I don't disagree as a pure WR. But there could easily be stuff keeping Mingo ahead for now (playbook knowledge, blocking assignments, blocking ability). That stuff matters but isn't as clear to fans.

He didn't want to be here. Morgan already said that. We offered him similar sized deal but he was sold on playing with Dan Quinn's scheme. But I agree, he is a big loss. He had soul.

Unfortunately, it was clear as soon as they showed him coming the tent. Have to assume he is retiring. Hate it for him. Our defense is toast the rest of the year.

There is no incentive to getting rid of him right now. 1. It's highly unlikely he will be a locker room cancer. 2. Trade value will be highest in offseason before the draft 3. We might need him as a backup and he knows the system. 4. Maybe he actually regains some confidence and get better (unlikely but still).

More sacks than Brian Burns.

Dalton will get this shot the rest of the year. But there is no chance he can get more than another one year deal. And he will have to have competition brought in for next season. He is 36 already.

I think it depends on how the draft falls and where we are. I think this is a weak class so not a great season for needing a QB. I don't see Carson Beck as being a future NFL starter. Maybe Ewers if the staff loves him. And I want nothing to do with Shaduer Sanders. Give me Travis Hunter, Abdul Carter or trade back.

By all means, Canales and Morgan brought in an OL to give him a pocket. And Bryce somehow got worse. I still don't think Canales should be expected to win. But we need to look like a professional football team. I actually have more faith in Canales that he was willing to make this decision; it's an incredibly difficult thing to do. But I don't see anyway Bryce recovers from this; especially within Carolina.

I think it's pretty clearly this. They (coaching staff and FO) see the veterans on this team. I've supported Bryce and giving him time to grow. But these first two games he has looked worse than Jimmy Clausen ever looked. Cannot even complete bubble screens. Missing throws that HS players make. He has literally 0 confidence in himself. I was at the game Sunday and it felt like 5 yards was too much to ask for our offense. That's unsustainable for another week. I do think Tepper had a say but it was more of a approval of Canales/Morgan's decision.

Me too! Thomas Wingate Andrews represent!

Anecdotal but two of the best WRs in the league currently. AJ Brown and DK Metcalf. And our HC/OC were DK's position coaches that developed him.

He's a player that needs development on his route running. But he can contribute immediately as well. He is already the best receiver at WR screens, reverse, slant. He is already the best KR. He needs polishing on the rest.

AND Canales/Idzik were the WR coach/passing game coach that developed the raw DK Metcalf.

The WR room is honestly pretty solid and diverse now. You have: 1. quick twitch/route runner (Johnson) 2. security blanket with solid hands (Thelein) 3. big physical playmaker (XL) 4. pure speed in ISM. But his hands and route running sucks.
