Starting Slot WR for the Panthers next Season?

With all the new Pilares fans on board, I wanted to see where your allegiance lies since I assume the same people crowning him the next Smitty are the same people that were all over Armanti after last years draft. Who is going to be our slot WR next year?

Smitty/Gettis/LaFell.... I think Pilares and Edwards will take some time to come around. I would have to say Edwards before Pilares though.

oh, and Pilares won't be ready until half way through the season regardless..

if the coaching staff is smart they will put Goodson in the slot... (of course I say this not knowing how well he can run a route)

I would think a decent coaching staff could help him out with that though.

Smitty may be built to play like a slot WR and it seems like a perfect fit with him being past his prime, but he has also been our #1 deep threat since he has been here. I wouldn't strictly label him a slot as long as he is our #1.

    • I think it's short sighted to judge a QB or HC in a vacuum. They both need good players to be successful. That's the GM's role. And he's young in his role too. His general experience in the league gives him a bit of an advantage/perspective that everyone doesn't have. But he still has to perfect his role as a GM.  But whether they're good or not, they are young in their roles. That is the point I was making. Could they be better at what they do? Of course. But it's hard to have early success when you have so many major areas still figuring out how to do their jobs at the same time. Asking a QB to pass for 4000 yards when neither of his 2 best WRs have played a full season is a tall task. Asking a HC to be an effective HC while he's calling plays when he's only done it for 3 years, and he has a young roster is a tall ask. Especially with a roster with so many holes and lack of talent. But that young label is definitely coming to its end. It's about time to start showing major improvements on offense, defense and coaching. Dan has had 3 drafts/offseasons to improve the roster. Dave has had 2 training camps. Bryce has had 3 seasons, though that first season was a pretty tough situation for anyone to learn, let alone have success. The QB is on the hotseat. Mostly because it's pay up or shut up time. He's ran out of time. Doesn't matter if he has reasons or not.  Not getting into the other stuff. Too many layers to pull back.
