It's crazy how much I've heard about his size and speed. I've never seen him play like he has size and I've never seen him show breakaway speed. He looks as average as it gets for an NFL WR when it comes time to run a route and carry the ball.

Watching him do drills and run routes is impressive. When he’s on the field it disappears, looks like Funchess. Always runs super stiff and his hands have like a 1/2 second delay from his eyes. If he could ever figure it out he would be great. Morgan did mention that he thought it may take him a while to develop since it took him a while in college. Maybe they are just being patient.

I mean I can see it, but I've never had a bias towards him.  Better QB play and we probably would see better results from him.

The Panthers still have a spot for Legette in the lineup when they play three-wide sets, but he has fallen behind Tetairoa McMillan and Jalen Coker in terms of priorities and production for Carolina. And there's no reason why GM Dan Morgan would keep that spot open if the Panthers can find an upgrade this offseason. Legette is owed $4.4 million over the next two years, all of which is guaranteed, and he has a potential fifth-year option in 2028 that would come up for a decision after the 2026 season.

Carolina was willing to give up on Mingo, a top-40 pick, after only 24 games when the right trade offer emerged. I suspect it would be similar for Legette this offseason.

As much as I want him gone i think we need to give him 1 more year. The coaching staff need to take a new approach with teaching him the fundamentals though

Absolutely. If we are talking about a 20 year old youngster.

He's a grown-ass man, and he doesn't know what his job entails or how to do it?

Maybe he will be better next year!

It's the Panther way.

      Exactly.  You let him play out next season and continue to develop Thorton.  Jackson’s earned his next contract, but his age and the risk of tying up such a large portion of the payroll at one position leads me to believe that we’ll let him walk. In all likelihood, we’ll draft another CB, or two, and bring in some journeymen to fill the roster void, between now and the start of the 2027 season.  That’ll create more balance financially across the roster enabling us to invest in other areas.

      I’m just not impressed with these hires/openings

      As far as the NFCS … I think this division will be hotly contested the next couple of years.   I am tending to pay more respect to both Atlanta and the Saints n terms of how strong they will be moving forward, than not.    I am mixed on Ryan but think they have a decent roster to start with. I don’t think he blundered hiring Stefanski. And that offense can be dangerous with a QB. Plus, defense is arrow up. No 1st round pick, WB issues will dull their effectiveness. Question is, to what degree?   I think Moore is going to be a good HC and can overcome tape that people have on Shough. They need a lot but they were playing with people. Just the way you want to see all the way to the end.    Not sure about Tampa they have Mayfield but I don’t think they can maintain their success and Bowles is not going to last much longer. They have to go through all that. Gonna be tough once it starts. Might already have started.    For us I feel pretty good about Morgan. But less so about our offense, we have some short term RB and OL issues and those things are critical given what we are working with at QB.  Overall, mixed. Like a lot of what I see but some major question marks remain.
