Byrd waived

My opinion is once the roster crunch passes, he'll be back on the Panthers PS.

If any team in the NFL up to this point had wanted to sign him to their active, he'd have been poached off of our PS by now.

If he doesn't pass waivers I'd feel like this team is bleeding talent.

If they poach him off our PS, they have to put him on the active roster. Not sure many teams like him that much. He should be back. If they want him back that is.

He gone.

 

Even a GM who don't know the guy will look at college tape and see he is a 1% with the footwork and great route runner.

 

What the fug Carolina Front office.

They need some reasonable youth in there.. not some buzzed cut Wofford trust fund kid but young men that know explosive playmakers when a team needs one.

Yeah lets keep all the replaceable guys.

 Byrd showed some good stuff on kick returns in preseason was hopeful he'd get a chance.

 I'm sticking with what I said years ago.  RR is an awful evaluator of talent. Actually godawful.  As evidence by Tolbert,bersin and teddy being kept around to name just a few. 

I agree with this 100%, well said

Constant injury after injury combined with lack if production when you're not injured is a failure.

Agree to disagree I guess. Gettis was a 6th rounder speed guy. That speed made him a bright spot, outperforming his draft position and showing more progress than the much earlier drafted Lafell. 

Next camp he blew an ACL. Some people bounce back, some don't. Gettis just couldn't get back what set him apart: elite speed.

There is a difference between "failing" situations and "unfortunate" ones. His was the later.

    • It appears that he sees things differently than the QB and OC, so Cam's advice is spot on. It isn't about number of targets, it's about quality of targets. Trust and being on the same page. BY doesn't know how to anticipate what XL is doing. And XL doesn't like where BY is placing passes. One on one film study would go a long way. More for BY than XL though. He has to adjust to XL. I really don't think XL can adjust on the fly. 
    • If the team shows improvement, then he shouldn't be in danger of losing his job - even if the record doesn't reflect. This was a very young team (with a lot of new vet starters) that overperformed last season. Somebody's doing something right. Consistency is key with so much youth. And we're potentially looking at new starters at ILB and FS. Those are positions that take time to fully understand the defense. ILB calls the front 7. Safety calls the back 4. Injuries at WR and IOL killed the offense last season. Depth needs to be upgraded. Same with Edge. I think they would have won more games if Pat Jones doesn't go down early. Be smart with the roster and draft. Trade players for assets when it's time to pay them more than they're worth - yes, that includes BY if he doesn't make a pretty big jump. That's one of the many reasons Tillis is as important as anyone to the future of this team.
    • He had heart surgery a while back he looks Fraile I hope he is okay
