And I absolutely hate the idea of getting some big TE ish WR specifically because of Bryce Young issues.  A QB that will have to defy all sorts of odds to be the guy.  

we added a TE in FA last year….and he had his worst year in his last half decade in the league.  

I want a quick/fast WR and a rec RB in this draft class.    Both should be easy to get if we want them.

I think thats a silly argument anyways.  Tua is barely 6' and both his wr are 5'10 and they have no problem putting up passing numbers.  Its as silly as the old Cam has to have tall receivers so he doesnt over throw them junk.  These big receivers who dont get seperation but can sometimes make contested catches are old school.  Thats not what modern offenses use anymore.   Thats what tight ends are for.  Almost all the best passing offense utilize mostly receivers between 5'8 and 6'1 I would guess without really digging in to it.

And Cam ended up going to the Super Bowl with what….the additions of speed.  Ginn and Philly.  As irrelevant as people thought Philly was, Cam spoke about even a meh speed guy going down in the Super Bowl was brutal. 

TE play was provided by the TE.

40 time is distinctively different from the ability to separate. The tape will tell the story on that. 

I don’t love him as a prospect, TBH.

Also, our history with FSU players is pretty bad. As I said in another thread, I am just fine never taking another FSU player again.

After the all "Ohio State quarterbacks suck" thing I'm out on these generalities.

yeah but he had the fastest time in the guantlet.  catching balls.  which is what matters.  how fast someone runs in tights, doesnt matter in the NFL.

The gauntlet drill is run in tights.

This guy will give Bryce a big target to throw to and many yards after the catch with his freakish size/strength, he will shrug off tacklers.  One arm catch is normal for him.  If hes there at 33, he better be a panther.

 

Wont be there at 33

I knew 4.6 is bad,but Keon Coleman is faster than Puka Nacua in gauntlet,and look how bad Puka Nacua'RAS is.

Keon Coleman is a steal if he droped to #33,he will shine in some simple routes like slant or flat,maybe he will be anther "Slant Boy".

BUT...separation guy is a prior need,like Roman Wilson,Ricky Pearsall...

I think he did a lot more for FSU than people give him credit for but I just don’t view him as a fit.

We need quick, technician do it alls I.E McConkey, Mitchell

Shifty slot types with eventual outside potential like Pearsall, Washington, Corley

Or the guys with big play, high ceiling potential like Franklin, McMillan, heck even J Jackson, Thrash or Baker a bit later.

The two I’m just not feeling are Coleman and Legette. They just don’t check the “feel” barometer for me and don’t align with what we need.

      From the ground up: How the Panthers are retooling Bryce Young's footwork to slow down time

      Well, he either plays well or we suck again and get the #1 pick and get our new QB for next year.  Im not stressing.

      the way it should be. the way it has to be.  when you get a rookie (no matter where he is drafted), you don't expect him to play like a vet or even get a grasp on NFL offenses like a vet. if you intend to have him running the offense, you build the offense around what they do and what clicks.  not Young's fault, but he was sold as someone who would be a rookie but has the mind of a seasoned vet. guess what...he wasn't. reich and "his" crew had no idea how to work with a rookie QB or groom one. they thought they knew, but they didn't and it was obvious in the lack of plan they had for him. their plan was to treat him like he was a seasoned vet. even with that, i don't think they had any clear vision not just with Bryce, but with the offense. There was no cohesion between all the various coaches. nothing fit together and reich wasn't a strong enough leader to pull it all together.  i like the approach of starting over with the fundamentals and i think it's good for any new coaching staff or new QB to a system. you don't know what to expect so you start from the beginning to make sure you're on the same page from the beginning. and as you get more used to each other, you learn what works, what could really work well, and what won't work and you form the playbook around that. contrast that with chud who had been working on a playbook for years and just wanted to use it regardless of whether the situation called for it or the personnel he had (on the team or even on the field) fit what he wanted to call.   or last year when we had coaches from completely different backgrounds trying to put something together that was supposed to be a blend of what each brought to the table, but just ended up being a sloppy predictable mess that didn't fit anyone on the team, QB, WRs, and OL.

      Least excitment before any season?

      By Johnstonny · Posted

      I've always been super pumped up for the upcoming season but I've never been so uninterested in a new season. After six years under Dipper I've been left at end of season drunken and wallowing in my own piss... not invested in the team right now but hope Canales and Morgan make a good team together...
