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

      Greg Cosell: Bryce Young is a complimentary piece

      By *FreeFua* · Posted

      As far as elite/elevate talent QB’s It’s Allen Mahomes Jackson and Burrow that’s it.  Then we have tiers and those can be debated all day Dak is a good QB but I know this board would want him out of Charlotte if he was the QB here. 2 playoff wins in 10 years. Justin Herbert no playoff wins. Threw 4 interceptions in last years playoff game. 23 TD passes last year. 20 the year below and 25 the year before that. This board loves stats without context and these stats aren’t saying they’re much above complimentary  Kyler Murray isn’t good. I’m not sure how he made this list.  Caleb Williams, Trevor Lawrence both benefiting from some real good offensive coaches right now. They’re both complimentary pieces until proven otherwise  I like Jordan Love. Always have. I wanted to draft him but he isn’t a superstar.  CJ Stroud hasn’t been much better than Bryce after his rookie season. After that Bears game year 2 his numbers very similar to Bryce I will say I think Drake Maye is well on his way to becoming the next top tier QB if I had to pick one from this entire list. I’d also say Baker Mayfield is a damn good QB and I’d take him over most of those guys not in the elite category  Now if you want to debate tools and which QB’s possess tools to put them in higher tiers that’s a completely different discussion. Most QB’s on your main list all have those physical tools that will keep you thinking he’ll become the next top tier QB. They’ll sprinkle in a “wow” play or two a game. Bryce will never look that way. Young’s game at its peak will physically always look different and I think that’s where most people struggle when it comes to seeing how Young’s can be successful in the league  All QB’s need a team around them. I think the Bills are failing Josh Allen much like the Panthers did Cam. Beane and McDermott using same blueprint with Bills team. Josh Allen hasn’t had much in terms of WR’s and it’s ultimately costing them when it matters the most
