POLL: Who Will Be 2nd WR

[necroplasm]

Still, the fact that we invested three draft picks, two of which were pretty high, into receivers indicates that we are trying to replace Jarrett. We wouldn't select three receivers if we were comfortable with Jarrett as the #2. If Lafell shows promise in camp, he'll bump Jarrett. If not in Week 1, probably by Week 4.

Drafting WRs just means competition. It does not mean they plan on kicking Jarrett out. Most inexperience WRs take a couple of years to develop enough to make an impact on the football field anyway.

Yes, Jarrett isn't known to be the #2 guy just yet..but, it's open to him...starting this training camp and preseason.

Going out on a limb and say Edwards.

[MadHatter]

I don't really want to see Edwards in the slot.

I would rather see him slide to the outside in 3 receiver sets....moving Smitty into the Slot.

I think the staff still has big questions about Jarrett. However, I don't think that is the only reason we spent 3 picks on WR's in the draft.

We MUST develop a passing game to compliment Double Trouble. Having one great WR and one good WR (what we have had the past few seasons) is not enough. We need more depth at the position....and depth that can deliver.

I think we will see more 3 and 4 WR sets this season to open up the offense a little more.

Should be fun to watch.

DJ

[GreatPoupon]

dj is starter in name. lafell and edwards and maybe even Gettis will see the field significantly.

Jarrett.

An NFL playbook plays hell on rookie WR's.

If Edwards can catch on, even for a few plays, putting him on the outside, sliding SS in, and putting DJ on the other side could be pretty wild.

It better be Jarrett because I bought his jersey, and don't give me crap it was 20 bucks on ebay.

[WinnieWonka]

Lafell will be the starter on opening day and Armanti will be on the field more than Jarrett. Jarrett will only see significant playing time if someone goes down, if he is even on the team.

[CharlotteBeer.com]

I'll say Gettis, just to be different.

[Baschski]

You're right guys, our clear #1 need this off season was WR, and we drafted three WR's despite the fact that Jarrett has proven to be a capable #2 WR and the coaching staff is confident in his ability. Mmmmmmkay.

[ThunderKat]

If Jarrett can play like he did in the last game of the season last year against stronger teams 1st defense, he probably will be given a chance to start. However going off the last game of the season could be moot because New Orleans didn't need the game plus they had their 2nd team in.

It evident that Jarrett can play against a second team, but how well can he hold up against a 1st? Can't wait til pre-season, so I can see some action.

Smith has said he doesn't feel as if he has what it takes to be the number one receiver anymore.

So, I think Smith ought to be our number 2, and we need to groom a number 1!

I hope you're joking. That quote by Smith has been addressed by Smith himself in an interview or two. Also, stop linking to that shitty site please.

If it was only 20 bucks why would it matter? Admit it, you want to see Jarrett succeed (why wouldn't any Panthers fan?)!
