Why I like the Hogan Signing

Remember how, for three years we complained about how our receivers could never get separation and Cam had some of the smallest windows to throw through? Well, Hogan ranked second in the league last year in separation (https://nextgenstats.nfl.com/stats/receiving/2018/all) Hogan is a reliable receiver with some big play potential and should make things easier for Cam. My question now is who is the odd man out? Or do we keep Samuel, Moore, Smith, Wright, and Hogan? I would cut smith and maybe bring in a late round pick, but that's just me. 

Oh, by the way, while Hogan was 2nd in separation last year, guess who was last.

Honestly, I'm not expecting much. 

Pats fans say he's a good 3/4 option in a passing attack but struggled mightily when asked to be their #2. 

I really don't foresee him getting a ton of looks his way this year. Players in line to see more targets than him are CMC, Greg, Moore, Samuel, and Wright. In my mind, he's 6th in line to see a target. 1 or 2 a game. Hopefully it was a relatively cheap deal and we can save some money by moving on from Smith.

We'll see.

Funny stat. Just got off the Pats board and all they were all saying was he couldn't get separation last year. Hope their all clueless. Few did say he and Brady just weren't on the same page. Superbowl LVII 6 catches 128 yrds. Tells me he is at least clutch.

      I really like the way this team is trending. Morgan and Canales rookie campaign saw them do some questionable picks but, they also did some really good things. Especially addressing the offensive line.  Young had such a disastrous rookie season where his confidence was nowhere to be seen.  You can attribute part of this to a terrible offensive line.  So, we focused on the O-line.   We then brought in several defensive free agents that were supposed to compliment Brown.  Once Brown went down those players could not hold the line.  2025 we focused on defense in Free Agency and brought in several good players.  We then added more talent in the draft.  I think we have competition in several areas where Vets are not guaranteed to be starters.  Our offensive line is pretty set with some good backups.  Our defensive line is going to be a war for who comes out to be the starters.  All in All, we are leaps and bounds much better than 2023 roster.  Canales made some rookie head coach mistakes but grew as the season progressed.  He got our QB, who was starting to look like a huge bust, playing with confidence and poise.  Now it appears Young is moving upwards.  Maybe he is a QB whisperer.  After Young started to play better our offense was fun to watch.  Morgan knows football and knows what he wants in his players.  It appears to me that not only are these players he's drafted really good and got great value for them, but they are also high motor, intense players. Our defense, in the past, was always the key to our success.  I think Morgan is building a great defense. I know it is too soon to tell but I believe we may have a tandem that will be around a long time.  It would be nice to see Morgan/Canales be in the same class as Lynch/Shanahan and Beane/McDermott.   I know many Huddlers will overreact, but I truly believe we have a tandem that will be around a long time. TIME WILL TELL. Go Panthers
