But Steve Smith wasn't a slot WR, he was a dominant outside WR. Antonio Brown is about the only other recent guy I can think of who is roughly Smitty's size who dominates the game as an outside WR.

To be fair, Santana Moss was pretty good. Poor mans Steve Smith but for his size, he was a beast.

Samuel already has a smaller frame for an NFL player considering the amount of hits he will be exposed to over an entire career. At some point if these health concerns keep piling up I fear he may have to consider if football is really worth it. It would be a damn shame. But I'd rather see him breathing than a shell of himself.

5’11” 200 lbs. is not small for a receiver lol. He’s got 10+ pounds on most receivers around his height.

I'm still confused how unexpected heart surgery is considered a "small procedure". Maybe it somehow is, but that sounds scary as hell to me, especially if you're an NFL player.

Catheter. They go up through the femoral artery. It’s literal magic. 

But he likely had a stint put in. In the grand scheme of medicine it’s a small procedure. Hell they don’t even put you under for it. 

in the grand scheme of football that’s it for him.

You're speaking as if he isn't coming off a major injury already on top of other nagging injuries. He's only in year 2.

Poster makes outlandish claim. Outlandish claim is swiftly refuted. Same poster responds with something completely irrelevant.

Also don't understand what his frame has to do with an ankle injury anyways. That injury will happen to anyone regardless of size.

      Off Season Thread

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
