King and McNutt wont be punchlines for long.

I can't wait to buy a Mcnutt jersey.

"Though it’s still not crystal clear, general manager Dave Gettleman does have a plan for his team at receiver."

and it quotes McNutt as saying this about the plan at WR by the guys in the front office: “They're just not going to go all straight young guys. There’s going to be guys they pick up."

This should be enough for 60% of the posters on here to STFU every time we don't sign some bum ass FA.

look at that agility... 

 

seriously though i have high hopes for McNutt

[Riverboat Ron]

So...

McNutt- 85 rec. 1530 yards 15 td

King- 92 rec. 1420 yards 12 td

Could someone help me out by explaining why King and McNutt, who couldn't see action on a team that boosted the 28th ranked passing attack, is supposed to be better than the WRs they could not beat out?

 

1. It takes WRs a bit of time to adjust to the NFL

2. They weren't born knowing the play book.

3. When you are winning, you do not change the lineup

Both of them have potential, but IMO I think their ceiling is a #2 WR

[Pejorative Miscreant]

Based on their inability to get reps so far my guess is they are complimentary depth players at best. Hope is not a strategy. Wish these guys the best but I don't think the answer is currently on our roster.

Wow some people are actually thinking rationally. I'm impressed huddle.

[Jangler]

Pretty sure with a name like McNutt, he will always be a punchline.

[MedellinHeel]

I actually like Mcnutt and King and think they both can be more than serviceable. Only thing I am worried about is Shula and the oline.

I disagree.  They needed to learn the plays, develop chemistry.  They were rookies drafted late--rough route runners. They needed time with proehl.  We got them because they are developmental players-

 

If the Panthers had gone 7-9, you would have seen more of them.

 

They are not going to be #1 or even #2 probably, but there is a place for players like this in the rotation.

this. many times young players who are not drafted in the early rounds simply do not get the burn or opportunity for various reasons. doesn't automatically mean they are worse than the guys ahead of them.
