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?

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
