You were left with a punt returner labeled as a bust, an UDFA punt returner from Ohio State, a raw rookie, and a cagy vet best served as a third WR to work with.  We’ve played a quarterback as a receiver at times this year.  The team spent 8.5 million total for 2015 for the WR group for you to work with. 

People proclaimed that Cam would have a terrible year, that the offense would be stagnant, and the season was lost when KB went down in preseason.  And we saw this playing out in preseason with one Corey Brown drop after another.  The fears were rampant and fans clamored for the Panthers to go out and get such castoffs as Nicks, Welker, Wayne, Moss, and Lloyd. 

But people underestimated you and this group of receivers.  A Demon Deacon, you are the perfect receivers coach after spending more than a decade in the NFL getting by on a savvy ability to get open and make the critical catch.  Perhaps there was no other position coach that meant as much to this 15-1 season as Ricky Proehl.

Kudos to Mr. Proehl for a job well-done.

      Who were we going to trade up with? The Dolphins wanted Proctor, the Rams were vehement on taking Ty Simpson, the Ravens wanted Ioane, and the Bucs werent trading with us except for maybe a kings ransom. Even if we wanted to move, we had no partner. Moot point.

      NFL top 10 Defenses

      Devin Lloyd is a stud lb but who is next to him? Prince and Nic should improve. Lee was super value but i am not counting this fourth round chicken yet. I would expect some improvement; hope to eat my words w/ a top ten D.

      I mean I agree about diminished Cam probably still being viable. Even though it gave a preview of how teams would defend the pass against a limited QB. There was an issue with the upcoming contract he was due to get and his expectations vs the new reality of his physical status - that people tend to  overlook when looking back on it  It had an effect on things I believe   But I do have to ask… what about Tepper’s second major move? fuging clueless   I mean I would take even an injured  Cam over Bryce all day long.
