I like Robbie. I hope he has a bounce back season, and if he does, I’ve got this thread saved and bookmarked. If he doesn’t, I welcome all the “I told you so’s”.

He has had one bad year. He’s not trash. He’s definitely not the worst player on the team

I am starting to question how much he wants to be a good player versus just being a guy that cashes a check. Seems like mostly the latter. 

Not rare but not a guy I would have invested the money that we did in him.

I mean....do you blame us? How many times do has that happened to us versus other teams? We have ample cases of paying the wrong players these contracts. 

It's a Panthers tradition.

Historically most players that I can think of that have a terrible year the season after getting a big pay day continue to have bad years.  That happens a lot more often than it being an outlier.

Show me a list of these players, please. You could be right, but I want to see.

I think most people realize he had his worst year last year.  I think it would be ok if it was just that.  He sucked last year, Sam has always sucked.   They both arent liked here.  The big thing with Robbie is he comes off as soft, dramatic, and like he really doesnt want to be here or put in the work.  Hes just always calling out demands like hes the face of the franchise and he hasnt earned that.  Hes constantly pointing fingers or talking publically about how he doesnt want Mayfield etc.

Robbie had a bad year. If he has a year like last, then I’ll be fully on board with calling him out. 
 

I just don’t like this whole “player cashed out, and got lazy” because it’s traditionally only levied on a certain type of player.

He comes off as soft? The man is 150 lbs playing receiver in a man’s league. If he was soft, he wouldn’t be out there. 
 

Speaking of Mayfield, isn’t he known as publicly talking about others as well?

We have had several.    I would say Trai Turner is an example.  Albert Haynesworth was a huge one.  There are lots but I will have to think about some specifics this afternoon.

Sure.  I'm campaigning for Mayfield.   I dont care that Robbie has that opinion of Mayfield.  I just dont think he is a good enough player (especially last year) to put the front office and locker room in an awkward position by openly campaigning against or for things like that so publicly.

Robbie has shown plenty of times that he actually gives a damn. Even amid his drops. What you're saying doesn't equal up.

If he just stayed off social media it wouldn't be as bad. If I were an owner I'd ban my players from using it. I know it's 2022 and young folk be like, oMG yOu CaN'T taKe My SociAl MedIas, but no one really needs it. Just go back to simpler times, when you rarely knew how dumb your players were.

      I have more faith in XL improving than I do in Tmac being a true number 1 recuever

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies

      You joke, but hasn't basically the whole team been in Charlotte this past week together? I'm not one to see the random dumb stuff players put out on social media in the offseason and think it means that's ALL they've been doing and not working on their game.  But it's a little strange that all this is coming out at the same time we're seeing tons of stuff with the team in Charlotte together, even if it's just working out and not even official team OTA's or anything. So he gets a pass from me saying anything now, but if he doesn't show clear improvement this season, it then opens him up to some retroactive criticism for some things.
