How exactly would you expect anyone to give you a list of teams with worse receivers when you have already convinced yourself that the Panthers have the worst? You will simply point out how they are unproven, or don't drop passes, or had a great year 4 years ago when they were a rookie, or whatever you choose to use to justify your stance. That is a no win proposition.

 

But I will give you one team I think is in worse or the same shape as us. And that is the Bears. They have Alshon Jeffry, Eddie Royal, a bunch of no names, and an injured rookie.

 

Go ahead and tell me why their receivers are better than ours.

The KB injury hurts but Olsen being a top 3 TE puts it to where we won't have the worse receiving core in total.

Our pure WR talent is pretty poo with KB down...with KB i think everyone was very excited...a dominant #1 really opens things up for the other guys. Funch looks pretty smooth out there but with his injuries is too much of an unknown...we've seen some drops and some great catches.

that's the biggest thing is that with KB down it changes how teams match up with us.

exactly how I expected you to answer I'll still wait on that list. 

You're not getting it.

First off, I could easily give you someone like theTitans. But then you'll go back and talk about Harry Douglas like he's an all pro and Kendall Wright isn't an underachiever and Dorial Green-Beckham didn't have issues in camp and Justin Hunter isnt in danger of being cut and blah, blah, blah.

But again, there's more.

Do you know who Mario Alford, Myles White, Frankie Hammond, Darren Waller and Tyler Murphy are?  

I sincerely doubt you do without looking them up, so I'll tell you.  They're the lowest receivers on the depth charts of five other teams. You've likely never heard of any of them, and there are plenty more names like that to be found if you look around the NFL.

So what, you ask?

So their teams decided they'd rather have those guys than any of the guys on waivers or any of the available veterans.

Now to someone with enough understanding to actually look at the facts and comprehend the reality of our situation, this will be helpful in gaining perspective.

For you, probably nothing. But I'm used to that.

We are fine at WR. Olsen, Ginn, Funchess and Cotch (catching everything in pre season) good O line, we are set. This offense may finally be getting chemistry again post KB injury, no need to Fug it up with another WR. 

If our O line keeps balling out I predict that Cotch might even ALMOST match hhis 10 TD season in Pittsburgh. 

We are not FINE at WR but there is no one else out there worth a damn.

      Grading the Panthers' 2026 Draft Class

      By Basbear · Posted

      They know within 15 mins.  Many moons ago skins drafted Heath Shuler at like 5th overall and Gus Frerotte in the late rounds. You know the plan, its Heaths team. Old OLman stink said within 15 minutes they knew Gus was the better QB.  I didn't need 15 or players on the same field, I just knew like Bill said "he better walk on water", which he hasn't. I do blame tepper mainly for it, he spend the greater part of 2 year telling everyone Watson would be a panther......and fail....but a great fail...then Stanford turned panthers down.....tepper was beyond pissed and wanted a QB. He forced the trade and picked BY......and now by .....some grace of the gods formed a team with 4 QBs of no hope...... insane given the other roster spots.....

      He definitely knows nothing about the Panthers, but there’s no denying he’s a pioneer in this whole draft grading and mock draft field.

      I actually say wait five years since that's long enough to know if a player  became something worthy enough for a long term contract, whether with their original team or someone else. Therefore... 1 (8): Jaycee Horn - Has been questions about his durability but when he's healthy, he plays at a high level. Should we have drafted Pat Surtain or Micah Parsons, however? Arguably could’ve done better, but he's still here so that's a W pick. 2 (59): Terrance Marshall - Yet another classic Panther WR bust. I don’t recall seeing anything in his college tape that made me excited about drafting him in the first place.  3 (70): Brady Christensen - Proved to be a versatile player on the O-line.  As of now, we haven’t signed him back and I feel that we should. That's enough to say he was a solid draft pick. 3 (83): Tommy Tremble - Hasn't emerged as a consistent productive player, but he's had his moments here and there. We can certainly do better, but we haven’t found that guy yet so he still has some utility. W because he's not Ian Thomas. 4 (126): Chuba Hubbard - Surprise of the draft. It took time, but he's now our lead back.  5 (158): Daviyon Nixon - Had a half a sack with us and... that's it. I think I liked what I saw but it didn't pan out. 5 (166): Keith Taylor - Another guy I liked but only stuck around for two years. Played for a few other teams but nothing really to note. 6 (193): Deonte Brown - I really thought this guy was going to be a steal. He might’ve been the guy that had weight issues and never really got a handle on it. 6 (204): Shi Smith - He scored double the touchdowns that Marshall did in his short time here; it was two. Yeah, the Panthers wide receiver history is rather bleak. 6 (222): Thomas Fletcher - I had to look it up but he was a long snapper. JJ Jansen is immortal, so it was a wasted draft pick. 7 (232): Phil Hoskins - Actually recorded a sack here in his short career. Wish I could remember it.   Surprisingly not a bad draft when you have two good/great starters and a JAG that's still here, plus a good rotation guy most would like to keep.
