The Panthers STILL need WR help.

[Jackofalltrades]

Normally, year 3 for a WR is the breakout year.

But also, a WR is usually the EASIEST postion to hit the ground running in.

I'm worried about him.

You mean RB is the easiest- WR's normally take a couple of seasons to develop for a reason. I like Jarrett and thought he played well, Jake rarely goes that far in his progressions. Jarrett will play a bigger role next year.

As for getting another receiver, I'd like to see Moore, Robinson or Carter step up as small, fast, slot guys. I'm more worried about replacing Smith or at least adding another big play guy to the passing game.

We'll be fine at WR. It's not like Jake is spreading the wealth. I think that gps locking device he has on smith can be attributed to the progression, or lack thereof, concerning Jarret. In Jarret's defense he made key 3rd down conversions and when he actually got a chance to play looked good. I'd also give Hackett another year. Lets remember that the style of offense we run is predicated off the run. It's not like we're running an offense like lets say the cards, Chargers, or Colts where Jake is chucking it down field 85% of the time. However he does chuck it to smith most of the time when we do throw it, even into double triple coverage-- that's the problem.

I honestly don't see any GLARING weaknesses in our offense and am pretty optimistic about it going into next season.

First we need a offense that uses 3-4 WR. effectively

[Mr. Scot]

Put a Jason Witten/Todd Heap type TE out there that is a solid blocker while also being a legitimate receiving threat and I'm fine going into next year with the receivers we have now.

im trying to think of a way you could be more wrong

maybe if you had said quarterback

[Fiz]

like seriously how do you say this

Normally, year 3 for a WR is the breakout year.

then this

But also, a WR is usually the EASIEST postion to hit the ground running in.

and think "hmm yase this is a good post"

[Jangler]

First we need a offense that uses 3-4 WR. effectively

First we need a QB that can see 3-4 WRs. Maybe the new QB coach will help with that.

[beastson]

I disagree

Last year Jake threw to them. Just couldn't catch

This year we just threw to Moose and Smith, and ran ran and ran

I think he throws where you tell him to throw to. Run plays for others, he throw to them

[ladypanther]

We we will be fine at WR. Moose has a couple of good years, at least, left in him. Jarrett looked good when he got touches. Carter and Robinson will be back. Maybe Rip can help Jake to spread the ball around a little.

[panth3rz72]

i agree. moose only has about 1 or 2 years left. i have an idea that will help us with our qb problem. Trade moose and peppers for an awesome qb. someone like mcnabb. OR, an awesome wide reciever like larry fitzgerald. Then In the draft get whichever position you didnt trade for, and a corner back.

[ladypanther]

Moose will retire as a Panther.

I wish I would have started this exact same topic.

I think that we need to be able to line up with 3 wide out's and sneak a good run in there. If we can keep the defense honest even when we are in a 3 wide set, then I think that can open up more options down the field. The lack of diversity in our offense allows defenses to adjust fairly quickly. Our receivers are fine, we just don't utilize most of them.

way to drop the ball, ya tool
