If I could say Bell twice, I'd do it now, then duplicate the thread...

 

Bell- lazy and abused

J Thomas- backup nickel at best and he'd suck at that too imo

Flo- lost in coverage, more P.I.s than stops (not sure but it felt right), great locker room presence but penalties negate that.

Lafell- great blocker but if we go into next season considering him to be our #2 it is pointless. his hands are a #2 haha

Norman- no comment...

Amini - He always gets pushed back into the pocket.

Bell- Gets beat on the edge all too often.

Hardy - If he breaks the bank because he didn't show up in the only game that counted this year for the 2nd time against the same team. I know he was doubled but know down a pass at the line or something.

Blackburn - Too slow to keep up with dominate te's and can't close in on speedy backs.

Lafell - if he wants more than vet mini

Brandon Lafell (he's only minimally better than the Keary Colberts, Drew Carters, and Dwayne Jarretts of the world)

Josh Thomas (I don't think this really needs an explanation)

Byron Bell (at least out of the starting lineup)

Jonathon Stewart (can't stay healthy and is in a crowded backfield)

Chase Blackburn (only because I think the D played better with AJ Klein in that spot)

      Panthers Preseason

      Ideally Bryce and the other starters should get at least a full quarter and an argument could be made for 2 full quarters given how they've played early in the season the last few years.

      Barnwell - Ranking WR, TE, RB Groups in NFL

      By CRA · Posted

      A rookie that has never played a snap and a proven 1000K NFL WR are not going to be viewed the same in these type rankings.  And calling draft picks, lotto picks, isn't some new quip I just invented.  take the big 3 Hubbard, AT, insert whatever 3rd Panther you want vs Kamara, Hill, Olave.  Most football folks outside of Carolina are picking the Saints there IMO.

      Barnwell - Ranking WR, TE, RB Groups in NFL

      By WUnderhill · Posted

      You didn’t really address the point, just like you ignored the point about the RBs initially, and saying “they are all lotto picks” is just a really silly reduction because you could say that about literally any player rookie or vet every snap, every game, every year. It is well known that different positions have different hit rates, and I would argue different types of prospects within position groups as well, and that hit rates change the further down in the draft you go. Everybody knows QB is different and that, for example, first round OL have a really high success rate. Using your lotto ticket analogy…again…you are saying a lotto ticket with a 1 in 100 chance of hitting is the exact same thing as a lotto ticket with a 1 in 2 chance of hitting (this is an example, don’t take these odds literally). The point was he is no more of a lotto ticket than the 31yr old receiver coming off a major knee injury, and in my opinion he is better odds with a higher potential “jackpot”. Saying one player is an “lotto ticket” while another isn’t is just not sound logic. You have no idea who will break out, regress, get injured, etc. There are safer bets than others, that’s all. I don’t think Diggs is a safe bet and even if he was, weighing him over all of the Panthers WRs plus 2 1k rushers is just dumb. You can disagree if you want. The list is stupid.
