If we sign a FA WR


Panthro

and AE is not activated will you consider his selection a complete failure? With Mike Williams and Geno Atkins on the board when we traded up I certainly would.
it depends on if they weren't planning on him being a factor until next year anyway.

i don't think you can really judge players, esp. WRs and QBs, on their rookie year.

it takes most WRs a few years to be NFL ready.

Edwards wasn't drafted to be starting WR in 2010.

but with what we gave up he was expected to contribute

you dont give up a 2nd rounder for a player that you expect to deactivate most of the season

there are plenty of WRs who were drafted after him who are getting plenty of clock, yet AE hasnt seen a snap yet. nobody expects him to be a starter but with what we gave up, we expect him to be out there making catches

Considering the pick isn't technically used until next year, I believe you have to at least give it until the end of said year to make a judgement.

The real question is, did we really need another "Panthro hates on AE" thread?

We have 2 Wide Receivers out. If we don't activate him and he sees the field then he was a garbage selection and the FO now believes it too.

Name a WR we have selected under Fox that panned out?

    • not sure if any of this is news, but a good summary of our situation heading into training camp.  It's sure gonna be good getting Derrick back. After missing virtually all of the 2024 season, Panthers defensive tackle Derrick Brown is aiming for a full return to the field during training camp later this summer, per Joseph Person of The Athletic. Brown tore his meniscus in Week 1 and underwent season-ending surgery that has kept him limited through spring practices, though he did participate in “walk-throughs and light side work” during mandatory minicamp, according to Person. Brown originally stated a desire to be ready for the 2025 regular season, but his timeline appears to have moved up. Brown’s injury was particularly disappointing after a career-best 2023 season. He led all defensive linemen with 103 total tackles and was named to his first Pro Bowl, earning him a four-year, $96MM extension from the Panthers in April 2024. While he has never been a prolific pass rusher, Brown’s size and power has consistently commanded double-teams and created opportunities for his teammates. His impact was evident last season, as Carolina’s run defense ranked dead-last in his absence. The Panthers spent significant resources this offseason on defensive line depth, which should allow them to manage Brown’s usage more carefully coming off a major injury. He played a whopping 940 defensive snaps in 2023 (89% of the team’s total) and was on the field for almost every play before his injury last year. With new teammates Tershawn Wharton, Bobby Brown III, and Cam Jackson ready to share the load, Derrick Brown can take a lower snap share to stay fresh and healthy for the entire season.

    • Yeah it's kind of like they don't want him on the team anymore for some reason
