This Devin Funchess guy...(WR Michigan)

[panthers55]

maybe but not surprised.i think the Russel Wilson thread and the protection vs better weapons thread clearly suggest a different path to a Championship than we seem to be taking, but this is Gman and no one really knows what he would do until he does it.

No we don't know what Gman will do but he was influenced by all the years with the Giants and here is a simple question. Did the Giants win their two super bowls on offense or defense?

Defense, and a guy who can catch the ball on his head.Though Manning was the QB they needed Luck to put it away.since Cam is better than Luck we should be ok.

The fact anyone is talking about anyone out of Michigan this year is proof this guy has some talent.

Wolverines sucked ass this year and I'm a Michigan homer.

First one was with defense and the second one was Eli and the offense

If the Panthers draft him, I see a lot of silly posts about his name.

Do we need someone that similar to KB? I think we'd need a different style of receiver to better compliment him

You already have complimentary receivers in all the other guys on the roster, what you don't have is a solid number 2 which instantly puts pressure on a defense to have to roll coverages one way or the other. Seems to me few teams have 2 big physical corners so if one lines up against Benjamin, then there is a mismatch on the other side if our receiver is bigger and more physical or very quick and fast. You can win both ways. But what about a guy like Strong who is big,quick, and fast. Especially if he falls to the second. Depends on the fractured wrist and how serious it is. Those injuries are tough to heal due to poor blood flow.

Me? Not sure.

Gettleman would choose Funchess though.

Interesting since we worked out Dorsett and I don't see anything linking us to Funchess.

Do you have a general hierarchy of how the team views the receivers in this class?

smoke screen, if you know ,you know.That's one thing I don't have a problem with, don't show your whole hand , leave all options open.

I haven't seen any tape on him, but his "weaknesses" on his draft profile are a concern... specifically, "Isn't a lock to high-point a throw and doesn't attack throws. Won't win enough 50/50 throws."

 

That's a pretty important factor when you have a big frame, but not so much speed.  Of course, you have to take that with a grain of salt, but it's a decent indicator.

and Cam consistently throws high

Why on earth would a team take this guy in the 2nd based on fact that he has never gone over 800 yards receiving. If you can't dominate at the college level, how will you dominate in the NFL?

I'm not saying college production is everything bc some players are a product of a system, but it does say something. I'm blown away with all these WRs given a 2/3rd grade and never broke a 1000 yards in college.
