Are you In favor of bring back Laviska Shenault next season?

Laviska plays an underrated role on this team, especially in the run game.

His motion and ability to take what is basically an extended handoff really puts a lot of pressure on everyone on the defense tackling.

I think he is actually the perfect WR3 for this current offense.

ive been meaning to do a thread about my idea with shen. during the off-season tell him to put on 15+/- clean LBs with the idea thats hes moving to RB. I say, poor-mans king henry is my thinking or a better catching ver. He could still do all the motion stuff and even line up as a WR just like this year. Both in order to maximize his value, i believe he could handle 10 carries along with some WR snaps.

what say thee??

Sounds a little like Debo from the 49ers.

Shenault has talent.  we should find a OC that can use it.  TMJ needs reps and confidence. Moore needs a QB.  Shi needs time to develop. I like our WR group we just need to open up the offense a bit. That said I like the jumbo packages and running the ball down their throat. Introducing some deeper throws, play action and more creative play calling is the next step.

On Blackshear's TD run, 15 performed his orbit motion. Watch one of the Seattle LBs screaming into the flat to cover 15. That took the LB out of the box, and gave Carolina a numbers advantage that springs Blackshear for the TD.

Exactly. And the fact that he has taken 2 of those to the house means defenses have to respect it. It does a lot to open up the run game and overall stress the defense.

I don't expect him to be an exceptional receiver, but his role is important. And look at his PFF grades. Not that I put too much stock in those, but according to them he has played quite well. He is a great run blocker for a receiver too. 

For all the crap given to McAdoo (and much rightly so), him convincing Rhule and Fitterer to pick up Shenault was a good move.

    • Some of you act like one can't learn from experience over time. Just because you may not know what you're doing in 2018 doesn't mean that you don't know what you're doing in 2025. Frankly, you grow from experience, and success and excellence gives first-time applicants the hand probably 99.999% of the time.
    • It's an interesting topic of conversation as sports evolves. I think ultimately it would lead to a number of small market franchises folding though. Especially in the NBA where there are so many bad teams that have been bad for years and years in some cases already. But as it stands I think athlete pay draft or no draft aside has reached a point where we can and should realistically ask should they make that much compared to the average person. Now college athletes is a different conversation but even that reaches a breaking point. But we could go down the rabbit hole on this even further into overall entertainment and talk about actors making absurd sums too. In the end I think in sports the powers that be won't allow these changes to even be considered because it opens the door for so many other variables. But who knows how long sports like football will realistically be around after people like us pass on. We're only just now learning about things like CTE which the league and the sport in general will only be able to run away from for so long. As far as the NBA goes my understanding is viewership has been steadily going down for a number of reasons but one crucial aspect is key players missing so many games. The NBA has to figure that out regardless. Especially when considering fans who pay to see these athletes compete in person. But hey I guess let's just try to appreciate what we've got while it still exists in this form eh?
    • I can't see a world where the money goes down, but maybe your lottery odds are now your contract numbers you can offer.  Thunder? You can offer Flagg 4 years, 20 million.  Hornets? You can offer Flagg 4 years, 80 million.  Some form of a system where the money is still there, but so is the freedom of choice (on top of bad teams getting *some* competitive advantage to signing them).
