Cam Newton is without a doubt a VERY talented QB and vital to this organization (Anyone living during the pre-Newton or Jake days of 2003-2008 can contest to)...but he needs "The Weapon". I seriously believe this guy has the "IT" factor. Steve Smith knows/understands the intangible skill sets required of a WR. We should all be pumped about this selection. Norv/Olson/DJ Moore/Fun-Fun/Samual/Bryd = Effective Offense. 

*Hope we address Safety or Second TE in Second round/Third Round #excited

The fact that we were able to choose the first WR off the board is awesome.  It also says that we got our highest graded receiver out of an entire draft class; "poor year" or not for the position, that's HUUUUGE.

Very comforting indeed to know we got our favorite WR in the draft.

Absolutely! I meant to add C.M..personally I’m excited about this offense. Adding some playmakers was a wise decision. I do hope we get a Safety and second TE though..I feel Moton will hold down (win) the Left Guard position. Hall coming back helps with the DE depth. 

 

As as far RB goes..I think we have a go at Bo Scarborough/Chris Warren on day 3

    • Would Morgan or Beason have been HOFers' if injuries hadn't derailed their careers?  I was not a close watcher of the game when Morgan was in his prime but I thought Beason had a few seasons at close to Lukes' level of play.
    • Franchise QBs feast when things are rolling and the tide that raises boats when things are going sideways.  Bryce isn't that. He's a complimentary player, that's it.  When the defense and STs are on point, he plays loose and it shows.  When we are in a dog fight and things haven't gone our way, he struggles.  It's that simple. He's not a horrible QB, but he's not top tier either.  So the question begs, is this worthy of a second contract?  The answer should be no.  It definitely is my answer. Bryce will never be a QB that can produce wins largely on his arm.  That's a FRANCHISE QB, any other QB is simply a placeholder at the starter's position until that guy can be found.   At some point the excuses of lack of weapons will be a straw man.  Heck, it's nearly there now.  I mean if he doesn't look even better than last year will we blame it on the TE position?  'Well if Bryce only had a player like Kelce, Kittle or Gronk on this team...'  Are we really going to do that?  
    • When I arrived at college, I was 18, not too much younger than some of these draft picks.  It was not a huge school, but there were guys on the team who were 21, 22, 23....playing ahead of me.  I was seventh on the depth chart.  Those guys have been through a few seasons, were stronger, more knowledgeable.  I was a better raw player than some of them, but those other factors matter.  As I grew stronger, more familiar with the playbook, and learned what it was like to play in college, I gradually improved and with that, I rose up the depth chart.  It took most of my freshman year for the light to come on.  Had the coach thrown me into the starting lineup day 1, I would have probably failed.    And that was college.  So I agree with you based on my experience on a much lower level.  Frankly, I think that is why so many kids drafted to fill huge gaps bust.  The teams are desperate.  Anyone who looks to fill vacancies in the starting lineup through the draft is desperate.  You draft depth to develop.  For this reason, I say, "Let Walker start for a while."  Maybe Brazzell can be our WR 4.  Throw Hunter into a rotation and ask him to do one or two things.  Freeling needs some strength and he needs to work on run blocking.
