Receivers coach Richard Williamson, who has been with the Panthers since their inception, announced his retirement today. Williamson, 68, has been the team's receivers coach for 13 of his 15 seasons with the team. He was also offensive coordinator in for some of 2000 and '01.

Carolina was Williamson's longest stop as a coach: He'd been in the NFL since 1983, serving stints at Kansas City, Tampa Bay and Cincinnati. He served as the Buccaneers' head coach in 1991 and for three games in 1990). He was also head coach at Memphis from 1975-80 in the college ranks.

He played for Bear Bryant at Alabama and caught passes from Crimson Tide quarterback Joe Namath.

It's the second coaching change the Panthers have announced this offseason. Special teams coordinator Danny Crossman was fired last week. -- David Scott

I'd like to try and bring in the Saints receivers coach Curtis Johnson, if at all possible. Hopefully, he'd be up for the challenge, lol.

Look what he's done with Colston, Lance Moore, Meachem, and Henderson... Those guys have talent, but they definitely have all maximized it when given the opportunity.

CURTIS JOHNSON 2010 FTW!!!

Why in the world would he leave the Saints, who have better WRs, to come here where we have worse? I highly doubt we'd offer that much more money to make him jump. Oh, and I could look good as a WR coach with Brees as my QB.

    • Love the Freeling pick even more after watching his pressers. Dude is sharp and definitely seems to have the right mentality. I loved hearing how personal he took having a bad game with a torn labrum and instead of seeing that as the reason for his bad game and not changing anything, it motivated him to work even harder. Such a great pick, we finally got our all pro level LT for the next decade and now we can move Ickey to RT or guard with no hurt feelings due to his injury. Second favorite pick is probably Brazzell. He said he false started on his 40 and it cost him probably 0.04 seconds, so he’s more of a 4.33 guy rather than 4.37. Really Randy Moss lite. I didn’t know anything about him prior to drafting him and first highlight reel I saw of him I immediately thought he looked like Moss. Then I saw the measurables and was like yep. Then I see that he’s drawn that comparison by many scouts and analysts. If he can add consistency and play to the level of his highlights every play then we got an incredible value.
    • During his three years at UGA he only allowed 5 sacks. He is only 21 and is on an upward trajectory. He's a great athlete that was good basketball player in high-school.  His height (76% how is this only 76%???? these guys are giants now), hands (81%), span (99%), speed (96%), quickness (10 yd. 86%), and explosiveness (vert. 96%, broad 97%) are all outstanding.  When we took Freeling, Fano, Mauioga, Proctor, and Miller were all off the board so we could have drafted Iheanachor or Lomu instead or waited to the second or third round to take Bell, Tiernan or Barber or wait even longer.  A lot of these tackles (including the first two taken) project to right tackle or guard in the NFL and that's not what we needed now.  Freeling has some sloppiness to clean up in his run blocking, but he's young and getting better.  We can let him get experience behind Walker and Moton knowing if he has to replace one of the two this year, his pass blocking won't get Bryce killed. Icky's not coming back from that injury as a nfl starting left tackle and Moton is in the twilight of his career.  If Walker has a great year, we will have to pay him a lot and if he is medicore we would want to let him walk.  Getting a LT on a rookie contract is going to help a lot with the cap.    
    • It was cool but they have done this at least in recent years unless I am imagining it
