Here's the thing about Bersin that bothers me. We're told that he totally understands the offense, runs good routes, and has good hands. The team refuses to totally cut bait with him despite cutting him several times.

Yet, when he is on the roster he hardly sees the field. I've always wondered if he could possibly end up being a decent receiver if he had more opportunity to play.

from what i remember this dude was like Cole Beasley but 6'3'' and caught almost everything Cam threw at him in 2014, 2015 . Was ass at punt/kick returning of course , but otherwise I just remember him running crisp precise routes and good hands. IDK why the coaches never gave him much playing time, perhaps because his raw speed and athletic ability isn't as good as the other WR even though his knowledge/route running/hands seem to be good.

You have to ask that with this staff?  The same staff that kept trotting out two big slow receivers nearly every series and couldn't figure out why they weren't beating the guys deep?  The same staff that couldn't just change personnel because it would hurt feelings and trade value later so they just kept doing what they do until someone decided to help them out?  The same staff that values feelings over winning? Sorry, certain players feelings, not all.

My guess is he doesn't play because he doesn't get his feelings hurt if he is benched, so he's in no danger of playing.

    • I think you mean relevant but they have been fine, the problem is the lack of in game adjustments.  He has also been just decent at recruiting.  Duke having tons of success hurts and just fine isn’t good enough at UNC.  
    • I don't see it as drafting a premium player to sit and wait if Walker gets hurt. We need a legitimate swing T. Unless you have a Sewell or Slater type tackle that is pretty much a sure thing, these guys can need some time to develop year 1 just like a QB ideally should. They all haven't played the elite 5 star talent on the edge. If we think another franchise tackle has dropped to us at 19, you have to pull the trigger. The position is just too damn hard to find. If it's just a "we need a tackle and this guy has a T on the board", yeah, move on, take one in the later rounds. But if that guy is there, let him back up and learn a year, then slide him into LT on year 2 of his rookie deal.  I don't see us being able to offer Walker a multi year contract after a prove it year, pay Moton his final almost fully guaranteed year, Hunt, Lewis a center and do a 50-60m extension for Bryce. The 3 most important positions on the field are QB, blindside tackle (usually LT), and edge rusher. Those are the premium positions that cost the most and are hardest to come by. If a starting caliber talent is there at 19 you have to pull the trigger.  I understand the need for a DT and S. I've been on the C and FS train for years. If we weren't staring at a potential Bryce extension, it'd make the decision a lot easier I think. It's just with all these huge contracts I don't see how we can hedge our bets on being able or even wanting to re-sign Walker, especially if he has a bad year. Icky and BC's injuries really hurt our long term plans.  If no blue chip talent at those 3 key positions are available at 19, by all means pass and draft another position. But I think it's pretty safe to say we don't have a guaranteed lock at any of them right now beyond Phillips, and they have to be somewhat of a priority. 
    • Not completely accurate. I'm sure Roy is lobbying for him and Larry Brown has spoke put in support too. But Hansbrough has made comments pretty critical and hinting at a need for change. Joel Berry has gone a step further and said the standard has not been met. Scott Williams who was a teammate of Hubert's at Carolina has gone all the way and said it's time for a change at head coach.
