Panther Inception

I think our WR corps is a little better now than when we lost Ginn. Curtis is simply a luxury we can't afford. He's a WR3 and will lose targets with the return of CMC. Loved watching him, but we need to let someone else pay him to be a WR2 and make good use of the comp pick.

Out WR corps is infinitely better now than when we had Ginn. But I still would rather keep Curtis, especially if he can be signed at $10mil a year or less

It may be more likely than most think.  There are a TON of excellent WR free agents this year, and the salary cap is going to be an issue for almost every free agent.  He may find his market more like 8 or 9 million a year, and we could probably afford that depending on our quarterback situation.

I agree, but remember what happened once Ginn left? I hope we don’t see a repeat.

One thing Curtis had that Ginn lacked were these things called hands.  It was frustrating that the guy could run past DBs to get open, have the ball hit him right where his hands would be (if he had them), and bounce away and fall harmlessly to the ground.

I liked Ginn, and it was not like defenses could just let him run free because he would catch one often enough to make it worthwhile to have somebody run with him, but I held my breath every time a pass headed his way.

    • No, you're right. It doesn't mean you can't call out his flaws and poor play. But it also doesn't mean you can't admit when he plays well and shows improvement. Not you personally, just in general I mean.
    • I will say, I do think there's a version of Bryce that could be really successful as a high-volume passer in a spread-based offense built around quick throws and timing-based intermediate throws with deeper throws schemed up around them. I actually think the power run based offense we're running is a poor fit for Bryce as it requires him to play under center far more often. It's a very traditional offensive approach whereas I think a scheme that spreads defenses out and lets Bryce distribute the ball quickly with anticipation and accuracy is the sweet spot for him. The key, of course, is to find a way to run the ball efficiently out of those formations. Our personnel right now (backs and OL) aren't good fits for that style of offense and I'm not sure it's a scheme Dave Canales favors very much either.
    • I root for him, and I hope for the best, as does essentially everyone. But that doesn’t mean you can’t call out flaws and bad plays. And that’s what a lot of people get wrong.  I hope I’m wrong and that he continues to improve a lot, I just doubt it. But I’ve been wrong before
