Carolina Panthers coach Ron Rivera thinks Stephen Hill ready to help

Someone please help me understand the fascination with Hill. I get people wanted him activated last year because of his speed, but now we have Brown and Ginn. Both of them are better than Hill. I don't see Hill as a #2. He is another Jarrett. I'd rather have King back on the PS.

All I can say is that I am equally as enamoured with Hill as any receiver that we have not named Benjamin. Take that whichever way you like, but I think you know what I mean.

As for specifically answering your question about people's fascination, it's pretty easy. They dream of his upside. They are hoping the measurables will productively translate to the field.

Love to hear it, as I said before, Stephen Hill has the size and speed of megatron

 

What?  No he doesn't.  Johnson is much, much more well-built than Hill, allowing him to out-muscle DBs relatively easy.  

 

Stephen Hill really isn't as fast as some people think he is.  It doesn't translate on the field (maybe because he isn't a good route runner, which means he is indecisive and slow in and out of his breaks).  Similar to how De'Anthony Thomas ran a 4.5 but will dust people on the field.

    • This play was never designed to go to either DJ or Odunze. The primary read is Burden who is stymied early, with the outlet being Kmet if Caleb doesn't like the option for Burden. Given the situation it's pretty obvious the simple play is to take the free yards with Kmet, or if you want to be aggressive just wait a beat longer for Burden to uncover on his double move. If Moore was ever going to be a viable target in this play then Caleb should have started out reading Odunze to hold the safety in the middle and then coming to Moore, but because he started the snap staring down the right and then came back to the middle late it made it where the safety's leverage remained to the outside of Moore, so he would never have imagined that pass actually being thrown to him in that situation. Realistically DJ's best option in that context is to just occupy the safety to leave a hole open for Caleb to get it to Burden, which is probably why he throttles down vs carrying the safety across.
    • Even with Sonny Styles still on the board I thought it's a no brainer to address the Oline after Icky's injury.  And how can you pass up Fano at 19 given our situation. Then the rest of the draft just kind of made sense with maybe the exception of Klubnik.  But if Canales can fix him and Young goes down. . .I think it's a solid pick. What do you think of this draft?
    • When we didn't trade him to the Rams or the Bears (I believe the Bears said they would take one of Brown/ Burns/DJ Moore) we should have just signed him and kept him.  We should have traded him to the Rams obviously and we should have kept DJ and traded Burns.  We made all three wrong choices with Burns lol.
