Source: Panthers reached out to Allen Hurns and are interested.

[XClown1986]

They should be interested. And they need to give him a good offer. He is still young, he is a plug and play starter, and instantly makes our offense better.

Why do you guys think Hurns is more of a posession guy than an old Torrey Smith with brick hands. Smith had 2 more catches of 20+ yards last year. Hurns averages more yards a catch.

I think they fill the same role. IF we get Hurns, cut smith and use that money to bring in a safety, TE, or corner.

Maybe trade Funchess to a team for some more picks, keep Smith and Hurns.

Someone will overpay and regret the move down the road and it hopefully won't be us...

Like I said in the other thread. I'd love to have a rotation of Hurns, Smith and Funch on the outside with Byrd and Wright rotating in the slot. We can not count on Samuel, but could probably carry him on any way as the 6th WR.

With that said, he is better than Smith and I wouldn't mind cutting him or trading him if that's what needs to be done to bring in Hurns.

If anything, this seems like Hurney and Co. realize that the corner and safety free agent market is scarce and that it would be easier to address the wide receiver position in free agency and then address corner, safety, guard/tackle, and tight end in the draft. Just in my opinion but it seems like we are playing the free agent markets as well as the strengths of the draft.

1. Funchess, 2. Hurns, 3. Wright, 4. Smith, 5. Byrd, 6. Samuel allows for the Panthers to wait a year to draft a wide receiver and address the more pressing needs up front.

Or IR Samuel with the opportunity to return if he isn't ready to play come August.

No , why would we . The more weapons the better for cam 

Because we basically have less than 5 million left in cap space available for FA. We would have to free it up somewhere with the least amount of dead cap as possible. So, that at least brings his name to the table.

Can he play te though?
