If Thielen is the link to Bryce Young’s success like some of y’all seem to think then we are fuged.

But in reality Jalen Coker put up a 7 for 7 for 62 in the last game of the season and showed he can be a volume target.

We also just opened up a ton of slot snaps and for those that are unaware, yes, McMillan has played the slot and is a matchup nightmare there.

Then you factor in that we got compensation for a guy who is at the end of his career, has an injury history, and and may not even be in the league next year… I fail to see where the issue is even if the fourth round pick is in 2027.

again the 4rth will help but is it worth Bryces development if the other dudes dont step up?

If Thielen is that crucial to Bryce's "development" Bryce doesn't have any developing to do.  He just is what he is.  We've got an extremely talented receiving corps even without Thielen.  No more excuses.  Time for Bryce to perform.

Coker and Horn Jr. 

 

Told everyone they were higher in Horn then it looked. Also said that Thielen was pushing for the trade internally. So he gets what he wants and the Panthers got there 4th plus 5th. lol

Coker for sure. I see him sliding into AT's role. I didn't see much out of Horn and would've rather kept Renfrow.

why would he want out after we gave him a raise to come back.  Its probably me but something is missing in all this

Maybe him and his wife were homesick and he realized he wanted to finish his career back there? I agree it’s odd considering the contract he got here, I just don’t know what else it could be

He lined up the offense a lot and helped call out protections based on looking at tape.

You are not wrong.  But neither am I.

Honestly, if the two of them wanted out after getting a raise this offseason to come back, then I'd rather have IR'd him with a papercut and just paid him to not be able to play this year.

They only wanted out because the Vikings badly needed a WR, doesn't mean we should have bent over and let the Vikings shove their horn up our ass

That move is the kinda thing that makes FAs avoid your team, and our reputation already isn’t great.

Something changed in between when he signed the deal for this year and the present.  I don't think it's a huge leap of faith to say he's not particularly excited about this season for the Panthers.

      Dan Morgan Pre-Draft press conference

      By XClown1986 · Posted

      Here are my takeaways from the conference (IMO): - Is Dan against taking a WR 3 years in a row? No. Would that be his preference? Also, no. Not by a long shot.  - I think draft gurus are wrong. Tight end is not an early priority. They like the guys in the building enough to see them develop, but a later round guy is being looked at (just seemed like he was able to label a couple of guys "talented", but stopped short of suggesting the class is good at the top. Seemed quick to talk about the depth of the class) - If we are taking a DL, it will be in the top 2 rounds. They fall off a cliff at some point soon after. - They are targeting guys in each round. I think we are more likely to move up than down in this draft to prevent missing out on a guy. He doesn't want to give up a lot though, man loves his draft picks. - DBs are a priority. We want to come away with a safety and a nickel. Maybe even a safety that can play nickel. Thieneman sounds more and more like a real possibility, if he is there. We are taking a safety in the first 2 rounds, if I had to put money on it. - Age matters more for 1st round picks, probably (Mesidor), but not for after that (Stukes). - They have a guy or two that they want in the 1st round, but crazy things DO happen in the draft, and they may shift gears and take a different guy if someone falls that they didn't expect to be there.  - Character matters. A LOT. If a guy has character concerns of any kind, you can be pretty confident they aren't on our board. They may bring in a guy or two for a visit to gauge the validity/severity of the concern though.
