Darin Gnatt thinks Kenny Moore will replace Smitty at the start of camp

I'm guessing Kenny Moore replaces Smith with the ones to start camp. Big chance for Kenny, good chance to evaluate for Panthers.

Moore is a better option than Jarrett, I think. I'd like to see Moore and Lafell with the ones and Edwards in the slot. Jarrett can hand out water bottles IMO.

[KillerKat]

Really think Jarrett gets cut and K.Moore stays. Think about if Jarrett goes down during the regular season. We have Lafell and Gettis to replace him and they could probably do a better job. If Smith goes down, you think they'll start Edwards right away? I don't. Either that or we cut Goodson or Sutton or CJ Wilson (unlikely cause that'll leave only 4 CBs excluding Witherspon because he's just a returner/ST guy) to keep 6 WRs.

[MadHatter]

The only reason I would like to see Moore with the ones is that Jarrett and LaFell provide NO speed. Would rather have Moore and Edwards able to stretch the field....with LaFell and Jarrett fighting it out for the #2 spot as the big blocking WR.

Moore and Lafell with the ones

Edwards in the slot, and with the twos along with Gettis

Jarrett is the journyman who eats up a roster spot and is more than likely deactivated on gameday.

[DickolausJ]

LaFell is a lot more explosive then Jarrett, make no mistake of that.

[BF91]

Doesn't really surprise me. Moore and Edwards are the most "Smitty-like" of our WRs, and since Armanti is a rookie, Moore is getting the nod for camp.

[DaCityKats]

great chance for k moore to rep Da City. and i think LaFell is no slouch his game speed is a lot faster than what his 40 times says.

[panthers55]

I suspect that Jarrett and Moore wil open with the 1s. Lafell and Edwards will play with the 2s and the rest of them will play with the 3s. Who ends up playing with Smith will depend on pre-season and who shows up.

[necroplasm]

If he produces and doesn't get cut, Jarrett will be the possession receiver. That's all he's really ever been on the field as a Panther.

[Gscottnc5]

Kenny is not that fast but runs the hell out of a route. At WF he was a surgeon on the field and even back at Butler HS he showed the smarts to get open. That's what will set KM apart. I see Kenny as more of a possession receiver, IMO. AE, Lafell, Gettis have the speed. Jarrett has the size, no speed and no brain when it comes to football knowledge. I'm sure he is a nice guy but it's his 3rd year? and still hasn't proven himself with the coaching staff.

[panthers55]

Just so we can make some comparisons here are the 40 times for our receivers:

Moore 4.51

Jarrett 4.62

LaFell 4.58

Geddis 4.47

Edwards 4.41

Trent Guy 4.55

Dexter Jackson 4.27

Charly Martin 4.58

Wallace Wright 4.50

Seems to me there are three groups based on speed. Jackson. Edwards are super fast. The next group includes Gettis, Wright and Moore. Then we have Martin, Jarrett, LaFell and Guy.

We have a lot of guys in the 4.5- 4.6 range.

[ItsNotGonnaBeAlright]

Speed has never been the chief concern for a Fox team. Emphasis is always placed on physicallity.

[Dpantherman]

i wouldn't even call Dexter Jackson a reciever. i call him a fast guy.
