Mike Williams rumor

We don't agree a lot, but you make a good point here. I can't really disagree with you on this one.

I've had him in fantasy for at least 3 of his seasons so far, maybe even a 4th, so I've tracked him week by week a lot.  Elite talent and a super tough guy as he is able to gut it out and play even when injured, but far too often he ends up not being a useful player on the field because of it.

If he was willing to sign a cheap 1 year prove it deal to try and bank in next season, then I'm all for signing him.  But I have a feeling someone out there is going to offer a multi year deal at $10+ a season, actually thought he was going to go to KC before they went and got Hollywood, that would have been a great fit.

I'd rather go after Gallup, who while he's also had similar injury issues as Williams, he'll probably come at half the price, thus making the risk far easier to swallow than what Williams could be, which is a an oft injured big cap hit.

For those not wanting to give folks clicks what does it say?

The first was that Morgan apparently liked a post about going after Williams and the latest was that we're brining him in for a visit.

Gallup is not the potential monster down the field that Williams is though. I think we need a tall bigger guy.

Not like Bryce has the arm to take advantage of what Williams can do downfield 

again, I think Williams is a beast, I just don’t think the contract it will take to sign him is worth the risk for where this franchise is right now.  He’s a high risk, high reward signing, that’s what contending teams go after, not ones in our state of a rebuild.

There are just so many X WRs in this draft, it makes signing Williams less necessary. I think Keon Coleman, Adonai Mitchell, Xavier Legette, or even Johnny Wilson could fulfill our need for a bigger WR. Plus, it would be on a rookie contract and someone to grow with our offense.

Another damn good point Bryce lacks arm strength! 

 

Man you been on fire tonight. You talking some sense into me. I'm seeing the vision and Mike just doesn't seem like the best fit for us. Good talent, but the QB is probably not the best fit for his strengths.

    • What I really learned here is that the Carolina Panthers aren't anywhere near as bad as I initially thought they were earlier this year.  We've got a young and growing offense with some promising parts. But it still needs some tweaks and improvements.  We really still could still use a dominant #1 WR. But Chubba,  Legette, Coker,  and J.Sanders have generally looked decent. Bryce took a big leap after the benching. We can score enough points to keep pace with 2x defending super bowl champions, so offense isn't a huge issue. Main thing that needs improvement is defense. We sorely need a CB 2, and a number of new players at Dline and LB.  We're not quite as bad at edge with Wonnum showing promise.  But we definitely need 1 or 2 more edges Clowney is old.  Run D is probably worse prevailing theme these past couple years. We really need a good young stud or two to pair with Derrick Brown and another LB to pair up with Trevin Wallace. If Morgan and Canales can focus on rebuilding the defense this off-season and possibly going out and getting a #1 WR. This team could easily be somewhere around 7-10 to 10-7 and flirting with playoffs in 1 or 2 seasons. Overall this game has made me feel alot more positive about the direction of the team.
    • With our picks we need pass rush, lb, Safety, a speedster yac wr, o line depth and I still want a mid round qb. We got 9 picks and 8 in the first 5 rounds. If they pull Off another solid draft we be cooking. 
    • We had one passing touchdown against the Giants and one passing touchdown against the Chiefs today. Yes a good backup can replicate that. And that is why Andy Dalton in significantly less games has the same number of 30 point outings as Bryce Young. I am on board with you guys about wanting to be hopeful for the future. Today was a good performance to build on especially at home. But let's please keep things in perspective. BTW the Bucs who honestly aren't even that good blew the doors off the Giants today after we went to overtime against them with 17 points. Again. Perspective.
