Carolina Panthers Have Hired Jerricho Cotchery As Assistant WR Coach

This is interesting considering that Proehl stepped down.  Maybe Cotchery has more of the coaching chops?  No one ever doubted Ricky's knowledge, but I wonder if he wasn't hard enough on Funchess and Benjamin?  Maybe too buddy-buddy for them to really be pushed?

Cotchery is also a very knowledgeable former player.  More brains in the room won't hurt.  Especially as the new WR coach coached college RBs (not sure how that makes sense as a transition?).  Or is it that the new coach will be the discipline and Cotchery will be the knowledge?  And there might be more plans for the WR coach in the future?

Or am I completely full of poo?  (Maybe?)

Lol. Yeah, okay.

Again, it must suck to have a negative outlook on every single move.

not a negative outlook in the least... I fully expect Ginn to return, especially considering Gettleman saying talks are occurring already.  Ginn knows going elsewhere isn't in his best interest, won't cost the team much and isn't a pressing need to get the deal done right now

that gives us KB, Funch, Byrd, Ginn and whatever happens with Brown... I think Gettleman is fine with that roster and doesn't foresee the need for any big signings, and I would agree with him if so

Which definitely explains why Cruz was brought in for a visit almost immediately?

We are going to add to the WR position this offseason.

That is actually just filling an empty coaching position.

    • Aho…come out and prove me wrong boy. 
    • I mean, I hear what y'all are saying, but Derrick could have been positive without being negative.  He essentially accused people of not seeing Bryce's improvement because of their desire to not be wrong. He could've kept it about Bryce and the team. For example, he could've said: "Bryce has made strides, and we believe in him. This coming season, his continued improvement will turn a lot of people into believers."  That would've been supportive of his teammate and sent a message to the doubters. That being said, his tact almost summoned and left the door ajar for more skepticism. That's my take anyway. Bryce has improved from the bottom to perhaps skirting the line between the bottom third and mid-third at best...after three seasons. We've all seen it. Yay! In my mind, Bryce has still got a long way to go and a short time to get there, but my expectations are top five--at least top 10--always! Yes, I am a fan, so there's that, but I don't believe it's unreasonable to expect excellence. Hopefully the Panthers FO has the same mindset (and that doesn't even necessarily have anything to do with what we gave up to acquire him). That is the lens I'm looking through. Derrick Brown has his homer glasses on. He just needs to be more diplomatic and thoughtful with his words in my opinion, but I get it that he's a good teammate.
    • I have no doubt the Canes will come out like gangbusters, huge bounce back from game one - my only concern is Freddie, if he lets in a couple of softies and Dobes stays hot we could be in trouble.
