I've seen ostensibly lesser WRs play better with Mayfield under center.

You can't make this statement without first acknowledging he isn't the same QB. He was solid to inconsistent even a year or two ago now he is just awful and is going to wash out of the league.

Meh. I tried to tell some of you that Baker had a lot of limitations, but was ignored. He was never what some Huddlers swore that he was, and D.J. isn't either. Let Baker go bye-bye and draft another legit, route running play maker at receiver, and we'll be better off.

Hardly anyone wanted Baker just like hardly anyone wanted Sam. But the powers that be made their decisions. DJ is one of the punching bags now because this team valued a corner who was a local kid with a feel good story over a possible franchise quarterback. Trade whoever you want draft whoever you want but until we finally take a real swing at our own young quarterback in round 1 none of this arguing over which Panther is or isn't overrated matters.

I've seen D.J. for years now. I've thought that he was a WR2 since his rookie year, and I still see him as one.

You could just say you've never thought he was going to be good I mean clearly that's the case. You've given Robbie Anderson more leeway than DJ Moore so yeah. But hey we've all got opinions that's okay.

You must think he hasn't been "good." I've said to the contrary. 

Robbie is gone and was never meant to be our WR1. 

D.J. is paid like our 1, but hasn't played like our 1. At some point, the excuses have to stop. Realize the guy's ceiling and move on. He's a good receiver, just not a great one (as I said before). He needs to play among other skilled play makers to maximize his efficiency. Why me saying this bothers you so much, I don't know. TMJ has basically outplayed Moore for the last month. That should tell you a little something.

Yet, we turned down GB’s 1st round pick for him. Trash organization makes trash decisions.

    • 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
