KB not a true #1 WR

[Doyle]

So was mine

 

My joke trumps your joke.

I did say in an earlier post that Benjamin is absolutely a #1.

I saw where you did, and I didnt intend to come across that snarky. I can think of many debates on this forum that is nothing but speculative, but IMHO this one about KBs talent and role on this team is not. I have a hard time understanding the members on the huddle that try to marginalize and downplay KBs accomplishments.

I've seen several Huddle posters make this statement. I can't begin to fathom the rationale for those who hold this view? What more could people expect from a WRs first season? His 1st year stats were amazing considering that he didnt have the luxury of a competent #2 to take away the tight coverage schemes he faced. He just needs to clean up the drops.

 

Im with you on this. KB was impressive for rookie. Drops or no drops. Just because he does'n't run a 4.3 who will have those on the huddle knocking his potential. He very much can be a #1.

Better than Dwayne Jarrett.

I don't believe that huddle rules mandate that you are required to read or post on thread topics you don't like. I may have to verify that with Igo though?

But regardless, thanks for your insightful contribution.

Meh, 1vs 2 is just fan talk. Every team needs at least 2 wideouts that can be reliably productive. KB has great size,can make circus catches and is a good blocker. He needs to work on reliability and consistency.

We need at least one more WR that can be productive, and best case scenario someone that is explosive and can get some good YAC since that's not KBs game. That's why I'm an Agholor fan, think he is a perfect compliment to KB. I doubt he makes it to 25 though

I agree with the need for diversity but out of curiosity,

Why don't you view KB as a #1 WR?

 

His lack of speed takes a dimension away from him. I think of #1s as being multi dimensional players that can beat you different ways and requires scheming to defend. I dont know that KB is that guy. 

 

Our opponents can let him catch 7 for 125 and still hold our offense in check overall.

And why is that his fault?

OP's terrible, ruined by lack of thread title punctuation. 

 

As far as KB - Remember the last game he played in a Panther uniform?

[CarolinaSock]

Not that I disagree with KB being a #1, but if you're targeted 146 times, 6th most in the league, shouldn't 1000 yards be kind of expected for a non slot receiver?

[KendrickPanther]

And why is that his fault?

 

Fault has nothing to do with it. I'm not an NFL player because I'm fat and slow. Why is that my fault? He's a good player. I'm a big KB fan. But I don't expect him to join that premier class of WR.

How hard is it to click a thread and just briefly scan the first post?  It only took till the 2nd page for people to assume the OP was being misinterpreted by most huddlers.  But yeah, let's fret about the title and that he's (edit: not new) and didn't know better!

I appreciate you having my back Sax, but just a little correction. I read much more than I post, but im not that new, I've been a Huddler since 2008.
