He bet on him self this year and failed in Washington. I would say partly due to injury and the fact that Washington is a dumpster fire. I am not saying to bring him in here to be a #1, more just for competition. If he would come on a team friendly contract I would be all for it. He is 6'4 with sub 4.4 speed. He has a ton of upside and way less of a risk then someone like Josh Gordon. (Who by the way is not a FA for everyone drooling over him) I would be happy with FA/Draft #1, Funchess, Pryor, and Samuel / Byrd who ever can stay healthy. 

Haven't really seen his name mentioned so wondering what you guys think about him.

I 100% want Pryor in a panthers uni.  I know he had issues this year, but the offense in Washington doesnt fit him.  He is the kind of receiver that Cam likes, he isn't a timing precision route runner, he is big and uses his size well.  Cam waits for a guy to get open before letting loose which is what he does well while The redskins offense is all timing based and designed to throw to spots.  He basically had a 1000 yard season with cody kessler throwing to him while doing exactly what cam likes to see in receivers.  IMO, get him here and watch him flourish.

Looks like a pretty mixed bag...what were we supposed to take away from this?

i thought he did well as a WR in his fourth week of playing the position against one of the better CBs in the league.except for a couple passes at the end looked like he was giving norman more than he could handle.

I think Pryor is a #2 at best, but thats a stretch plus we have Funchess who is a #2 with potential to be a decent #1. Pryor is a good deep threat with good speed and I believe he would be an asset here, but not the do-it-all rare breed WR that so many are looking for(good luck finding that guy).

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist

      Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.

      Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
