Carolina Panthers: Trading Cornerback Daryl Worley for Wideout Torrey Smith

https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2788909-every-nfl-teams-biggest-offseason-regret#slide5

General manager Marty Hurney addressed the appropriate position via trade, but he swapped a starting cover defender for a pass-catcher who doesn't have reliable hands to compensate for quarterback Cam Newton's periodic inaccuracies.

Newton has completed 60 percent or better of his passes in only two out of seven seasons. In the same time span, Torrey Smith's catch rate dipped below 50 percent in three out of seven terms. Expect to see a lot of passes hit the ground when the two attempt to connect downfield.

Of course, Smith brings Super Bowl experience to the locker room as a two-time champion, but the Panthers need production at the position more than a decorated resume.

Unless DJ Moore extends an impressive offseason into a spectacular regular-season showing, Carolina's wide receiver corps will rank near the bottom of the league in terms of production in 2018. Jarius Wright hasn't shown much through six seasons, and Curtis Samuel still needs to find his way in the pros.

 

Bwahhahahahahahahhahahahahahah OMG I can't stop laughing.  I've got to stop visiting BR, but they are so damn funny...ooohh can't see through the tears.....Bwhahahahah

I'm trying to figure out why you posted this exact same thread about the exact same article a month ago. Are you trying to get more clicks for your article?

 

Same poo, different article.

 That was riskiest move, this was biggest regret.  I know clickbait, but I'm dying here....its offseason.

To be fair they did get some of them right:

Gotcha - didn't notice the slight difference. Just remember the article being awful before and this one being just bad!

First of all, Panthers have a bigger regret that's far more obvious. Not addressing the LG position in a meaningful way. 

Second of all Hurney got something for absolutely nothing in Worley (and I didn't like the trade at the time) 

 

So not only is this writer missing our biggest regret, he got one completely wrong

      Pass Rush

      By TD alt · Posted

      I mean, I wouldn't classify him as elite, but he is good. Are you arguing that he's JAG? There aren't many elite pass rushers in the league today in my opinion. Carter and Thibodeuax don't seem to be. I mean, come on. Sometimes rushers get to the QB, sometimes they don't. Sometimes injuries slow a player down. I haven't seen Hutchinson enough, but he just got paid like an elite pass rushers, and we all know that Parsons is. Who else is really elite? Crosby and Watt can rain terror, at times.  Hendrickson is good, but a Johnny-come-lately. Other guys seem to be on the same level as Burns. The days of Pep or Reggie White have been gone.

      Panthers Sign QB White to roster; Christensen on IR

      With Canales I'm not nearly as concerned about his mismanagement of the RB situation (which you could argue is being overblown to a degree yes) as I am with how woefully inept he is at preparing coaching and managing his team on gamedays against opponents and their coaching staffs with winning records. The team has been blown off the field too many times under his watch now. But I will concede that even if we fire him we will just end up with another figurehead of sorts. It's plainly obvious or at least it should be that our ownership is still meddling and pulling strings.

      QB options for the 2026 season

      It's definitely not but what he and Darnold and now Jones are all doing does show that if you have a guy who checks a lot of the prerequisite boxes putting them in the right situation can make all the difference. The problem for the folks wanting to apply this logic to Bryce is that little "checks a lot of the prerequisite boxes" issue.
