Agree/disagree: LaFell is better than Cotchery, Underwood, and Avant

Gettleman has won 2 Super Bowls & went to 5 as an assistant GM/director of scouting...

Including kicking Belichick's ass in those 2 Super Bowl victories...

Nice try, though.

Lol even the towel boy gets a ring. Belichick won those Super Bowls as THE guy and it took Gettleman 30 years to even become THE guy so let's hope off his sack until he at least has back to back winning seasons.

i wouldn't take lafell over cotchery or avant.

 

lafell was ok, but very unreliable and on the whole just average. there's nothing special, meaning dynamic, about avant and cotchery, but they are reliable. they are clutch. they are also provide great leadership on and off the field.

i had enough of lafell's drops, esp. in key situations. there were far too many excuses made for him. those excuses don't have to be made for either avant or cotchery as far as reliability is concerned. cotchery provides a better red zone target for cam (an  i'm not referring to size) and avant is a first down machine. both are more polished than lafell, which they should be because of their age, but avant pretty much came into the league like that. he's the closest thing to a ricky proehl-type receiver that we've had since, well, proehl.

 

i don't know enough about underwood so i'll give you that, but lafell better than cotchery and avant? nah. at the most it's a push, but when you factor in what he's getting at new england and what avant and cotchery are getting here, it pushes him right off the edge.  as far as value, there's no question in my mind that both avant and cotchery are better values and better receivers.

stupid thread is stupid.

Pretty obvious he isn't. That can be based on basic visual perception from watching him play, or how his drop% was significantly higher than JC or Avants. Sure LaFell had potential but doubtful he ever realizes it.

      Canales needs to concentrate on coaching

      By Waldo · Posted

      That should have been this year. Tough to sell to anyone worth getting when this crew is going into year 3 on the hot seat. I still think keeping Evero will sink them all after last year's showing. If/when he is scapegoated they need to show improvement or it's likely to be so eone else's problem next year. I do agree in principle tho, it all should have happened after last year's problems.

      ESPN's Benjamin Solak on Bryce Young

      By PanthersNCSU · Posted

      I've listened to some things that have calmed the "Bryce was flat out terrible" to just "he was really bad" in Week 1. It's Year 3 though, and that shouldn't be the barometer. I've got 1% hope left for Bryce, and that's just blind homerism coming out.  I'm scared that as much emphasis as the team places on advanced stats and PFF that the team *doesn't* think Bryce was that bad in Week 1. Couple that with so many of the QBs in the league looking rough, offense being down in general, and I feel like there's a lot of "what if's" going on in the building instead of facing the music.  Lose Week 2, and we should switch the main focus back to building/churning the roster, evaluating young guys, and hoping our next QB can have a Jayden Daniels level of impact. As we're all well too aware of, QB is a crapshoot a lot of the time. Admit we made a bad pick, and go draft another. And another. Repeat until correct.

      I wouldn't want any of those starting as a rookie on day 1.  That said, we need a vet, that is not Andy Dalton, that can be the starter while a prospect grows and learns on the sidelines.
