Panthers acquired WR Laviska Shenault from the Jaguars.

We're still waiting to see what the Jags got back from the Panthers, though it won't be much. After a promising rookie season, Shenault's numbers were slashed across the board on a per-game basis. Despite a number of injuries hitting the Jaguars' receiving room, Shenault closed the year competing with Laquon Treadwell and Tavon Austin for snaps. A change of scenery will be good for the third-year receiver, though a secondary role on an offense led by Baker Mayfield isn't likely to turn him into a fantasy-viable option. The move does serve to keep the light on for Shenault in dynasty leagues. Once up to speed in Carolina's offense, Shenault should slot in as the Panthers' third receiver.

Haven't seen him play but his numbers aren't God awful. For a late round pick I guess it's worth a shot.

I mean he had 60 something catches and over 600 yards. He can’t be that terrible. He didn’t score last year but had 5 his rookie year. The Jags were a poo show last year so I’ll give him a pass for that. Excited to see what he’s got. I doubt we gave up much of anything to get him, so why not?

Think we will see him bring a physical edge to the offense. Can see him being used near the line of scrimmage blocking and running some hybrid WR/RB looks for us. This move is not an indictment on Terrace Marshall. More worried if I’m Chuba or a fringe TE. He’s probably pretty solid on special teams as well. Would be surprised if we gave up more than a 5th or 6th future pick.

We need hands out of the backfield/gadget as insurance for CMC. Chubs ain’t it. 

I hope thats what this is and that would be ideal.

Edit: 


that 0:35 run oh yeahhh

      Top 10 worst qb rooms from CBS sports. Panthers number 9

      Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out.

      I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
