DITTO-

I thinky he Got "Williamed"

(means you sit the bench way to long spoiling great talent)

Seriously. I mean when they called his number, rare as it was, he got open and caught the ball, but you can only do so much getting put in like 5 or 6 plays a game, and Jake doesn't spread the ball around to anyone else but Smith or Moose, and he'll force it to them before he looks Jarrett's way (or anybody else for that matter)

This kid's looking like a bust and it's not really his fault. He didn't drop any passes thrown to him but it's not like he got that many chances anyway, he was inactive for a lot of games.

That's the tough part about evaluating starters who underachieve (especially WR's and TE's). Is it because Delhomme isn't throwing to them? Or are they not getting open and doing their part? It's hard to judge without the advantage of game film to review it all.

Draft reports all stated that Barnridge could develop into a great receiving TE. I've always wanted a damn Panther's TE in the Delhomme era to have over 500 yards receiving. I hope we can get one in the next couple years.

Jarrett has all the physicality that screams possession receiver. Honestly, 6"4' and 219? Comeon! We need many more balls to him. Especially when it comes to short routes. Get him running those nice little 6-7 yard routes. If our running game continues as well as it did this year, we really only need Jarrett to consistently make those short catches and with that, the chains will move easily. Play him under Moose and Smith. I hate to say it, but look at what Kurt Warner did all year with those little dink and dunk passes. That crap makes 2nd and 3rd down insanely easy.

Not really along the lines of more opportunities, but I desperately hope Godfrey develops into a top-tiered FS. He had some big blown plays this year.

    • Because Young is so historically bad that it just skews too far outside the normal deviations that perspective is easily lost. That or they just don't want to believe it.  The struggles last year would have been more about the infighting and poor roster building or idiot owner's hiring practices than with Stroud. He wouldn't have been as good but he wouldn't have been ruined here and the pressure was not Carr-esk if you take out the Young created portion from his playing style.  Dude is a young guy on a team coached by a Defensive guy building a good D but not building up the O in year 2 of his HC 1st time gig. Seems familiar... Go look at his output this year and not just some crappy Thursday night implosion game, I would take that in a second and never ever look back every time without a shred of doubt while eating 4 of those games a year with a giant smile on my face. 
    • There is zero reason to sit him if he is ready to go.  Putting him on a shelf and attempting to protect does him no favors. 
    • Stroud us nit the first QB thus franchise has missed on. He also won't be the last.
