Who steps up at #2/3 WR?

With LaFell doubtful, it's reasonable for Murphy to move to #2, but who goes to #3? Is tomorrow the last chance for AE to keep a spot on the 53, or does Kealoha get the nod? Perhaps we just go with 2 TE's all day or throw more to Tolbert and the backs.

What are your expectations?

Panthers WR rotation as of now: Steve Smith and/or Louis Murphy and Kealoha Pilares with Armanti Edwards the No. 4 WR.

Thanks, I missed that tweet. It will be interesting to see how much we use a 3rd guy. I have a lot of faith in Pilares if he's given a chance, but Chud may go the safe route and not use him much.

Man we need to get the ball in Pilares' hands more often. He is great in space and I believe is a threat to go the distance with a good block. The kid has a history as a running back and it shows when he catches the ball on the short/intermediate route and accelerates. I really think we haven't been utilizing him the right way...he needs to be in a Percy Harvin type roll and do things out of the backfield as well as the passing game. I feel like every time he had a catch in pre-season he made a few miss always moved the chains.

Murphy needs to step it up. Greg Olsen may have a monster game though.

THIS!

I read this in my fantasy lineup for this week about Olsen...

Greg Olsen, TE, Carolina Panthers: Olsen has had some nice games for the Panthers this year, and I like this matchup. The Redskins have allowed the second-most fantasy points to tight ends this season. Olsen has just 10 targets in his last two games, but look for the number to increase this week.

I was thinking they should get the TE's involved more now anyway... but, baby steps I guess.

Here's hope'n.

We'll need the receiver help for sure.

    • Biiiiiig eyeroll on this.  First, Look at historical stats of the most recent historical great DBs.  I plucked 3, Revis, Sherman, and Norman (cuzz he was our guy).  Combined post age 30, there are TWO pro bowls between those 3 and wanna get this...ZERO seasons with 16 games started.  ALL missed time.  It is RARE that Corners survive that long in the NFL and its about time we started recognizing this fact.  Jaycee is a good bet because it hasnt been anything seriously devastating injury wise, and with his sample size he could and should be an incredible piece for the panthers through age 30. Jaire kinda flops on the other side, hes 28...so hes under 30, but he wants his payday before it comes up, hes also been injury prone lately.  Bulk of the contract will be on opposite side of 30.  Will both of these guys help us be better in 2026?  SURE!  No doubt, but the question is, will these guys help us past 2026...not sure. The investment isnt worth the risk, nor would the ROI be anywhere close to worth it.  Neither guy is moving us from a 6-8 win team to a 8-10 team, period. My point is we're in this state a 6-8 win team IMO and he projects us as  a 4-6 win team.  EVEN if we think Jaire or Ramsey will make us a 6-8 win team, it in NO WAY is worth the money or capital to move that much just to suck kinda less.  
    • I assumed he was retiring but apparently he plans on playing multiple more seasons.  Florida is gonna have trouble holding onto everyone.  Happens to all teams that have that much success.
    • I hate Marchand, but if he became a free agent.....
