It's not about talent, it's skill set. In my mind it's

 

X: Moore, Shenault

Flank: Marshall, Higgins 

Slot: Smith

 

That's the depth as I see it. Could Smith play flanker? Maybe sure but I think you're better off working mismatches or pulling safeties attention with him.

Shi probably has shown the most potential but Shi is a slot guy at this point.  You can't just take that type guy and throw him on the outside.  Then it doesn't work.   Shenault falls into this too.  He isn't the type WR you put on the outside because that isn't what he is. 

On the outside I think you simply rotate TMJ and Higgins on the outside.

Here's the interesting thing about Shenault. If we hadn't picked him up this season, you could make a strong argument that this team would still be winless. Seriously. If you take away his two big catches in the Saints game, I don't think the Panther would have won.

A 1-5 record is terrible, but it' better than 0-6 🙄

Shi Smith seems to be the number 2 already. Why I do not know. He gets targeted enough that he is most likely the first read. Why I do not know. 

FWIW, per the official depth chart, Shi is listed above all of them:

Position    1st                 2nd                        3rd    
LWR   - DJ Moore  Rashard Higgins    Laviska Shenault Jr.

RWR - Shi Smith    Terrace Marshall Jr.

Probably hanging out with Tavarez King somewhere.

I say let Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ for you laypersons) get the snaps and see if he's worth trying to salvage.

 

Either it works itself out or there's lingering pain there that will require some work (lul)

Baker would have been on IR after his first game. 

Smitty is a different cat, but all he needs, is to see the same flame in your eyes that he has in his.

Thats why Jake could go right at Smitty without Smitty decking him.

They've both mentioned it at different points.

Steve wouldn’t just snatch his throat out.  He’d take his manhood first.  Show the rest of the players he ain’t “it”.  Then after demoralizing and emasculating, he’d break his nose.

      Chuba Hubbard is expected to miss Week 5

      By Navy_football · Posted

      I think Chuba is better in pass pro. I think Chuba does a better job setting up blockers, while Dowdle tends to just want to juke or outrun defenders. He has more big play potential, but probably won't get you the consistent numbers. He'll get you in more 3rd and long situations. Now I'm actually excited to see Etienne get more burn. That kid has big play ability written all over him. And he is NOT a punt returner.

      Luke Kuechly HC (Not Joking Faks)

      By strato · Posted

      Maybe had you put it that way instead of dismissing the guy as a ‘radio’ I wouldn’t have pushed back. I get that. At the same time, he knows the team, he is brilliant at film diagnosis, highly disciplined and would have the instant respect of any and all players in that locker room. Coaches too probably. It is hard to overstate how good he was and that includes the mental side.  I wouldn’t bet against him. Give him a couple of seasons to get the job down.  I shouldn’t say every, but I bet it is every… OC or DC that got a HC gig has said they weren’t ready for everything that goes with being a HC. Totally different than the job they had been doing, because now they have to deal with everything and they didn’t even know what that was when they started.  edit: I guess a point I am trying to make with him is, you can work your way up through jobs but when you get promoted the job is not just a higher level of the job you were doing, it is a different job requiring new skills.  The failed HC ranks are full of great coordinators for that very reason.  I resist the dogma of you can’t be good at that unless you were good at LB coach or DC.  To me, Wilks wasn’t a real good DC but he somehow understood that HC job intuitively.
