Reich and Fitterer must want to be unemployed really quickly if they gave up the house for a guy who'd have been there at 7 or 9. That's also not mentioning his status as Josh Rosen 2.0.

Don't worry Levis is not the pick.

And Campbell was the QB's security blanket last year, Reich wanted him to learn every route tree(the swiss army knife) but the cuts he makes on corner routes, post -corner routes, curl route and comeback route, and the shadow cross routes, he creates so much separation from the defender, he's very tough to guard. His injuries are a concern which is why I think he's contract won't be to much, but pair him with Thielen, he could emerge like J.Jefferson or Diggs.

 

Reich always wanted Campbell to play more aggressive. With Smitty around, I believe he helped DJ in that regard, "Ice up son"

Same thought.  I then thought of the Colts' problems with QB, OL, etc.  The more I think of today--if they come away with Campbell, Hurst, and Theilen, we'd be OK--not perfect, but on a budget, I would say we have done well.

I would imagine Ryan didn't have enough time to throw him deep passes with that OL.

yeah could just be that but he also had 7 yard per catch in 2019 on a bigger sample size than 2020/2021 and the offense was actually really good that year if I'm remembering right

I admittedly haven't followed him at all or watched him much at all -- but glancing at stats how does a 4.3 dude average 10 yards per catch over his career? That's slow crappy possession guy numbers. Just Colts QB and offense being that bad? Most of the sample size is last year and the year before in very small sample size he averaged 16 which makes more sense.

His yards per target with 6.8 - that low for a WR and scheme dependent.  He averaged 3 yac, compared to much higher ypt and ypc in prior seasons.  I suspect it was OL and QB play that brought those numbers down.

His injury history and production (based partly on the QB situation in Indy--Rivers, Wentz, Ryan, etc.) are reasons that we could get a solid WR at a discount rate.

We have many holes to fill.  Funny how the focus was first defense, then offense.

Did anyone catch Ian Rappaports slip of the tongue while discussing the Panthers FA signings on nfl network? He said the Panthers new qb Will Levis.  The other guys said well done Ian! Nice slip of the tongue!

Ian Rappaport wouldn’t have any clue. Either he’s trolling, wishful thinking or drunk. Or some combo of the above.

      The Carolina Huddle

      By ladypanther · Posted

      Wanted to jump into this thread. Although I do not post anymore I do look in as there are a few old friends around. Loved hearing some of the names you mentioned.  Another  oldie is NanceUSMC.  He is the one who got me here from the old Observer forum.  Good guy and smart football guy. I have learned a lot from a lot of good Huddlers over the years, Over time. we have sadly lost a few who left this earth too soon.  Anyone who know of someone, it would be nice to try to make a list.  One of the more recent, CosmoGirl,  was someone that kind of hit hard.  Life sucks sometimes. Some of the best times were when we had our own tailgate and could meet up in person.  I think it made us better. Several dedicated volunteers, lead by LiverMush, started setting things up in the wee hours of each gameday morning.  Don't know all those regulars but I remember JakeFlake was one.  For you newbies...each game,  a Huddler (or a group) sponsored the food for each tailgate.  Eating was free but a donation was asked for.  At the end of the year those donations were used to buy bicycles for Toys for Tots.  Over the years Huddlers bought a lot of new bikes for kids for Christmas.  (I am guessing a couple of hundred each year.)  We had a good time getting together, got to make friends in person, and then got to feel like you were doing something good. It was truly a community. I got to meet Dan Morgan at one of our tailgates...he brought pizza from his restaurant.  How many of you remember that?  Glad the restaurant did not make it....lol. Not only have people changed, and come and gone.....but the entire nature and purpose has changed. Nothing lasts forever and we move on but we still like to think about good times. Same reason we take pictures. Want to ask a question I have not seen anyone else mention......who remembers    "The Couch" ?  We have argued, laughed, lived the ups and downs of football and dealt with a little real life along the way.  A thanks to  the Mods who keep this going.  I am sure they sacrifice a lot of their time out of love for the forum and the Panthers. Take care my friends and be well.  I will close with my new favorite quote which I think is greatly needed in these difficult times.

      Favorite JAG 2020+

      By Jay Roosevelt · Posted

      My top-5 JAGS: 1. Tommy Tremble: May not ever be top-tier, but has been solid and you never doubt the effort. 2. Cade Mays: Not bad for a 6th rounder. Hated to see him go. 3. Brady Christensen: One of the most versatile backup OLs in the NFL. Hopefully we re-sign him. 4. Trevis Gipson: Quietly was really solid depth last season. Glad we brought him back. 5. Brycen Tremayne: Has been solid depth at WR, flashing at times last year.

      He wasn't a JAG, he's been a starter every year of his career. Didn't turn into the superstar it seemed like he might his rookie year, but I think part of that has been being misused. Guy was/is a baller.
