One problem I see is that he's a body catcher. He doesn't attack the ball and that could lead to some frustrating Ted Ginn like moments. If we don't see Shula evolve this system into something more, we aren't going to see any improvements with these players we've drafted. 

Well that's the whole goddam point isn't it?

Instead of running it on 1st and 2nd down and throwing long on 3rd?

They'll be here for the next OC....

You don't skip drafting offense just because your OC is one of the worst ever.

We've had Ted Ginn. However, with Funchess's shiftiness and Kelvins ability to catch everything, having a speed guy who can cut on a dime can't hurt. I just don't think he's a second round receiver. 

CBS had him going in the 2nd and ranked him as the 4th best WR in the draft. He looks like a better (hopefully) Philly Brown.

The Samuels pick..... The Panthers are finally admitting that big slow receivers are not making it happen.

Pretty much. Maybe they read that article about exactly how much separation our receivers not named Ted Ginn were getting last year and how Cam had to throw in insanely tight windows to make poo happen

    • That's pretty cool.  I don't care about the garbage versus not-garbage time non-sense.  You play what you have to play, and everyone has garbage time one way or another. After all, if you don't win before the game starts, then are you really a winner?  Isn't it all garbage time anyway?  (Sarcasm with a capital S)
    • Not cherry picking when I was simply addressing the point of too many ints and I see no reason why Bryces should be "drastically" higher especially given the fact that Newton had Steve Smith, Greg Olsen and Brad Lafell to throw to while Bryce had Theileln, Mingo, and Johnson. If anything, Bryce should have been worse but since you accuse me of cherry picking, I'll add this: Newton completed 57.7 % of his passes with the Pro Bowl players; Young completed 60.9% even with inferior talent to throw to.
