They signed him to a contract--I realize one that they can break, but that shows they have a place for him.  I think they were waiting for the draft to decide what they are going to do with TMJ.  They drafted Legette to do the job that he has failed to do....Coker will play STs and spot duty as a WR and he will compete for the slot job when Thielen leaves.  The money suggests that they are more serious about him, unless there is something I don't understand.

By the numbers I think he just needs to beat out TMJ, that's done by just being 5 minutes early to his meeting!!

Panthers can carry 7 WRs as well, there's room given the talent level and 2 QBs. 

Honestly that's the first thing canalas needs to do, forget numbers, just carry the talent.

TMJ isn’t making the roster

Yes, the contract was impressive. Dude got paid enough to make a difference in any Joe Shmoe's life even if he doesn't make it. We'll see what it is in August.

I would bet that Smitty had a voice in this. I had never heard of Coker until 89 did the evaluation.

I'll admit, it's not looking good, but it's a new day. It's not like he hasn't flashed before. I'm not counting him down and out just yet, and I don't believe that DM or DC is either.

3 spots in the wr room is up for grabs. 

You think mingo isn't safe, it is a new staff/eyes/brains etc....but that would hurt if they cut a 39 overall player just one year in....yes, he didn't look good, same goes for the other 49 players..

They will keep seven. Only the 1st 4 are guaranteed a roster spot this season. It could be 4 spots if one of these guys can carve out a spot on special teams somehow.

There's going to be serious competition in Training Camp at WR. Outside of Thielen, Legette, and Johnson, the rest of the WR core is open.

I think ISM has a 51% chance this year as well, he finished strong and KOs could help him stay as well.

I do feel WR will be featured more, but they also said "WE are going to run the ball".

      That's certainly what we hope but c'mon... stating it as fact when he's never played a down of NFL football?

      What?!?!?! Chark's 1,000 yard season was 4 years before he played for us and he only had 525 yards in 15 games as our #1 WR.  Dude has 3,100 yards in 7 seasons, he's the literal definition of a JAG and you think he is better than half our current WR room? T-Mac is literally already better than Chark was at his peak, which again, was years before he ever even put on a Panthers uniform, and there is a real argument to be made that XL and Coker were both better as rookies than Chark was for us in his one season here.

      Im glad we're starting low. It's nonsensical to put us at 28 IMHO based on objective things IMHO (I think 21-24) is far more appropriate but whatever. Washington was at the bottom last year FWIW.  In 2003, Sports Illustrated said our best chance to win the division was to transfer to the ACC. In 2015, everyone wrote us off as a team that snuck into the playoffs with a losing record in 2014 and lost our best WR in TC (Kelvin Benjamin). All these videos are fodder for conversation, but this prediction has no more validity than saying the Panthers are making the SB bc we're starting the season against the Jaguars again. If Bryce plays like he did down the stretch we will end up the season just fine. This roster is much better than it has been the last 2 seasons. No one knows who any season will ultimately end up, but this team is finally being built in the right way, and the idea that this roster can't compete this year is as insane as being it was when we were gaslit in 2023 that we were a rookie QB from winning the division with that roster.
