McNutt as No. 1 WR


xtheronx

Recommended Posts

Since this guy is now our no. 1 WR anyone have any info/opinions on this guy other than he converted from QB to WR?

Sounds like he's a big, athletic target but needs to work on his route running. Also, is a non-factor on special teams (from everything I've read).

Will he have a breakout year? Is he better than LaFell?

with his one attempt it certainly proved his potential is > Lafail! I actually feel good about this guy. The others ps guys are nothing to get too excited about imo. With that one pass, that kid went after it, those other guys are running around and not creating that space.... yea, yea, i know some will disagree but I'm being optimistic believe it or not. McNutt will be a solid #2 or 3 when the dust settles. watch and see

He should get the work on his route running this year

I'm willing to bet he is our no. 1 for about another week or so until we sign someone.

Either way, if any of these two receivers turn out to be a no. 1, then gettleman needs a pat on the back.

That said, bring in some talent getts.

I'm all for drafting a stud WR in the first to grow some serious chemistry that will be sustained for many many years. The sooner the better.

I cringe saying this, but perhaps a superstar LT isn't as important for us, because Cam is in fact so mobile and hard to tackle. Don't get me wrong can needs to have protection, but we've been putting of getting him a bonified #1 threat for so long. We could get someone in here who can get the job done at LT for a year or two until we have the ability to bring in a big time LT

yeah - I don't think we'll see that much of a drop off between McNutt and LaFell .. I'm excited that Cam has a big target - maybe his completion % will increase

that being said .. IMO Cam overthrew Smitty on several occasions and maybe that was part of Getts decision to release him .. Cam tends to throw high and needs big targets like McNutt

All jokes aside, I dont know why but I have a good feeling about Mcnutt. I remember hearing about him from time to time during the draft and how he could possibly be a early rounder and is talented. Lets also remember the only time he got on the field last season he made a great circus catch over a CB blanketing him in the endzone, he was out of bounds but still. Now im not saying hes going to be a HOFer or anything but I do think he could be a legit upgrade over Lafell.

    • Bad news is Bryce will actually get use a middle of the round pick (9-8) missing any chance to get a QB. Honestly though I think Tep would be ok with that and see it as a reason to resign him. After all that’s the most success Tep can muster in 10 years.
    • Yes.   It's been widely reported Aaron Glenn is an egomaniac and only wants staff who will not challenge him or tip the scales of power in any direction but his.   I'm guessing that has to be one of, if not, the most toxic environments across the four major sport leagues in America.
    • Dan tends to attack one specific position group per offseason and the sprinkle others throughout the roster. He extended Moton, signed Hunt, Lewis, Nijman one offseason and then extended Brown and signed Wharton and Hunt and drafted Jackson next offseason. My guess is he attacks LB and Edge this offseason.    1. What do you do with Icky? Likely a scratch for next season and due a massive contract (if healthy) They will bring back Nijman and Christensen and draft a guy on Day 2 is my guess and hope one of them can fill the hole. 2. Coker has the talent for 2nd WR, but do you pay a guy who gets hurt that premium? I think hes your number 3 simply due to risk. Will the Panthers seek another vet or go surprisingly high in the draft? They will probably sign him more and longer than the RFA Tender to keep him happy and not break the bank in the process. Can see them getting a Vet in FA like Tutu Atwell or Hollywood Brown. Somebody with speed but also isn’t overly expensive. I think Horn and Tremayne stick around and unfortunately Legette. I wouldn’t be surprised to see Tremble released and a real TE in brought in, there is a good FA group this year. 3. Do you give X more feature time? Or cut bait now? I wouldn’t be surprised if they traded him but I’m willing to bet he gets one more year. Maybe Canales can find a role like Shenault had with McAdoo.  4. Planning the long term/short term on OL Like I said I think Christensen and Nijman are brought back for T with a Day 2 rookie and prayer something sticks. Moton, Hunt, Lewis return ofcourse. Probably resign Corbett as a safeguard at Center but I think they go C in the 1st or 2nd. Wouldn’t be shocked to see Morgan trade to the back end of the 1st to get a solid C and add picks. 5. How do you address LB? I think Rozeboom leaves. Hoping CJ Allen or Sonny Styles is still there is too big of a risk. They probably go get Kaden Elliss or Leo Chenal and pay good money for them. Maybe a guy on Day 3 for depth with Cherelus and Martin-Scott. Also think he takes a swing at Edge, wouldn’t be shocked to see Hendrickson or Oweh here.  6. Do you bank of Chuba bouncing back?    I think Chuba remains Chuba. There are some decent change of pace backs out there this year that will be cheap. Still developing Etienne and Brooks may be healthy. I think it’s Chuba and that crew maybe a veteran that’s not Dowdle. More like Deejay Dallas who was here already once.  I also think Dalton calls it and they get an upgrade at back up. Nobody that would endanger Bryce’s job but somebody that isn’t 55 years old either. Trubisky, Minshew, Pickett, Kyle Allen (yes same one).
