That makes both Shaq and Funch getting plays of the day. Last year's draft = fire

I see Funchess as a Travis Benjamin... more than a Kelvin

He reminds me of TO actually.

"While Kelvin is a prototype possession receiver that uses his body well to gain the upper hand, Devin is much more fluid and athletic in his routes and after the catch. Benjamin and Funchess compliment one another nicely, giving offensive coordinator Mike Shula a variety of skill sets to identify mismatches."  http://www.carolinahuddle.com/2016/08/04/carolina-panthers-devin-funchess/

I'll take AJ Green numbers for Funchess any day. I'm sure he would too. 6000+ yds. in his 1st 5 seasons and he missed 3 games in '14.

Bigger and better than a Travis.

Give him the ball on crossing routes and let him run. This offense needs YAC and Funchess is the guy.

I actually think that is the missing link of the O....Olsen, KB and Funches are all big body possession guys.

Why I still endorse thanking Ted Jr and focusing on improving our speed WR position

Hard to believe that NFL.com's draft analysis actually compared Devin to the Cowboys' Gavin Escobar- a 6'6" 260 lb. TE. 

You can't watch Funchess and see anything now but a WR, and one who can run away from the defense.

Funny you say that because that was the exact thought that came to my mind. That video in Jeremy's post is very green-esque

long-lanky and watches the ball to his hands.

Damn I can't wait to see these guys on the field together.

Seriously. How can any Panther fan not be excited about this team? I can easily see Cam's passing numbers go up this year. If anything goes down, it will be his rushing yardage and TD's, but that's only because he won't need to run as much.
