Play O the Day - Devin Funchess

call me crazy but I see Funchess as more of an AJ Green type receiver than Kelvin.

"While Kelvin is a prototype possession receiver that uses his body well to gain the upper hand, Devin is much more fluid and athletic in his routes and after the catch. Benjamin and Funchess compliment one another nicely, giving offensive coordinator Mike Shula a variety of skill sets to identify mismatches."  http://www.carolinahuddle.com/2016/08/04/carolina-panthers-devin-funchess/

I'll take AJ Green numbers for Funchess any day. I'm sure he would too. 6000+ yds. in his 1st 5 seasons and he missed 3 games in '14.

Give him the ball on crossing routes and let him run. This offense needs YAC and Funchess is the guy.

I actually think that is the missing link of the O....Olsen, KB and Funches are all big body possession guys.

Why I still endorse thanking Ted Jr and focusing on improving our speed WR position

Funny you say that because that was the exact thought that came to my mind. That video in Jeremy's post is very green-esque

long-lanky and watches the ball to his hands.

Even after our performance last year i really dont think the nfl knows whats about to hit them.

Seriously. How can any Panther fan not be excited about this team? I can easily see Cam's passing numbers go up this year. If anything goes down, it will be his rushing yardage and TD's, but that's only because he won't need to run as much.

    • All good solids points. I think after the RB and LB, is kicker the next spot among "Legacy" panther spot?? Kasay, gano, butkler, Eddie(best all-time %), Slye, Lloyd the touch back god, Mare, lols.....  Fitz...*right now* feels a combo of all the best panther ones. With the new rules, Fitz is either first or second in starting field position form KOs. He's a weapon and ten yards do matter. 
    • "Plays well" vs "near historic performance" are pretty different things. It's important to keep in mind the Cowboys passing defense is league worst and their run defense is nearly so, for sure. But one of those two players vastly outperformed what most other players have done versus the Cowboys and the other had fewer yards than typical (but still played very well imo, and did all we needed him to). Rico pretty much doubled up virtually every other single back that has played the Cowboys.  So yeah I get why people would be surprised that Rico is so far down the list of O players.
    • Trevin and Rozeboom remind me (obviously at a smaller scale) of when they had Beason as the mic and Luke beside him. Luke looked very average and was out of position a lot until he swapped to mic. REALLY hoping this is another case of that. Just on eye test alone that swap has been a night and day difference.
