For those of you disappointed in no first round WR

There is literally zero difference in WRs that were available at 25 and any number of guys available in rounds two and three.

They all have the same probability of coming into the NFL and making an impact.

Gettleman told us in his presser that this draft class didn't have as many top end guys, but was deeper. Not as many sure things, but more guys that could contribute.

I look for the Panthers to take a WR in two or three, and for that choice to contribute just as much as a late first round WR pick.

Given DG is at the helm, I look for nothing and just let it come haha

 

But yep, totally agree bout the WRs.  Rashad Greene, Devin Smith, etc. plenty and more left (*fingers crossed)

This! people are way to Glued to the 40 times.  Dorsett and Perriman do have good speed but have horrible hands.  Not that Huge of a drop off in Strong, Smith, Greene, and Lockett

Perriman will be a bust- quote me

 

runs only verticals, bad hands, and oh yea his mentor: STEVE SMITH- sure smitty is nice now, but I guarantee you come September Perriman is going to be mentally exhausted from Smitty constantly beating him down

He was drafted into the perfect situation. Flacco's deep ball is a thing of beauty and that's where Perriman will make his bread. 

 

 

lol because drafting an only vertical WR in round 1 has worked so well in the past

Heck no, dude has stone hands.  He did catch well at his pro day.  But thats always been his knock besides his size even going back to STA (where he played 2nd fiddle to rashad green).  Guy can jump up and make an occasional difficult catch, but seen him hit in full stride laying right in his hands.  And it looked like the football was greased down. Many of times

Dorsett has pretty damn good hands.

the offense will be addressed quite a bit in the next couple days with very little drop off from what we could have picked up at 25.

i want cam protected and given more weapons, but i'm not going to stress about it. the OL and WR groups are better off now than they were last year and we've got quite a few picks left to help add more to what we have. i don't know if we'll get anything more than depth at OT (but after humphries got picked, we wouldn't have had anything more than depth to choose fro.com anyway). at WR we've got quite a few options who can come in and be that #2 WR for cam and help open up our offense (as much as shula will allow anyway).

      The only thing I said was he was part of the staff that made part of the decisions, and that I am judging the decisions made by that group as a whole. As assistant GM, you can pretty much guarantee his input held more sway than an intern or the guy that takes coffee requests. Fitterer didn't operate in a vacuum. Neither does Morgan now. While Fitterer did have the ultimate decision, to say that Dan had no input in ranking boards, evaluating FAs, trade offers or anything else would be asinine. We all know he did. Otherwise what the hell was his job as assistant GM? He wouldn't have been kept for 3 years if he was arguing every decision Scott ever made.    And the actual quote was "Morgan has done a bang up job in the draft and FA. Compared to what the last guy did, he is kicking ass and taking names." So is XL kicking ass and Brooks taking names from last years draft or did I get it backwards? We took Wallace over Payton Wilson because he was an injury risk after trading up for a RB with a torn ACL? Which one of the kicking ass and taking names was that?  Maybe we should review the thousands of gameday posts calling for XL to get off the field because he's a bust and can't catch a cold. We could review the posts about Brooks but... And Wilson. He's at 118 tackles this season vs 36 for Wallace.  I gave credit to Dan for a good draft this year. But I'm also not ignoring last year's draft either since he did that one after the last guy too.  That's not a strawman.

      And then, in week 18, we can take Mayfield out of the game and whoop Bridgewater's @$$ for good measure! Let the former QB revenge train roll on!!

      If we keep our guards in tact ($$$) and go with Mays at C, some OT depth would be nice. I think we should be happy about CB with Thornton's development (pre injury) and Smith Wade. I think Ransom is developing nicely, but I would like to see a FS type for situations. We suck at ILB and Edge (as a whole). We should be OK at RB.  I hope we sign Dowdle to a short contract. QB?  There are signs of hope and development.  (I don't like our backup QB) TE?  Good draft for TE, but I think we are developing with Evans, Sanders, and Tremble. WR?  A #2 with Coker and Horn in the slot.  XL?  What is that? We should be good in 2026. Morgan does more than draft.  Free agency has been strong too.  (Just emptying my brain on your comment--sorry)
