New Panthers WR Clowney a quick study

Why are people comparing this guy to Dwayne Jarrett? The only thing they have in common is that they played, using that term VERY loosely, the same position.

The circumstances in his previous locations have been much different than the dynamic in Carolina the past few years where the 3rd WR slot has been vacant since we lost Rickey Proehl. Clowney comes from a team with a lot of depth at the position. He's not tall. He's not slow. Unfortunately, he's not as sure handed as Dwayne either but he should be able to make up for that with pure athleticism.... at least that's what we're banking on here.

I dare say he becomes the fastest WR on the field even with Smith. As far as two WR go, there couldn't be two other guys more different than Jarrett and Clowney. Whether or not that is a good thing remains to be seen, but honestly stop with the comparisons and evaluate the kid on what he brings instead of what the guy behind him brought.

      I’m actually fine with our TE group. I would like to see us upgrade at ILB, maybe safety and CB.   I think we are good at WR. I thought Corley could have been a good player but I guess he wasn’t doing good at all.   I came across this article about Corley from today. I know sometimes a change of scenery can really help turn around a player and we’ve seen plenty of players from the jets end up being good other places. I just don’t know if Corley is that guy.   https://www.newsweek.com/sports/nfl/jets-insider-shares-embarrassing-fact-about-malachi-corleys-release-2119816

      I was really rooting for him after seeing that video about his struggles. I always thought he was a solid and underrated player.   I thought for sure he would have made the team after hearing all the hype and how he made that overthrown catch by Plummer behind the line and still was able to gain a yard or two off it. Plummer really overthrew him each time yet he was able to still not lose yards. I think he still could play in the nfl. I think he may need a few months to get into top form though. Hopefully he will get signed to another team.
