He apparently has some tude issues but what good WR doesn’t?

I think that’s largely why we got him.  Steelers have been trying to deal him for some time.  I don’t have a problem with some attitude….not sure we really have the leadership to handle that type guy presently though.   But he needs to produce and behave to land his next gig so that likely helps with this rental.

Theilen’s YAC ability is just horrific vs the field.  It is really going to limit the offense having him live in the slot another year 

100%

He needs to be a 3rd or 4th option possession guy to move the sticks only. Him being our #1 option last season was a sad state of affairs.

Yeah it all depends on what kind of attitude he has. If he wants to be the best on the field on every play that's good attitude.  If he is just a diva wanting to be the highest paid ever without earning it that's bad attitude.

Agree…and he cost us next to nothing knowing Donte was being released.

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

We really need some sort of event where all the draft prospects can come together and get official measurements by unbiased third parties without shoes, etc. and then all the teams and fans can get the real official information. They could call it something like “The Compound” because it all happens in one designated place. Or maybe “The Merger” because they’re all coming together. Just spitballing, we can keep working on the name. Until then, I guess we’ll just have to keep relying on methods like this or waste up photos with female reporters to determine height.

    • 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.
