I know it's a little early but...Lafell, A.E., D. Thomas, and later Charley Martin

I know I'm probably getting a little too excited too early, but could this turn into a situation where the more talented will beat out the talented instead of the less suck beating out the suck?

I can't help but ponder the possibility that in the end we may already have the WR's we have been waiting for and if today was an indication, it's just going to take some time for them to work themselves into the job. And if that's the case....what happens with the guys above?

I know Charley Martin is done for the year, but let's not forget he showed by far the most potential out of all of our rookies this year.

Gettis earned his spot today, so imo he's a lock, for at least a couple of more starts. But what of Devin Thomas and LaFell? Who gets the number 3? And where does that leave Armanti Edwards? Is he just going to be stuck as a Wildcat "specialist"?

How about draft day? Do we still go for a high profile WR? I think there are more questions after today than before.

PS: I forgot about Dante Rosario. He may still be an option too.

I don't believe Charley Martin is a rookie and he also lacks the upside of Gettis, LaFell, and even Edwards. He had a good camp but his injury problems may have cost him his potential job.

By the time Gettis and LaFell have 16 games under their belts Martin will look like an awful option. It would be a huge victory if he could make the team.

Martin isn't a rookie and hasn't done anything in his career as a Panther to suggest that he's any good. That's not to say he doesn't have potential, but we don't really have any reason right now to think he'll even make the team next year. Lafell earned the #3 spot today, but Thomas may have the talent to push him for it. Clowney can probably help on special teams but, unless he can beat out Thomas, probably won't stick. Edwards still needs to develop, so we'll see on him.

Right now I'm just pumped that we have two great receivers as starters.

Your right martin isn't a rookie and would not have made the team if Wallace Wright didn't get hurt in the Tenn. game.

    • Not sure who said it first, but Tepper is the correct answer. Still, I'm gonna go with Kasay keeping it inbounds. If, you subscribe to the butterfly effect version of time travel consequences.... When we win SBXXXVIII everybody's lives change: Moose never breaks his leg, We win it all again in 05. Tommy Jone is unknown and Peppers stays home, Champs once more 2008. No artificial pig heart turning JR into a creepy weirdo, no lockout, no Clausen. Fox and Jake ride off into the sunset on their own terms. No 2-14, no #1 pick. But, no laptop, no Blinn, 3 years behind The Golden Calf of Bristol, we still get Cam. JR let's him grow his locs like he always wanted, Smitty sees Cam in a new light. Dreads swinging, (and Smitty with his 3 Lombardis behind him) Cam is old enough to get those calls. No Manning narrative, Cotchery TD, PI against Talib on Philly Brown, 10,000 RTP calls and Kony Ealy SB50 MVP. No Jeans Fridays, no Tepper. KB doesn't slip on his own meatsweat mid-route in SD, Cam becomes the 1st QB to win 10 straight SBs. Retiring after being elected 47th president of the US of A, Cam ushers in the Permanent Proletarian Revolution across the globe, Xi Jinping bows in awe. "ẄøŘƙƐṛ§ őF ŧĤə ŵØRłð, ŮŊÏŦƐ!!!"
    • Yeah your right the owner was copping hand shandies while all this was going down 
    • I mean not surprised the Patriots took him in and aren't trying to push him out. They've been the most morally bankrupt team in the NFL for a long while. Wouldn't be surprised if Vrabel has his own dirt on Kraft/Brady and other assholes from that organization over the last couple decades.
