Addition by subtraction

[NAS]

On paper this looks like a bad move. But I will never forget how frustrating KB was with inconsistent effort and could easily disappear for an entire game. Not to mention that he was soft, and did fug all in run blocking.  For a big guy he didn't know how to use his body and only ran two routes. I am glad we're trying to give others a chance, especially Funchess who works hard and Shepherd who can be serviceable. I am also excited to see Samuel get more targets.  It may not work but you can't tell me this offense was clicking or that you were willing to sign KB to a second contract.  My only wish is that we would have gotten more in return. 

It is so funny to hear the national media pundits and other fan bases act like KB is some star receiver. They have clearly only seen the highlights and don't realize just how limited he really was on the field.

Mccaffery to wide receiver confirmed?

What happens if Funchess is injured? The Panthers haven't added a capable receiver to the roster.

[ItsPantone278]

But in all seriousness get ready for heavy doses of Curtis Samuel.  I believe in him.  I hope he's up for it.

Lol at “soft” and “doesn’t know how to use his body” then says he’s glad we’re given Funchess a chance who “works hard”. 

Cant make this stuff up.

Did you see Funchess in some of those gif’s Jeremy posted from Chicago?

Oh and FYI Funchess has more targets than KB this year. He’s had plenty of chances

This would be true if we had fired Shula. But we didn't, so it's subtraction by subtraction.

If by addition you mean the additional years of Star and Norwell we get by making this trade then I'm onboard with you. Kelvin had a salary of $8.5 mil next with on his 5th year option.

LOL most of you wanted KB gone when he gained weight and now you think he was all pro? GTFO.

This is the only silver lining I can find...  But with this front office, I can see us not resigning Star and Norwell for god knows what reason

Its funny how everytime a player leaves they suck all of a sudden. He was our best receiver. He used his body to snag a clutch td 2 days ago. Its a dumb trade and we're not better now.

[Cpt slay a ho]

I'm not going to panic, going to sit back and see how this pans out. I'm eager to see how the pick with be used

What he said... I think KB was crippling this offense more than helping.

[csx]

I don't think people watch games to settings like not using his body. That's his strength.

KB was playing smaller than he was. If he used his body or ran routes better he would be unguarded. I think it's fair to criticize the move without bringing in someone else, but to act like KB was world class is ludicrous.
