Both are pretty big pieces of news. If KB doesn't go, are we really going to roll with just Funchess/Shepard/Samuel active?

Am i the only one that would be somewhat okay with it if Benji had to rest a game? Not that he isnt stellar and making clutch catches, but Cam is completely missing Shepard play after play and the guy IS getting open. the Saints game stands out most to me. Shepard was open on key plays that would have made that game much more winnable and Cam completely ignored him in favor of dialing in on Funch and Benji. 

Please dont flame or poo on me. i know Benji is great and our offense may suffer some without him. But im also confident in Cam's ability to spread it around when a playmaker cant go (2015 with Benji). Just throwing something out there for discussion purposes

Yeah I get what you're saying, but you don't sit your #1 receiver just to try to get better chemistry with your 3rd or 4th receiver.  Cam will watch film and see when and where he misses Shepard... don't need to sit KB to do that.

Aside from pressers, where we hardly ever get much of anything, with a skeptical eye, watch social media, etc. for FACTS on exactly what Luke did today. The helmet itself isn't dispositive. Non contact position drills would point to stage four. Anything involving contact with other players or dummies (unfortunately, in a few cases those mean the same thing), means stage five, and that the team physician thinks he's good for full practice. However, he has to show no symptoms afterwards, and then still has to be cleared by the independent neurological consultant. As is, definitely a good sign.

Look....Im just messing with you but you went from getting on people's cases for commenting without being a doctor to doing exactly the same thing each and every time Luke's situation is mentioned.

He didn't have a Concussion, Schefter exposed this Coaching Staff for sure.  They probably put him in the Protocol to be EXTRA cautious.  

Exposed the coaching staff? I think being extra cautious with him was definitely the right decision

      At this point its Sadiq or bust... A

      By micnificent28 · Posted

      Personally I think he's a nightmare to cover I think linebackers generally aren't fast enough to keep up with him in coverage and cornerbacks don't have the strength to tackle him one-on-one in physically bring them down which would normally lead to a broken tackle or a nasty stiff arm or just bully ball play sure you could find a receiver with comparable speed like Cooper but he's faster than Cooper sure you can find a wide receiver that is the same size but he's probably More powerful than them and a better blocker.  The size speed athleticism package that he is in is completely unique it's easier to say I'd rather have just a big blocker because we've never seen this type of profile before I'm a risk taker I think you would be God blessed if this was there at 19 I think if you can get a guy that's a tight end who immediately becomes the fastest guy on your offense and at the same time that third wide receiver that can stretch and burn defenses over the top that's the perfect what the Panthers need type weapon.

      I think you're under selling Sadiq. They are two different players in terms of how they win. Loveland is 2 inches taller maybe 5-6 pounds heavier. Comparing his speed to sadiq.. well your comparing a 4.7 guy to a 4.3 guy I'm seeing a guy that can take a bubble screen from the tight end position and turn it into a house call. I'm not saying the guy is a certified home run pick but I don't think there's really a president's for a comparison for this kind of athlete. It's easy to say this doesn't look like Warren or Loveland because we haven't seen guys that fit this profile The closest you might be able to get is Vernon Davis.  He's not as sure far as those guys were but at 19 I think almost everybody is going to have some warts and he's a lottery ticket of could be top 10 in the draft player or could fail I am more of a risk taker I think he fits the athletic profile that could be a homerun, like I said he's almost 40 lb bigger than Cooper and like 4-5 in taller than Cooper so and he's faster. So whatever you think Cooper gives you I think he does that and more. If you want to go with one of the office alignment I can understand that as well but for value as a receiving threat I don't think there's a bigger value at number 19.
