Fingers crossed we're bothe proven right and wrong. Bryce become an elite franchise QB and TMac becomes an Alpha WR 

I said it a ton of times the last few months but I think it was overlooked or brushed off as just me pushing for my guy, but I think T-Mac is a PERFECT fit for Bryce and far better than the speedy quick twitch WR everyone has been wanting.

So maybe people will hear it better now that we took him.

Bryce doesn't have a cannon of an arm, so if you want the speedster to help take the top off the defense, then that was just a fallacy as Bryce doesn't have the arm to make that a true threat to force safeties to stay deep.  Bryce's deep ball is more of a heave for a jump ball, which is where T-Mac thrives, that's right up his alley and a great fit.

Then also, what Bryce does do well is place the ball with touch into tight spaces as opposed to fire those lasers into tight windows.

Again, perfect with T-Mac's size, catch radius, and hands.  Those back shoulder high and away throws with those two once they get their timing down is going to be lethal and impossible for any DB to break up.

And everyone's concerns about his separation is also overblown thanks to Bryce's anticipation ability.  He'll be throwing that ball before T-Mac makes his cuts so it's getting there right when T-Mac gets that minimal separation.  And since he catches the ball with his hands out away from his body, defenders won't be able to get in there and break it up when the ball is hitting him as soon as he turns to it.

Basically T-Mac's biggest strengths align perfectly with Bryce's strengths and in a way, his weaknesses as well.  I tried saying it before but I think too many people got caught up just wanting a speedster and couldn't see the forrest through the trees and see why T-Mac really was the perfect fit with Bryce.

Here's hoping now he's a Panther

I think it's funny people on here trying to compare him and Funchess like WTF!?! Funchess couldn't hold Tets jock. Funchess never even sniffed the stats Tet put up.

 

LFG!

The funny thing, I also have a random personal connection to Funchess too.

He's from my hometown and basically was the best football player to ever come from our town, before him it was probably Drew Stanton, but he moved into town for high school, Funchess grew up here.

I got to meet him the summer after we drafted him through a mutual friend and then was able to get him to sign the picture the next summer with "From [our hometown] to Carolina"

Now I need to get a picture with T-Mac and get him to sign it "Bear Down and Keep Pounding" as Bear Down is Arizona's motto.

The difference is I just thought it was cool for the Panthers to draft the best player from my hometown, not like I was pounding the table for it because I thought he was going to be a stud, which has been the case with T-Mac for a long time now with me here.

I'd say this is a pretty good analysis and I'm thinking this is in line with what Dan and Dave are planning for our offense since many of our WRs seem to fit this mold.

[Jon Snow]

It's Nalo! Get his nickname right at least. 

[LinvilleGorge]

@tukafan21 I'm happy for ya man. Drafting Julius Peppers is what originally made me a Panthers fan. When your college team isn't a traditional powerhouse you're not going to produce a ton of top shelf draft talent so it's even more exciting when your NFL team drafts one.

[ChibCU]

If we can get him to approach anywhere close to Mike Evans territory, he'll be a key part of our team. Excited we have a natural catcher with size. Still would like to get a shifty speedster next year, but that can wait.
