Anyone else upset we haven't locked down Chark? Not saying he is great but it gives us a number 1 that has to be accounted for which puts every other receiver exactly where they should be, meaning Theilan 2 , CMJ 3. N Shi 4. Am I crazy

No. He's not worth getting upset over. He's ok would be a nice piece but nothing to get excited over.

All of these people use likely well intending people making educated guesses. , "per sources" probably means all the anchors and writers, and twitter analysts reference each other for content

I believe these FA signings have showed us that Carolina has bought 2 years to find the future at TE and WR. Hurst and Thielen are on the wrong side of 30 and are a temporary fix....though will be productive here for the next couple of seasons.

We've got the next two offseasons to figure out our WR1 and TE1 of the future.

Thielen I agree with, Hurst only has 5 years worth of wear.  Can def see using him to set the foundation for passing TEs in the offense and bringing along more guys with his skillset by the sunset of his contract.  Get guys in to surpass him on a rookie deal or make a splash in FA in a few years. I could see him here for up to 5 years health and production dependent.

Chark deal shows we either gonna see if he's healthy enough for an extension after the season or we'll def be in the market for a WR in the draft.  The 1 year deal doesn't resolve the need in my eyes.

No, but it does give us more time to draft one and let him learn behind these vet guys for a whole year. Everything time wise is being set up perfectly.

Exactly, I still think we target one. Yet it gives us the ability NOT too if there's a better defensive prospect.

    • Trying to help those 3 folks who hate this move.    In 2025 2.75 million is basically the new "vet" minimum.    They still need #3 RB and returner, draft could/should be the lane for that.    There's no downside to this move, they could cut with little effect and replace with your chosen rookie.   
    • Is it though? Even looking at just this past year, DK played 3 more games and had 81 more yards than Higgins had, but he also did it on less catches, with DK averaging 15 yards per catch and Higgins with 12.5. Yes, Higgins had 10 TDs to DK's 5, but I'd say that was far less about the WRs than the QBs, seeing as Burrow had 43 TDs (and only 9 INTs) to Geno's 21 TDs (and 15 INTs).  Swap the two of them last year and DK puts up better stats with Burrow as his QB than Higgins did, no doubt about it in my mind. DK has also only missed 3 games in his career, Higgins has missed 5 in each of the last 2 seasons. People here complain about our WR speed (and it's many people's biggest issue with T-Mac in the draft), but Higgins ran a 4.59 40 and DK ran a 4.33. DK has only played one more season than Higgins but he has 1,730 yards and 14 TDs more than Higgins, despite playing with the ghost of Russell Wilson and Geno Smith, while Higgins has had Burrow. To me, there is no debate, DK is a significantly better WR than Higgins.  Give him Burrow as his QB during his career and his numbers would dwarf what Higgins has put up.
