Opinion.. Panthers brass have concerns over KB, hence Funchess.

Where did we see that this was FAT?  Didn't Brown come in with 10 extra pounds of muscle?  The human body grows until you are 25 (give or take a year)

While chances are it is fat.  He is an athlete he'll get it off.

HONESTLY didn't you know (sarcasm abound)  Dave said before the 2014 draft.  Let's draft this guy and don't worry I saw a player at Michigan that I am sure will fall to the second round next year.  He is just like this Benjamin guy so if he is lazy like they say.  We'll draft him.

Seriously, KB had nice rookie year. If it weren't for that showboat in NY he would have been in contention for OROY.  Last year all I heard was 5-800 years would be a good year for a Rookie.  Now 1000 yd receiver and because he comes in with a couple extra pounds.  He is now unworthy of being #1.

I'm trying to think back to pre-draft analysis about KB maturity or was it his dedication. It was something. I have no idea why after a 1,000 yd season regardless of how he got it, why he would come in 10lbs heavier

I'm curious about his thought process on the Panthers drafting a receiver that's identical to him. A potential number 1 receiver at that

I think it's because he got a real offseason for the first time.  Remember after he got out of college he had to keep going for combine,  Pro days,  and team workouts then he started rookie mini camp,  OTAs,  minicamp,  then working with cam and prohel, then training camp and finally preseason and regular season games. I can definitely see going a little overboard when your on vacation after that amount of time.  I'm surprised he didn't gain more haha.

Please note the keyword here is OPINION.. The more and more I think about it, the more I think there could be some underlyimg concerns the FO and coaches have with KB and I think that is a lot of the reason we drafted Funchess.. This is the part the proverbial pitchforks come out, but I dont care what anyome says. The fact he put on 9-10 lbs for someone who isnt too speedy to begin with is worrisome..

 

It says a lot of things. First off, if KB was truly as dedicated during the off season, why was he not exercising enough or conditioning? Then you have the case of TWO hammy issues during OTAs and to make matters worse that was in BOTH legs.. Now here is where I will get push back but this has to be said..

 

Yes, I get the stats.. Over 1000 rec yds and what like 9-10 TDs?! While that is impressive I do think that one thing that gets overlooked on here is a lot of those yds did come during garbage time, and quite few of them when DA was under center because of garbage time. I watch every second of every single Panther game like clockwork and we had a lot of garbage time last year as a whole and I remember KB putting up a lot of numbers then ( Philly game is one game that comes to mind). 

 

Also, there is no doubt he had a lot of mind numbing WTF drops.. The bottom line is this.. Do i think we are going to hear KB is going to be waived and Funchess takes his spot?! Ofcourse not! (Although im guessing by how some of you react, you will think thats what I am saying) I am simpy saying that after the report of his weight gain and then now the 2 hammy issues, im starting to get a tad bit concerned about KB and loving the Funchess pick more and more. 

 I'm going to assume you're fairly young? I used to make a lot of unusual/not very well thought out threads when I was younger too. You really need to think these posts through. Ask yourself "How is the huddle going to react to this?" You must have seen this bad reaction coming?
