I could see picking up Edwards not because he was the best guy but the one they landed in the free agent craziness. i suspect he isn't number 1 on the list especially with the DWI, but he surely is a productive receiver who might want to come to Carolina at a price we could afford. If we could keep Smith and bring in Edwards in addition to who we already have, we might have a decent group for Cam this season. They certainly would not be the reason the offense struggled at least from a talent point of view.

If we do end up pursuing a WR in FA it damn well better be a player with #1 ability and potential. I am starting to think Smith's days are numbered here. If he were to leave, I want a guy that would require the same if not more attention from a defense. Don't take this as bashing #10/11/12, I love them and am anxious to see what we have in that young WR core.

However, I still think DT and CB and more pressing needs and would like to see our money spent there rather than at WR.

Both his NY teammates and coaches have commented positively about his work ethic. After the DUI he was great for them both on the field and off. He had no problem with drops, in fact quite the opposite.

It could be a one year thing, but signs point to Edwards maturing as a player and person this past year.

Braylon drops passes. Braylon is vocal at times. Braylon has questionable work ethic. Braylon would mentor all of our WRs.

Nah.

Braylon has his flaws and wouldn't be a mentor to anyone. But I would hope that a guy like Ricky Proehl will have a positive influence on all the receivers and do for him what Shula did for Garrard at the quarterback position, turn things around and improve their performances.

TBH Im happy with Gettis and LaFell. Both progressed while is crappy conditions and should continue this year with a actual QB under center and coaches that give a damn. Smith,Gettis,LaFell seems a good trio to me. If AE progresses then we prob are set.

      DJ Moore. The quitting WR

      By fieryprophet · Posted

      This play was never designed to go to either DJ or Odunze. The primary read is Burden who is stymied early, with the outlet being Kmet if Caleb doesn't like the option for Burden. Given the situation it's pretty obvious the simple play is to take the free yards with Kmet, or if you want to be aggressive just wait a beat longer for Burden to uncover on his double move. If Moore was ever going to be a viable target in this play then Caleb should have started out reading Odunze to hold the safety in the middle and then coming to Moore, but because he started the snap staring down the right and then came back to the middle late it made it where the safety's leverage remained to the outside of Moore, so he would never have imagined that pass actually being thrown to him in that situation. Realistically DJ's best option in that context is to just occupy the safety to leave a hole open for Caleb to get it to Burden, which is probably why he throttles down vs carrying the safety across.

      2026 Mock Drafts

      By panfanman · Posted

      Even with Sonny Styles still on the board I thought it's a no brainer to address the Oline after Icky's injury.  And how can you pass up Fano at 19 given our situation. Then the rest of the draft just kind of made sense with maybe the exception of Klubnik.  But if Canales can fix him and Young goes down. . .I think it's a solid pick. What do you think of this draft?

      When we didn't trade him to the Rams or the Bears (I believe the Bears said they would take one of Brown/ Burns/DJ Moore) we should have just signed him and kept him.  We should have traded him to the Rams obviously and we should have kept DJ and traded Burns.  We made all three wrong choices with Burns lol.
