I'm not going to get toooverly invested in him. He played for one of the top passing offenses in college. 4th in yards and 2nd in passing tds and had 440 yds and 1 TD. He was their 4th receiver..

Be great if can repeat those numbers and be a returner here.

 

Panthers are going to have a problem that other teams have, there's only one ball.... All the 1st rounder WRs/others, TEs, and the 3 deep RB room..... I swear targets will be slim pickings weekly. 

 

I like horn lots more after watching his routes, plus he's got the missing piece to the rec group- deep speed. Fact is he was the 208th pick in a weak draft, he was already on notice. I think he will be a team player this season and stick on the 53 with week of inactives mixed in with some 3recs 40 yards games. 

Like the rock says "Know your role", I believe horn does and will happily wait his turn and do what's needed on ST. I feel etienne will win the main returner role, but horn should put up a good fight until the roster is set.

He feels like a Doug Baldwin the Panthers version. 

But don't mind me, I am huffin the panther fumes and horn is one of my main targets to get high... I had to, cause I have no UDFA to champion this year.

He sure is getting a lot of love for a sixth rounder.  I see the potential.  I love our WR room now....Love it.  Love it more than a man should.

I am waiting for the focus to turn to Ransom--if you consider value and round, I am more excited about Princely and Ransom that I am any other picks. 

I also like the TE room.  They are going to surprise some folks.

      JJ Jansen on tanking

      Sure, there's definitely a chance that a fire sale in 2022 could've paid off but I don't think that's a certainty. It's not just about stockpiling the picks and bettering odds; it's about hitting on those picks, having a stable coaching staff to develop them, and keeping the locker room engaged. We didn't exactly have a model front office nor stable coaching staff in 2022. It's worth noting that part of the reason that DJ had to be included in the trade up for #1 was because the Bears needed an immediate, proven WR1 to help Fields. It was him or another immediate first-round pick, not a future one like what was being offered for Burns (whom teams knew that things were shaky with and that they could afford to wait). As for the Eagles, they recovered because the foundation was already in place. Pederson got flak and was ultimately fired (and was just fired again this offseason from the Jags). Their recovery was quick because the foundation was already in place: Howie Roseman and a solid roster (that included a stacked OL, a second year QB, and a veteran defense). Philly had a margin of error that just wasn't available to Carolina. I'm not against using the draft to rebuild, but a full-on teardown comes with real consequences: fan disengagement, a fractured locker room, poor development, a losing environment... and I don't believe that we had the necessary leadership at the time to cleanly navigate it. That's a gamble that I want no part of.  Now that we do have a staff that seems to be in complete alignment and building for the future rather than fighting for their jobs, I'm more inclined to observe their process and see where it leads rather than backseat driving with "perfect" hindsight.

      I see it a bit differently considering there is only 20M in cap space. Given how many of the premium positions are on rookie contracts their cap should not be nearly maxed out. Tillis still has a lot of work to do before these rookies will need a second contract.
