​They also need an over the middle possession guy. 

I don't believe that's unique to Bersin.  Cotchery does his work in the middle of the field.  Funchess could very conceivably start but shift inside for the speed guys.  ​ Olsen's spread at least half the time and is tremendously reliable.

Also, I clicked with the promise of quantification - snaps/targets - fair enough but I don't see any quantification of these items.

Brown/Ginn are the speed additions that were missing during the early part of the season last year. The Panthers don't need every guy to be small and speedy, just a couple. 

 

Bersin is a big dude with as good of hands as anyone on the team at next to zero cost. Plus, Cam loves throwing to him. Why would you want to cut a guy like that?

​Plus the hair.  dont dis the hair.

Cotchery is old but I agree it's either him or Bersin not both. Funchess is a rookie and not even a first round pick with not a deep draft.  Could he be amazing yes,  could he not also yes.  Don't crown him till he's in pads playing in a real game.  Olsen is a TE sometimes he has to block or isn't open.

​Because he wouldn't be on any other team in the NFL.  That's why.  If it wasn't for ole JR, this dude wouldn't be in the NFL.

​One more week of OTA

The couple weeks of summer school. 

Then a few weeks of nothing until July 31. 

​Ok. So I don't want to sound Stupid. July 31st is Training Camp?

 

If there first game is August 14th? there is only 2 weeks of Camp? or are they still at Camp when doing Pre- Season?

Sorry, I am just trying to follow the path

bersin represents everything a lot of very dumb users on this site hate about this organization

there aren't a lot of wide receivers in the NFL that are 4th or 5th on depth charts that absolutely smoke him.  his skillset and stats are pretty typical of his role.  oh but dur he wouldn't be in the NFL if it wasn't for al davis i mean jerry richard$on amirite

he's extremely cheap, can be cut with almost no loss (if any at all), and is a halfway competent possession receiver.  i'll never understand the out of control over the top butthurt over the fact that he has a roster spot.  as if having some other scrub at the bottom of the depth chart would make us a significantly better team.

      How am I all over the place?  I'm still saying that. I'm saying that Chark at his best and T-Mac right now, on the same team right now for the 2025 season, T-Mac would be ahead of him on the depth chart Week 1. Because in the same way everyone is saying, "T-Mac hasn't played a snap in the NFL yet", the very same is true to say, "nothing Chark did in his past matters moving forward" His peak was a 1,008 yard season where he was the only decent WR on a terrible team.  He didn't put up the 1k yard season because he was a great WR, it was because of how bad the rest of them on the team were. His stats aren't the same as his ability, and his ability was never all that good to begin with. Hell, most of this board agrees that T-Mac is our #1 right now, even if Thielen is Bryce's #1 option early in the saeson just because of the comfort level there, he's still just a slot safety valve and T-Mac is our #1. If you put peak Chark on the roster RIGHT NOW (even without T-Mac)... is anyone even putting him over Thielen, XL, or Coker going into this season? I'm honestly not sure many of us would consider him as such, because even at his best, he was just a JAG.  So if the same people who are okay with T-Mac being ahead of those guys right now, wouldn't put Chark above them, how can you in the same breath say Chark was better than T-Mac already is now?

      Dude... you're just all over the place. You're the one who said T-Mac is better right now than Chark was at his best.

      When I say "average NFL WR", for me, that's comparing him to all WRs in the league during that season/span of time.  He was of course better than those #4-6 WR's that can't even get on the field, but talent/ability wise, he probably wasn't any better than a #3 WR for most NFL teams, he just happened to be on one of the teams in 2019 with even worse WR's so he put up solid stats for the season. Here's more or less how I'm looking at it. Take T-Mac right now and Chark at his best, put them on every NFL team at this very moment, and where would they fall on the depth chart come Week 1 (basically, the teams that don't put the rookies at #1 to "make them earn it in camp" don't count, it's projecting week 1 depth charts). T-Mac would be at worst the #2 WR on the majority of teams this season, (hell, he's likely our #1 at this very moment right now already), peak Chark would not.  Yes, T-Mac still has to prove himself at this level, but his current ability, even as a rookie who hasn't played a snap yet, would have him above Chark on any team's week 1 depth chart. Because again, you can't just fall back on "well Chark had a 1,000 yard season" and use that as the reason for having him above T-Mac.  As he didn't have that 1k yards because he was a beast, it was because he was the only halfway decent receiving option on a bad team that was always losing and passing the ball (the Jags had the 7th worst scoring differential that season).
