Smitty's broken arm has been a blessing in disguise...

we need someone who is a big downfield blocker who can also make the big catch.

now....if we do move kenny into the X position then we could move smith into the slot where he'd rather be. if we are going to have a lot of 3 receiver sets anyway (which it sounds like is going to be the case) then this would make sense.

my question is still....does kenny have the jets to be that downfield threat?

Not sure, but to his credit. He has burned everyone lined up against him in camp. Gamble and Marshall were both burned by him.

4. Gosh, Kenny Moore just keeps pouring it on. Moore beat Richard Marshall deep for a touchdown during one-on-one drills. A little while later he caught a ball downfield and did a spin move leaving Marshall in the dust again. Moore has been impressive.

9. We’ve been riding Dwayne Jarrett pretty good, but he did do a little better in practice today making a few nice catches. Still, I think he’s being out performed by Moore and Brandon LaFell. As coach John Fox said of LaFell, “He definitely fits.”

I really dont think he has the burst needed to be a down field threat. He is no more then a slot WR if you ask me.

Kenny Moore was far and away the best receiver out there today. Not even close.

I think really he should be. Besides Jarrett everyone is a Rookie. I dont expect Rookies to come out blazing not even 1st round picks. Playing WR in the NFL is very hard but they should be caching up by end of camp. If not then I will be worried.

I think you could see K. Colberts rookie year type of production from Kenny, just a little more explosive. I don't think he has the same raw speed that Smith has. I think you could maybe put Lafell and Moore outside on 3 WR sets and then let Smitty go in the slot.

If Edwards can catch up thats when Smith will be dangerous in the Slot. Edwards is the only one that has the raw speed to take coverage away from Smith Deep.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tepper's Chest Hair · Posted

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
