Horn had 14 punt returns in 4 years.   I think way too many people are crediting him for having this ST upper hand that doesn’t really exist 

89 had 72 in just 2 years at Utah. 

NFL punt returners are a different breed.  Gets hard to predict who can handle it.  Didn’t DJ Moore buckle under the pressure with his attempts? 

I do like Horn’s potential though.  He is the most unique WR on the roster vs the rest of the group.  But 6th round WRs are generally that for a reason 

Certainly not a lot, and certainly not a lock.

I think he won't stay on the PS for long if they put him there. They got to find a place for him.

From Darin Gantt:

Play of the day: Hunter Renfrow keeps making plays

"Panthers head coach Dave Canales almost shrugged when asked about the sequence and Renfrow's first week in camp..."

"I mean, it's just the Hunter Renfrow I remember," Canales said. "So he looks healthy, and I think everyone who's watched football over the last four or five years remembers what he looks like. And he's really playing at top form right now. I'm really excited to have him here and to have his family, which is right down the road here after this practice to be able to just connect with him.

"And it's a great story that's unfolding right in front of our eyes, so it's really exciting to see him playing out there."

More and more evidence. But you non-believers keep thinking what you're thinking...

if healthy, he is not going to be #6 in reality

Can we trade Thielen for a depth CB or LB? He and Renfrow are redundant on this roster.

He is not wrong though. If any team would give us a defensive piece worth acquiring for AT you have to jump on that.

Top 3 should be Tet, XL, Coker, Renfrow is younger and cheaper, if he is healthy probably offers more upside as well.

No way you keep old butterfinger Moore over Horn. 

I would release Moore early see if he can get on with another team.

I agree. I just don't know what the market looks like for him. I mean WR trades the last few years the returns are minimal. Even a guy like Hopkins who is 33 only got a 5th in return when he was traded to the Chiefs last year. Unfortunately I feel it's likely at the end of the day that we are virtually the only team valuing Thielen the way we do.

We wont trade him anyway, even if he had a market.

I really dont see the need for him to see the field all that often though.

Gotta wait for some preseason games but sounds like Horn hitting waivers could be risky. Moore would probably be on the couch waiting for a spot to open due to injury. Gonna depend on how the return game looks in preseason as well, if Horn gets some time back there
