What magic can we pull to find a receiver?

If were are going forward with this group, they need to serious work with Shenault on his routes and hands.  He can get open and is a force once the ball is in his hands, but he's not a comfortable 'hands' catcher and to my knowledge isn't the most polished route runner.  Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think he only has limited route tree capabilities.

My stock on TMJ is at an all-time low.  Considering I was never high on him in the first place, that's saying something.

Shenault is a horrible route runner.  They are doing great with him.  All you can do is scheme plays up for him.   He is a gadget roleplayer.

What about that young guy we just grabbed from the Chiefs? I forget his name but he’s supposed to be quick and has potential. It was probably too soon to throw him into the lineup yesterday but once he has the offense down he could be our stretch the field guy. 

The word on him is raw, but with a lot of potential.  They could have gave him some limited plays, but I guess the staff thought it was a bit too soon.  I imagine he will see a few offensive snaps next week.

We used him beautifully on the opening drive and then just seemingly abandoned it. We have to get him the ball more frequently.

Chicago had him for a few games last year and the fans loved him because he apparently helped secure them the #1 pick.

So that says something...

Naw if you watch Chicago last year or yesterday JF and their lack of playmaking helped them secure that number one draft pick. He doesn't scan the field and throw players open in his 3rd year. It's all check downs or him taking off running it's really an elementary looking offense.

I mean, but he is a gadget roleplayer.   You can only go to that well so much.  Plus, if you leave him out there to try to make it less obvious it becomes just a WR that runs bad routes and can't get separation.   2-3 touches is about what that type guy is supposed to do.  The problem is elsehwere IMO.

    • Not the biggest fan of PFF grades long but they made an interesting point on their commentary this week Bryce Young is presently per them one the worst “deep passers in the NFL” this year.   Which was the comeback narrative of being great at it.  But PFF deep is actually intermediate.  It’s 10 yards.   During his comeback he was able to get off those intermediate passes because of the big shift defenses went running man and blitzing.   where Bryce struggles the most to date is just being asked to stand in the pocket and throw into coverage.   And really struggles on top of that if folks start disguising stuff.  (This part is me….and his small stature and arm struggle facing that)  so I would expect people just don’t give him man.  Dial back the blitzing and just ask him to play into coverage with his arm.     
    • While I wanted Stroud I was ok with the Young pick. I didn’t judge. Not even his first year. No knee jerk reactions. Allowed time to watch him learn. It’s into year three and it’s time. He sucks. It’s true this franchise sucks too obviously with other players AND coaches doing much better after leaving.  Unfortunately it’s a severely dysfunctional franchise and the only thing that will save it is a true generational talent at QB that this inept FO actually lucks into picking or high priced elite vet if that is even possible who would come here over other places or Tepper selling or keeling over. Things that are just unlikely to happen.   The Panthers are literally the new age Browns.
    • I knew he wasn't long for the league the first time he went flying through the air like idgaf.
