I truly like the kid, but letting Samuel go into FA...

Rhule had a clear plan about our receiver group and before hindsight/the season starts. That group is special.

and retaining Moton. Showed we are in a different era, there's going be some up's and downs but at the time I didn't see, or believe our WRs would look stronger after losing Samuel especially how he played for us last year.

Couldn't agree more. I love Samuel and wish him a ton of success in Washington. But letting him go was the right call. And it's no contest. Plus having the foresight to get a player like Marshall in the draft allows us to have leverage with Robby next season instead of cornering ourselves when his contract is up (if Marshall performs). It feels like there's actually a plan with these moves and many aren't being looked at in a funnel, but more a bigger picture / longer term.

Moves like that make you smile. We should never pick a #3 WR when we have questions about retaining someone like Moton. Can you imagine our line right now without him?

The move by Hurndog still makes you cringe at how typical it was for him to let someone like Bradberry walk and sign Shaq to a huge deal. We could have tagged and traded and the least.

We have a long history of making the wrong decision when having to decide between two players.

That's why I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt whenever possible. Fitterer too. 

Is BC RT, LT, guard?    Not sure, but Rhule has a clear plan.

Why did we bring in a bunch of often injured vets at CB, LT, LG, LB?   Not sure, but Rhule has a clear plan.

Sam Darnold?!?!    Not sure, but Rhule has a clear plan.

Try to forget about what happened to Josh Norman then... 😬

Same.  As much as I enjoyed Samuel’s time here, he was often injured and didn’t really excel until that last year with us.  He’s been hurt already for WFT as well.  This WR group looks very good.  It was a rough day at practice, but we know what DJ and Robby can do, and TMJ has looked great so far in camp (aside from drops today).  Shi Smith has flashed.  David Moore is a guy who can make a play if his number is called.  Really exciting times.  Can’t fix every position in one offseason.

      Before Shadeur Sanders there was Ryan Mallet

      By Waldo · Posted

      He was always the guy who didn't care about practice or being prepared. That works when you are a freak athlete and aren't in a position that has to do those things. What made Dion work as an athlete is what makes him a terrible agent. Yeah he has always been a pooshow. His kids probably think it's normal but Shaduer just paid the price big time. Started the video and it's already Dion bonkers lol

      This is also why in a way, I don't want T-Mac to get to 1,000 yards, because I think it means XL or Coker took a step back. While maybe that would be good for T-Mac's growth, I have absolutely zero, in fact, less than zero concern about T-Mac becoming THAT guy for us and being a Top 10 WR every year with legit Top 5 potential. And even though I have faith that XL and Coker can be that 2/3 combo next to T-Mac in the future, I have far more concern in the two of them getting there than T-Mac being that #1, so their growth is "more important" to me this season than T-Mac's, in that sense. Thielen's presence will suppress the numbers T-Mac/XL/Coker put up, but his presence is what is best for Bryce's growth, which is more important than anything with the WRs this year because we need to know if he's going to be that franchise QB for us. If Bryce already proved himself to be that guy, Thielen isn't even on the team this year and none of this is a debate, then yes, T-Mac would HAVE to put up 1k this season.

      I’m ready to fall in love with the Carolina Panthers again

      I've gone back to buying Panthers merch for the first time in a couple of years. Have some optimism for the first time since we drafted Bryce, which quickly met it's downfall.  Don't fug this up, Panthers.
