Sure if its like a Taylor Decker..... hes preventing Sewell form playing LT. Maybe he could be had for a ANderson.

Panthers fans have been downplaying Robby since he was signed, and I always told Huddlers that he is better than given credit for on this forum. I think he proved that, despite playing with a QB who in no way played to Robby's strengths, at all. I seriously doubt that he'll be a 3rd or 4th option, and I also doubt that there's any validity to these whispers--more akin to voices in someone's head--unless we're getting someone of note in return, as it makes zero sense. If nothing else, next year he'll garner us a third round compensatory pick, and we'll be throwing that away by releasing him.

CMC and DJ Moore will be prioritized ahead of Robbie in the pass game.  They should be.  They are better overall threats.  That puts Robbie 3rd. 

CMC's injury aided Robbie and Samuel  Him not being in play was a factor in those two having the opportunity to post what they did.  I think it is fair to acknowledge that.  As well as Teddy's accuracy and being willing to take what was given....which also aided stats for some guys.  Which is why we had 3 WRs with 1000 total yards.....and yet our offense wasn't that good.

And this is definitely a good thing. When your third option is better than some teams' first and many teams' second, you're not doing too badly.

Plus you have an offense that spreads the ball around.

unless you are in the last year of a contract and looking to post big individual numbers.   Great scenario for the Panthers.  Not so great for Robbie (from new contract perspective).  Depends on whose perspective.

A legit, good, young LT? Absolutely. Hell yes.

I'm talking receivers. CMC is an RB, and he is not a better WR than Robby regardless of mental gymnastics.

last year CMC was healthy, he lead the team in receiving targets, receptions and posted a 1000+ receiving yards. 

If CMC was healthy last season, Samuel nor Robbie likely reach 1000 total yards.  CMC eats into all that.  

It's not mental gymnastics to say CMC will be primary target in the passing offense. Which will impact the production/opportunity of others.

A dynamic RB adds another dimension to an offense, and this has always been the case, but it doesn't minimize the effects of each part because the sum of the parts and the way that the OC maneuvers the equation and determines the answer plays a huge role in determining the outcome.

This is absolutely factually incorrect. There are only so many touches to go around in a game. CMC absolutely drops Robbie's touches. To suggest otherwise is to suggest Brady is a numbskull.

The ONLY way CMC will effectively impact this offense in such a way that will legitimately lead us to the realistic potential to compete for a championship is if the receivers are doing their jobs. If they aren't, then he'll get a lot of production because he is being leaned upon as a crutch and not efficiently used within the flow of the game, and that's if he doesn't get hurt again because of being run into the ground. We've seen this all before. Balance will be the key! Thankfully, from our acquisitions, it appears as though the powers that be seem to be of the same opinion.

I hope we put CMC on a pitch count, especially if we're not in contention.
