Yep, just read it... nothing new really. Brooks pretty much just sums up our offseason so far, which is information we all pretty much know already. Although, I liked his insight to the wide receiver position battle... he seems to think Lafell will beat out Jarrett for the #2 spot. Which, I'm not completely against. I'm rooting for Jarrett, but to have two burners, and one having height over defenders would just be down right wonderful.

Which leads me to the 3 day passing camp where Fox focused on 3 and 4 wide receiver sets. Does this mean we're gonna change our offense all together? Will it be some form of run 'n' shoot??? I watched an old episode of "Friday Night Lights" (the tv show) and in that episode, this guy was trying to convince the coach to switch from a west coast style of offense to a spread or run 'n' shoot style of offense, and the coach replied, "You've got to have the right pieces for that kind of offense." Which makes me ponder... do we have the right tools for a run 'n' shoot kind of offense now?

Lafell: 40 time: 4.58 40 low: 4.50 40 High: 4.67 (http://www.nfldraftscout.com/ratings/dsprofile.php?pyid=57233&draftyear=2010&genpos=wr)

Dwayne Jarrett runs a 4.62 40-yard dash

Should I add more?

Are you trying to say neither one of them are burners? Cause 40 yard dashes mean nothing in the NFL once you're on the field. It's a great measuring tool, but most NFL coaches will tell you that it's all about the speed once they're on the field, in pads, going against a defender. And when I watch highlight reels of Lafell, he definitely shows potential to become a burner in the NFL. We all know Jarrett isn't a burner, but a damn good possession receiver, which is still a commodity that the Panthers are looking for out of the bunch.

I love how more than half of the Panthers' fans don't have confidence in their team and their players. Just baffles me as to why we have a team in the first place.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By strato · Posted

      To start with, you wouldn’t want to count up that value chart. You would see quickly where that is headed. But you basically did a quantity comparison, while ignoring quality.  I am looking at 2023 as the start, because it became all about Bryce.  2023 you have 4 picks plus DJ Moore for offense vs 2 (80 and 145) for defense.  2024 you got the 1st overall, the 32, the 46 and the 101 for offense vs 72, 157, 200 and 240 for defense. Leave the FA IOL out of it. Which was a crazy big  investment. But it wasn’t draft.  Anyway, that is basically 4 top 100 picks for offense and 4 picks for defense in 2024. Except they were 2 first rounders, the second rounder, and the 4th was really high at 101. Vs 72 and day three stuff. Please….  Second quoted/bolded… See you think we hate Bryce. That isn’t it at all. It is nice easy way to characterize us and discredit our talking points though.   Me, I do mostly hate watching him play. But I don’t hate the person. I hate the hell out of the stanning.  It started with the very first question I asked about his footwork, arm strength, and size. Height being the principle objection. I never even got to the durability factor. There was plenty without factoring that in.  But there was rabid opposition to even asking the question of what a couple of small fractions of a second extra closing time would do for the defenders.  What the extra time it takes to flip the hips would do vs a pass rush or on the other end after the ball is in the air. Split second more for recognition where it is going for the DBs.  The tippy toe backpedal.  That poo was a mess and it has always been mess but no Bryce fan wanted to hear it. “Go get another team to root for”. “It worked in the SEC it will be fine in the NFL you don’t know football you are just a hater”.  It got worse when the real games started. It has never stopped. It is nice that many people have left that train so there is less abuse but it hasn’t stopped.  So whatever…

      Whatever school you attended, I don't know and I don't care, but I would suggest demanding a refund.    Something was completely missed there.

      The draft capital since since 2023 has in no way been pretty even.  Especially when you zero in on day 1 and day 2 draft picks.  Draft capital has vastly gone toward the O over D.
