valuable info, glad to see he wants to show others.  You have to have knowledge to pass it on. 

For what it's worth, Kelvin (34.75) doesn't have a ton more wingspan than Devin (33.5), but d'amned if it isn't a game of inches.

Looks thicker to me. Maybe I just forgot how massive he is...

​Exact same height and weight as Cam. Getting bigger and taller has been our GM's focus past 3 years. Only players under 6 feet tall are the RBs and WR Ted Ginn.

That's just arm length, not wingspan.  His wingspan is probably at least 6" longer than Funchess.  Wingspan = fingertips to fingertips so it includes both armlength and shoulder width.

​Add Philly Brown, Damiere Byrd, DeAndre Pressley, Mike Brown, and Kurt Coleman to that list, you're a few short* (see what I did there)

​Thanx for Coleman forgot him. Now Corey Brown I had at 6 feet last year. Did he shrink an inch this off-season? The other 3 I left off as not having a strong chance to make the final 53.

​fair point.  They don't measure that, that I'm aware, in the NFL (or at least the media doesn't report it).

    • Torn achilles.  The reason he was out more than half of last season.
    • When the panthers are bad, we sell a shockingly low number of jerseys, and options become limited. In the good years, we had a lot of different options. I think T-Mac is going to have to play well on the field for his jersey to get produced in the FUSE template. 
    • it's not the only way to be a threat, it's certainly important for certain roles in an offense and for certain type players and offenses.  as is the ability to get open quickly and generate easy throws.   as far as Renfrow goes, I have consistently said he is sort of his own thing and not really in comp w/ others here.  It's a niche role/job.  Anyone talking about something else from him isn't me.  Just depends if we want to do what he does and if he can still do it.  as far as AT goes, yeah, he does lower our ceiling given the % of our offense that goes through him and his limitations at this stage in his career.    He should be a roleplayer, much like Renfrow should be if we want to insert what he does into the O....not an O being run through him.    Renfrow isn't going to lower the ceiling if used correctly.  Niche assignments to move chains.   It's like a short yardage RB that comes in to pick a random play.  Renfrow is best at that 3rd and 4 type scenario IMO. AT lowers the ceiling because we build the pass game off an old WR that shouldn't be the focal point of a pass attack.  Not to mention, Bryce Young is practically tailor made to get the ball in the hands of YAC players.   So you need those type on the field.
