Would Mike Williams be wasted in Carolina?

So let's say the Panthers draft Mike Williams. Would he improve the Panthers offense all that much?

If yiu believe the Panthers lack receiver talent, I suspect you do think he would improve things.

If you suspect the scheme and coaching are lacking, I suspect you don't think so.

Which side are you on?

Physically, he doesn't provide anything that we don't already have between Benji and Funchess. Honestly I don't even care what 40 time he runs in a couple months; when I watch Williams, I don't see the explosion vertically that is needed to be a top 10 guy.

Potentially he might provide more consistency, but you can't be sure of that with any rookie.

Our receivers are not the problem with this team. Scheme, along with consistent line play are the issue. Williams is a wasted pick unless Benji is moved for a tackle...and trades rarely happen like that.

Waste. This is cart before horse type of poo. Cam can't pass the ball to Williams if he has been driven so deeply into the ground that they need fuging radar to find his body. Fix the O-line. You know...so the franchise qb it took almost 2 decades to find doesn't die.

Would be one of the most disappointing moments in franchise history.  Sucking does have it's perks.  Netted Cam.  Netted Luke.  But this was a Super Bowl or bust season.  We recently took Benjamin and Funchess high.  There are better players at multiple positions of greater need.  This guy is not Julio Jones or AJ Green.  It would be a knife twister for me and beg the question of who or what our identity is as a franchise.  HELL no to a WR at 8.

KB should already be playing like Mike Williams. However, I do believe his injury set him back and it may take this offseason to be back on track. Also, I have not seen enough of the right type of plays to maximize his advantages. Where's the back shoulder throws? Where's the lobs to the corner where KB can outreach his defender for a TD? 

Basically, drafting Williams gives us yet another receiver that relies more on size when we need separation.

      I was assuming Blackshear was gone anyway. Or at least PS.

      I literally read this 15 minutes ago, but it sums up my feelings perfectly. FYI, the article was about 3 players on the bubble. The author's opinion seems to be Horn is a lock and Renfrow and Moore are fighting for that last spot. David Moore, WR The Panthers' wide receiver room is crowded. There aren't many available spots, at least from the outside looking in. That raises the stakes considerably for those further down the pecking order fighting for recognition. David Moore is among them. The former seventh-round selection is a trusted ally of Dave Canales from three separate NFL stops. He's a solid if not spectacular player, although he underwhelmed when tasked with significant responsibilities during the previous campaign. Moore is battling it out for the sixth wideout spot alongside Hunter Renfrow, Kobe Hudson, and Jacolby George. It could go either way, but Canales' faith and his ability to impact special teams might be enough to get a reprieve."

      Until LaMelo is traded, this is an unserious organization anyway. There's an insane lack of talent, and the talent all comes with baggage and injury concerns.  I assume the OP was about passing on Ace...but he's exactly the type of prospect doomed to bust here and compound on to the problems with all of his rumored sketchiness.
