I guess he can only go to like 4 teams if he is looking for a truly elite QB.

Ravens, Chiefs, Bills, or Bengals. 

He probably could be the featured WR with the Chiefs or Ravens so I guess that moves it down to 2 teams

 

Jets. They'll make sure if it

Evans was never a option here.  Why would he?  Money?  Are there not a half dozen other teams with similar or better free agency money? 

I don't care honestly.  Evans is due for a slump. Heck we were able on several occasions to shut him down to mediocre stats in recent memory. He is a decent player but the timeline doesn't match up. He is looking for a ring and padding his stats. KC, Jets or Baltimore make way more sense.  Our hope is to find a mid tier FA that needs a change of scenery and add youth in the draft. Evans, Higgins, etc are dreaming.  Smith-Marsette, Mingo, and AT are the guys here and hopefully a double dip in the draft with a mid tier FA. Three new WR's to the mix is the goal. Evans is highly unlikely to be one of them.

Wait, are we saying Bryce isn't Elite?!?  Wasn't he branded as an elite processor?  I think this all but confirms that Evans will be a Panther next season.

 

Last season Bryce was elite at processing what throws he couldn't make and throwing the ball out of bounds instead of racking up an extra 10 interceptions

Also I’ve come to the belief there are no absolutes in the NFL…hell Deandre Hopkins said the same thing last year and signed in Tennessee.

Good point.

Still don't think he's coming here, but he'll move the goal posts to fit whatever he wants at the moment.

He'll probably have to wait till after the draft, though. Whoever doesn't score big time in this WR draft class will come knocking.

You have to think that a class like this will dilute his value a bit.

It also means that while he and Tee might get astronomically large contacts, this will be the last year we see WR contacts like that except for the most poorly run organizations.

If future WR classes are anything like this year's class, WR could end up being like RB has become.

We need a younger playmaker with speed. That’s what our offense is going to be built around, running game, quick release and make them pay with play action when available (the be special 3-5 times a game type play). We need speed in the worst way, pairing Evans with a 33 year old Thielen is not going to help us as much as someone with an extremely quick release

      Top 10 worst qb rooms from CBS sports. Panthers number 9

      Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out.

      I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
