Panthers Wide Receiver Depth Chart - OTA Week 2

[csx]

Fast and no hands is useless. See Hill. Every receiver needs to be able to catch first and foremost.

​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.

I just keep reliving all of the times that Bersin has tipped it in the air for an interception.

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.

You have to remember, Bersin was seeing his first major game-play last year.  If he can make the 2nd year improvements that most WRs do, we could have a good young core of WRs.

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.

One time on a not very good throw over the middle that I can recall. When were "all those times"?

Once? You must be exhausted!

​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

Correct

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.

Wait, I thought Corey wasn't even going to make the roster?

[X-Clown on 1]

Definitely the most excited to see Brown and Funchess on the field in camp and preseason.  Funchess looks very fluid when he runs and makes catching look easy.  If Brown has really improved as much as it sounds, then he's going to be a massive weapon for us.
