So:

1. McMillan

2. Coker

3. Legette

4. Tremayne

5. Metchie

6. Horn

7. Moore

8. Likely draft pick (depending what round)

Yeah Legette is gone. Dan isn’t parting with Tremayne, too good of blocker, and Canales isn’t parting with Moore.

Metchie won’t make the final roster tbh.

Metchie had a great year when Bryce won the heisman.  He gives the Panthers some deep options.  He does not have to catch passes if he can keep the safeties honest, but I expect him to post his highest numbers here.  I imagine he is signing for vet min, and probably was coerced by Bryce.  

I have not given up on XL like some here, but I am frustrated and pissed off about his play.  

I now doubt we draft a WR, but there are so many uncertainties (Coker's health, XL's play, Metchie, etc). 

XL needs to spend a couple weeks with BY and learn each other. I think XL will do what's right this off-season, cause its fork in panther career time....

I feel like XL is square peg round hole with Bryce.  I feel like he could thrive with a QB who pushes the ball down field and can throw a slant

And yet, the Jets didn't even tender him a RFA offer.  

Yet another reason I don't love this, if the Jets don't think he's good enough to keep around given their WR needs, then why do we think he is?

RFA tender? Didn’t he get traded on his rookie contract? That wasn’t an option, right?

Competition in a WR room with only 2 viable starters (imo).  Maybe he makes the team better.  Maybe hes not here in September.  I dont know.  

This seems like the appropriate response to this signing.

I am putting Horn over Metchie, who hasn’t done squat in 3 seasons except bounce around. 

Horn ain't done squat to be honest. Metchie seems like the better all-around prospect. If nothing else, he should be able to move the chains whenever he's in.

How many teams in three years, yet still available? His numbers suck. I am, independently of Horn, calling him the equivalent of a 4AAA baseball prospect. 
I guess now he is supposed to me my 4AAA prospect. Fine.

What?!?!

Say you think he can turn into something at some point, but this is a whole lot of praise for someone with less than 700 yards across 3 seasons of his career.

If he was remotely close to being the 3rd best WR on our team right now, the Jets wouldn't have let him walk without tendering him the RFA offer.

Numbers don't tell the story all the time. How much PT and targets do you think Jimmy Horn, Legette or Tremaine would have gotten on Philly or the Texans? He's much better than them if you watch him play.

TMac is probably the only Carolina WR that would have gotten on the field in Houston or Philadelphia. Everyone else is cut in training camp. Coker is actually pretty good but it would have been a numbers game for a UDFA in training camp. Remember we waived him and he cleared waivers to come back to the practice squad.

Okay. Help me apply that to Metchie being a 4AAA. 
 

PS Also, do you reckon Coker would clear waivers today? Metchie might. 
 

PSs I’ll stop I just didn’t want the guy. Maybe he can change my mind.

      Jim Caldwell out

      By strato · Posted

      I may be way off base, let’s include this in that questions thread, but with the way the offensive staff turned on each other in 2023 I am happy to see anyone involved, gone. I had a bad feeling about Caldwell over it.

      Rasheed Walker for Kris Jenkins Jr.

      By Swaggasaurus · Posted

      No poo tho you might could Jenkins for Legette. They got nothing at WR after the big 2 in Cincy. I don’t think you trade away OL depth. Could get a quality player in cuts. Really that 3-4 end spot what you should be looking for is someone who is stout with long arms and can push back the OL in both the run and pass game for others to make plays…. But we signed Wharton, sometimes I think Evero is a fraud ass nerd who should be an analyst at best.

      you would honestly probably do Monroe Freeling more of a disservice by putting him in a position where is not yet ready to succeed. .we all knew Monroe Freeling struggled at the NFL combine in drills because of technique related issues & would need time to develop  & now all of a sudden before they even put the pads on Monroe Freeling is somehow a starting LT in the NFL ? if he struggled at the NFL scouting combine what do you actually think is going to happen in a live NFL game at LT ? .even our best LT of all time was not ready to start at LT when he was a rookie & he turned out to be a pretty good darn LT by the name of Jordan Gross ...just saying be patient Young Jedis
