Brown's previously unreported procedure is arguably the biggest setback among the group. The Panthers will keep at most six receivers on their final 53-man roster. Kelvin Benjamin, Devin Funchess and Ted Ginn Jr. are locks. That leaves Brown in a bunch that includes Brenton Bersin, Stephen Hill, Kevin Norwoodand undrafted free agent Keyarris Garrett.

The thing about Philly, if we let him walk and Ted gets hurt, we have no speed to blow the top off.  

Never understood this obsession with Philly's speed.  I've never been blown away with his speed.  He looks quicker than fast to me.  Ginn would blow his doors off in a foot race.

brown and garrett get roster spots imo, unless garrett just sucks butt in camp.

not really a big win or loss for the WR6 spot no matter how it shakes out, though bersin seems to be the best candidate by a good bit based on performance.

ran a 4.51 at the combine. Not great for a guy his size.

When was last Philly left a DB in dust? Just completely blew by him?

 

Philly isn't really a deep threat,

He was fast in comparison to the rest of our glacial 2014 WR group so I think it comes from that but he isn't anywhere near fast for an NFL WR.

There were some big plays against Houston, GB, Arizona and Tampa Bay and one in the Super Bowl. I'm not saying he's a great deep threat, just the best one besides Ginn that I'm aware of,

Stephen Hill 

 

I've never seen Hill play but if you're excited about him that's encouraging.

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
