Our 1K Yard Receivers From Last Season Are Being Wasted By Darnold's Horrible Play

Yep deep ball placement is possibly Darnold’s biggest issue followed by decision making. 

That said, this pretty much directly  implies, or at least the thread title does, that TB was better when the same amount of yards were probably chopped up into a dozen 5-6 yard completions with zero ability to throw deep.

 I don’t understand what happened on the long ball. Maybe it’s a lack of  practice or repetition? I remember Darnold being money with USC, and the Jets on the long ball. Decision making was questionable at times at USC. The pressure up the middle could possibly have Darnold antsy and incapable of properly stepping into throws. Just a guess based on the elements.

Teddy was tops or near the tops last year in the same category. Also note, the #1 WR on this list is a guy Teddy *currently* throws to.

Robbie Anderson is pure trash this year and it has nothing to do with Darnald. Moore is going to get his this year because he's the only WR that can catch a ball. 

Actually it does.  Robby's catch rate was almost identical in his time with the Jets and Sam as it is this year.  I think I saw last year he was up in the 70s.  And he clearly wasn't loafing with Jets or we wouldn't have signed him...  it has to do something with his comfortability and ability to read the ball coming off of Sam's hand...  I guess almost like a batter being able to read and identify pitches as a pitcher releases them, and for that reason, why guys handpick who throws to them in HR Derbys.  They've just never been able to get on the same page, and it has nothing to do with effort.

      What top 10 prospect do you absolutely NOT want?

      I don't get the Hunter hate. Just imagine his ceiling if he stopped trying to be this 2way freak and focused on one side of the ball

      Is running back on the table for the panthers this draft?

      100%.  You have to play the cards that are dealt.  Not the cards you wish were dealt.

      I'd say its definitely going to be addressed this off-season.  We went into the last draft with a roster of RBs including:  Chubba, Blackshear, and Miles Sanders. We picked Jonathan Brooks in the second and still signed Rashaad Penny afterwards.  Fast forward....One turned into a top 10 back, 1 is injured/out for most if not all the '25 season, 1 retired, 1 will either take a huge paycut or be cut, and the last is a restricted free agent. We brought in Mike Boone as well. Add him to the free agent list also.  We need a physical option.    Which qualifies:  Ashton Jeanty(Boise St): Overall ranked Top 10. Almost 2k yards after contact, 28 tds. Would take our first rounder. My money would be on an NFC East team selecting him. (97.2 PFF run grade) - 121 forced missed tackles.  Omarion Hampton(UNC): Ranked everywhere from 20 - 59 overall. Consensus #2 back after Jeanty. He'll be a second rounder. 1,222 Yards after contact w/ 15 tds.  (90.5 PFF run grade) - 72 forced missed Tackles Kaleb Johnson(Iowa): Ranked from 38 - 69 depending on which media outlet you prefer but generally #3. 2nd/3rd possibly. 1,060 Yards after contact w/ 21 tds.(86.7 PFF run grade)- 66 forced missed tackles Cam Skattebo: Ranked from the 50's - 104. Every mock I do he ends up BPA at some point. 969 Yards after contact w/ 17 tds(92 PFF Run Grade). Probably the best receiving back of the group. 81 forced missed tackles.  If the '24 and '25 draft classes were combined, IMO the rankings would be, in order: Jeanty, Hampton, Brooks, Johnson, Skattebo. I wouldn't take one high but I'd take one for Chubba and Brooks insurance.
