Don't hold your breath for a WR claim today

Wow Stockholm Syndrome is high on the Huddle today. People are now saying we have fine or even good receivers. We were 19th in passing last season and have downgraded significantly overall. I don't care how you try to spin that, that's really really bad.

On the other hand, people thinking we are going to improve our receivers from the waiver wire are just as delusional.

No receivers, but I could see a possible OL pickup.

Gino Gradkowski, former starting center for the Ravens who was traded to the Broncos but lost his job there and was cut today along with Montee Ball.

If the team wants somebody with more experience at center backing up Ryan Kalil, I could see this guy getting a look. He started at center for the Ravens Super Bowl winning team.

To any who wonder, no he is not associated with John Matsko. He was drafted in 2012, the year after Matsko left.

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.

Much better response, you let me down with your last one.

Looks like the "we already have enough" crew already made an appearance in this thread. I guess a injury prone rookie, an old man that did nothing last season, and unknown cut, and journeyman receiver and a UDFA with terrible hands is enough.

 

I guess it goes without saying if we do make a move those same hypocrites are gonna be gobbling down Gettleman you no what, calling it a fantastic move.

    • Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.   
    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying. 
    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
