A little David Gettis love

Carolina Panthers

WR David Gettis(notes) – A sixth-round pick in 2010, Gettis could become the Panthers’ No. 1 wide receiver. He started 13 games in his rookie campaign and made 37 catches for 508 yards (13.7 average), and he did that with an awful situation at quarterback. Gettis was one of the few bright spots for Carolina during its 2-14 season. While it’s not certain Steve Smith will be traded, it appears likely that he will be playing elsewhere whenever the 2011 season begins, clearing a spot at the top of the WR depth chart. If Cam Newton(notes) or whoever lines up under center outdoes Jimmy Clausen’s(notes) 2010 performance, Gettis should have no trouble exceeding his production. He’s a vertical threat and the 6-foot-3, 216-pound Gettis has a great combination of size and speed. He still has to become more consistent and work on his hands to improve as a pass-catcher, but he could be in the conversation in discussions regarding the best young receivers in the league by the end of the season.

Been a Gettis supporter and fan since he began making noise in training camp last season. Was impressed with his route-running ability and the dude has some speed without a doubt. I am really looking forward to watching this kid play this season, both him and Lafell could become great for us. However, we have had receivers in the past do well early in their careers only to fall off.

11&12.

I remember a really long thread with people saying he wouldn't even make the team and a lot of us trying to convince so many otherwise about DG. People thought Wright, that white guy, or Edwards was gonna beat him out haha

Gettis, Hardy, & Martin were all bright spots last year in my eyes with Gettis glimmering like vega on a sh!t team

      Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.

      Well, seeing as we play the Lions at home this year, pretty sure that rumor isn't true.
