Really? Don't see anyone but you claiming he drops everything. In fact here's one from a couple of hours ago- "Rookie WR Keyarris Garrett has been more active last few practices. Just made deep catch down sideline against Lou Young."

I said in my own post above that he'll have to do better than he has to have a chance at the PS, but saying he does nothing but drop balls is an exaggeration, to say the least.

Well of course it's an exaggeration . . . if you are talking about backyard touch.  But the NFL has a higher standard; so, RELATIVELY speaking, i.e., compared to other NFL receivers, he does nothing but drop balls.  The few catches he does have doesn't make up for his drops.  Citing one instance of him catching the ball belies the larger point I'm trying to make, and really is an argument in semantics.

No, what it really is, is an inaccurate statement. Your so called qualifiers- backyard touch, higher standard, relatively speaking- all BS. If you can come up with all that to support a lazy, inaccurate 7 word post, then you can also come up with a better, more accurate post in the first place.

Heh someone pissed in caatfan's corn flakes this morning.

1. The panthers offense will dominate this season.

2. Keyarris Garrett will be cut.

move along

And I didn't say otherwise on either point. I took exception to a statement that said we'd be the highest scoring offense in the NFL six weeks in, and that all that Garrett does is drop balls. Neither statement was true. The 1st may turn out to be, the 2nd just isn't.

IDK how to respond to this.  You say it's BS; I say it's an appropriate distinction, and you're being salty about it.  Time to move your day along, my friend.

    • Yep. I was hoping for and calling for a day three guy. But I didn’t research the position to say if we should or should‘t have jumped at a particular guy at a particular spot.    And everything I read said it was a poor draft for RBs depth wise. I guess when Seattle takes a backup RB in the 1st, that kind of backs that up.    I definitely think we should keep 4 running backs and if King can play well enough then keep him too.    I believe I heard Canales say we are a running team (talking about drafting a WR he will be needing to block as well as catch). Well if we are gonna be a running team by identity we don’t need to stock the WR room to overflowing. If one room has to sacrifice, it should not be the RB room given our circumstances. 
    • If there's a pattern I'm definitely picking up from Dan and company is a philosophy of making trades where we try not to sacrifice the number of draft picks we have by day's end. In other words, we're not giving up three picks for one, or giving up a future pick to make a pick today. And even if we give up something at the start, we make trades later to make up for that initial loss. Here's how it stacked up for 2026: How we started: 19, 51, 83, 119, 158, 159, 200 How we ended: 19, 49, 83, 129, 144, 151, 227 (no future picks sacrificed) Ultimately, we moved up two spots in the second to ensure we got someone we coveted, gave up a few spots for our fourth round pick, but then had better picks in the 5th (and got really good value out of them), and had a worse 7th rounder which isn't that big of a loss anyways.  At this point, we can question who they draft, but they're pretty good maneuvering across the draft board.
    • I just saw the funniest thing...or very disappointing, depending how you handle misery. A guy on YouTube did a 2027 'way too early' mock draft.  If I told you the simulator has the Panthers selecting in the top 10 , what would you say?  If I told you it was pick #8 and only two QBs were taken in the top 7, what would you say?  If I told you this dude had us taking a defensive player, what would you say?
