Available WRs... Ideas/Favorites?

Obviously, many of us still think WR is the weakest position on the team, and rightfully so.

I'm guessing Martin would be the first guy let go for another WR if we brought one in, or the guy closest to the cut line at any other position.

Here's my best candidates so far:

Matt Jones

Desmon Briscoe }Both from Bengals

Troy Williamson } Jags

Jason Hill } 49ers

Demetrius Williams } Ravens

Marko Mitchell } Vikings

All I got for now...

Although some fans have been calling for the Panthers to add a No. 2 receiver from outside the organization to help Steve Smith it doesn’t look like that’s going to happen.

In fact, Hurney seems content to stick with what they have. The plan is to develop the young receivers they drafted.

“A lot of people I’ve talked to in the fan base are excited about our youth and the energy it brings and watching the development,” Hurney said. “Everybody has different opinions but we feel good about our team in general and the young players we have and their skill level. It all begins next week and we’ll see how it goes.”

I don't understand why people keep calling for the Panthers to bring somebody in from the outside.

Do you really think that Housh is going to get the invite to come over and play after we cut so many players that were 30+? Teams adhere strictly to their philosophy, and Fox definitely sticks to his guns.

Not happening. We've got 6 on the roster. Between DJ/LaFell/Gettis, we're bound to find a #2. I wouldn't be surprised if Armanti got a little bit more action as the season goes. I would be concerned if we were a pass first offense, but we've got DWill and JStew in the backfield. If they're not getting it, Smitty is. The TE's are getting more love in the pass game as well, so that's another group to compete with in order to get touches. Going out and spending money on old hats when we've already got some perfectly ones that need to be broken in chilling on the rack is a bit... silly?

    • Actually that 4400 was based on a 16 game season to match Bryce's 16 games this year. Your offense has to be to drive the ball when it matters. Bryce doesn't do that with any level of consistency. If you're building a team that isn't focused on your QB, then fine. Then there's no need to pay Bryce as a franchise QB because literally anyone else will do. If you're going to pay him 50m plus per season, you have to be able to put the team on his shoulders and know he's going to carry the load. So far, when the pressure is on to get it done, Bryce has fallen miserably short of the target. 4-6 to finish out the season and 0-2 when all we need is a win to secure a playoff spot isn't stepping up and proving yourself as a franchise QB. I'd say it's quite the opposite.  There isn't a single coach in this league that would take Bryce over Burrow and very few if any that would take Bryce over Prescott. Hurts didn't have to throw in 2025 because Philly's defense was disgusting and Saquan had a MVP season. But then again, Hurts has shown that he can when it counts, and then there's his signature. Philly runs the tush push to lethal perfection, but that's a play we can't even consider with Bryce. You used 3 QBs from teams that had no defense to show QB stats don't always matter. When we had the worst defense in the NFL, we didn't see Bryce step up and carry the offense and put up gaudy numbers in a losing season because we were playing catch up. It was pretty much the opposite.  What have we seen from Bryce consistently to consider offering him a top 10 NFL franchise QB level contract? At the end of the day, that's all that matters.   
    • I mean, what fanbase has high expectations when you have a QB like Bryce leading your team?
    • If you pay Bryce $50M a year you greatly limit your ability to put the type of team around him you need to have to have a chance to win. THAT is the problem. Hell, we can't win with him on a rookie contract. How the hell are we supposed to start winning with him paying him like a franchise QB and having to make tough roster decisions to accommodate his cap hit?
