Over Bersin? 

Absolutely. Bersin has a role, definitely not as a starter, based on his versatility. That being said, I would be surprised if Bersin makes the final cuts this season, as our receiving corps is only going to be stronger. KB, practice squad guys, free agents, draft.

I guess the intended irony was too high-brow for you.  :P

So where's the built-in indication on your account that proves you know how to spell? You know what happens when you make assumptions, right?

As for Dickson, I think the Panthers were already aware of his stats and his ranking. He'll either be gone next season or he'll be one of the 'why is he still here?' players.

I agree he does have a role. Being on the damn sideline doing poo bc JR feels sorry him.

I never said he was good, I just said that he was better than Dickson! Hopefully, they're both off the team next season for better players. The discussion is about least valuable player, and Bersin is more valuable than Dickson. Especially considering the insane number of snaps Dickson has to get while sucking at his primary job duty - blocking!

Hunter Henry makes alot a sense in the first

Dickson has never been a strong blocker, his best attribute was always his catching ability but that's not as needed with Olsen playing nearly every snap. But we put him in blocking situations mainly out of necessity, we even played him some at fullback despite having a perennial pro-bowler at "fullback."

That said, when it comes to the other options at backup receiving TE in FA, I like the bird in hand in this case. He's solid in that area, probably better than any affordable free agent. Wouldn't be upset with drafting a young TE, though I see this particular class as average. Henry looks good, though. 

But...least valuable player? That'd probably be Wegher or Norwood, both of which basically just took up space all year.

Nothing against Dickson but he is barely a better blocker than Olsen and obviously is nowhere near the offensive threat Greg is. Worth seeing if Simonson or a draftee or FA is able to fill his spot.

Right, but given that you can only dress 46 on game day, there will always be guys who just fill roster space.  Year before it was Foucault.  Only time it would be a problem is if we had injuries.  Thankfully our injuries weren't so bad that we had to risk exposing them to waivers, but I have no doubt that if we had really needed the space, Gettleman/Rivera would have made the right call. in trying to demote them to PS.

[outlaw4]

I think of it this way. If something ever happens to Olsen next season, do you trust the law firm of Dickson and Simonson to at least approach his level of production?

Upgrade, please.

Dickson and swole bones were major disappointments.
