Have seen several questions as to why I left him off my roster. 

At this point, I think he is far from a lock to make the team. A 30 year old corner that has spent more than a year out of football really has his work cut out for him. Do you cut a young corner with tremendous potential for a guy that is on the other end of his career and may not hold up? 

He will have to do more than impress in camp and preseason to get a jersey, imo. Can it be done? Sure. Have to wait and see though before I am willing to take a young prospect off the roster though.

I'll just post a highlight video of him basically getting torched all game long.  One int that turns into a TD does not make this dude have "tremendous potential."  

 

 

Exactly.

I especially love the one where Smitty ran right past him for the TD....with White not being within 5 yards of him.

Let me clarify....as he was beaten TWICE for TD's that game.

Pthat waling out a pic of Melvin as an arguement of his tremendous potential is like pulling out a pic of Dominik Hixion for the same argument. Gotta give more reasons than that zod

 

edit. Talkin bout the division win over saints for hixon

That was a pretty good analogy...

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      So answer the question. Why did Chark and Hurst have the same metrics (go look them up, I did... and one was actually worse in LA) with Justin Herbert? Why did Mingo have the same metrics with Dak? You're right, there is a common denominator, just not the one you're trying to make.  Why could DJ Moore get open with Bridgewater, Allen, Cam 2.0, Darnold, Baker, Williams, Bagent? I'll answer the question for you - because he is a good WR unlike Chark/Hurst/Mingo.

      I mean I just don't understand the argument. Baker and Sam both have been pro bowl QBs post their time here. And you just said yourself that is due to him having a damn good roster around him and they are well coached. You're even saying the bad baker is still there somewhere, but he is in a good organization with good roster and coaching that they are getting the best out of him. Why does Baker and Sam get all that benefit of the doubt but when it comes to Bryce it must be a BY9 problem, not an org or team problem?  Hell I got a guy below you arguing with me that Chark/Hurst/Mingo sucked because Bryce wouldn't throw them open. It's ridiculous how far the stretch goes.

      Correct.  It’s really hard to get open in the NFL when opposing defenses gameplan and cheat coverage/routes on all your players because they know your QB can’t make certain throws/plays.   magically no one that comes to Carolina can get open or make plays with the ball in their hands…..it’s like there is one singular common dominator to it all.  BY makes playing defense way too easy.   NFL players are too good to allow one side to cheat coverage and not respect all the potential threats of a route  so you can dial up a great play.  But if corners and safeties just cheat coverage and know X and Y happening on route/threats….getting open gets hard when they just play it one way.  Getting open has a lot to do with the different threats a WR can pose on a given play.
