Panthers actively shopping for a WR

Even if it solely wasn't the bad idea. What they did afterwards to fix the WR corps was pretty close to a disaster.

You mean leaning on an aging vet allowed to walk because he's lost a step, an injury prone deep threat specialist when throwing deep doesn't seem to be a huge part of our offense, and two recent 2nd round "upside" picks wasn't a great recipe for success? Oh, don't forget pulling a Hurney and paying a career underachieving journeyman of a former 1st round TE like a legit starter in the hopes paying him as such will make him play like such. Just brilliant.

Because 31 teams had the opportunity to get him for basically nothing. We don't need to mortgage the farm for a WR if it's not there

This right here is the thing. If we had any eye for available talent for cheap to replace DJ Moore we would have acquired him for absolutely nothing. Now, here we are with a middle of the pack DE wanting top 3 DE money, no true #1 WR, and wondering how we got here. It’s embarrassing when the message board can see the writing on the wall before the GM does.

    • He can’t even learn to run routes. No chance in hell he can do both that and pick up blocking schemes 
    • Well he had essentially a 70% completion rate for almost three thousand yards.  Biggest issues were awkward and inconsistent release.  I wouldn't call arm strength bad, but not great.    
    • I see him being better and most of that is a few downfield passes that were seemingly non existent.    But it is what is around him that has dictated the trajectory more than the quarterbacking. He is game manager level and unable to dictate to defenses.  And even if I am wrong and he is the reason we ‘upwarded’, we are bumping our heads on the ceiling and only making meager gains. If it is an incline it is awfully shallow degree wise. Like a finance graph that tracks your progress and hovers around the rate of inflation. Barely breaking even.  Is that where you want your money?  We make up these deadlines expectations and generally he does the minimum of what he needs to do to hang around.    It does not encourage me to believe that when we get into a game against a good run d that we cannot break down with our run game, to believe that we can pivot to the air and successfully counter their strategy.  But they run it back again. Of course I am gunshy of a repeat of the same thing we have watched for three years.    oh, and yes his durability is his most impressive positive for my money. I fear the other shoe dropping on that and the contractual consequences that will follow.   Last  of all, too late to edit my mistake here but would like to acknowledge it: the last three years has done very little to convince me that I was not wrong in not wanting him. One too many “not”s.
