Trent Guy and Mike Goodson

I think Goodson locked down the kick returner job last night (and he earned it). That return looked a lot like the Steve Smith TD against the Texans in '07. (Steve's was way more badass)

But as for punt returner, Guy catches the ball well, unlike the other dready punt returner the Panthers have been trying out. He also has some good speed and when he had a little room, showed he could break out. I'd like to see him get the punt return job, but he's almost sure to be cut. It's a shame, because he's looked far better as a receiver and punt returner than Armanti.

I've been on the Goodson band wagon since they drafted him. He reminds me of a young Westbrook. Edwards looked good last night. Caught everything thrown his way, and the smoke play was oh so Smitty like, even threw in a stiff arm.

I still don't think there's anyway we keep Guy, though I wish we could.

I'm a Goodson fan, too. It's funny that just a few days ago several Huddle members were advocating keeping Vaughan over Goodson. What a difference a day makes.

Goodson didn't look bad last preseason. He fumbled a couple of times and, as a result, Fox benched him in favor of Sutton. I wish we could work him in as a slot receiver a bit.

I agree the numbers are just not in Guys favor. I really think he showed he could contribute but IMO Capt will be our PR guy once again.

I can't believe anyone seriously wants (or wanted) to keep Vaughan over Goodson. Glad I didn't see any of that...

I just love how everyone was so impressed with Goodson last offseason, but then when preseason of last year hit and Goodson fumbled a couple balls away, everyone gave up on him.

Then everyone was excited for Sutton (and rightly so), and everyone forget about Goodson. And really no one has mentioned him much on this forum until that return.

It really is a "what have you done for me lately" league.

    • Yep. I was hoping for and calling for a day three guy. But I didn’t research the position to say if we should or should‘t have jumped at a particular guy at a particular spot.    And everything I read said it was a poor draft for RBs depth wise. I guess when Seattle takes a backup RB in the 1st, that kind of backs that up.    I definitely think we should keep 4 running backs and if King can play well enough then keep him too.    I believe I heard Canales say we are a running team (talking about drafting a WR he will be needing to block as well as catch). Well if we are gonna be a running team by identity we don’t need to stock the WR room to overflowing. If one room has to sacrifice, it should not be the RB room given our circumstances. 
    • If there's a pattern I'm definitely picking up from Dan and company is a philosophy of making trades where we try not to sacrifice the number of draft picks we have by day's end. In other words, we're not giving up three picks for one, or giving up a future pick to make a pick today. And even if we give up something at the start, we make trades later to make up for that initial loss. Here's how it stacked up for 2026: How we started: 19, 51, 83, 119, 158, 159, 200 How we ended: 19, 49, 83, 129, 144, 151, 227 (no future picks sacrificed) Ultimately, we moved up two spots in the second to ensure we got someone we coveted, gave up a few spots for our fourth round pick, but then had better picks in the 5th (and got really good value out of them), and had a worse 7th rounder which isn't that big of a loss anyways.  At this point, we can question who they draft, but they're pretty good maneuvering across the draft board.
    • I just saw the funniest thing...or very disappointing, depending how you handle misery. A guy on YouTube did a 2027 'way too early' mock draft.  If I told you the simulator has the Panthers selecting in the top 10 , what would you say?  If I told you it was pick #8 and only two QBs were taken in the top 7, what would you say?  If I told you this dude had us taking a defensive player, what would you say?
