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.

      I'm convinced Harden wants to do nothing but put up pretty shots and try to draw fouls and then do nothing on defense lol. Brunson went off though

      what does Bryce's 2026 season need to look like for you to be oaky with extending him?

      Baker was traded before he played his 5th year.  RGIII was cut before playing his 5th year. So it is rare but it happens.

      Time to hit 4000 yards and 30 TDs (including rushing). I don't care about INTs anymore. That's a big part of the problem. He plays uber conservative until the game is on the line. Playing not to lose, instead of playing to win. Time to let it friggin rip from the get. The team can win with a pick or 2 if he has 3-4 TDs. Stop playing scared.  But to be fair, his WRs have not been great. You all can bash about 1st round picks and O-line cap all you want.  Chuba as your #1 RB his entire career.  Adam Thielen as your best WR for 2 of 3 seasons is ridiculous. Then a rookie as your best in the 3rd season. Legette is not a 1st round talent. Probably closer to a 4th if you compare him to Brazzel this year. Coker has been a walking injury report. Nothing else to really speak of at WR or TE. Jimmy Horn has potential, but he is not an NFL starter yet. Oline has been better as run blockers than pass blockers. Ickey has always been so-so as a pass blocking LT. Center has been a revolving door for 3 years. Damien Lewis has been as marketed. Hunt is a great run blocker but an ok pass blocker - when healthy. Moton has been solid at RT. Biggest problem with the oline has been depth. When someone went down, their replacement became a glaring weakness. Overall a good but not great unit the last 2 years. 2023 was a ish show. Nothing else to say.  Not one game breaker, take it to the house offensive weapon since DJ Moore. Hopefully we get a little of that from Brazzell.  Either way, in his 4th season, it doesn't matter. You have to be able to overcome whatever comes your way. First 3 seasons with a young supporting cast is defendable. Can't use that anymore though. 3rd year in the offense. 3rd year with the same HC.
