WR Diontae Johnson to the Panthers

Yeah, this guy legitimately can win off the line and get to his spot. This is exactly the type of player that can help Bryce to maximize his potential, utilizing his anticipation.

Diontae is quite the opposite of the sloppy route runners we had last season just drifting aimlessly out of their breaks.

The actual separation stats, no cherry picking.

It’s not apples to apples.  Johnson is in a different tier than Theilen. Johnson played on the outside and Theilen was running the slot often gifted stuff last year

He's awful and not our long term solution, the longer you stick your head in the sand about it, the harder it's going to be for you to enjoy Panthers football anyways, as you're just going to get your hopes up to get crushed.

It's also not a narrative, it's what we all saw with our own eyes on the field, the kid doesn't have any NFL level physical traits

Man you are out on Pluto with this take.  Total bullshet.  Talent is absolutely not a problem and you think this is the only move at WR?  Get over yourself

Added bonus Diontae is actually 5'10" 180 so we'll get a real world assessment of BY's size in camp. Settle the size mystery once and for all

If he's "the guy" he's expected to be as a top overall pick he will show up to camp looking like he's been hitting the weights for at least a few months

    • Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.   
    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying. 
    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
