I think this guy is poised for greatness. I know he didn't get a lot of playing time, but I can't recall any dropped passes this season. However, he did have one fumble during the first Saints game.

Do you all think that Fox will use him as a receiving tight end moreso than a blocker next season? He's tall and built like a wide receiver. Personally, I'd like to see this.

One of the best play he did this season was when he caught the ball & keep running. He could've gotten a TD if no defense players was around him. He is going to get better if he keep it up. I think maybe he should bulk up some. He look a little too skinny compare to King & Rosario.

That was a great play. I liked how he realized he was gonna get caught from behind and secured the ball. He came from Louisville as a highly regarded receiving Tight End. At 6'5" he is a huge target but I agree with Pantherdude he needs to bulk up some. I believe he could take that #1 TE position. If he can get the #1 spot, Moore would have more options then with King or Rosario.

Go Panthers

Barnidge is the best TE on the team, and he's 3rd on the depth chart. Makes no sense to me. Worst thing is as a receiving TE most critics would say that means he doesn't block as well but he was in on a lot of 2TE running sets but was taken out almost every passing situation. He makes play after play when given the shot but for whatever reason Fox just doesn't move him up.

I think Barnidge is poised for greatness, he's made some eye-popping plays when he's got his chance. The guy is a freak, met him at the pro-bowl party, he's every bit of 6'6" which makes him a matchup nightmare for LB's and safeties.

I really hope we get an extended look at Barnidge this year.

      Panthers schedule is out

      By jfra78 · Posted

      I've actually been very complimentary of him.  I have said that I think he will get the bulk of receptions and yards. I have said I think he will be a 1k yard reciever thia year. He has issues tho and I guess no one is allowed to point them out.

      We don't have to lie, 4.8 was official and there were scouts who had him in the 4.54 to 4.57 range

      Think the "official time" put out was 4.48, but there were a lot of scouts there who of course all had difference times as it's all handed timed by them.  Think I saw it as low as 4.43 and as high as 4.62 or something, but in the end it's all basically the same speed because 40 yard dash is so pointless. Anyone who complains about his speed is just someone who wants a Chase/Jefferson/Nabers style #1 as opposed to an Evans style #1 who isn't going to beat you because of his speed but his other abilities. In the end, he's fast enough for a player his size and surprisingly quicker and more agile than people give him credit for too. The real problem is that Panthers fans can't get our past big WR failures out of their head, they hear "big WR" and automatically see a plodding KB or Jarrett in their minds and assume that's also T-Mac.
