Former Miami WR Jacolby George is signing with the #Panthers on a deal that includes $215,000 guaranteed, per source. That's a larger guarantee than he would've received if drafted in the sixth round.

That is scary---they must see something I do not.

Panthers signed Miami WR Jacolby George.
George (5’11, 172) is an undersized receiver whose pro day results showed less-than-desirable speed (4.60 40-yard dash) for a player of his size. He held a starting role over each of the last two seasons, totaling 111 receptions for 1,630 yards and 16 touchdowns while averaging 14.7 YPR. He played primarily on the outside as a starter (88.8 percent snaps out wide, per PFF), but his size and lack of top-end speed are unlikely to play well on the outside at the next level. George drew several careless penalties throughout his career and was nearly dismissed from Miami after the 2023 season. He’ll likely get a chance to earn a role as a returner (20 career punt returns) wherever he lands, but there’s a lot that will need to break right for George if he hopes to earn a roster spot in the future.

Seems like an insane move to take him over Xavier Restrepo.

I won't even begin to pretend I have any idea about undrafted Centers lol.

I just see that 3 were taken in the draft and have a hard time believing there isn't some solid options out there at the position.

I am guessing the Vandy OL Steven Losoya will be tried at C.

      Be careful what you wish for

      Well, Hooker was a guy that was drafted in the 3rd round pick sitting behind a well established starter yet Detroit somehow saw enough to let him go after two offseasons.  Where does that fit into your ideal situation?

      Like that matters. That's the first thing. I suggested that it's probably better to let a QB sit and learn, and that's what I meant. Secondly, in what planet am I making excuses, my friend, or engaging in any mental gymnastics in Bryce Young's defense? As I have said, I don't care if he turns into Mighty Mouse, it's time for him to go. In my opinion, he's too short to be a successful QB in the NFL. I have seen enough. I'd rather trade him and take my chances with Hooker, at least he's more of a prototypical size and can actually see where and why he's throwing the ball.

      About that schedule.

      There is a scenario where our team comes out prepared to play football instead of shitting the bed for the first quarter. Every bad Bryce game seems to start with him looking incompetent - the OL looking incompetent - and the defense looking incompetent.  Boom, down 14 before we know what hit us. Imagine a world where we come prepared and play with a lead, and Bryce gets to fulfill his ceiling by managing a game instead of playing catch up. He's bad, but upon reflection he is not Clausen bad.  He can move the team down the field when he gets 4 - 5 seconds in a clean pocket against a soft zone.  I don't think Clausen could do that.
