Panthers sign wide receiver Damiere Byrd

Can’t complain. He is a vet now, been around some different coaches and QBs, and should be a better version than what was here before. 

And we would have to be exceedingly lucky to be able to draft a WR who could make an impact as a rook, where we will be picking. Because of that, I don’t see it as a high draft priority. Get someone at a different position that can come in and help their first year. Edge, TE maybe?

about the same, little slower, but better routes.....typical aged jaggy player.

 

My view is him at KR or PK...oooo and he lit up the pantgghers either last yr or the year before. 

 

Hes still a solid 5 type of option. 

He can contribute more as a returner than Andre roberts or Erickson did under the last staff. Those guys were useless as receiver depth. Thomas Brown was a returner so I wouldn't be surprised if he wanted something that could work better for him and Tabor equally. Shi probably shouldn't be back there except injury emergencies, especially punts

Seeing how easily he torched us last year and helped keep us out of the playoffs why not give him a flier. He'll if he can play his role and be used situationally he's honestly not a bad WR at all. 

Is this not the same logic that got Chubba drafted? MrsRhule said get him cause he ran all over you? 
 

 Fecesiality aside, I liked Byrd when he was here, showed lots of promise back then, hope he learned a few thing in NE & ATL… show up here, now…

    • I see Bryce's development this way: He improved when his supporting cast improved.  TMac and Dowdle saved his arse last year, but in fairness, most good QBs have good WRs and good RBs--and good OLs.   The 2025 OL underperformed, actually. They were above average, but they should have been elite if you consider the salary cap.   As soon as we signed Lewis and Hunt, I started thinking, "That's not sustainable.  With Ickey about to get paid a LT salary, Moton and Hunt grabbling $50m per season combined, and Lewis around $17m--that would be nearly $100m and the Center just walked.  Yikes.  What does that mean?  Rico walks, Mays walks, and we do not have a top 5 WR on a second contract.  We do not have an elite TE, and only 1 is on a modest second contract. And now Bryce will demand $50m for his incremental rise to mediocrity?   So when we sign Bryce, we will get weaker at other positions.  Hunt, Moton, maybe Ickey and Lewis, will all be casualties--that is the right move regardless (not sure yet about Ickey, but he was not elite) Bryce is one lucky, entitled camper.  No competition since being drafted, and he lost his job for a while to the aging clipboard holder.  Now we are bringing in UDFAs and busts to compete with him.  
    • Probably not.  If we are taking a QB, it would be a prospect to replace Bryce and not a flyer type player.  I can't say for sure, but I doubt he would have cracked the top 3-4 QBs even if he were to play this coming season.  
    • The Giants, Cardinals  and Dolphins should have moved on, but they didn't and ended up cutting their QB early into a monster second contract and had to eat a TON of dead cap money.
