To be honest, I've always liked him.  He's shown up a handful of times throughout his career.  

Someone mentioned earlier--perfect measuring stick for Marshall and Shi.  They better outperform him or they'll be on the wrong trajectory. At the same time, could produce if he ends up making the team.  Solid backfill. He was also tighter off the field w/Baker than Landry or OBJ... 🥸

Catch rate of 60% - will fit in perfect here

DJ Moore's catch% last year was 57% with a drop rate of 6.1%.
Higgins catch % last year was 51% with a drop rate of 6.4%.
Higgins had ZERO drops on 54 targets in 2020 with a catch% of 71.2% so last year was not his ceiling and he CAN be very good.

Hopefully a cheap pick up.

A novel idea is to give Marshall, Zylstra, Smith, and Saunders more opportunities rather than guys like this. Higgins isn’t even a has been… he’s a never was.

My thought is you just drafted a guy in the second round, why are you getting a guy like this?

But, we may just end up cutting Higgins.

      The term you're looking for is "malinger(ed)", and he didn't.  I'm not sure why Panthers fans act like jaded ex girlfriends.  The dude is clearly injury prone as his time in San Fransico also proves. It's not like he got to San Fran and stopped having problems.

      My long and rambling post:   The guy is all heart, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he came back even better next year. He’s exactly the guy you lock up. The money won’t ever change the way he plays.  It was a big fumble, but what 1,000 yard back fumbles once in an entire season?  Pride. This team is FINALLY seeing guys who obviously take the game very seriously. Hunt, Chuba, Thielen, Brown, Horn (CB), Coker, Bryce (IMHO). Bye bye, Spider-Man. I don’t see these dudes being OK with teammates half-assing practice or in games. I can see Brown and Horn coming over to talk to somebody.  Good team? Ummm, maybe, but will still likely lose more close games than they win unless this last draft turns in to LOB part 2. That’s a stretch.  Pretty good/decent team. Yes. They finished the season as a pretty good team. I know I sound like a broken record harping back to it, but going in to ATL and putting a 40 burger on them en route to an OT win. A bad Panthers team would have had their brakes beaten off. We’ve seen it.  Rose colored glasses on and bonging a 40 of hopium: There are watershed moments that occur that change the course of franchises, both good and bad. If Fox doesn’t pull Rodney at halftime, the epic journey that was 2003 never happens. On the negative side, Cam taking that one hit from Watt was the end of any and all Panthers relevancy and we’ve been the biggest losers in all of pro sports as a result. Watershed moments. LOB draft. Vinny goes down and the goat is born.  Will the ATL game be the spark that this franchise has desperately needed? Could it be that they hit the mega million jackpot with Princley and Scourton as eat QBs for breakfast? Sure would be nice having 2 all-pro edge guys on the cheap for the next 4 years.  A lot of unknowns, but at least it actually feels  fun again.

      Ok LT and Petersen are a cut above everyone else to me cmc and Faulk are interchangeable on this list.  though Faulk was better career wise
