That dummy going to make us all look dumb when he turns out to be the best rookie WR in this class.

 

Get your dumb a$$es on the bandwagon before this train takes off!

They said that about how smart Bryce was last year and we all saw what happen to the great football IQ he had.

The expectation that he is going to be Mushin Muhammad was crazy. 

He will be above average-But he won't even be what DJ Moore was. 

I forget it's that time of the year where the huddle thinks all of our draft picks will be in running for Rookie of the Year.

I remember when ya'll thought Chinn was the second coming of Mike Minter and Matt Corral was going to be All-Pro by year 3.

The scouting department should have just asked you then and problem solved for us since you have the answers and can predict who is successful moderately and who will not be moderately successful. So everyone had Chinn as being a star in the making after his rookie season and what he did but you knew different and knew that would be his only solid season with us correct? Why are you here and not working for an NFL team in scouting? Why waste time on us little people who always have our predictions wrong?

only real difference, is XL has legit freak NFL physical tools to work with.  Those 2 didn't. 

He doesn't though.   He has good straight line speed for his weight.  He has good body weight and muscle mass.  He's 6' that's not especially big, and then when you factor in his short arms and small hands it's not much more than a short wr reach wise.   He also doesn't have much fluidity/change of direction/or short area quickness.   Everyone just thinks he's an elite athlete because of his 40 and his weight and because SC had him listed at 6'3 or something which ended up being way off.

Unless you want to contest the RAS as an acceptable metric of athleticism...which I would think is an unpopular opinion.

Disagree compared to those that were mentioned.  His physical tools…size, speed, strength, ability to play the ball in the air are all better than them.  

I mean he is a very specific type WR.  Most are.  He doesn’t fit what Bryce Young does.  I’ve said that from the jump.   Does hit fit what Dave has been around? Yes.  

XL isn’t going to be anything until paired with a QB that plays the game that fits him

First off I hope he ends up great.  Second off I agree that he doesn't fit Bryce.   Like you said he is a pretty specialized receiver with a very specific role.  Everyone wants him to be a dk Metcalf which is his ceiling, but my question is what overall consistently good offense has a #1 receiver who plays this role.  It's a dated role.  Most of all our moves always feel dated unfortunately.

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      The last 8 weeks, Nix had 2,022 yards, 21 TDs, 6 INTs on 70% completions While Bryce's last 8 games he had 1,709 yards, 12 TDs (albeit adding 5 more rushing), 3 INTs on 61% completions. I'm not going to pretend I watched those Broncos games to know exactly how Nix actually looked, but in retrospect, his statistics were better.  Hell, in just his final 8 games, Nix has only 5 less TD passes than Bryce has in his 30 game (28 starts) career. And you said he had better WRs than Bryce did, but I'm not even sure that's even true either. Sutton and Thielen might be completely different types of WRs, but I'd say they are pretty equal on effectiveness if not even a slight edge to Thielen (63.6 YPG for Sutton to 61.5 for Thielen).  Then XL and Coker vs Marvin Mims and Devaughn Vale, again, at worst a push, if not lean in our favor there too. Why is it so hard for some Panthers fans to just objectively look at our team/Bryce and be honest with themselves. ? He was significantly improved the final two months of the season from his first season and a half.  But he was still a below average QB during that time, even if he had a few good throws and clutch moments.

      It's a fine balance. You need elements of both.

      RODS gotta GO

      The Canes physically dominated 2 of the top 16 teams in the league this calendar month. If you truly believe Florida is just that much more physical than us, then what does that say about the rest of the league? Why didn't they go 82-0 this year, if they are orders of magnitude better than every other team?
