We blaming TE’s now?

The TEs are who I thought they would be.

The problem is Rhule/Fitt and their attempt to force a square peg into a round hole with Thomas.

This team would have Hunter Henry, Dan Arnold, and Jelani Woods at TE right now (Also, Andrew Booth CB and Desmond Ridder) if I got my way in the draft. Instead, we got Vernon Butler, CJ Henderson, Tommy Tremble and Sam Darnold while wasting space and time with Thomas and Sullivan.

The moves for this team have been disappointing.

Not the root cause but our TE room is not good. Tremble is a fullback playing TE. Ricci  is a decent blocker that gets open because nobody covers him, and Ian Thomas is well below average. 

This franchise has usually always done well in the TE group. Walls, Mangum, Olsen, Dickson. 

I would rather have King, Rosario, or Barnidge than these guys.

4 hours ago, Move the Panthers to Raleigh said:

Don’t mention Kris Mangums name with these clowns

Couldn't really say much about blocking but all I remember about Mangum was him bobbling the few touchdowns he caught. Then again, Henning was pretty much the anti-McAdoo and kept forgetting that tight ends were legally allowed to catch a ball.

I looked real hard...there must be a typo because Ian Thomas is not listed as a top 32 TE.  Wait, there are 32 teams but the Panthers don't have a player listed?  That can't be correct.  Pfffft...lol, I've been saying our TE room is a joke.  Here is 11-32, no need to do the top 10 because we know Thomas isn't there.  Some teams, like the Browns, have TWO TEs that made the list.  OUCH!

Panthers TEs absent in rankings

FYI, I was willing to draft Goedert, Andrews, Gesicki or Hurst that 2018 draft.  Beating the damn drum for Goedert, but any of them I was willing to take.  Now look at these dudes: Andrews #2, Goedert #7, Gesicki #10 and Hurst #22.  I had them ranked that draft: Goedert#1, Andrews#2, Hurst#3 and Gesicki#4.

    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
    • Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.      
    • I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
