Maybe Steve Smith actually did draft Mingo

Smitty generally has pretty good takes on WR prospects. Everyone gets it wrong on occasion. But he really has just seemed like a Panthers mouthpiece since Tepper took over. Those are probably some really nice under the table PR checks he's cashing.

He has said he doesn’t get paid by Carolina. Whether it’s true or not is just guessing. You have to think he was all about Young and Mingo so naturally he is going to be pretty defensive about their play.

He acts like a guy getting paid by Carolina.

It always felt to me like he got caught up in Bryce getting constantly criticized for his size and he took that personally.

When I watched Bryce on college I saw a great college QB with very marginal NFL physical talent. I really didn't want him but ultimately let the weight of everyone else's opinions make me okay with him assuming that I'm probably wrong if all these other people don't have concerns about what looks very obvious to me

 I still thought the pick should've come down to Richardson vs. Stroud.

Hey guys he is a rookie...give him time. He gonna make mistakes, others are getting time right? And Mingo wasn't even labeled pro ready.

My problem with Mingo was he didn’t produce in college either even in a Kiffin offense. Ole Miss had a string of 1k yard receivers and top talent and Mingo was supposed to be that next guy up and he just couldn’t produce.

Seems like this front office is putting more emphasis on RAS scores and interviewing then simply watching how they play on the field

Disagree.  Ever since he told me Ryne Robinson was the next Steve Smith I've been weary of his talent evaluation

    • Easily. To be able to plug in a backup LT without much drop off from your starter? That could mean the difference between playoffs or sitting at home in January. Good/serviceable smart young and healthy LTs that won’t lose you a ball game at reasonable $$ don’t just come along every day. Everyone talks about the most important positions on a football team… backup LT is in the top 10.  Picture next year… the team is scrappy and competitive, 4 and 3 record, second place in the South. Morale is good. devastating run game that Let’s our marginal defense get plenty of rest. We play the Bucs and win, going to 5 and 3, but we lose Ickey to a high ankle sprain. Atl loses that week and are now at 5 and 3 as well. There is no Ickey and no BC because we let him go… and we go in to Atl the next week for a battle of first in the south. Week after that is the Jets…. Now they lose both by 10 and 3, respectively, and fall to 5 and 5 going in to their bye week. Atl is at 7 and 3. Out of typical Panthers desperation, they try to rush Ickey back in to the lineup with a saints game coming up…  Back to good old Panthers football, always playing catchup. Another season at .500 and the fans sadly rejoice in mediocrity, when playoffs were in reach. This team always overestimates its ability to pick up quality o line depth in the draft or FA and it always blows up in their faces. Like Chuba, I see him as being part of the core that Dan is trying to build. Work on his contract now and see if we can come out with something mutually beneficial. I’d consider 3 yrs at $25m to be very fair. 
    • it would be great to have "double trouble" again, I even had a T- shirt for Williams and Stewart and the double trouble logo, was a great time to be Panthers fan. We shall see...
    • Sounds like a plan. Those are the teams we should be mimicking! lol
