How we went from a talentless WR Corp (minus SS) to over abundance of talent in 2+ yrs is absolutely amazing.

 Obviously it is far too soon to tell but I wouldn't say there are locks outside of KB and Funchess.  I think Ginn is a near lock but not 100%. Ginn is on the 2nd year of a two year deal.  Byrd, Brown  and HIll are speedsters and I wouldn't put it past Gman to make a decision to keep someone other than Ginn.

Don't get me wrong I think Ginn was a key part of our offense but he isn't irreplaceable.. It is very possible that those preseason drops might make a difference this year..

 

He's also got that whole punt return thing going for him. That helps his chances.

If Hill can pull it together, we're going to have to make some tough decisions.   I would be on board with keeping 6, Benji, Funchess, Hill, Byrd and Ginn and hopefully Garrett can be retained on the practice squad.  I just don't think Philly is that good or brings much to the table, and neither does Bersin.  The Broncos showed the game plan to beat us, and what we need is more speed/players that can't be single covered.

Didn't Philly have a huge long pass play against the Broncos? The one where Talib literally had to try to rip his head off to stop him from scoring.

Brown might not be much of a return man but he is just as dangerous as Ginn.  I think he has better hands and runs better routes.   Furthermore, Brown is much younger.

Not a Ginn hater but I said last year I thought we didn't need Ginn back with Brown.  Fortunately for us we didn't have to choose because KB went down.  Look at it this way.  Ginn has peaked, Brown is only going to get better. 

Love the idea that we don't have 5 locks and 8 wannabes.  We have some serious competition and over the next couple of months the cream is going to rise to the top.   I will be happy with whoever they choose because honestly I don't think we lose with any combination.

Who would have thought by 2016 teams would be watching our roster to see who we are going to cut at the WR spot.

he was serving talib an ass whupping before he got injured.  among other much-bitched-about factors that was one of the differences in the game i think.

This is a good fix for my FB addiction as time slowly crawls toward training camp. Love the pics.

Hi, my name is Imminent Rogaine and I am a footballaholic; I watched a replay of week ten redzone on NFLN this weekend and have successfully completed 3 fantasy football mockdrafts as of may 25th.

      The Franchise guy Panthers 2025 deep dive overview

      By Carolina Cajun · Posted

      Biiiiiig eyeroll on this.  First, Look at historical stats of the most recent historical great DBs.  I plucked 3, Revis, Sherman, and Norman (cuzz he was our guy).  Combined post age 30, there are TWO pro bowls between those 3 and wanna get this...ZERO seasons with 16 games started.  ALL missed time.  It is RARE that Corners survive that long in the NFL and its about time we started recognizing this fact.  Jaycee is a good bet because it hasnt been anything seriously devastating injury wise, and with his sample size he could and should be an incredible piece for the panthers through age 30. Jaire kinda flops on the other side, hes 28...so hes under 30, but he wants his payday before it comes up, hes also been injury prone lately.  Bulk of the contract will be on opposite side of 30.  Will both of these guys help us be better in 2026?  SURE!  No doubt, but the question is, will these guys help us past 2026...not sure. The investment isnt worth the risk, nor would the ROI be anywhere close to worth it.  Neither guy is moving us from a 6-8 win team to a 8-10 team, period. My point is we're in this state a 6-8 win team IMO and he projects us as  a 4-6 win team.  EVEN if we think Jaire or Ramsey will make us a 6-8 win team, it in NO WAY is worth the money or capital to move that much just to suck kinda less.

      I assumed he was retiring but apparently he plans on playing multiple more seasons.  Florida is gonna have trouble holding onto everyone.  Happens to all teams that have that much success.
