Which new addition will have the biggest impact this year?

Between not having a first round pick, much cap room to work with, and returning 20 of 22 starters, we haven't really made any uber-impactful additions. So, I ask you, Huddlers, which new Panther, be it a draft pick, free agent acquisition, or scrub, do you think will step up and make a big impact for the Cats this year?

I'm betting Kenneth Moore. He's liable to be the only WR not named Smith or Muhammad to dress on gameday. Granted we don't use the slot receiver a lot, but when's the last time we had a decent slot receiver? I think Moore can fill a role that been filled since we had Ricky Proehl, and Proehl got his share of spectacular plays. Between his likely contributions as a receiver, add that Moore will probably act as a return specialist at some point during the season. I think he's going to make the Lions regret giving him up

I'm gonna have to say Goodson. Even if Stewart gets healthy and is in full form, the guy is threat in so many ways. He has great vision, eluding tackles. He can catch out of the backfield and get upfield. Obviously returning as well. He is going to add a new dynamic to this offense that will confuse defenses in the early weeks. I agree that Kenny Moore has the potential to have a big impact as well. I'm very happy with his development (much of which can probably be credited to Steve Smith as much as the coaches). I'm optimistic that he'll show he is capable of being a number 2 WR for us in 2010 and beyond.

munnerlynn on defense and goodson on offense.

overall munnerlynn.

Bold prediction. I like it!

And I didn't even think about Moore eventually working his way up to the #2 WR. I guess I figured they'd draft someone next year to fill in as our possession guy for Muhummad. Can you imagine two WRs with those kind of quicks starting opposite each other? Like DHB and Chaz Shilens in Oakland, either burn their man deep or pull the coverage downfield to open room underneath for our TEs. I might be drooling

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By cranky · Posted

      I can't help but think that you are equating physical attributes alone with wins. I don't subscribe to that thought. No one will argue that Young has a strong arm, but he makes up for it in other ways. The real limitation for him is he needs good route runners with great hands. That's why Young was so good at the end of the 24 season. Thielen and Coker were perfect receivers for him and he had his best games with them. Not having them to start the 25 season hurt. Look at the first 10 games in 25 with a rookie receiver and no Coker and then look at the final 7 games with a more experienced rookie and Coker back and there is a telling difference in Young's performance. Prior to week 10, Young had 1 game with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and 6 games with a rating below 90. In the last 7 games with Coker back, Young had 3 games with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and only 2 games with a rating below 90. The tools a QB has to work with matter more than their arm strength.  To go back to Darnold and Stafford, yes they both have great arm strength but neither had much success with that alone. As I already pointed out, Stafford, even with a canon for an arm, only had 4 winning seasons in his first 12 years. It was only when he went to the right environment that he had true success.

      Report: Panthers great Luke Kuechly being eyed for big TV job

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      I don't love this role for him if I'm being totally honest The pregame show is much more flash than substance and doesn't seem like the right fit for what Luke would bring to the table, and that's his vision of the game. I'd like to see him do something where it more involves him breaking down film and explaining what he's seeing out there, as he sees the game in a way very few ever have.
