WR Room Overhaul

Recommended Posts

We need to move on from Higgins...I don't see Cincy not franchising him. 

Likely FA Options: Evans or Ridley. Either would be amazing. Ridley is my FA crush. His speed, separation, route running and YAC is exactly what BY9 needs.

Draft at 33: Worthy, Franklin, Mitchell, Polk

If we go OL at 33 and wait until 65: McMillan or Cowing

Well, aside from spending $40M a year on WRs for noodle arm, why draft 2 rookie WRs if we keep Thielen and Mingo as well?

I can assure you that Evans and Higgins aren’t signing 1-2 year deals.

I want to draft a rookie, preferably at 33. It looks like a deep WR class so we could get a guy who would have gone in the 1st in most drafts, like last year when reached for Mingo in a great TE class. If we can get a Downs/Dell type in the 4th (possible again due to deep class), I would be happy with that too.

I’d rather not spend much cap at all on expensive FAs. Keep Thielen and develop 1-2 rookies plus Mingo so they are ready to be solid starters when we find our real franchise QB. Rollover cap to 2025/2026 to splurge on FAs hopefully after a couple solid drafts and a new QB.

Get rid of everyone except Mingo.

We can afford to pay the premium it would take to make a premier WR want to consider our shitty team and shitty offense. Huddle is always hilarious when it comes to landing WRs in the off season. “Why don’t we just trade for Chase, and Jefferson and sign Evans and Higgins?”

I’d sign Dortch or Ritchie James as a cheap slot guy. They both do just fine when they get playing time. I would sign Ridley. He is good enough to be a WR1 on a team and might go under the radar with a hand full of other bigger names in FA. Throw a draft pick at one and hope we land someone talented for once.

yeah it's really not that far away if we're willing to spend the money there. we could go from last to 16-20ish range by doing what you said

The Michael Pittman disrespect in here…

Dude reminds me of Nuk Hopkins or DJ Moore. Not in a talent, skill or size aspect but just the fact they all put up big numbers year after year with average QB's. MPJ is definitely underrated.

Does the Tampa OC hire means we have a legit shot at Mike Evans?

Unless Mine Evans has given up on his career and just wants to collect a paycheck I don’t think there’s any way he’d sign with the worst organization in the NFL. Evans has a real shot to break some NFL receiving records.

Honestly I was just kinda surprised you wrote that. Do you have an arguments to my points made? Not even tryna be a dick, maybe I’m missing something.

I like everything you said except keep Mingo. 

I think people are trying to create imaginary narratives about Mingo in order to be gratuitously negative. Mingo's rookie year wasn't great but it wasn't terrible (which is a miracle considering the circumstances). He just needs to keep developing. He can probably be an effective chain mover.

    • this     I never cease to be amazed at the number of people who will run up their blood pressure to get to the grocery store 30 seconds faster or are racing to get to work like it won’t be there at 8:02.   The only thing I’ve ever done that I think added more years to my life besides quitting smoking, was to learn to go with the flow behind the wheel.  
    • The term you're looking for is "malinger(ed)", and he didn't.  I'm not sure why Panthers fans act like jaded ex girlfriends.  The dude is clearly injury prone as his time in San Fransico also proves. It's not like he got to San Fran and stopped having problems.
    • My long and rambling post:   The guy is all heart, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he came back even better next year. He’s exactly the guy you lock up. The money won’t ever change the way he plays.  It was a big fumble, but what 1,000 yard back fumbles once in an entire season?  Pride. This team is FINALLY seeing guys who obviously take the game very seriously. Hunt, Chuba, Thielen, Brown, Horn (CB), Coker, Bryce (IMHO). Bye bye, Spider-Man. I don’t see these dudes being OK with teammates half-assing practice or in games. I can see Brown and Horn coming over to talk to somebody.  Good team? Ummm, maybe, but will still likely lose more close games than they win unless this last draft turns in to LOB part 2. That’s a stretch.  Pretty good/decent team. Yes. They finished the season as a pretty good team. I know I sound like a broken record harping back to it, but going in to ATL and putting a 40 burger on them en route to an OT win. A bad Panthers team would have had their brakes beaten off. We’ve seen it.  Rose colored glasses on and bonging a 40 of hopium: There are watershed moments that occur that change the course of franchises, both good and bad. If Fox doesn’t pull Rodney at halftime, the epic journey that was 2003 never happens. On the negative side, Cam taking that one hit from Watt was the end of any and all Panthers relevancy and we’ve been the biggest losers in all of pro sports as a result. Watershed moments. LOB draft. Vinny goes down and the goat is born.  Will the ATL game be the spark that this franchise has desperately needed? Could it be that they hit the mega million jackpot with Princley and Scourton as eat QBs for breakfast? Sure would be nice having 2 all-pro edge guys on the cheap for the next 4 years.  A lot of unknowns, but at least it actually feels  fun again.
