That's good to know. But are you guys trying to slander me because I didn't know the 4th WR on the depth chart of a below average WR core?


Cmon man I wasn't fully invested this past year. 

The wide receivers are not tops in the league by far but they are not below average. And a signing of Deandre Hopkins will in fact limit reps and development of the younger guys (TMJ and Mingo in particular) no matter what you believe. Couple that with the fact that Hopkins said he is done playing with rookie QB's and now we can go cry over a new pipe dream that is not going to happen anyhow.

I know the team just not the full roster. The 3rd and 4th guys on the depth chart im going to have a hard time knowing them.

 

 

So we traded for Laviska right before the season last year and when he got touches, he was pretty impressive.  He had the highest pff on the team, I believe last year, for what its worth.

I'm pretty sure you're just having a brain fart and will remember him when you see this highlight:

Lol slander you?

No ...just surprised that a fan that posts so much in here doesn't know the team.

The #4 WR on a depth chart isn't a 3rd or 4th stringer. That guy is seeing a LOT of snaps in the modern NFL considering three wide sets are the base offense for just about every team these days. The 4th WR on the depth chart was an afterthought in the NFL of 20 years ago but he's a fairly significant contributor in today's game and is one WR injury away from being a starter.

Sometimes that's your return guy too.

Also, to be clear regarding our...slander victim here, as you may have guessed it's not just the team.

He doesn't know the game. 

When it comes to even basic concepts that a lot of us learned in Peewee, Midget or Junior High ball, his foottball knowledge has been weighed, measured and found wanting

And as I've repeated many a time, that's no big deal.

You can absolutely enjoy football without knowing the difference between the Wishbone and the West Coast. Loads of people do.

But if you're going to act like you know everything when the reality is that your game IQ is as limited as this guy's, getting "slandered" is bound to happen 🙄

That is true, but at the same time we still are a bottom 5 WR core because of those young unproven guys.

 

We basically have two #2 WR's and a bunch of younger unproven guys.

 

I get the excitement, but we still could use a legit WR.

 

Remember Rookie Cam had his best passing season as a rookie when he had a vet #1 WR in Smitty. We can't turn down talent because you want the others to reach that level. We don't know if those guys will ever be a #1 WR.

 

Soooo...You're not familiar with the WR depth chart. But, you do know we need to upgrade the unit. With a 31 year old WR who has missed half his games the last 2 years. Who wants a check, and won't play with a rook QB.

 

That's a wing and a prayer style team building I tell ya what 

 

Edit to add; jk

      Round 7: The Carolina Panthers select LB Jackson Kuwatch (Miami of Ohio)

      By bigginpc · Posted

      He does have speed. 21+ top end speed is very fast for a linebacker and his 3 cone drill time is considered excellent, close to elite.

      This is awesome because you get to see the perspectives of the scouts--get a glimpse behind the curtain. I wonder whose doing this was; I am curious as to why David Tepper allowed it. Maybe it was his wife. Maybe Dan.  At least from my perspective--and probably one shared by other fans--when David Tepper bought the team, he closed everything off too much to the fans, and really didn't give an explanation. Things were obviously done because he (and/or some others wanted to do it). Remember when they used the guise of construction and all that to keep fans from seeing the team during practice? I know there are laws and safety and all that, but Tepper could've made it happen. And, of course, we all know that they essentially fired Jeremy from his independent contractor gig as a photojournalist. I never understood why they'd do that (and the negative reverberations obviously affected Jeremy and ultimately this place--i.e, us fans). The pie was (and is) certainly big enough to throw some scraps to the independents. I realize that you can't necessarily open the floodgates, but a few different perspectives from indy journalists whether in word or photos is a good thing in my mind.  So, it's great to see different perspectives. I will say this however: it is not without risk, as you know there will be some buster who will be calling the scouts out if the players flop. I think we should all keep in mind that the buck stops with the GM. It's nice to have one, however, that is so convicted in his people and process--and ultimately success, that he's willing to give fans access to this type of information. Pass this on to Tepper.

      Round 5: The Carolina Panthers select C Sam Hecht (Kansas State)

      I hope he ends up being our best ever at the position. Ryan Kalil left big shoes behind that we haven't quite been able to fill since.
