Next year WR options

Very early but after seeing our group Sunday I think it’s safe to say this will be a priority along with CB. 
 

Top 3 free agents I’d like to see us target: 

-Tee Higgins, Michael Pittman, Calvin Ridley. I imagine no way JAX lets Ridley walk but we know Higgins will be available if not traded. Wouldn’t mind seeing us overpay him for 3 years while we have Bryce cheap. 
 

Top 3 realistic draft targets: 

-Keon Coleman, Xavier Worthy, Malik Nabors. Worthy is my choice here, true speed guy that can stretch the field. I’m not sure he makes it to the second round but if he does I’d be ecstatic with that pick. 
 

Who are you targeting for next year?

I would like to see a trade for Brandon Aiyuk next year. Don’t see how 9ers can afford to resign him in 2025. Long shot, but I would consider doing it for our 2nd round pick. 

unfortunately I don't see them trading him till after this season, next year we wont have our 2nd so really no way to get him.

I was trying to say next year as he is entering his final year, also the year we have our 2nd. It’s a long shot for sure. But I would see what it would take. Next year is the year to trade for a stud WR for Bryce.

Van Jefferson- Maybe takes a discount to play for his dad. Nice # 3/4 WR

Curtis Samuel-Would welcome him back if not too expensive. Run the gadget plays for Viksa and not super slow

Mecole Hardman- hasnt lived up to his potential but man is he fast

KJ Osborn- With Jefferson and Addison there assume they'll let him walk. Another 3/4 WR option

I dont see us getting a true WR #1 next year.

I have my eye on Rashod Bateman and his usage in Baltimore. He’s another injury-plagued WR with some upside which we clearly don’t mind targeting. 
 

If Chark doesn’t work out, we can probably get Bateman for cheap before the deadline if Flowers keeps eating into his targets.  We’d have him on his rookie contract in 2024 and 5th year option available if he produces and is healthy.

lol we might be in some trouble.

 

You can go ahead and take Ridley off that list. If we don't get Higgins we are in panic mode.

 

Pittman is barely a #2 WR.

 

Draft is a gamble we have no 1st rd pick anyway.

 

 

Pittman’s stats are right there with DJ Moore

We don't really know yet how our current corps is going to finish or how the college crop will end up looking.

Definitely too early...

Not too early. We know for a fact this group won't be set for next year. The only question is can Mingo develop into a 1 and TMJ a 2. Hopefully one of those 2 happen

    • Who is "they"?  Who in the media still argues that Bryce Young could reach the levels that people thought he would before the draft? I mean, nobody is going to come outright and bash the kid.  By all accounts he's a good dude and I think that is why you don't see the media come after him like they did Zach Wilson.
    • It started during the Denver game after that first drive. i don’t think the panthers got a first down again until the fourth quarter. 
    • The Panthers will finish with at least 7-8 wins.  So that leaves them with only two "smart" choices in my opinion: 1. Sign a reasonably priced free agent QB and see if they are better than Bryce Young in training camp - The issue is there will be very little options.  There is almost no way the Colts let Daniel Jones walk.  Rodgers, Flacco, and Wilson will likely retire (and is Wilson better than Bryce anyway?).  Winston is under contract with the Giants for another year.  That leaves Mariota, which I'm all for, but the Commanders will make a big push to keep him given Daniels' injury history.  Outside of him, there is literally nobody else. 2. Stick with Bryce Young for one more year - Nobody wants this to happen, but the Panthers won't be in a position to draft one in the first round and it isn't a strong class to begin with.  Mendoza, Simpson (and do we really want an Alabama QB?), and Moore will likely all be off the board by the time we pick.  Bryce isn't good, but we are still 5-4.  I'd rather continue to build the rest of the team than reach for a QB.  Then we could set ourselves up nicely in 2027 to make a splash play if we choose.  This is how we should have approached years past; stuck with Kyle Allen or Sam Darnold or Teddy Bridgewater and kept building the team until we were ready to make a splash.  But every year we panicked and did something stupid. There is the idea you could throw a dart at a guy in the later arounds, but IMO this just isn't a good QB class and odds are it will be a wasted pick.  I still think we need a lot of depth on the defense.  I'd rather focus there.
