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.

    • He’s also 21 years old. I don’t know why fiz is so eager to label him a bust
    • It’s wild to me that so many of you guys are threatened by the idea of an opposing team fan who is polite in 2025. He’s been posting here on and off for years, usually when our teams play each other which hasn’t been for a while. I’d maybe understand this treatment if it was a falcons or saints fan, but packers fans in general are one of the nicer fan bases as long as you aren’t another NFC north team (especially the bears).   
    • Some players excel on the big stage, while others freeze and succumb to the pressure. I’m not convinced Cam took a dive. I think he didn’t handle the stage very well. The pressure got to him and he folded. He wouldn’t be the first quarterback or player to struggle in a Super Bowl. Two HOF examples - John Elway and Jim Kelly. The 2002 MVP, Rich Gannon, threw 5 interceptions against the Bucs. Poor performances happen.  Unless of course you believe all these players threw the games they played in, but if that occurred, surely someone by now would have admitted taking a dive? 🤷‍♂️
