It's widely agreed that there have been two special rookie classes, when it comes to wide receivers entering the league, since the 1970 AFL-NFL merger. The first came in 1988 with a collection that included two Hall of Famers (Michael Irvin and Cris Carter), another player currently up for election (Tim Brown) and one who could've gone to Canton if his career hadn't been cut short by injuries (Sterling Sharpe). The second great class came in 1996. That bunch included four receivers who caught at least 800 passes in their careers (Marvin Harrison, Terrell Owens, Muhsin Muhammad and Keyshawn Johnson) and four others who surpassed the 600-catch mark (Eric Moulds, Amani Toomer, Bobby Engram and Joe Horn).

Muhammad was really good. It's a shame he went to the Bears as I felt the Panthers offense never was the same after he left. He wanted too much money though. Back when Hurney was frugal.

 

Think about how good our 2005 offense would have been with Moose and Steve, though... Moose led the league in TDs and yards in 2004 and Smith did that as well in 2005. We could have had a juggernaut offense that year.

...in an article that also praises Kelvin Benjamin.

It really surprises me that he gets no mention of being a candidate for OROY. I'm hoping Norman shuts Evans down this weekend as he has done to most receivers he's matched up with lately. And that Benjamin breaks out in a big way which is possible because the trajectory of Anderson's throws are more conducive for jump ball situations.

I hate thinking about that sort of thing because I always remember how good I thought Patrick Jeffers would have been if he hadn't been injured.

Panthers had a very good offense in 2005.

 

The numbers were pretty but with al of our RBs down late in the playoffs, maybe Jake throws less INTS against SEA with a more veteran WR like Moose out there and pressure is taken off steve.

 

Drew Carter and Keary Colbert weren't exactly the guys you want to be depending on deciding whether you go to the SB or not.

      Corbett might not be gone

      By MHS831 · Posted

      If we are going to spend the money anyway, maybe the signing is not as bad as it seems.  Mays outperformed Corbett (before his injury and if you go back to last year, Corbett has been below average) and then Christensen took the job and Mays quickly took it from him and never looked back.  He could use improvement reaching to the next level (LBs) but picking up stunts and blitzes---he was surprisingly good.  Run blocking needs some work, but he is 25.  Corbett, in my view, should be G/C depth and if Mays steps back, he is there.  Mays should start because this team is building for the future and 30 year old players are not building blocks.  We shall see.  That is how I think about it, but there are many factors we do not know. Having said that, I like what Zavala is doing, and I do not want to bring in someone who would take opportunities away from him.  Zavala was really good at RG down the stretch, and in limited duty, was awesome. In fact, we have a guard from the PS who played briefly and did well, but he only played a few plays.  He is 25 and I recall that fans of his former team were upset when we signed him.   Maybe as the backup center only (Corbett).  You need 2 centers to run practices efficiently.  I cannot say enough about the OL coaches on this staff.  What they have done is overshadowed by the Lewis / Hunt signing.  Mays, Ekwonu, Zavala--impressive growth.
