It's not about talent, it's skill set. In my mind it's

 

X: Moore, Shenault

Flank: Marshall, Higgins 

Slot: Smith

 

That's the depth as I see it. Could Smith play flanker? Maybe sure but I think you're better off working mismatches or pulling safeties attention with him.

Shi probably has shown the most potential but Shi is a slot guy at this point.  You can't just take that type guy and throw him on the outside.  Then it doesn't work.   Shenault falls into this too.  He isn't the type WR you put on the outside because that isn't what he is. 

On the outside I think you simply rotate TMJ and Higgins on the outside.

Here's the interesting thing about Shenault. If we hadn't picked him up this season, you could make a strong argument that this team would still be winless. Seriously. If you take away his two big catches in the Saints game, I don't think the Panther would have won.

A 1-5 record is terrible, but it' better than 0-6 🙄

Shi Smith seems to be the number 2 already. Why I do not know. He gets targeted enough that he is most likely the first read. Why I do not know. 

FWIW, per the official depth chart, Shi is listed above all of them:

Position    1st                 2nd                        3rd    
LWR   - DJ Moore  Rashard Higgins    Laviska Shenault Jr.

RWR - Shi Smith    Terrace Marshall Jr.

Probably hanging out with Tavarez King somewhere.

I say let Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ for you laypersons) get the snaps and see if he's worth trying to salvage.

 

Either it works itself out or there's lingering pain there that will require some work (lul)

Baker would have been on IR after his first game. 

Smitty is a different cat, but all he needs, is to see the same flame in your eyes that he has in his.

Thats why Jake could go right at Smitty without Smitty decking him.

They've both mentioned it at different points.

Steve wouldn’t just snatch his throat out.  He’d take his manhood first.  Show the rest of the players he ain’t “it”.  Then after demoralizing and emasculating, he’d break his nose.

      Serious Thoughts Fellas What numbers would Bryce..

      By Icege · Posted

      Agreed. A healthy bit from column A (stats) and column B (film) paints the most accurate picture, which is currently that Bryce is not performing up to the standard a 1st round QB (let alone drafted #1 overall) is expected to (statistically). When we dig into the film to see why, we see that while he's having his struggles (not stepping up in the pocket, bailing out early, hesitating on some throws, making occasional bad reads, etc) the team that surrounded him last season was simply awful. Bottom 5 defense, bottom 5 OL, bottom 5 weapons... but somehow one player has to overcome ALL of that in their rookie season? Yeesh... Taking this season into consideration, he started where he left off last season and was rightfully benched. Since starting again, the team has gotten on its first winning streak in a few years and he's made good plays to keep them in the game. Is he lighting it up? Nah... but he is beginning to show the reason so many draftniks had him as QB1a for his class. Re: what the team does next season... who friggin knows anymore at this point T_T. Resign Dalton? Sign Jones? Draft somebody in the mid-to-late rounds? Go with another UFA? Maybe grab an FA that can compete with Bryce for the starting position and draft a rookie to sit and develop? Might be best of both worlds for the team, but ugh... not a fun position to still be in with question marks throughout the position group.

      Yeah, this is basically the same as asking, "What if Bryce Young suddenly had Patrick Mahomes brain, how would he do?" It isn't happening. This ship is beyond sailed. Send him somewhere else, let us move on and him move on.

      Dalton is too close to starting right now. If it hadn't been for a car accident, he still would be. Switching Dalton for Jones does nothing except reduce the backup's age by a decade. One is in his NFL prime, the other is almost in his NFL grave. Not a horrible move if you're trying to improve the team. We've got to get better as a team and a lateral move like that would improve the team. The problem isn't that he's close to starting. The problem is we have a GM that signed off on BY and didn't bring in any serious QB competition for camp, a HC that said yeah, he's my guy until BY poo the bed so bad he couldn't start him, and an offense that's limited because BY can't make all the throws a normal NFL QB can.  The problem isn't that Jones could be an improvement as a backup QB. The problem is he could be better than our "franchise" QB.
