Worthy is fastest ever


Recommended Posts

Hey, hold on guys.  Remember, there are never players available at our pick.  They'll all be long gone.  As it always is, the draft ends before we pick.  Remember past year

Sorry, love the huddle logic lol.

As far as speed merchants go, at least Worthy has the ability to run routes too.  He's not just a vertical route guy.  He can operate in space.

Agree that Worthy looks like a football player and not just an underwear Olympics warrior. Good hands, good route running, great ability to track the ball - even in traffic, and obviously elite speed.

Question is, can Young (with his arm), get him the ball accurately and forty yards down field.

Haven't seen it yet on any consistent basis.

He can. Even if he couldn't, it doesn't matter. The team needs playmakers at WR, whether Young is the QB in the future or not.

I get the snark but our needs aren't changing no matter if Prime Cam was back there.

I like his teammate Mitchell more.  Ran the 4.3. The owners of the fastest combine WR runs also don’t have a great track record so you can only put so much in it.  Mitchell has the speed and NFL body

Yep the top 100 players will be gone by pick 33.

They won’t be I wish they would go back to back WR in the 2nd and 3rd.  There are too many good ones in this draft.   
 

 

Sounds like we are signing a FA OG, so maybe we double dip at WR if the value is right. I wouldn’t be against a cheap FA like Curtis as well to throw into the mix. We need a complete WR makeover.

I'll just say this....if he's the pick at 33 I won't be upset.

I won't necessarily be upset, but I will likely feel that we can do better. He has real limitations in terms of physicality. Contested catches? Blocking? Route running? None of those are checks.

For me, it will probably come down to who is on the board, and I'm just talking receivers; I haven't even gotten to the other positions yet.

Nope, not just the top 100.  Teams will be doubling and tripling down on picks to draft all 6,000 players before our pick!!!

I hope you know I'm kidding.  Huddle Logic is always "the last good player was picked before our pick."  Happens every draft.  I'm just being silly 😃

There's about 5-7 WRs I am totally cool taking about that point after the top 5 WRs are taken off the board.

I'm hoping that we can trade back and pick one of them up.

But there's also about 10-15 that if we got 2-3 of them I would be giddy with. I would like us to do nothing but play makers this year. 2-3 WRs, a TE, and a big workhorse RB. Gimme these guys.

I feel like we're always going to feel like we can do better than the guys we pick. There's always going to be arguments for and against them and someone guaranteed to bitch about the picks (these experts we have in here).

For me it's not really could we have picked someone better, it's "did we make the team better than it was?"

Imo, we're going to have to work hard to screw this up (making the team better). The unfortunate thing is we've got plenty of practice fugging things up. I just hope we've learned something.

    • 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
