Keyshawn Johnson calls Jarrett a "Bust"

What's your point?

Colbert stood out as a rook. Jarrett did not. That's all I'm saying. SO FAR...he has been a bust.

My point is that you can't always tell how long it will take some players to fully develop...especially when they get drafted at 20yrs old. WR's usually take about 3yrs to really learn the nuances of the pro game anyway.

Anyway, Jarrett made some big time catches when he got his chances last year. He just needs to be more consistent.

and that's assuming that the reason he doesn't play more is because he hasn't developed.

to relate back to my last post in this thread about Williams... do you guys really think he was 'developing' his first two seasons and just couldn't beat out Foster? or does our FO just make bad decisions like that based on veteran loyalty from time to time?

Hmmm...I don't really think it was too much to do with loyalty, honestly. I think part of it was rookie learning curve in the passing game (Foster was pretty good in pass pro, and that's a part of Williams' game that he wasn't as good at then as now). Plus after what Vinny T said about Williams not doing all he could do to be great I would also think that the coaches saw that and since Foster was always the consummate professional and did things the right way, he was on the field. I don't think it's always wise to put a guy with more talent out there instead of a vet if they don't have the necessary midset yet.

I'm so tired of listening to Key piss and moan about us because he's still pouting about something that happened to him years ago.

Face it Key, nobody thought you were still good enough to give any money to, or you wouldve ended up somewhere after we cut you.

I hope Dwayne absolutely goes off next year, just because to shut tour ridiculously obnoxious mouth.

i see potential in jarrett so im not gonna call his career a bust, but i definitely would expect more production (and more playing time) from a 2nd round pick...( i think they graded him as a first round talent too)...if he doesnt show me something this year, im calling him a bust

that said.....i think he will have a good year

      That's my biggest concern with making him the 2C.  You split up the Aho Jarvis bromance that accounted for a lot of points.  If Jarvis excels as a C, it could help the team even more though.

      Barnwell - Ranking WR, TE, RB Groups in NFL

      By PanthersNCSU · Posted

      The Saints being that high is the one that killed me. Chris Olave might not know his name at this point, Shaheed is coming off injury as well, so 31 year old Brandin Cooks might be your best WR...coming off a 260 yard season over 10 games. Kamara is Kamara, but didn't have 1,000 yards last year and is about to turn 30.  Toss in the fact that Taysom Hill may be the best QB on the team and I truly don't understand Barnwell's thoughts beside seeing the names "Olave" and "Kamara" and going yep, that sounds better than "Chuba" and "Thielen".

      Barnwell - Ranking WR, TE, RB Groups in NFL

      Now now now, I wouldn't say there is no logic, but there's just not a lot of in-depth thought put into Barnwell's  "analysis." Now to be fair to him (and other national writers), pre-season team rankings are basically clickbait. And...Barnwell, himself, said that "there's a lot of projection here." He basically admits that he doesn't know how the hell things are going to turn out with our receiver group. He also said that "I find myself" more intrigued by Coker than Legette; that does not mean that he said that fans should be, or that Coker will even be better than Legette (regardless of ESPN's per-route-run stat). So, yeah, Barnwell said some things, but even he has to basically admit that he doesn't know how bad or good that our playmakers will be in 2025.  Overall, what Barnwell is basically thinking is that the Panthers have gotten worse at the offensive skill positions, and baked into that is that others have gotten better. That's the argument in July (meaning, please don't give this any more weight than it's due). I would personally be surprised (not shocked) if we end up worse than the Titans, Pats and Giants at least. Once you throw in the Bills, Giants, Jets, Steelers, and even the Chargers, I personally think there are several teams' skill groups that may end up ranked lower than ours by the end of 2025.  @kungfoodudeis one of my dudes, but like others he is over the tipping point. He's had enough. Seeing is believing. I will say this though: Barnwell's piece is less about logic than just good ol' opinion. And to be honest, he might as well be a Huddler throwing out sh¡t in the summer based upon nothing but good feels or bad feels.  Our offense as a whole (just like any other team's) is going to depend upon the play of the O-line and especially the QB. How you can even rank the skill positions without expressly baking those two things in the cake is beyond me. I would dare say that that's not even logical.
