Nice article.

The list of receivers that have excelled under Turner is impressive. 

Quote

The Vikings found Adam Thielen and Stefon Diggs with Turner on the staff in Minnesota. 

This statement gives me hope that Turner knows how to find gems and players that fit his offense.  For whatever reason we seemed to be cursed when it comes to drafting WRs.   KB and Funchess aren't bad but they aren't great either.  Hurney sucks at it.  I won't throw too many names because some of you might have seizures but Colbert and Jarrett are a couple.

Note to Hurney:  Let Turner pick the receivers.

don't turn your back on funchess.. I think he will have a huge season under turner along with samuel. They are identical to theilen and diggs.

Funchess isn't KB slow.  He may not be the fastest receiver we have but with the right partner on the other side Funchess can be very effective.  Add in CMC out of the backfield and Samuel in the Slot.  

To me, Turner has weapons already on this Roster and only needs to add one or two and it's light out.

Not only does Jarrett come to mind, but so does the fact that we immediately cut Keyshawn (against his will) because we didn't need him anymore with Jarrett.

I think I just threw up in my mouth..... Thanks for reminding me....lol.

What a stupid move.  About the only thing Jarrett and Keyshawn had in common was they came from USC.

It's really good to have some perspective around here because we have a bunch of rapid fire topic starters who truly have no clue what the NFL is all about.

LOL so Funchess is supposed to be Theilen? 

And I wouldnt say Samuel is anyone until he can actually prove he can stay on the damn field for a season

If they draft a rb like Chubb the will they relegate cmc to strictly a 3rd down back with 5 or 6 touches a game? Cmc says he wants to be an every down back I can’t see it if they get a number one back

I dont think so...you move him around...that was the whole point  of drafting him...

It won't really who the OC is if we don't get more weapons on offense. This is less about Cam Newton and more about better play calling period. It is completely unacceptable to go as many games as we did and have to burn a timeout to get the play in. Olsen, Funch, and McCaffery have a role in this offense but we need more period.

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
