Bargain Free Agent: WR Denarius Moore

[Rhell]

Why would people take Ginn over Moore? Like...seriously? Help me understand because I'm not seeing it.

 

Ginn has already proven he can be a solid contributor in our system, Moore has not.  Moore is a bit younger, but they seem to be pretty much equal otherwise.  Either one would bring speed to our offense and a return guy, hopefully DG can bag one of these cats.

I love solid #2's.

Then eat a lot of fiber. It's good for you!

[Darknight]

Moore is a better receiver? Younger?

 

I don't get where you are going but I prefer Moore over Ginn.

I would say that Moore is a slightly better receiver than Ginn just by looking at the numbers and I believe that Moore will produce in this season. Only thing that Ginn does that Moore doesn't really do and that is return kicks.

Been there-done that with Ginn.  Give me Moore all day long!

I see you've been listening.  

 

I don't know why more people don't.

 

People may not like Bill Polian for various reasons, but he has always proven to be an excellent talent evaluator.  So I guess people must ask themselves why Polian grades Moore so highly among the crop of free agent wide receivers this year, even though Moore was hung out to dry and buried on the bench.  Polian is definitely not the type to express gratuitous "positive" opinions.  He doesn't talk out the side of his neck.

To see Cobb ranked with Bryant is laughable.

Says the guy (Polian) who said RG3 and/or Tannehill was better than Cam. Bill Polian sucks. Got Jim Kelly because the USFL folded and lucked into the #1 pick/Peyton Manning. That's Bill Polian in a nutshell. Bitter old fool to boot. Why does ANYONE, much less Panther fans, care what he thinks?

Yeah, Demaryius Thomas and Dez Bryant are both clearly a grade above Randall Cobb.  That's no knock on Cobb.  Thomas and Bryant are ELITE NFL WRs.  Cobb is a WR coming off of a really nice season.  He's only had one 1000 yard season.  He had 1287 yards last year.  Meanwhile, Thomas has had three straight 1400+ yard seasons including last year's 1619 yards.  Bryant has had three straight 1200 yard seasons including last season's 1320 yards.  Bryant has 41 TDs in the last three seasons.  Thomas has 35.  Cobb has 24.

 

Cobb is good, but he's no Demaryius Thomas or Dez Bryant.  Then again, that's why he signed for "only" 4 years/$40M with $17M guaranteed while Thomas and Bryant had to be franchise tagged.

Pretty much the truth.

 The majority of the world picked RG3 over Cam before RG3 was injured, and some picked Tannehill also.  If you look at their statistics and ratings, you might be surprised at how relatively close they are on many points.  Of course Cam has played one more season than both, but look at the averages and ratings. Stop being such a Homer.  Everyone is not a Panthers fan and doesn't see things through Cam colored glasses. I am one of Cam's most ardent supporters---Cam as a QB and a person---and have been, but he's not perfect and hasn't pulled himself from the pack quite yet. Hopefully once he gets more weapons, including a guy like Denarius Moore, hopefully he will ascend to the pedestal that many of us believe that he is capable of.  Hell, maybe he---along with Proel and Rivera---can help Moore to reach his potential as opposed to being blackballed by idiots and playing within a dysfunctional, disjointed franchise.

 

As for trying to knock Polian's career, have at it.  It still won't change the fact that he is in the Hall of Fame. Obviously someone cares what he thinks.

Just picked up Denarius Moore in Dynasty on a whim… #Panthers perhaps?

[TrianglePanther]

They only want a 6th for him?

Well, Brandon Marshall went for a 5th.
