Here is a list of the 2010 Free Agent WR's (ages are as of Sept. 1st, 2009)

Which one/ones,if any,do you think would be worth while for the Panthers to try to obtain?

Josh Reed (29), Bills, 8th season

Devone Bess (23), Dolphins, 2nd season

Jerheme Urban (28), Cardinals, 6th season

Steve Breaston (26), Cardinals, RFA, 3rd season

Mark Clayton (27), Ravens 5th season

Chris Henry (26), Bengals, 5th season

Miles Austin (25), Cowboys, 4th season

Sam Hurd (24), Cowboys, 4th season

Brandon Marshall (25), Broncos, 4th season

Kevin Walter (28) Texans, 7th season

Hank Basket (26), Colts 4th season

Troy Williamson (26), Jaguars, 5th season

Mark Bradley (27), Chiefs, 5th season

Bobby Wade (28), Chiefs 7th season

Chris Chambers (31), Chiefs, 9th season

Lance Moore (26), Saints, 4th season

Domenik Hixon (24), Giants, 4th season

Sinorice Moss (25), Giants, 4th season

Braylon Edwards (26), Jets, 5th season

Brad Smith (25), Jets, 4th season

Jason Avant (26), Eagles, 4th season

Vincent Jackson (26), Chargers, 5th season

Malcolm Floyd (27), Chargers, 4th season

Kassim Osgood (29), Chargers, 7th season

Isaac Bruce (36), 49ers, 16th season

Arnez Battle (29), 49ers, 7th season

Antonio Bryant (28), Buccaneers, 7th season

Maurice Stovall (24), Buccaneers, 4th season

Muhsin Muhammad ( ), Panthers, 14th season.

Remember when reading this list these players are only free agents in normal years, in an uncapped year, the number of seasons played increases from 4 to 5 years for Restricted Free Agency, and from 5 to 6 years for Unrestricted Free Agency. Also this reduced free agent market will probably drive market prices for free agents to double or triple their normal value in an uncapped year. I hope this might help you plan future moves for the Panthers.

We won't sign a single one of them.

Unless Fox is gone and a more offensive minded coach takes over. Although personally, I don't think we are hurting that much at Wide receiver. We could probably pick up a good one in the draft and be set.

What we really need to look at is free agent QB's. And that would be true even if Jake was playing well this year.

Devone Bess, he's not a household name, but he picks up around 50% of his yards after the catch, runs great routes, has excellent short area quickness but above all else has wonderful hands.

He was the 2nd leading receiver in Miami as a rookie last year and has been compared favorably to Wes Welker, if we want a move the chains receiver, he's our guy and really, he's the kind of guy we need, failing that, Jason Avant, he's currently fourth on the eagles depth chart, splitting time with Curtis as the third WR, but realistically, he's one of the most sure handed guys in the NFL.

Coughlin and Belichick have singled him out on seperate occasions singing his praise and their most reliable receiver.

    • Here's the thing. You compared him to Jake. Jake was signed to the practice squad out of college. Bryce was the number 1 overall. Their expectations are wildly different and so are their contracts. You can talk all you want about what a player is and where they are now and all this other mumbo jumbo, but Jake never had a 5th year option and we weren't talking about the possibility of a top 5 QB contract extension at the end of his 3rd year. What he was expected to be matters because we invested heavily at a cost of future capital, including a 2nd round pick this year, for him to be that guy. The cost to add Bryce took value from the team. To be worth it, he has to add that value back.  Actually, I don't prefer yards, TDs, or only INTs. All those stats by themselves are misleading which is why I said you have to use a lot of different stats. ADOT - Average depth of target.  Completion %. Pretty obvious until you factor in ADOT. 0-5 has a lot higher C% than 10-15%. Hang time. If a pass is in the air for 4.6 seconds vs 3.1 on a 40 yards throw, that gives a DB a lot of time to correct. Is it a loft or is it a laser.  EPA - Expected points added. A way of measuring QB efficiency on every play.  CPOE - ranking pass completions based on several factors, not just the throw.  There's obviously more, but those are the more common.  Typical stats don't show everything. You need to look all over. Looking at a stat line is lazy. That's why I said, you need to analyze everything. Once you start looking at the numbers you start looking at the player. That's why you follow numbers. They lead you places. You look at what happening when the numbers show you patterns. That's where you start finding the problems that yards, TDs and Ints won't show you.     
    • It's not relevant who wins or loses. It's about actually attempting to get better at the position.
    • Thank you. I don't understand how the Bryce stans don't see this. I've never seen a player get more hyped for doing so little. Honestly it's driving me a little insane.
