Well it looks like my boy Gettis is going to be our number 1 receiver, and while this is more of a comment on the sorry state of or receiving core it's pretty substantial for a guy who a lot of people on this board thought was surley bound to the PS.

Gettis might be our best reciever and might very well be a dominant reciever in the NFL down the line but right now on a team with good options he would probably be relegated to the 5th or 6th spot.

Dwayne Jarret is cut after this year. Lafelle has been so underwhelming its silly. And Edwards might very well pleaseantly suprise some people but like our other two rookies he needs a year or two.

With Smith hurt the leading candidate for number #1 receiver in 2010 might very well be Mike Goodson. And while it is almost certain that the Panthers have the worst receiving core in 2010 the real question is if it is the worst recieving core in the last ten years, or perhaps all time?

    • Plus he was in the era in which Safety, LBs, and CBs could de-cleat WRs/TEs on crossing routes. He was beyond tough too. Plus those numbers his 4.66 40 time etc....... GameDay with 15 LBs of pads/clothes/tape, he was the fastest guy on the field. In fact I never recall at any point Rice being ran down or "hawked" from behind by any player. He was a gamer and clutch, just like lex Lugar the total package. 
    • Not all talent can be measured with a ruler and stopwatch. His hands, body control, and skills were ELITE. 
    • He did have talent, but if you look at his combine/workout numbers...they are not eye popping like many of the combine freaks are. All the best have talent, smarts, and work ethic. What he was able to do in his 40s, he holds all the records after 40. He had two 1k seasons at 39 and 40, no other WR has 1k after 36. He came back from a ACL tear within 9 months after he turned 35 years old. You know this is the era where ACl was a career derail-er and it took most mortal men took a full 12 months and they were never the same. Only two other players have made catches at that age (40) and neither one was a wide receiver. LOL at Tom being one of them....   I also read or heard, he would have still played if not for ST. He was going to play for the broncos in 2006, I think he would have been 44???, he earned a spot as the #4-6 but the numbers game of having WRs play ST ended his career. He could still get open and play, just no sense in having the GOAT run head first into a wedge on KO duties.....
