Why is no one considering double dip at WR?

IF the draft plays out like that and both 2nd round picks are WR and its not a reach so be it.  I somehow doubt it plays out like that but there is no guarantee that happens.  We have needs all over the field on both sides of the ball though. 

I mean yeah, but a horrible offense and traded your best pass rush to surround your over drafted qb with weapons so you have to give him the tools to prove your investment was right. if we suck at corner or linebacker for a year so be it. but right now the name of the game is see what you have in bryce.

Also we need one for the future obviously, but how many targets are we expecting a rookie to get after Johnson and Thielen? If it's not a slot/route runner type guy I don't think many of those 2.7 second balls are going to a vertical guy. If BPA is a corner or edge that would have immediate impact I'd be bummed if we reached for an XL or Troy Franklin over them

Johnson and Theilen are also both most likely gone after this season vs hanging around.  Thielen is basically a TE limiting the O given what Bryce wants and needs to do with the ball.  WR is a hole short term and long term….and it’s tied to salvaging our QB. 

a 2nd rookie corner likely isn’t going to impact much…. especially if the pass game doesn’t drastically improve.  I still think a WRs and a rec RB would do more potentially for us than anything else.  Cogs in the wheel to fix the offense.  We don’t need a super stud.  We need improved O talent all over the map.  Speed.

I'm certain we double-dip at WR, just not necessarily in the 2nd round. I think we go WR with one of the 2nd rounders and get another WR in the 3rd/4th.

I would definitely go Pearsall at 65 if he's still on the board. Won't be surprised if he goes earlier though, he's probably the next best route runner after Ladd but has a little more size and can take on more contact/contested catches

 I mean it would be a very Panther thing to do….to avoid WR in a WR draft.  No arguing that.  We are the worst team in all of sports for a reason. 

Couldn’t disagree more, reaching for a position even when it is not BPA is a Panthers thing to do. Taking BPA would be very refreshing and the right thing to do.

They won’t be reaching for a WR at the top of the 2nd (33-39) unless things go completely insane…..

I mean, the top of 2nd is where legit WRs should be.   Now they could pick the wrong WR.  But positionally WR shouldn’t be a reach there pending guys don’t fall and things go crazy ahead of us.

      Evero HC requests!

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Evero to the Raiders makes zero sense unless the OC he's pitching them is a failed HC who doesn't have interest in trying for it again. They're a team about to draft a QB #1 overall, developing him is job #1 for the new coach/staff.  Hiring a DC with a young up and coming OC wouldn't make any sense, because then you risk losing that OC to a HC job after maybe just a year or two and that young QB has to change system, play caller, etc. It's why hiring an offensive minded coach makes the only sense.  The Raiders have to make the right hire/pick with this HC hire and #1 pick combo because of that division they're in, it's a gauntlet and you can't screw up this opportunity.

      Very intrigued how Morgan and Canales handle the offseason

      1. Sadly, it's just too early to tell with Icky. And the draft will have come and gone before we have anything, FA, too probably. Njiman was good, but there's dollars to be invested there as well. This is really our biggest puzzle to figure out. And Moton on the other flank is getting long in the tooth, too.  2. Coker: Pay the man WR2 money.  3. Most WRs take three years before you really know what you've got. We'll know for sure by the end of this one and he's still on a relatively inexpensive rookie contract. Now if someone comes calling for a good, good trade... 4. This is the make or break for good teams vs bad teams. And depth development is essential. We've had a bit of that but there isn't a spot on our line that doesn't have worries except for maybe on guard.  5. I think you draft the best ILB, the smartest one in the first round and don't look back. People lost their poo here on this board when we "wasted" a pick on Luke Kuechly.  6. Yeah, I think Chuba is a workhorse. But we need to be more decisive in his use. Still not sure Rico doesn't come back next season, too. He'll get to see the marketplace first, though, and we'll offer similar numbers to him.

      I've grown to enjoy Mike & Tripp, even more so after listening to the ESPN, TNT, TBS hacks who, for whatever reason, seemingly don't know dick about the Canes.
