REPORT:Panthers address its need for speed at the receiver position during the draft’s 2nd day

[rodeo]

Henderson looks exactly like a Gettleman pick.

Clearly referencing zay jones, dude would come in and be our #2

Not for drafting guys rounds earlier then expected,If it's one thing I'd wish for,in this upcoming draft is for dg not to get cute with picks like he always does. Small school project players are meant to be drafted in the late 4th and 5-7th round imo. Wouldn't mind drafting him but if it's at the cost of passing on guys like say jones and other defensive prospects that may have fallen I'd rather risk waiting til the later rounds

Mixon has a better chance of being a Panther than Westbrook

He doesn't seem that fast from the highlights. Not sure he would open up things with his speed the way Ted did for us, by forcing opponents to adjust for his speed

I'm seeing plenty of references to him as a day 2 guy. It seems he's on everyone's radar now. A good assortment of fan bases are discussing this guy as a day 2 pickup for his explosiveness. It seems ours is just late to the party.

Maverick and Goose inconsolable

Stop looking at the name on the front of the jersey, Henderson is extremely talented and is certainly worth of a day 2 pick.

Matt Harmon is the best WR analyst I've found and he's a huge fan.  Read this and then tell me he would be a reach:

Specifically pay attention to his success rate versus coverage broken down by route tree.  He is always open.

Agree, that's actually a tall order for any rookie. Teddy had his faults but a 10 year vet speedster isn't that easy to replace. Regardless of drops, he was a weapon the opposing defense had to plan for. That's half the battle.

So true.  I'm really wishing we hadn't let Ted walk this year.... at least not before finding a replacement.  He and Cam had some good chemistry and Ginn was very definitely a weapon.  Certainly our games were not DULL with him in a Panthers uni - amazing TDs, and yes, those agonizing drops...  a memorable player for sure. 

Very much hoping we find a guy with speed and who can get separation and YAC in this draft.  Our WR group has me very worried at the moment.

I don't care who the Panthers draft as long as I have personally heard of him . Makes me feel validated.

I guess I'm just referring to drafting him at 40, if we happen to keep the 40th pick, that would be one of our best chances to grab someone who's fallen out of the 1st round, which this year it could be anyone, and a very good player at that. Also the slim possibility to trade back in the second would exist. After 40, I'm game for drafting him.

You must not have been following Dede and the concerns about his past.

Jones, Westbrook, and Ardarius Stewart would probably be the top 3 on my WR wishlist in the 2nd round.

Yes to Stewart. I'd say he may even be the 3rd best WR from the draft with the most upside out of any of them.
