Shenault. and he’s not, it’s a grab. 

I’m not saying he’s connected just saying he followed him recently and panthers FA signees did the same thing to other FAs they were gonna sign. I also prefaced by saying it’s probably nothing bc most of the time, players that follow other players is nothing.

30 is not old for a WR.

 

We signed a 33 year old Theilen and nobody was complaining about that signing.

There were plenty of analysts saying Theilen wasn't a number 1 anymore and not to expect more than number 2 production from him

Yeah I wasn't fully invested during the Rhule era. Shame on me for not knowing a practice squad WR.

When was Shenault ever on a practice squad? No need to slam one of our players just because you are ignorant to who they are.  FYI he is still considered our number 4 WR

Lol he's not a practice squad player and I think all but maybe you know who Shenault is. We traded for him and he's a legit weapon when he's got the ball in his hand. Most of us probably even knew who he was during his first season with the Jags when he was making a pretty decent sized splash there.  He's a dual threat kind of guy that you have to get creative in how you use him.... something we weren't great at last year.

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. 

Lol slander you?

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

They should go after him now if he’d be open to it. 

Assuming all goes to plan with Bryce and he goes the burrow route, you’re trying to make a playoff run with him next season. 

The panthers don’t have a first in 2024 and even if Marshall or Mingo become what panthers fans hope he does, you still need someone else on the other side of the field. 

Right now the only notable 2024 fa wide receiver is Mike Evans and Tampa will never let him leave. Obviously players will be cut/available for trade but if they’re going to sign a FA anyway might as well do it now and give him an extra year with Bryce before the window (hopefully) opens. 

Panthers have 27 mil in cal space and obviously burns needs to be extended, probably this offseason, but the cap is fake and if it’s a possibility then the panthers should move. 

If Hopkins wants to ring chase then I get it and Vaya con dios. Go to Buffalo please.

Our WR core was so bad I literally only knew DJ Moore/Robby and TMJ 

 

I honestly still don't know Shenault. My 1st time hearing that name.

Shenault was traded to the Carolina Panthers on August 29, 2022 in exchange for 2023 seventh-round and 2024 sixth-round picks.[18] In his first game with the team, he caught a 67-yard touchdown from Baker Mayfield in a Week 3 victory over the New Orleans Saints.[1

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laviska_Shenault

Saw action in 13 games with four starts for Carolina in 2022... Posted 27 receptions for 272 yards and one touchdown and also rushed nine times for 65 yards and one touchdown

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.

 

 

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.

    • Um, no, just no. Bills, Chiefs, Chargers, Ravens, Bengals, Texans, Eagles, Commanders are 8 teams that it's not even a debate, they aren't trading their QB for Purdy. Patriots, Broncos, Titans, Giants, Bears, Vikings, Falcons are 7 more teams with QBs drafted in the last 2 years that also would rather stick with them than trade for Purdy as they all have more upside than he does. Lions, Packers, Cowboys, Bucs are 4 more that would likely keep their QB's as well, age aside for Goff, Dak, and Baker. Panthers and Colts are two teams in the same situation, QB's who have both struggled and shown flashes to where the teams probably stick with them because they drafted them, but in a re-draft of all QB's, they probably take Purdy over the guy they currently have. Jags, Cardinals, Dolphins, are 3 more with QB's who probably have a higher upside than Purdy but come with their own question marks, so debatable if they'd take Purdy over who they already have. That leaves Jets, Raiders, Steelers, Browns, Saints, Seahawks, and Rams. Rams would take him over Stafford for the future of course, but not for 2025, and I'd think the Seahawks would take him over Darnold, but honestly not sure if they would take him over Milroe at this moment as they really like his potential and have him for 4 years really cheap. That leaves 5 teams that I see who would absolutely take him over their current situation right now, and a handful of others who MIGHT take him over their current guy, a far cry from your 20.  
    • Agreed. Also as soon as they received the top pick in the next draft it was over. Bears won that trade. Gave up a top overall pick got one the next year plus pick 9, a couple 2nds, and DJ Moore a proven young WR. Had their 2024 pick from us be in the late teens or later it would be more debatable IMO. 
    • Option A:  Pay your starting QB starting QB money. Option B:  Look for a starting QB for 4-10 years (or longer) while wasting the talent at every other position.    How many of the top 20 QB's do you think are worth what they are being paid?   When you factor in the last year of his present deal his contract is really an average of 45 million per year which in today's QB market is a very, very good deal. I wish we'd had found a Brock Purdy to pay 50+ million a year right after we parted ways with Cam.  Ya'll go ahead and live in fairy tale land where good to great (much less elite) QB's are available to pay. Just the fact that they had the chance to pay Brock after the disaster of trading up for Lance is a testament that when you find a quarter back you can win with, complete in the playoffs and superbowls with, you pay him.
