Curtis Samuel Gets Open...

Geesh, I know he seems to get hurt every other play but man when he’s on the field he seems to always be open and I don’t have a problem with his hands. I remain behind the pick because he seems to be exactly what the doctor ordered in the slot. That said wright and Co. have done nothing to succeed the right to be the number 2-3 wr... I wonder will he even get a shot at this point to prove he can win the job?

Yeah and after missing the first part of camp too this was a very welcome sight. Very excited about our group of WRs. Every single one of them has things to like. Funch, Moore, Smith, Wright, Samuel and Byrd. Compare that to our WRs against the Aints in the playoffs last year...

Right now IMO

Its Wright, Moore, and Samuel as our top 3 WR

 

Funchess just hasnt shown anything this camp.

 

Jackson gets a ton of shout oits of the camp he's having.  But you seeing a common theme, multiple Jackson breakups on who else?  Funchess, and no one else. 

He slipped on a comeback route tonight and id give him a pass if this hasnt happened multiple other times.  And the fact that Moore and Samuel havnt had that problem tonight

Torry Smith is also there who didn’t play tonight I don’t think so thay clusters things up even more. So the team is gonna have funchess, Moore,Smith,Wright, samuel/ Byrd. His margin for error or even getting injuried is very small. He could easily slip in the depth chart and never recover or be traded or released. That said I love his talent and want him to win the number 3 job.

    • I mean it's not even like this was his worst game of the season... I'm not done with him by any means but this feels more the norm for him than the exception:/
    • I'd give it a C mainly because of Brooks.  If we just didn't have a 2nd I'd argue B to B+ tbh. Brooks was a bad gamble, tho one that could still pay off long term. Yes XL only has 400 yards but... Look who is throwing him the ball. And I think he isn't a "true #1" but he's been able to consistently get open. Hands definitely need to be cleaned up.  But he should end the year with 500-600 yards. Like you said - Sanders looks great.  Get him a better QB / more time with a QB and I think he's gonna impress. We added a couple rotational players on D that have both made plays and show promise for the future from later rounds. So I'd say, Brooks really hurts this drafts grade. It'll be interesting to see how it progresses over the next 3 years. I've overall really liked Morgan's FA acquisitions, so...
    • Oh he would absolutely flourish. It’s the panthers way. It’s no different with coaches. Sometimes they reach their expiration date, go somewhere else, and find new success.  Similarly to Burns, how long to wait for the light to finally turn on?  Market forces will demand a salary that the panthers can not responsibly match. Sliding him to guard will fit his skill set better, but he has played LT for 3 years. He will receive offers from other teams wanting to pay him LT money.  At guard, he won’t start with what they have paid Hunt and Lewis. Center then?? Dunno. Maybe? He will become a backup by default once they draft their stud LT. I doubt Dan just stands pat. That’s not his MO.  So where does this put him? Can you match what other teams will offer for a backup LT/guard? Do you dish out franchise LT $ on a guy who still needs significant improvement in pass protection. This team will be DOA in the playoffs with the very first team who has a formidable speed rusher. What if he has hit his ceiling in pass protection already and they sign him long term? It’s a big gamble either way.
