Phillip Dorsett to meet with Panthers

[CelibatePimp]

He's rated lower than both TY and Cooks on his draft profile. He's compared to john brown who is not bad at all IMO.

[Rags]

If this is to be believed (I trust the site with it's sources, a lot fo times he's spot on) Dorsett is a late first-early second pick. Brandin Cooks 2.0?

Dorsett is no where as good as Cooks or even TY Hilton coming out of college.

I realize some of you don't watch college ball but Dorsett was never a premier wr in his own conference. He has the skill set of a elite vertical threat but does not offer much else as a wr. Now a smaller wr like Crowder from Duke was a much better wr but he does not have Dorsett 4.3 speed.

I would take the k state wr Lockett over Dorsett as well. He was a tremendous wr in college and has skills transferable to the league as well.

I was moreso talking about is stock rising, but I'd see hes about equal too or greater than Hiltion coming out.

I have to agree, especially with the first sentence.  I think he offers a little more than just speed though.  Definitely not a "fringe" 1st rounder IMO.  I'd personally put him in the late 2nd - mid 3rd range, leaning more to the mid 3rd.

How so? TY Hilton actually produced in college as a wr and on special teams and his game was more advanced than Dorsett. Dorsett primarily ran go routes at Miami and his route tree was not extensive.

Not the same caliber of players imo. Now Tyler Lockett is different.

[ncfan]

Do Not Want in the first 3 rounds.  He does have Speed.  But thats all he's got.  The Lockett kid is more "explosive" and will go lower.  If he's sitting around the 4th grab him.  He is in no way a #2, the guy would be a good #3 slot WR in the league.  We just signed one of those, who also happens to be a track star with poor hands in Ginn.

Hurricane fan here. He's fast but... that's about it.

 

 

That's what I saw when I did watch Miami games. I think he will have a long career but people need to temper their expectations if they think he is going to be the next TY HIlton. He has amazing speed but that's pretty much it. He's no Santana Moss, that's for sure.

[Byrdman4real]

4th round probably

[rmoneyg35]

Since we have Ginn do we really need Dorsett? Isn't he pretty raw as a receiver? Sure he has other worldly speed but why not draft a player like Lockett in the latter rounds and draft a player that is more NFL ready?

[ncfan]

If he's all we get at WR we are in trouble.  Ginn, Hill, and Dorsett fighting for the #2 and #3 with Ginn having the best hands out of the group.  Thats not something to be overly excited for a QB.

Crabtree is a bust as a first rounder and I don't think I can name another first round WR who was purely a speed guy that ever became a huge impact player for his team.

Brown is our one-dimensional WR and Ginn would fit that same bill if he wsang such a good returner on special teams.

we don't need a burner. we need someone with speed who is physical and can make the tough catch regardless of the route he is assigned. Benji and Olsen are about as physical as you get and we have Cotch as our possession guy with Ginn stretching the field.

there is no rational reason why we should waste a puck on a WR when we desperately need a difference making Safety, OLB and some help on the OL before we go looking at WR and RB when we have plenty.

Do you think the coaching staff really likes how Hill has progressed and are counting on him to make a leap?

Lol. I gave the dumbest post award to thebigcat earlier, but I believe this just topped it.
