Panthers going after Christian Watson

I saw him say he didn’t expect to miss much time if any

Really trying to think who’d they be calling about.

Terry McLaurin? Davante Adams (almost 32)? I really don’t think the 49ers would trade Aiyuk. I’m ruling out the teams in our division so no Evans or Pitts. Amari Cooper? Jerry Jeudy can’t stay healthy. Courtland Sutton I’m not sure qualifies as top tier. Miami isn’t trading Waddle in year 3 of a rookie deal with a 5th year option. Jameson Williams hasn’t proved anything yet. Christian Watson? Devonta Smith?

Tee Higgins makes the most sense I think. We’re not getting Chase or Jefferson

I’m not sure why GB would trade Watson but he does fit what we’re missing in this offense

What a sad state of affairs. From drafting the NFL equivalent of Steph Curry and the next Drew Brees to calling up any front office that will pickup the phone to see if they'll drop an elite WR into our laps.

Anyone remember Crank Yankers? The Panthers front office is Special Ed on the phone line right now.

    • It's honestly pretty interesting just seeing this pairing play out. Canales’ offenses (Seattle, Tampa) are run-first, under-center, play-action systems built around defined reads and intermediate/deep timing throws. That structure worked when he had QBs like Baker Mayfield or Russell Wilson in a system that created clear launch points and sightlines. His success has always been tied to a credible run game + play-action gravity. You can see that with the Panthers team building philosophy as well. Coker and TMac both are bigger receivers that won't get the best YAC production but thrive as possession receivers in contested scenarios. They're not the best in space and creating additional yardage in such, and would likely fair better systematically with a stronger armed QB who can create better opportunities on those boundary 1v1 matchups with stronger throws. Bryce, on the other hand, is a spread-native QB. His strengths are rhythm, spacing, quick processing, and off-script creation. Asking him to live in condensed formations with long-developing play-action concepts just hasn't been his forte. And well, his boundary throws are limited in velocity which takes a big chunk of the playbook off. And I mean a QB like Bryce can still work, it's just Dave's offensive philosophy and foundation is very much at odds with Young's physical limits and his own experience. So it's certainly still a learning experience for Dave to figure out how he can mesh his offensive philosophy with Young's strengths. He's very inexperienced with maximizing Bryce's strengths with his system. Would love to see us bring in an OC with spread experience and adaptability to implement a cohesive system with Dave to allow Bryce to thrive, as it's obvious we're sticking with him for a bit longer.   
    • Only thing I really agreed with is questioning why we didn’t take any timeouts on their last drive.  I know hindsight is 20/20, but I think it would’ve saved clock bc they were desperate to score as soon as the opportunity presented itself, but I also think it could’ve helped the defense regroup and maybe give us a better chance to stop them.
