Brandon "Dat Deal" LaFell

he's an... okay... #2

optimal situation would be to have two top end guys like Atlanta has and have him as the #3

if Smitty retires and he ends up as our #1? good lord

This, we need a legit number 1 and have him be the relief wr. Good thing we couldnt draft Blackmon tho lol.

Yea but he got walked down in the 1st half. Would've been an automatic TD if he had some more speed.

Same can be said for the second best WR to ever play for the Panthers in Moose. He got walked down on a regular basis, but his value as a chain mover was incredible.

I would love to see LaFell add about ten to fifteen pounds of muscle and become a first down guy because his hands are very strong.

He caught 468 yards as a rookie, 613 yards in his second year, and has 367 yards this year already in only 6 starts. 800 or 900 yards this year is not impossible for him and he's not even really considered a premiere option for Cam yet, and Cam's struggles this year are well documented.

I don't see why people are capping his potential already when all he has done every year was get better and better. He's not ever going to be a game breaking number one, but like Moose, he could develop into that invaluable 2nd WR with blocking nastiness and a few 1,000 yard seasons sprinkled into his career.

    • Trade up for a project was dumb, he's gonna be 25 next month. By the time you're deciding on whether he's worth the 5th year option or a big contract you're already gonna be thinking about moving on soon either way.  
    • I mean this is legit AF statement....you don't spend that draft capital on a project just like you don't trade up for an injured RB either, which was done in the same draft.  That draft IMO was a necessary evil for DM to learn from his mistakes (I think he did but some may not). Also I have to mention I'm a big Coker fan and think getting him as an UDFA was obv a steal.  Coker is the better WR2 at this point as Legette and its not even debatable unfortunately.  Give him year 3 but don't expect much from him.  Continue in the offseason with adding as much talent and competition on the roster as possible including WR.  Or just trade his ass for peanuts and continue to build roster by any means.......  
    • Losing him was a huge loss. Look at how the Bears went from a 5 win team to now a 11 win team. The Lions offensive line is bad this year, secondary is bad and Campbell going for it on 4th down all the time has cost them games instead of taking the Field Goals. Goff is inconsistent as well.
