More cheeks than Rhule and Reich?

No but you can’t stay put at average you have to attempt to get better. If it doesn’t work keep trying again with someone else. Moving on from Rivera was the right move. Rhule and possibly Reich were the wrong moves.

I was just chatting with you based on your words. I didn't want to make any assumptions about something you didn't actually write out. So apologies for missing the moving goalposts of your implied thoughts that you left out. All good!

With or without Foreman the idea to sign Sanders was a huge mistake.  Every time he gets the ball he doesn't press the issue.  He baby steps hoping to find a hole and he gets dropped for zero to negative yards all the time. 

He was supposed to similar to CMC.  A valuable target out of the backfield. So far he is by far our worst signing in the offseason.

All I heard about Sanders when we got him was how good a receiver out the backfield he will be and how Fireman was not.

Just a reminder, Miles Sanders was rated as THE WORST receiving  RB in the NFL last year by PFF.  PFF might be flawed but they never get anything that wrong.   Sanders entire career in Philly was well documented  inconsistency and unreliability. 

Some Panthers fans somehow took one line by Frank Wrong and created a fictional RB.

This is a great point.  Feels like there was either a serious lack of scouting on him or a total desperation move by Fitty.  Either one isn’t a good sign

I mean, it still boggles my mind.   Given how well documented Sanders issues were over his career in Philly and Philly basically told the league what he was.  When a good team says a player is X....never listen to a bad team tell you but he could totally be Y for us.

Every former panthers player plays better with the new team. Its because we have a crappy playcalling. Ours is so vanilla with no creativity. Its been like that since Rhule and we see more of the same now. Lets see what the OC can do. Hopefully he can provide some creativity to this offense and that Bryce can deliver.

Fitterer is absolute trash and needs to go, but we did try and resign foreman.

Just one day after the Carolina Panthers signed free agent running back Miles Sanders to a four-year contract, former Panthers running back D'Onta Foreman is on the move, signing with the Chicago Bears on a one-year, $3 million deal.

Yeah… for any of the folks on here who aren’t great at math, his contract with the Bears  is essentially half the cost of Sanders per year and they aren’t on the hook for him for 4 years if he blows. 
 

We can tap dance around the issue all we want but our front office dropped the ball hard on this one.

We tried to sign him first. He went somewhere else instead. However the Sanders signing looks like a separate bad move.

      Draft Week Rumors, Leaks and Media Draftniks Final Mocks

      By PleaseCutStewart · Posted

      Hard to interpret some of Brugler's opinions. Capable of running a robust route tree sounds like a lazy thing to say - I'm sure just about every slot TE is capable of running a full route tree... I want to know if he is currently able to (which from tape leads me to a no). Granted, it's pretty common for most receivers/TE not having a full route tree developed before they get drafted. Agility/acceleration after the catch hasn't shown up on his tape (at least his Oregon tape) for those dig/out breaking routes while it has for the seam and slant routes. Agree he has a good physical build and he is very good running seam routes. His build definitely helps him to shield defenders and create a large target point for the QB. Drops were a concern, but it could be focus drops just like T-Mac was/is prone to. Run blocking is an accurate statement, but again, we have only seen him run block in the slot/backfield - inline blocking is a whole different animal. With his athleticism, he definitely has a high ceiling. I just think he also has a low floor and don't like taking that big of a risk on a mid 1st rounder. I think this is a deep TE draft and would much rather target one in the 3rd or later. He's very boom or bust to me - bust in terms of being worth a 1st round pick, not an out of the NFL in a few years type bust. I feel like he gives me Evan Engram vibes. Not saying that Evan Engram was/is a bad NFL player, just that most people would agree he shouldn't have been drafted in the 1st.

      I mean I would love 6-1. It’s funny the hurricanes usually dominate the first game and win by three or four goals. But keep the second game close. It would be nice if it’s the reverse of that tonight.

      Brugler has him as TE1 and going to the Ravens in the first.  Apparently Sadiq's football IQ is pretty high (interviewed very well).  Also he was an WR and CB in high school.  This is why I always thought his route running was solid.  I'm sure it needs some polishing but for a TE it's pretty good. nfl.com Built like a bodyguard with a compact, well-defined frame. Capable of running a robust route tree. Gets in and out of breaks with good snap and separation. Vandalizes defensive seams with impunity against man coverage. Survives collisions with catches thanks to his hand strength. Shows off agility and acceleration after the catch. Fits up run blocks with proper positioning and base width. Grips and presses forward with moving feet to stay connected. -Again I don't know if we should take him but if he goes to the right team he could become a scary weapon at the next level.  I just like him as a prospect.
