I know it's only been two games but still worth noting..

Amari Cooper- 158 yds, 1 TD (top 5 pick so that kind of production is expected.)

Nelson Agolohor- 36 rec yds 0 TDs

Jaelen Strong- 0 stats (many on here wanted during the draft and yes even myself included)

Kevin White- Out for the season injured.

Justin Hardy- 0 stats

Dorial Green-Beckham- 1 rec 13 yds

Breshad Perriman- 0 stats

Phillip Dorsett- 3 recs, 70 yds

Tyler Lockett- 6 recs, 51 yds, 1 return for TD

 

So there you have it, all these other WRs we wanted Gman to draft so badly (yes even myself) like Perriman, Agolohor, Dorsett and Strong just to name a few aren't exactly lighting it up either.

Way too early for even thinking about trying to even really breakdown his ability or skill set. 

What I want to see is a completion on a crossing route across the middle and seeing if he can make some YAC on a play or two. Just to get him going. His upside could be incredible. 

This is reminiscent of folks calling out Shaq as a wasted pick after game 1.

    • I've shown you numerous comps for other tackles in the same age and talent range.  His contract, taking into account his age, health, etc.  is the going rate.  It's a fair deal. I've shown you examples of how long it usually takes to find even an average replacement.  Hell, look at every tackle that has ever started for the Panthers.  How many would you consider a success?  They are not easy to find. After everything we've done with this team since drafting Bryce why would we decide to let our best linemen go and add a huge question mark at tackle?   FA is a crapshoot in which any guy available will have cons/issues.  If not, they'll cost a fortune.   Outside of a first or maybe 2nd round pic next year it'll take a few years for a tackle to learn the position at the NFL level.  There are still questions about Icky. Every vet NFL player deals with maintenance.  Between the contract value and history I'm not overly worried about his knee.  I contend his knee issue isn't anything to be overly worried about.  It's not zero risk but it's an acceptable risk.  Every player we draft and every contract we sign has risk.  You're blowing up his own negative words about his knees and ignoring him saying he is healthy and the knee is a non issue.  You have a strong chicken little complex with this team.  Being he has always been a Panther they are very aware of any health issues. We paid now because now is cheaper.  If his knee was really an issue they would have waited.  That tells me it's not the issue you want it to be.
