Brandon Aiuk incoming?

I dont want to trade for any of these wide receivers deep down. If we make a trade it should be for a defensive guy. The Panthers will have success on offense by running the ball and mixing in the pass next season. No point in overpaying for another receiver right now. Just draft another guy that can bring another dynamic to the offense is the best to do.

The Panthers offense needs speed at the WR position

they don’t have it

if they trade, or draft someone, who does not have that, to take the  over the top  off the defense, it is of no value 

right now, they have possession receivers, add that speed receiver and that offense can take off

 

 

XL runs a 4.39 in the 40 yard dash.

Panthers O needs quickness to round out the rec corps.    NFL is slam full of guys that can log good 40 times when they train to run good 40 times. 

XL isn't quick and shifty.  He is powerful and fast.  We need the vintage PR style WR mixed in that can take a nothing pass and make a guy miss.

The problem is he has brick hands.

The good thing is he has this offseason to make strides improving himself in the fundamentals. Hopefully he does. If not well that's another strike for our lengthy track record with the position. That's the life of a Panthers fan.

We may have made a good call trading him. What we did with the assets is a different story…

Yeah it’s a shame the huge haul of like a second rounder we got for CMC didn’t pan out. fuging Panthers what a joke of a franchise I wish I could stop loving them.

From MVP talks and a record breaking contract to perpetually injured and on the trade block in less than 2 years. Life comes at you fast at the RB position.

That 30 year old wall for RB is only 2 years away. Probably closer to 1 after he was run into the ground here.

Except I still think he ends up turning into a slot WR to extend his career well into his mid 30's.

He keeps his body in amazing shape and he's savvy, he could very well turn into a true elite slot WR from 30-35 and be a difference maker on a contending team because of it.

It's why I always hated trading him, because I think he'll have that 2nd life in the NFL after his RB days are behind him.  He basically would turn into what Deebo has been for them the last few years, except I think he'd do it even better.

    • That's also in an era when DBs could press for 10 yards, Qbs could be hit, QBs could have players land on them, incidental contact could be made with the head etc. You can't compare bryce to players like this. What you can do is say who's done less over their first 30 starts and had more resources dedicated to them and at that point you're looking at like Joey Harrington.  At least with Joey there weren't morons in the fan base falling over themselves to compare him to players from the first year of the NFL merger. 
    • Brees had a pro bowl year in year 3. Phillip Rivers was drafted anyways and Brees went off for two more years before his shoulder was completely torn up in the last game of the 2006 season. 
    • The last time this franchise was in this much despair pre Tepper, the rumors of the banner flyover were met by the front office. They quickly worked with the disgruntled fans to quell any potential negative event occurring at the Stadium or TV. The real question is do we even have enough fans that care to get together behind a movement like this again or is our fan base too far gone that we dont care to revolt like this? Personally, I still go to games each year no matter how terrible it is, but it has went from something I spent all week looking forward to almost as enjoyable as yearly physical. We can count the blunders this franchise has made in keeping Head Coaches, General Managers and players too long. (Rivera,Rhule, Hurney, Fitterrer). Team wise we've missed out on Herbert, we didnt trade Burns for 2 1st round picks, we reached by taking Bryce who would have most likely been were we were going to draft anyway, and extended players who constantly underperformed like Ian Thomas. Even when we are gifted a chance like 2 first for Burns that we shouldnt have paid premium, we fumbled a chance to really jump start the franchise. So this is more to everyone as a whole. How much of your Soul for this team is left? Is it still there that if there was a glimmer of hope, you'd come right back or has the futility of this team negated your love for football completely?
