yea... id just rather chuba only touch the ball 1-2x per game and not run a single passing route.

Personally, I'd be fine if he never sees the field.  I would be jumping up and down for joy if we traded him away for something.

If Chuba's in we're telegraphing run.  If its a pass he can't block or catch, so he becomes a waste of space, in fact, they would intentionally leave him open so we all could watch him drop it.

giving up on 2nd round picks 1 year in is not a model way to run your franchise

Perhaps. Sometimes you cut your losses and move on as opposed to dragging things out. Who knows what they have up their sleeves.

just thought some of ya'll would like to hear about some of his flaws. I think used right it could be a great pickup. Interesting he doesn't play ST's at all tho.

EDIT: Despite the thumbnail the guy isn't a lunatic and is pretty informative 

another jags fan that just showed up in my Youtube (thanks to clicking your video🙃)

Well lets hope Shenault, Robby, Thomas and Chuba shake off whatever yips they have, like Johnson did.  I think there's hope for the first 3.  I'm not so sure with Chuba.

Robbie was 70% with Teddy, 48% with Darnold which both were more check down guys, Sam just panics and forces last minute bullets. He was around 55% with the Jets but that was mostly deep balls so expected. Chuba has had way too many opportunities to still look like someone we can replace with another teams roster cut

How anyone can say this guy wasnt worth a 6th/7th blows my mind.... The jags fuging blew it last year on how they used him. In 2020 they used him to his skillset.... take a look for yourself:

Yea, anyone who doesn’t like this trade either hasn’t watched your link, doesn’t know what we gave up for him, or is an idiot.

    • Let's be completely honest about this... Our WR room is AT and a bunch of question marks. Thielen is the only guy we know who knows the route tree completely, understands play calls and can regularly get open/beat close coverage when necessary. He's long in the tooth, isn't the speediest guy on the field but he plays like a pro, starting level wide receiver. Xavier, last season looked great at first, but man he kind of petered out down the stretch and would disappear in a number of games. He wasn't reliable on routes or getting open and where he was supposed to be a king at contested catches, he often looked a bit intimidated. I'm not saying he's a washout by any means. Anyone with his size, speed and catch radius could make it big in the NFL, but can he do it? He'll need to show more than he did in the preseason before we can really rely on him as a WR1 or WR2.  Coker was a revelation last season, he really played way above his (non)draft status and flashed multiple times in games and was a steady performer. What we need to find out, though, is whether he was benefiting from being an unknown that wasn't getting maximum effort from opposing DBs or if he was just outworking and outhustling everyone on the field. We should find out this season. We sure as hell didn't find out much in the pre-season (from him or any receiver or QB for that matter). He's still a question mark, but I think he has the look of the real deal. He might be this generation's next Thielen. Now, let's talk about Tet. High first round draft pick, first true WR off the board this year. Stellar career out west in college. Has the swagger of the WR1. And man, y'all are going to get mad about this but... he comes across as a mook. And in the pre-season he performed, well, not so great against poor opposition of second and third stringers. Yeah, he caught that one moonshot ball in the first game but really, nothing else lighting the place up. Rookie endzone drop in that game, too. He's still young and adjusting, I'm sure, but I was hoping to see something of a breakthrough kind of guy. I'm still looking. Hunter Renfro? Gosh, I hope he can make the team and make a comeback to his old form. It would be such a great story. But maybe neither one of those happens. We won't know until Tuesday and then, if he makes it past there it could be weeks. So, TL;DR: AT is all we can bank on right now. We couldn't afford to let him go considering the number of unknowns we'd be throwing out there for our QB, who himself is still an unknown. One thing to add: Our receivers coaching group has their work cut out for them. I hope they are up to the task, but the pre-season gave me little reason to believe in them. And I really need something to believe in here in Carolina.  
    • Same I think Randsom is a baller..... hopefully we don't have to suffer through 4-8 games of Scott blowing azz to get him on the feild.
    • Linebacker is the biggest need - I hope we figure out a way to address it. Krys Barnes is the only one who even moderately flashed.  Super nervous about Trevin/Rozeboom as a duo (Still like Trevin) I'd be excited if we had a better vet to mentor Trevin.  Or a better younger guy to support Rozeboom.  They just don't fit well and it may be a big problem against the run, even with our DL much improved.
