Time running out on WR

As Hurney has stated in the Pre-Draft conference (which you can watch on panthers.com), they are building through the draft and they already have a good, young core of guys they want to build this team around. That said, we should've all expected that Fox and Hurney were not going to go after a big name free agent due to the CBA negotiations and because some of these high end names will require a big contract.

Best bet is that they will get atleast two receivers early in the draft. As to who, I don't know but we will find out on friday (if they don't move up into the 1st round)

Yeah, we have to draft two because Smitty turns 31 before the 2011 season (if there is one). Pfffft, old @ss geezer.

lol@this thread... if we were going to shore up a position for years to come, we would have signed Marshall...

wE HaVEN'T GotTeN A WR sO WE PROBAlY Aren';t GETTinG ONE EVERRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!

granted this is sarcasm... however, if we were looking for a game changing receiver we would have done this already.. you are more right than you think... what is crazy is to put all your faith in us drafting solid WRs in the draft that will take pressure off Smitty this year (or next year.. hell, let's try 2 years from now)..

    • To kick this up, The Athletic has a really comprehensive piece out where pretty much all QB questions are addressed. It is worth seeing.  https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7083539/2026/03/04/starting-quarterback-projections-free-agency-draft/?source=user_shared_article I’m putting something specific here but it should have a thread or something. It is an extensive exercise.  This is a dense write up with a lot of column inches used, about the Jets and Murray and Reich, all this stuff.. then it goes to backup QB and there is Dalton.  I am pasting that part: As for Dalton, Reich is installing the offense he was trying to run in Carolina in 2023 before he got fired, and Dalton was with the Panthers then; he’s an ideal option as a veteran backup to replace Taylor. Reich said this about Dalton in 2023: “The way he's throwing the football, the way he works through progressions, the way he handles the operation. … Since day one (when) he walked in the door, I'm like, 'This guy is starter-worthy.' You guys know I've said that all along. He's, in my opinion, one of the best 32 quarterbacks in the world.” ——— That’s true love lol. I never heard any of this. Pretty crazy I think, considering how the year went.   Anyway the dream is not dead. . 
    • The Seahawks traded for wide receiver/returner Rashid Shaheed at the trade deadline. He proved to be a key acquisition. Shaheed returned a punt and a kickoff for touchdowns in the regular season and had a 95-yard kickoff return in the postseason. Shaheed, though, is scheduled for free agency. So, the 12 games he played, including the postseason, might be the extent of his time in Seattle. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Shaheed and the Seahawks are not close to an extension, and the expectation is that the two-time Pro Bowler will hit free agency. Shaheed has 153 receptions for 2,243 yards and 12 touchdowns in his four-year career to go along with three punt return touchdowns and a kickoff return touchdown. He ranks 13th on PFT’s top-100 free agents. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/report-rashid-shaheed-appears-headed-to-free-agency
