JaTavion Sanders had more receptions than Ian Thomas (I know...water is wet).

Legette is going to be solid in at least a Muhsin Muhammad kind of way.

Coker runs some very clean routes and should be featured more.  Kind of see him taking over the Thielen role next year.

I know it was another loss but it was nice seeing some rookies stepping up.

Add what you want to. 

Agree with you. Also loved that Sanders got every yard he could out of his catches. Hopefully the young guys will continue to grow, makes it fun to watch the games and will help us greatly next year.

In "at least" a Moose kind of way? I certainly hope so, but bruh... do you remember how good Moose was?

Smitty is our GOAT, Moose is #2 and then there's a loooooooong drop to the #3 WR.

This list is PAINFUL. It really highlights that we've honestly only had three quality long term WRs. I mean, our 4th leading WR barely got over 2500 yards for us.

If Legette turns out to be "at least" Moose then he's going to be remembered as an all-time great Panther and we're all going to be thrilled but I'd calm down with that comp just yet. LOL

 

Mark Carrier is still holding strong at 4th best WR, and that was at the start of the franchise. You think a rookie could surpass that in their rookie contract in this pass happy era.

DJ Moore did but then we traded him as part of the package to get the almighty Bryce Young

I like Sanders but I don't know if he will ever be a real #1 TE. Maybe I'm just spoiled from having Olsen and Walls but I think he will be solid or above average. Better than Thomas and Tremble.

Olsen was a 1st rounder. Sanders went about where he should have, I guess. I don't see it with him yet. I think he needs to get stronger, faster and fix those hands if he wants to be somebody.

He looks overwhelmed right now and I'm pretty down on him but that catch he had down the seam today was nice. That's the one play he's made that gives me hope.

Way too soon to put a level on him. Walls and Olsen had experience before they arrived in Carolina. Sanders is a pup and he's shown great potential. 

 Tremble can't seem to stay healthy enough to find his ceiling. Fitterer should have a CT Scan to see WTF he saw in Ian Thomas to give him an extension. He's slow and couldn't catch a cold.

    • Yes, he's a tier above them, but you also touched on the money side of it.  With T-Mac locked in as our #1 on a rookie contract for a few more years, I'd much rather use that money that would be needed for DJ on our defense and develop Coker into our #2.   Especially given his contract situation as an UDFA, as his contract is up at the end of this year but we can keep him around for a 3rd team controlled year on the real cheap.  Which means we probably could get him to sign a very reasonable extension this offseason to give him a little more money while giving us a bargain contract for what he provides. DJ's contract is north of $20 million for the next 5 years, why pay that for your #2 WR with the needs we have on defense and you have guys like Coker, XL, and Horn on rookie contracts who very well could combine to be a serviceable 2-4 WRs behind a stud in T-mac? I love DJ and he'd be a great fit on this team as our #2, but the money side of it just makes absolutely zero sense, that's all it comes down to for me on this one. And no, I don't see the Bears wanting XL back in that trade, because they drafted Burden, who is essentially a better version of what XL provides, a player you want to get the ball into their hands and let them go to work.
    • I didnt see that many bad calls in the panthers cowboys game, but the chiefs especially in the playoffs were getting every single call they could get then the refs when it didnt matter would throw a call towards the other teams.  That I believe was the taylor swift effect.   But its crazy just thinking about how easy it is to change a game.  You dont need but a single ref to make a few close calls go towards one team over the other and in the nfl that is the game.  
    • I don't think it's unrealistically blaming Bryce Young......to say has been a reason, sometimes a big one, in why our pass offense overall has been extremely week over the past 3 collective seasons.  I think that bothering anyone, is just being overly invested in some Bryce Young argument.  It's just a reality.
