I like the idea of signing Hill in itself, but other than Brown whose untouchable right now for obvious reasons there isnt a WR I wanna part with for him.

We could go with 6 WR's and cut somebody else at the bottom of the roster, but that leads into the question of would i rather have Hill or some of the other guys available at actual positions of need, and the answer is mostly no.

I am sort of in the same boat. I like the receivers we have (shockingly) so I don't know who I would want to part with to get him.

But i can see the thought process where it would make sense.

I a really good either way. Just sticking up for my boy Hill because playing with the Jets is not fair for any receiver.

It would be like judging Smitty when Clausen and Moore were the QBs

Would rather we sign Marc Mariana.  Hill is nothing but a fast runner.  Coming out of college, he wouldn't have been drafted no higher than the 7th round.  The only thing that got him drafted was his workout at the combine.  The Jets went Raiders on that one, but yeah, he was all hype to begin with. (The other thing that helped him was he came from the same school as Calvin Johnson.  People took into account the offense they ran at the time was run oriented, so Hill couldn't really show his skills.  So he has been all hype to this point)

You can't be serious, look they all can catch. Your ability to catch when defenses are game planning against you and a top notch defender is in your face is the difference.

Yeah, because every team has 3 quality corners to throw out there. KB will draw their best, Bersin will get their 2nd or 3rd best Corner. You just never know what will happen.

I love how you automatically say Bersin can't win a one-on-one battle. Fear, it's a hellofa drug.

I mostly like our WR group as is, but we've got to be fielding one of the slowest groups out there. Considering we're also fielding what is easily the worst OT pair to go along with that, ehhhhh. If not Hill, fine, but someone who doesn't run the 40 in minutes would be awesome to mix things up.

Agreed. Like Zod said, many of the big pass plays in training camp would've been sacks had it been a real game. Whether that's because Shula is halfway to brain dead when it comes to designing plays, or because our receivers are slower than molasses, or a combination of both, I don't know.

I never used the word "can't" I said we don't know. Nothing he's done to this point would suggest that he can tho

    • I'd give it a C mainly because of Brooks.  If we just didn't have a 2nd I'd argue B to B+ tbh. Brooks was a bad gamble, tho one that could still pay off long term. Yes XL only has 400 yards but... Look who is throwing him the ball. And I think he isn't a "true #1" but he's been able to consistently get open. Hands definitely need to be cleaned up.  But he should end the year with 500-600 yards. Like you said - Sanders looks great.  Get him a better QB / more time with a QB and I think he's gonna impress. We added a couple rotational players on D that have both made plays and show promise for the future from later rounds. So I'd say, Brooks really hurts this drafts grade. It'll be interesting to see how it progresses over the next 3 years. I've overall really liked Morgan's FA acquisitions, so...
    • Oh he would absolutely flourish. It’s the panthers way. It’s no different with coaches. Sometimes they reach their expiration date, go somewhere else, and find new success.  Similarly to Burns, how long to wait for the light to finally turn on?  Market forces will demand a salary that the panthers can not responsibly match. Sliding him to guard will fit his skill set better, but he has played LT for 3 years. He will receive offers from other teams wanting to pay him LT money.  At guard, he won’t start with what they have paid Hunt and Lewis. Center then?? Dunno. Maybe? He will become a backup by default once they draft their stud LT. I doubt Dan just stands pat. That’s not his MO.  So where does this put him? Can you match what other teams will offer for a backup LT/guard? Do you dish out franchise LT $ on a guy who still needs significant improvement in pass protection. This team will be DOA in the playoffs with the very first team who has a formidable speed rusher. What if he has hit his ceiling in pass protection already and they sign him long term? It’s a big gamble either way. 
    • We're in a great position to see just how big of a misstep it would be, having made so many ourselves
