Gettlemen continues to get criticism for not bringing in a WR

I was listening today to Jamie Dukes and Eric Davis still criticizing the Panthers for not bringing in a WR. 

My take is we had to make choices in the 1st round...... and I agree with the pick of Star.I guess the question is was there a guy in the 2nd round that would have supplanted LeFell ?

What free agent WR's have been available that would have a chance to start over Smith or Lafell?

 

A second round rookie would not start over either.

 

Ginn was brought in to compete for that 3rd WR spot in 3 wide sets.

 

I am not sure Dukes or Davis have a clue on what they are talking about.

I agree.....we did not have the cap space to grab a tier one WR in the FA market so the alternative was the draft.

Mike Wallace, Greg Jennings, Percy Harvin, etc

 

Make Wallace signed for 60 million, 20 guaranteed

Harvin signed for 67 million, 25 guaranteed

Greg Jennigs signed for 47 million, 18 guaranteed.

 

 

SO are we bashing Gettleman for not spending money that doesn't exist on his ledger?

      Brown on BY9 while talking to Chris Long

      I mean, I hear what y'all are saying, but Derrick could have been positive without being negative.  He essentially accused people of not seeing Bryce's improvement because of their desire to not be wrong. He could've kept it about Bryce and the team. For example, he could've said: "Bryce has made strides, and we believe in him. This coming season, his continued improvement will turn a lot of people into believers."  That would've been supportive of his teammate and sent a message to the doubters. That being said, his tact almost summoned and left the door ajar for more skepticism. That's my take anyway. Bryce has improved from the bottom to perhaps skirting the line between the bottom third and mid-third at best...after three seasons. We've all seen it. Yay! In my mind, Bryce has still got a long way to go and a short time to get there, but my expectations are top five--at least top 10--always! Yes, I am a fan, so there's that, but I don't believe it's unreasonable to expect excellence. Hopefully the Panthers FO has the same mindset (and that doesn't even necessarily have anything to do with what we gave up to acquire him). That is the lens I'm looking through. Derrick Brown has his homer glasses on. He just needs to be more diplomatic and thoughtful with his words in my opinion, but I get it that he's a good teammate.

      Canes vs Canadians Gm 2 Rd 3 7pm

      I have no doubt the Canes will come out like gangbusters, huge bounce back from game one - my only concern is Freddie, if he lets in a couple of softies and Dobes stays hot we could be in trouble.
