It’s been 2 preseason games and a bunch of training camp at this point... whose your most underperforming player?

I’ll go with Torrey Smith. I haven’t heard a peap out of him from practice updates or during the preseason games. I think his skillset is already duplicated and would have 0 problem cutting him and keeping Byrd while only keeping 5 WR on the roster.

I wouldn’t put too much into that

olsen has been quiet as well just as a comparison.

Smith is our only true deep threat who fills Ginn's old shoes to just run straight down the field by the DBs... Neither Byrd or Samuel can fill that role right now for us. 

 

Honestly to me no one has been that underwhelming... Can't think of anyone. Maybe Searcy before his injury but I didn't expect a lot out of him anyways so don't think he counts. All the rookies and other FA additions have played as I expected them to. No returning player has stood out to me as underwhelming.

I will skip Kalil (too obvoius) and say Butler.  This is flat out his year or bust.

They haven't underwhelmed to me. Kalil is exactly as has been expected and Butler has flashed more this year so far than in years past...

If Byrd was spectacular from here on out, he'd get a spot, but it wouldn't be Smith's. They'd just keep 6 WRs. Smith is a lock and I doubt they view him as being in a position battle.

I guess I just bought into the Kalil is finally heathly talk to much.  Pulling bigtime for Vern but havent seen it quite yet, not consistently.

Funchess

Year 4, been with the team the longest out of the group, contract season, expected to be the #1 WR

 

But really hasnt put himself out ahead of really any of the WRs in camp.

All of Donte Jacksons highlights from camp have been on Funchess.

According to KBFans thread, Torrey's barely been targeted this pre season. 

Yea, just checked and he has only 1 target, which was a catch for 12 yards the last game.

      PFF Best Deep Ball Thrower Award

      I do think think anyone is actively rooting against him. Okay, maybe some. But Bryce seems like a really good dude. I don't see you anyone could view the person negatively. But this ain't about that. This is about whether or not we truly think we can compete for SBs with Bryce Young at QB. I don't. Especially if you give him a legit starting QB contract.

      Bryce had a good playoff game but Taylor Heinicke has had a good playoff game too.  He's improved but calling him the best deep ball thrower in the league is just laughable.

      You are overgeneralizing talking about every Panther WR that didn't make it. Calling the guy an idiot is lazy and assuming. And I said it wasn't worth bringing up real points because people like you would be lazy and generalize like a scorned woman. Thanks for not disappointing.  He and Coker came into the league the same year. Who was producing in the Seattle game when we passed for 54yds? That's not excuses, but facts. In the playoff game, he smoked a corner off the line of scrimmage just like the Atlanta game and Bryce didn't go to him. I don't consider it an excuse if the QB doesn't look your way or limits your opportunities. Like I said earlier, TMac and Coker are better at making chicken salad out of chicken shite. Don't act like you haven't seen the passes thrown that require extreme contortion or athleticism like jumping five feet in the air to catch. Also, they said in the video he could stand to get closer with Bryce. TMac and Coker have better relationships on and off the field with Bryce. That matters, anyone who has played sports knows that. I said he needs to hear Cam and that means strengthening the relationship with the QB your organization has now.
