Goodson is good, i knew that. he has developed into a little surprise this year. But really, when we have nothing to play for, i mean absolutely nothing, the supposedly "stars" come out in Carolina. Look at last year with Matt Moore, now we gotta another 'superstar' with Goodson? I like it, but if he does it again next year I will be sold.

Since we drafted goodson he showed initially that he had great hands(receiving wise) and great straight line speed. He had no power whatsoever, little vision, and barely any lateral moves.

That didn't really get too much better during preseason.

Nobody knew he would break out like he did, carrying tacklers and juking falcons/browns out of their shoes. When you're buried behind two of the best backs in the league who are the lifeblood of the team, you won't get very many chances.

There isn't anything wrong with that quote.

Besides, the only quote that will ever, EVER sum up John Fox will be the classic

"It is what it is".

Goodson is most definitely close to being an every down back, but not quite. He cannot block for poo and god forbid a team blitz against us. He has slight fumbling issues. He has already sustained a concussion, which could mean more to come. He is also very young, so there is a lot of room to improve, which he will. I don't think he will ever have that great blocking abilities, he is really just too small (and don't bring up smitty he is a freak). However Goodson NEEDS to be played in the slot, screens and TB he is a dangerous weapon and Fox does not utilize him to his fullest, I think if he was under another coach with a little less conservatism he could easily serve as an every down back.

      Noah Fant? "Perfect fix?" More like imperfect fix.

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      I've liked him since his rookie year as a prospect, but when he's been asked to play in a large capacity, he has simply not done well.   He does not really add anything, rather muddies up the room.  Fant is TERRIBLE as a blocker, a pure receiving TE.   Let's just put Tremble aside since he's PUP (although I still like him as a TE2, but yeah he's not our future starter)... Sanders has already shown better receiving skills than a Fant and has a nice ceiling.  Not to mention, he's got in-line run blocking skills.  I really want to see what he's capable of this year.  Also has a year+ experience now in Canales' offense, not to mention legit chemistry with Bryce. And after Sanders, I also imagine our staff is waiting to see how Mitchell Evans looks in camp as he's got the in-line blocking skills.  If he looks fully capable of filling in behind Sanders, then I don't see a need.  Overall, keep an eye out on early August moves.  They are usually soft indicators of how staff's view their rookie late rounders and roster overall.  This is a wait and see what the market presents and how they think their unit looks in camp.

      Every team has different needs of the backup QB.   On some teams a young hopeful makes sense and on others an old worn out dude makes sense.  We are a little more in the in-between IMO where you probably would prefer a Fields, Pickett, Howell type IMO.   So a young disappoint that you there is still some hail mary hope in.....given BY essentially was benched both seasons for performance (I know that's not the official line going into Seattle but I think most would agree he got a break and should of been benched later that year).  I know we want Bryce to be the week 17 guy all season this upcoming year.  But it's still in the reasonable thought process that the other dude could show back up.

      I wouldn't mind it if they bring him in cheap for competition. I would imagine he would vie for the 3rd TE spot with the rookie.
