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.

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.....

    • You joke, but it can always be worse. He might walk with a limp or need assistance. Different sport, but Lonzo Ball couldn't even walk up steps a year after his injury.
    • I mean... a lot of the information that could've helped set better expectations has always been out there: There was no RB on the team under contract for the 2025 - 2026 season except for Miles Sanders. The team did not have a second round pick going into the 2025 season due to the trade for Young. Chuba's extension did not happen until the beginning of November. Jonathon Brooks was the clear RB1 in the class with a massive gap between RB1 & RB2. Example: Dane Brugler had Brooks as RB1, overall #48; Blake Corum was RB2, #81 overall. The Giants held pick #47 and had just lost Saquon Barkley to the Eagles in free agency. They were going to take Brooks had the Panthers not jumped in front of them. So if we're framing things with that context: Chuba was expected to be RB1 Miles (at the time) was RB2 Brooks was essentially RB3, stashed for rehab in 2024 with a long runway. The original injury occurred Nov 2023 while the re-injury occurred December 2024. That is right in the high-risk window for recurrence, especially in explosive athletes. The fact that it also happened on a non-contact play suggests possible biomechanical issues such as muscle imbalance, rather than a failed surgery (or bad decision-making).   NFL teams invest heavily in medically vetting prospects. If there had been a clear red flag in imaging or recovery markers, the team is going to find it. This sucks and the Panthers have sucked, yes, but this wasn't blind optimism or malpractice by the front office. It was a calculated decision based on the roster, draft capital, positional scarcity, etc.
    • Yep, but they can all rotate with Brown, Brown and Robinson (sounds like a law firm). Can't continue to have Derrick Brown out there for 90+ percent of the defensive snaps. An injury was bound to happen.
