You make it sound like Sanders is a hack scrub. You haven't been paying attention or you are just overly biased if you think that's the case.

Or your just drunk and you just want to argue about something.

Here is what your missing because I do watch. Ill learn you. He can't break tackles nearly even half of Fore man but a better pass catcher n not even as fast as Chubba, I don't dislike the guy but our two heads for cheaper beat his one head.

I still can’t tell if OP is buzzing about Sanders being worse the Foreman, worse than Hubbard, worse than both, or worse than those two combined. 
 

Foreman is a power back who lacks elite explosion but runs hard. I liked him and most of Panther nation liked him and appreciated his efforts. 
 

Hubbard is a straight line runner with hands that one poster recently, and appropriately, described as tennis rackets. 
 

Sanders is regarded by everyone in the NFL, and really everyone except OP, as better than both. He is a young, top 20 RB in the league. It was a great pickup and what’s in your mind about it doesn’t change that.

So what I'm gathering  from you, is no matter what, you don't like the move. Thanks for wasting our time with this thread. 

No reality is you will love it until it was wrong and I'll give you the respect not to ever bring it up. I don't hate the guy, but we definitely could have done better even with our own guys.

You made a thread asking to have someone explain this to youso you can understand.

The problem is you won't change your mind about it. You don't like the move. You think you know what this team/coaching staff needs  or wants to do and how to do it better than them. 

If this was still the Rhule/Wilks era, which you might fit better in, that might be the case. 

We're dealing with guys that know offense now and know how to be successful.

Probably the best thing for you to do is just watch because you're really not interested in any conversation.

The pros agree with me. 

What pros?

I like Sanders but come on, he's like CMC?

He doesn't line up out wide and doesn't run wheel routes or go over the middle or anything like that. He caught very few passes last year.

CMC is a rare specimen

My assumption would be you didn't change it.

I don’t understand why OP is posting as if Hubbard is no longer on the team. Our tandem is now Sanders & Hubbard instead of Foreman & Hubbard. I’m assuming OP fell in love with thunder & lightning RB duos. 
 

No legitimate NFL minds view Foreman as more valuable as a RB than Sanders. That can’t be disputed.

    • Yes, he's a tier above them, but you also touched on the money side of it.  With T-Mac locked in as our #1 on a rookie contract for a few more years, I'd much rather use that money that would be needed for DJ on our defense and develop Coker into our #2.   Especially given his contract situation as an UDFA, as his contract is up at the end of this year but we can keep him around for a 3rd team controlled year on the real cheap.  Which means we probably could get him to sign a very reasonable extension this offseason to give him a little more money while giving us a bargain contract for what he provides. DJ's contract is north of $20 million for the next 5 years, why pay that for your #2 WR with the needs we have on defense and you have guys like Coker, XL, and Horn on rookie contracts who very well could combine to be a serviceable 2-4 WRs behind a stud in T-mac? I love DJ and he'd be a great fit on this team as our #2, but the money side of it just makes absolutely zero sense, that's all it comes down to for me on this one. And no, I don't see the Bears wanting XL back in that trade, because they drafted Burden, who is essentially a better version of what XL provides, a player you want to get the ball into their hands and let them go to work.
    • I didnt see that many bad calls in the panthers cowboys game, but the chiefs especially in the playoffs were getting every single call they could get then the refs when it didnt matter would throw a call towards the other teams.  That I believe was the taylor swift effect.   But its crazy just thinking about how easy it is to change a game.  You dont need but a single ref to make a few close calls go towards one team over the other and in the nfl that is the game.  
    • I don't think it's unrealistically blaming Bryce Young......to say has been a reason, sometimes a big one, in why our pass offense overall has been extremely week over the past 3 collective seasons.  I think that bothering anyone, is just being overly invested in some Bryce Young argument.  It's just a reality.
