Have we all seen WR D.K Metcalf?

We could use a tall WR who can actually catch the ball. That would have to be priority number 1, being that we struck out so hard on Funchess and Benjamin. 

I'm confused about the picture, is he the one on the left? If so he seems a bit bulky to be playing WR efficiently.

"Iowa State’s Hakeem Butler is not only the tallest wide receiver at this year’s combine (6-5 3/8), but his hands are also a freakish 10 34 — the same size as the largest hands in the NBA. The combination of Butler’s hand zone and his impressive 35 2/8 arms give him an incredible 83 7/8 wingspan; which mean he has the arms of a person who is 7 feet tall. "

Dude is a freak but so dam raw

They say his route tree is pretty limited

He missed most of last year with with a neck injury which he has since been cleared.

 

Doubt he makes it to 16.

Plus, our only DEs signed for next year are Addison, Obada, and Marquise Haynes.  And your solid starting DEs are going to be going for 14-15 on the market which we just cant afford.

 

 

Metcalf really reminds me of this guy though

Same size, projected speed, and about the same point coming out as far as route runners

One problem, football isn't bodybuilding.

The guy caught 26 passes for 569 yards in an offense that threw the ball 440 times for nearly 4200 yards.

This guy is the prototypical bust. Mediocre college production, but unreal physical talent and absolutely looks the part

Remember when David Boston swole up to such an absurd size and was out of the league shortly thereafter?

Yep. You don't need to carry a ton of muscle mass to play WR. Those knees don't know the difference between fat weight and muscle weight. Either way, they're carrying extra weight. How many great WRs have been built like bodybuilders? Jerry Rice is the GOAT and the guy was built like a bean pole while playing in a league that allowed DBs to be much more physical against WRs than today's NFL.

    • Canales was brought in to fix Bryce. That was how he sold himself. He failed.  the panthers need a new qb, someone to coach him, and someone to build a defensive staff.  Canales has failed at developing a new qb. His big draft project XL is trending towards bust. His entire nfl resume before the panthers was one season as offensive coordinator on a stacked Bucs team, and being on the offensive staff when a 31 year old Geno smith finally put it all together. And he didn’t even pick his offensive coordinator. Assuming evero is gone, who’s he got in that phone to call? What low lvl porn addict evangelical from the bucs is ready to be Peter principled? There is nothing in his coaching history or his current performance that indicates he’s the person to move this team forward. Every other team knew this last cycle (panthers were only interview) and nothing has happened to change that perception   all people like you have is “well you can’t do it again it’s too soon but <random interval of time> will be different.  just pull off the bandage. There’s no reason to let this guy draft “his guy” except people wanting an excuse not to fire him after 2025. 
    • Both Reich and Canales were saddled with trying to build and establish a viable scoring offense around Bryce Young. The best the offense looked this season and last season was with Andy Dalton who is also terrible but still better than Bryce Young. Which should be all anyone needs to know but still somehow there are weirdos here salivating over a ceiling of maybe on a really good day the 25th best QB in the league. We've already canned one entire staff over our first overall pick. You can fire everyone again to satisfy your need for vengeance and quickly come to the realization that your next hire will absolutely unequivocally be a downgrade yes man or you can blow up this QB room and then assess. If no progress next season then you can make changes and justifiably so.
    • Surprised this is the only post with this take.  This is like the Rhule kiss of death lol.
