Trade speculation: Hunter Renfrow

[PantherPhann89]

We do need help at WR but for 1. We need a burner to take the top of. 2. We need a shifty WR that can create separation, he may fit this not sure. 3. Trading away draft picks isn't going to help our current trajectory.

Trade for Higgins or Metcalf? Do you ever want to make a draft pick again?

And we all know the first game they don't go for 100 yards and 2 TDs you'll be talking about how they're a #2 at best. They've failed to live up to the ridiculous standard of the mythical "Huddle #1 WR". We need a TRUE #1. 

You draft a QB like young to lessen the need for a true #1 WR.

fug them picks.

Let’s see what we have in Chark/Mingo/Theilen/TMJ/Shenault by the trade deadline. Lots of unknowns.
 

Trading for Renfrow would make the Theilen signing pretty pointless imo. 

If we can get Chark back in the mix (hopefully this week?) it would go a LONG way.  We have zero speed and nobody who even poses a real threat to take the top off of a defense. Chark is tall and fast and is a deep threat.  Does anybody know his status for Monday?  Still questionable?

Or draft prospects either. So what are they actually good at?

Not sure why he automatically assumes that we'd be the highest bidder.

Because Fitterer loves to get into a good bidding war with himself

What's to develop? We already know he's a failed draft pick since he was drafted by Scott Fitterer.

You're getting the hang of this.

We already have a slow white boy at WR.

I wouldn't be against getting HR for a conditional 7th rounder, however, with AT19 on the team his role on the team would be as a back up or show that signing AT19 was a mistake, which I feel it wasn't if AT19 is used properly.

I think the big challenge for the panthers is to develop Ihmir Smith-Marsette into something usable on offense.  The dude ran a 4.42 40 yard dash.  That shows he has enough speed to take the top off a defense, or at least take one defender out of the equation.  I think once he is fully up to speed on the playbook you will see him as a larger part of the game plan.

If, by mid season, we have Chark on one side, Mingo on the other, AT19 in the slot and using Marsette as our other speed guy in 4 or 5 wide sets, our offense will look much better.  TMJ is built to be a bog over the middle/goal line/sideline catch guy.  He isn't going to be a deep threat.  Unless he gets in better shape and learns a more defined route tree he isn't a game changer.

You don't need a true WR1 anymore. You need guys that can get open. Is it nice to have a Tyreek, JJ or Chase? Sure. But the Chiefs just proved you don't need it to win. A SB.

Maybe trade a conditional 7th for a new hammy.

An elite WR has never been a must have roster piece. Honestly, QB is the only must have roster piece. You need a solid OL, but you don't need five All-Pros. You need a pass rush but you don't have to have that one stud pass rusher. You need offensive skill position weapons but you don't have to have that one elite WR. You'll take the elite talent wherever you can get them, but outside of QB the rest of the roster is a collection of the whole. Too many people get caught up in trying to find stars at key positions but no team has stars at all those key positions.
