Would be nice if we could use Shenault as more than a gadget player, can he not play traditional WR?? 🤔 

I feel like this staff is competent and will get him involved. He was a late addition for us before the season started, but now he will be on equal footing with everyone else as the new offense is installed. We just have to find a way to manufacture touches for him because he's a lot more dangerous than DJ after the catch and is very hard to bring down and runs over little dbs.

Targets correlate to production. No matter what at this point if he stays healthy he will get the targets. All you have to do is grab about 60% of them and you’ll be a number one. But of course you have to give the QB a reason to target you. With his limited separation speed he will need to work on his route tree obsessively. I have hopes he can do it.

Unfortunately, I believe this is more likely. 

I suspect we will wait until prices start to fall but still make at least one WR addition in free agency.

That is my exact line of thinking!  Let the prices drop and get one in the 2nd wave of free agency and then go all out to obtain a real good one in the draft.

I mean it’d be so dam nice to have him run up the field seven yards turn around and catch the ball I might go crazy. Craziest thing I’ve seen worst part is he ran routes in jax so it’s not that far fetched.

He is a nice developmental type guy but no sooner than the 4th IMO.  Raw player

He won’t be available in the 4th and he’s not as raw as you think imo. 
 

He‘s a hands catcher who finds holes in zones well and is good at using his size advantage to position himself to make the catch. I like him in the 3rd and wouldn’t mind him late 2nd if we traded back.

Meh…missing on him doesn’t bother me,  he won’t turn into anything

This is a weak draft class for WR's to be honest.

 

Even the best WR Johnston from TCU is not even a sure thing as a #1 WR.

 

I still think trade is our best option at WR. If we can get Jeudy or Sutton we are in good shape. 

It's a weak class if you're looking for a #1 but I think there's a lot of #2s and #3s in this draft. We wouldn't be in rage at #39 to get a guy anyone is projecting as a #1 anyway. Those guys go HIGH.

Which is why I suggested the Broncos WR's via trade.

 

They both have #1 potential. Sutton was a #1 before his injury. Both guys had close to 1000 yards recieving with Russ playing terrible. The goal should be getting a #1 WR or at least a WR with that potential. The rookie QB needs someone he can trust. Depending on #2/#3 WR's is going to make his job a lot harder.

Might as well just shoot for the moon and trade up for Addison if he falls to the early 20s.  Could go WR3 behind Johnston and S-N.  

Just shmaying.

      Panthers run ONE play on repeat

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      Pretty much. I'm basically treating Bryce as a rookie again this coming season in that I have no stats expectations, no wins expectations, I'm just looking for him to pass the eye test. Just show me that you have the talent to be a legit NFL QB.

      Anyone could clearly see right out of the gate that our offensive play calling was horrendous. Anyone. The fan base was expecting secret plays that we were holing back during preseason to catch the opposition by surprise. That didn't happen. We got old recycled plays from the early 2000's that were embarrassing and didn't even come close to working. Then to make matters worse, we KEPT calling the plays that didn't work and looked awful OVER AND OVER again for weeks. Team after team knew what was coming, and what was coming was idiotic. The quadruple deep hook route was the worst of it because it led to a sack of bad pass 100% of the time. We were not call plays to set up the defense, but rather we were calling plays in a vacuum as though the previous failed plays didn't happen. Didn't matter what the opposing defense was doing, we just kept calling mediocre 00's plays that no one else was running. No one got open. Then, like a blind squirrel finding a nut, a play would work by accident, and Young would throw a turkey to nowhere, or not even notice guys were open. Young was a nightmare. Weak, confused, and rolling out the right to throw a turkey to the sidelines or nowhere. Over and over and over again. Opposing safeties were confusing Young with motion and by baiting him, but the worst part was his noodle arm. Overcranking deep passes to mars that would have been TDs with a better QB was soul stealing to see. What now? We're just trying to not have a disastrous 24' season. Just hope for improvement from Young, and good play calling. Maybe we can get 4 or 5 wins. Keep your expectations low, and if Young becomes a star you can be thrilled. The odds are low.

      I have deep concern that the answer might be both. Reich did a terrible job of catering to Bryce while Bryce just flat out didn't look like he had starting NFL talent.
