It wouldn't surprise me if Mingo ends up being one of the best WRs of this class.   

Yeah I didn't catch up on him til late but I wasn't very excited about all the smaller guys when we already have Shi and Byrd. Sounds like TMJ is going to get a lot more work as well, he was great after the coaching change with sub par QB play

Everyone outside of Panther nation freaked out when we traded Moore, but when we added Theilen and Chark our receiving corps was already massively improved overall.  Adding Hurst, Mingo, and TMJ making some serious strides last year makes me feel that shipping Moore was a brilliant move.  It's called addition by subtraction.... then addition again.

It wouldn't suprise me if he will be our best WR by the end of the season. I feel like he and Bryce will develop a chemistry as rookies and it will lead to him being his #1 WR.

I think Young and Theilen are going to get some chemistry early. He will be a nice vet for Young to lean on early.

Did the panthers overdraft all the players they drafted or is that just what the projections are saying 

I think we did. We got who we wanted so if they work out, no big deal but it seems that we did overdraft our day 2 guys. Sometimes you can’t trade back and sometimes you panic a bit.

It all comes down to Young. He’s the make or break. I think we had a decent FA run and I like Young a lot. Concerned as most are, but without knowing his true size, loved him as just a football player.

I’m not really impressed with Fitterer as a drafter. 2021 class was honestly bad. 2022 was not good either. Giving up extra picks all over the place due to trades and trade ups, like Corrall and Johnson this year. The fact that we are looking at XFL guys to fill the roster shows you how much draft capital we’ve given up (ignoring Young).

Again, Young makes the mistakes go away but we have to put some weapons around him. Hopefully, Mingo is more Samuel/Moore than Shenault.

About trading Moore:
The focus is on spreading the ball around, referring to Bryce as a "point guard."  If multiple players get touches, it takes the focus off one guy--and the need to have a #1 guy.  A lot of secondaries adjust around the #1 CB, #1 WR relationship--theorizing that they will have your #2 or #3 beat them.  Without a clearly identified #1 but with several accomplished, talented WRs on the field, our #2 and #3 will beat them.  I am guessing this leads to more zone?  Seriously---in the past, we have had 3 good WRs--2 good ones and a third down, possession WR.  Now, we have 5 very good WRs (in theory at this point) Chark, Thielen, Shenault, Mingo, Marshall.  Expect to see improvement from Shenault and Marshall.  I honestly think this group could be very special by the end of 2023.

Hurst is a huge factor in this offense.  Last season, our TEs were known for blocking---Thomas and Tremble.  Now we have more of an offensive threat.

I dont think we have seen the best of Shenault yet. Maybe I am wishful thinking (probably am) but I feel like he has a ton of untapped upside to give us.

      Big changes coming

      By MechaZain · Posted

      I'd like to see the gameday chats come back, especially if you can get it mobile compatible and like those support chats that stay on the screen even when you move around the site. We could use them during CLTFC and Hornets games now too.

      There's a lot of truth here, but at the same time, that one year of production we might be paying for is actually paying for a development arc. And a lot of players have those. QB is the most complicated position in sports, hands down.  I'm not saying Bryce will make it past the hump this year, the odds are stacked against him just like any QB in the league that isn't already considered an elite player (and there are only about 5-8 of those at most). Arcs happen, and slow arcs happen, too. Sam Darnold seemed a wash up for the Jets and a horrible mistake. He was better with us, but still couldn't carry a bad team on his shoulders (or bad coaching). He went to Minnesota and got a shot under better coaching with more mature eyes to see the field. Something sparked and then he took his team to the Super Bowl and brought home a ring. Baker Mayfield had a similar arc, and may yet hit the big game. Hell, locally, Jake Delhomme had one. Or Bryce could flutter back down having already hit his peak. It happens. More often than any of us want to admit. We've paid for a full development arc for Bryce, but we've had it on rookie deal rates and that's been a savings that has let us build out the rest of the team, which was really needed. Maybe we end up diving back into the QB pool in the first round next season. Might be the guy, might not.  But he'll be set up with a better team that Bryce was when he started. Or maybe, just maybe, Bryce adds another seven TDs and loses four INTs on the season. Grabs three more wins and maybe a playoff win, maybe two. It's not completely impossible and that'd be great for the team and for him.  We're just going to have to tune in and see how it plays out. Probably won't be boring.

      I am holding out hope for a miraculous run this season. But you know the narrative around him is peak delusional when the Panthers social team can post this without even a hint of irony. Four years and almost 50 games into his career he still looks like he's never set foot in the weight room. Really?
