These likely are the Panthers' 5 WRs: DJ Moore, Robbie Anderson, Shi Smith, Terrace Marshall Jr., Laviska Shenault and Rashard Higgins. Could mean the end for kick return specialist Andre Roberts. Shi Smith could return kicks.

Then proceeds to list 6 WRs after saying 5.  This dude, how does he still have a job.
 

I love TMJ’s potential but the guy has done nothing but ride the bike and be invisible during games since he’s been here.  The best ability is availability.

Robby should be the one being shopped. Yes, I think he is a very solid number 2; however, his cap hit is not going to work next season.... We are 35 million dollars over the cap and he is a top 5 cap hit.

This new guy was better than Robbie last year.  You nailed it but nobody is trading for Gumby

TMJ was the beneficiary to Burrows 2019 Campaign at LSU. Even then, he was miles behind Chase and Jefferson in terms of production. 

Believe it or not, TMJ was rated higher than JJ and chase coming out of HS. While of the field he looked it too, just the others got better faster and TMJ just got better...

I believe it. He also struggled with injuries in high school, which carried into college, which, well.. you know

An example for the reason I went with reliability over availability being the best of the -abilities.

Brenton Bersin was once available to field punts.

He's not been available more than anything.  TMJ can catch when he's out there. The problem is he's always hurt.

The team wants to win. I know you're not interested

Who doesn't? That does not guarantee sifting through the leftovers bin of bottom feeder franchises is going to help us achieve that goal though. I'll hope this guy can be a success for us but nobody is required to conform to your heavily home team tinted shades viewpoint.

Not with the absurd amount of money they gave him. I wonder if his comments on Baker prior to the trade have created issues in the locker room

TMJ had a fractured leg and broken ankle coming out of high school.  He just can’t stay healthy and at this point has to be tentative out there.  He is afraid of injuries now.  Anyone would be atp.  The sport is brutal

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
