I can't see Allen wanting to leave the Chargers again, but if he is open to it, I think he'd be an outstanding pickup for us.

He's still a pretty good slot WR, but he's also a guy that T-Mac and Coker can really learn from, basically a Thielen type of a pro's pro, but a significantly better player than Thielen was at this point in their careers.

The one thing about Keenan Allen is that he is grew up in Greensboro and still has family in NC so maybe he may want to come back "home" to end his career.

We need to accept that XL just isn't going to be a great WR, but he could be a useful gadget guy in a role of Deebo or Cordarelle Patterson.  But it would take full buy-in from both XL and the team as he'd need to work on his return game and handoffs over downfield receiving.

XL might never reach his full potential here but I think he does have a legitimate shot at becoming a pretty good #2-3. We knew when we picked him that he was raw but his athletic traits were hard to pass on. 

I still remember coming here and telling 85% of huddlers to not give up on DB yet after his first couple of years here. 

I just knew DB was going to special. I wouldn't put XL in that exact same category but I wouldn't write him off yet. I think our playcalling is also working against his strengths. 

At the very least, we should have a servicable #3 receiver w/ speed between XL, Horn Jr, and Meetchie.

Panthers fans will see a guy who had more production last year than all but 1 of our WRs combined and say "no thanks he sucks"

He doesn't suck. But still no thanks. They could use the money more wisely spent in other area's. I think wr is way down on the list of where they urgently need to upgrade.
