Panthers trade for wide receiver Laviska Shenault

Shenault is not a good WR. Im not sure why they made this trade.

Sure, why not? Don't have any backup QBs and no kicker, so why not trade for a WR?

The Panther way.....

Maybe they are learning.  They did better with the Corral and nailed the Baker trade IMO.

He returned two punts in their last pre-season game. He fumbled one. Doubt he's in as an Andre Roberts replacement. 

Like everyone else, I hope he's here for a Curtis Samuel/Deebo/Cordarrelle Patterson role. Would be a good way to insure against CMC over-use.

IMO I see us carrying 7. Carrying 2 QBs gives us that flexibility. If any WRs were going though, Id guess Roberts or Zylstra, but Zylstra was great last year.

Shi probably made Roberts expendable. Which would give reason to needing another 6th WR cause Roberts was only going to be a returner. 

Sure, but Laviska isn't a 6th WR, he's our #3 right now (well maybe in a few weeks once he gets fully up to speed with the playbook and Baker).

My issue isn't with adding Laviska, as I like him as a player, my issue is that we're adding a player that I feel like we already have on the squad.  Not so sure Laviska has any more upside than Shi does, so why give up draft capital to add someone we already have and has looked great in camp this year?

The Rhule Panthers really love collecting the unwanted from the Jets, Jags, etc. 

Struggles to get open.   Slow. Watched a lot being a Trevor stan

It was a great move. Fitt is the best GM we have had. Lots are just bitching to bitch because of Rhule. Dont let the Rhule hate bleed over to Fitt. It is not Fitt`s job to coach.

Had 600+ yards on the train wreck that was the 2021 Jags offense.

I haven't seem what we gave up for him, but I sort of like him as a player.  (I mostly know him from fantasy football)
