D-Will in shock over loss of receiving corp

Williams is trying to get cut.  He thinks we would have to pay him guaranteed money and another team will give him $2-3 million.  He thinks if Smitty can be outspoken and get 2 checks, he can too.

 

Pretty wild speculation there.

Dwill tool another shot at Cotchery, Avant, McNutt, King, and Olsen saying "we have no receivers." That dude is a moron and I wish we could cut his sorry ass.

 

No, here is what he said.

 

"I don't have any concerns so to speak," he said about the offense in the regular season. "I just don't want to see eight, nine guys in the box week in and week out because we're working on our timing."
 
In that final phrase lies the crux of Williams' concern about the Panthers' passing attack.

 

 

His point is not that these guys don't have talent. His point is that these guys don't get to work with Cam until Training camp which is a short amount of time to get the timing together. That could be very bad for both the receiving and running game.

 

He is absolutely right.

With the contract he has, and the money crunch we are in, it's real easy to demonize D'Lo... It doesn't help that folks without good reading comprehension spout off about these media stories. He ain't the RB he used to be, but I think he's always worked hard and has been a good teammate.

Seems like he's being a "good teammate" to players that are on OTHER teams rather than the players on HIS team at this point.

That's being a "good teammate"?

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
