Been waiting for the presser transcripts but here are a few tidbits worth noting in the meantime.

Panthers general manager Marty Hurney said Moore reminds him of Smith a bit, but he wasn’t ready to start comparing him to a possible Hall of Famer.

 

“He’s got that ability to break tackles and make yards after the catch,” Hurney said. “That (Smith comparison) is a pretty high bar to set, but there are a lot of things we like about him.”

...

Then during his pre-draft visit to Charlotte, Moore said the Panthers told him they were taking him in the first round.

After the Panthers stayed true to their word Thursday, Rivera received a text from Newton.

The eighth-year quarterback had a simple message for his coach following the addition of another pass-catcher: Thank you.

...

Also of note in the article, Rivera said he can play all three receiver positions and possibly returner.

That text from Newton says it all.

Sounds like a passive aggressive thank you. Rightfully so though

No. If it was taken that way Rivera wouldnt have been laughing and joking about it, choosing to share the message himself at the presser.

Lattimore sent the same text to Hurney

Giving Cam another weapon is priceless! It will hopefully pay dividends that we have yet to realize.
