Kelvin Benjamin was the only offensive player defenses had to scheme around

Who else demands bracketed coverage? Who else sniffs a thousand yards and 10TDs a year?

Benjamin was popular on the team. Early reports seem to indicate this did not go over well.

Did he have an attitude problem? Good coaching would've fixed it. Trading a player is an easy out. No third rounder will do for us what Benjamin did.

This is a lance through the heart of the 2017 Carolina Panthers, and possibly Cam's career with us.

Kelvin hasn't been getting bracketed in ages. Look at last game, the Bucs stuck a midget on him all alone.

And while Cam and Kelvin may have been buddies, Cam didn't seem to get through to Kelvin to take his craft seriously. How many times has he shown up overweight?

If this move frees Samuel to see the field more and let Funchess get more consistent targets than it may be a blessing in disguise.

Maybe they thought having both Funchess and KB out there at the same time was redundant? I dont know man i cant make any sense of this move, KB was well liked in the locker room and was Cams go to target in the redzone. Our offense struggles enough as it is so trading away our best WR is foolish when our WR depth is poo.

LOL if he was traded because of some garbage emotional semantics then I will sincerely want this team to just go away because it will be the complete embodiment of what Richardson brought Hurney in to do noe manifestating on the playing field itself

Greg Olsen is the #1 WR and demands double coverage

KB basically got shut down by a midget against the Bucs.

Even if I were on the fence about KB as a player, this trade and the timing is just plain awful if we get no immediate starter in return.

He still had the winning touchdown. you cant say we are better without him. DOnt mention 2015, totally different scenario. MVP cam, olsen, and actual run game.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By *FreeFua* · Posted

      I meant write off in the entire class being absolute garbage and that being on Dan  FA was pretty solid but Dan and Brandt handing out one big terrible contract to Turk Wharton. Milton was their top target and the pivot from Milton to Turk while paying Turk what they did was insane.  Id LOVE to know had we not paid Turk what type of contract he would’ve received. 3/30 mayyyybe? This is someone Brandt obviously vouched for.  I’ve watched a few of Tilis’ interviews now. One with Jourdan and one with Yates. He’s a big Moneyball fan. Giving Turk the deal they gave him is the complete opposite of the whole Moneyball idea. They paid a dude who they saw some potential in money that you’d pay someone that has actually made an impact  The worst part is that he’s 100% here next year too. That contract keeps him here until 2027 for sure

      Are you kidding? They just now figured out they could use someone else for a qb sneak.

      The biggest problem is that his upward trend is still well below NFL average. At some point there's just too much evidence to ignore. I've been there for awhile now. Honestly, it only took a handful of games for me to realize that he just had too many physical limitations to overcome to ever be a legitimate starter. I get that the organization couldn't afford to pull the plug that quick after that investment but there's absolutely no way we should've gone into year three without legitimate competition on the roster. We always a year behind kn this Bryce thing. This year should've been the legit competition year and this offseason should've been the moving on point. Hopefully we'll play catch up but I expect the trend to cj tinge and next year will be the vet competition year.
