be a better photographer than you with a 20 year old digital camera. And I think lighting is something amateurs worry about

I agree that Hill as a #2 should not be expected, but he has the perfect skillset to be an NFL WR2:

 

23 years old

6'4"

215 lbs.

4.36 40-time

39.5" vertical

33"+ arm length

$600k salary

 

He came into the league raw and I'm pretty confident that most GMs knew he was a project.  After 2 years in a crappy environment, he came here and has been brought along slowly.  He's had guys like Cotch, Avant and Olsen to help him.  I honestly think Ginn can help him as well.  One speedster to another how to use the physics of his talent to his advantage.

 

The Panthers love players that know a system and I definitely see him getting a shot.  I don't think his presence here keeps the organization from looking for a #2 receiver in FA or the draft, but I also don't think the book has been closed on Hill yet.

Not really. Bersin wasn't thrown into punt return duty until well after the start of the season. He never returned punts in camp or preseason.

Right but he still played special teams, and plus he had been trying for 3 years for some reason the Panther made him the golden charity case he a hard worker, but nothing special.....

    • Every team does it's homework. More so than any fan.  Brooks, had he not been injured, would have been a first round talent.  I have zero problems with the team (Dan Morgan and company) drafting Brooks in the 2nd.  He is a fantastic talent.  As far as risk, this is the NFL.  Any and every player is exposed to the same brutality that the NFL is.  Despite Brooks latest setback, it doesn't cost the team much.  Our running back room is stacked.  Could they have drafted someone else? Sure. No promise that someone else would have made an impact last year.  Or this year.   When it's your job to do what Dan does, I pray you get it all right. Lord knows that there isn't a single GM that gets it all right.   
    • Dang, we might not be able to create the same magic from last year!
    • If we were a solid winning organization most of us would have no problems with this selection. We would have had a capable starter in place to allow him to be eased into the rotation. If were told prior to the draft that he had been completely cleared health wise, we "probably" wouldn't have a ton of reservations about this selection. If we had picked this young man on Day 3 of the draft most of us would have no problems with this selection because we wouldn't have had to use draft capital to move up and get him. Unfortunately, none of the above were true 1)  We were a terrible team in 2023 and needed an immediate impact player. 2)  He was hurt near the the end of the 2023 NCAA season. We traded up to get him even though we knew he wasn't medically cleared to play in 2024. 3) When training camp started we were hearing stories that the knee wasn't ready. That alone should have raised some red flags. I personally would have red-shirted him in 2024 in order to have him ready for 2025. We had Chubba as our lead back and other guys to fill the #2 and #3 spots on the depth chart. There was no need to rush Brooks unto the field in 2024. Here's our draft history in the 2nd round between 2021 and 2024 2021 TMJ 2022 No draft choice. We picked Matt Corall in round 3 (#94) as our only Day 2 pick. 2023 Jonathan Mingo 2024 Jonathon Brooks. We have taken 4 skill players on Day 2 of the draft for the past 4 years who have contributed absolutely nothing to the offensive side of the football. 3 are no longer on the team. Two of them are no longer in the NFL. One  could possibly never start a game due to a knee injury. This type of poor drafting is why this team has been so bad for the entire decade.
