Truth be told, if Ginn caught all he dropped it would have helped Cam’s completion rate considerably. 

then when he went to the saints, he caught everything.  I think Cam threw a hard ball to catch.  Didn't he split Smith's hand open once?

Maybe, but Greg Olsen had no problem with Cams passes.

Valid point. He only went on to become the first TE with three consecutive 1k yard seasons with Cam throwing him the ball.

If Verge called this, there is a poster or two that owes Verge apology and kudos

Why? The moment we made this trade there were only two potential picks. Literally a 50/50 chance of getting it right lmao

Yes, he did, but he did not catch them all.  As a former college pass catcher, I can tell you that some QBs throw a ball that is more difficult to catch than others. Velocity, timing, and location of the pass matters.  Cam's ball was probably more difficult to catch than Brees' ball.

I think she does a great job sharing any insights she can. But for the draft QB situation it is all about what non-Panthers sources think/would do. And a lot of the time that is close enough.

Not to pat myself on the back, but I was usually pretty on spot with all the information that got out. Plus I did have us trading to #1 for Young two weeks before they traded up. I'm taking as much of a lap as I can here for this one lol
