Naanee has 239 yards on the season and LaFell has 276. So going by a quick glance at a stat sheet it seems their production is pretty comparable. But lets dig a little deeper and look at production with their number of opportunities factored in.

Brandon LaFell

Targets: 24

Receptions: 17

Percentage: 70.8%

Yards: 276

YardsPerTarget: 11.5

Touchdowns: 2

Legedu Naanee

Targets: 45

Receptions: 22

Percentage: 48.8%

Yards: 239

YardsPerTarget: 5.3

Touchdowns: 0

If you apply his current production to a full 16 games Naanee is on pace for 90 targets, 478 yards and 0 TDs for the year.

Now if you supplant Naanee with LaFell and use his current yards/TDs per target (at least in theory *insert spooky music*) given the same amount of targets LaFell would be on pace for 1035 yards and 7-8 TDs.

Of course a million things change when you switch players roles, increase their involvement, ect but I thought it was interesting none the less.

We should just bring in TO, that will solve this.

Typing up a thread on that as we speak.

Neither one impress me. Lafell looked like he was out of breath catching the 4th down pass. He looked like he was running in sand.

Cud u further elaborate why he doesnt impress you? Is there a reason outside of him not running fast enough on a huge conversion to keep the game alive?

      What top 10 prospect do you absolutely NOT want?

      I don't get the Hunter hate. Just imagine his ceiling if he stopped trying to be this 2way freak and focused on one side of the ball

      Is running back on the table for the panthers this draft?

      100%.  You have to play the cards that are dealt.  Not the cards you wish were dealt.

      I'd say its definitely going to be addressed this off-season.  We went into the last draft with a roster of RBs including:  Chubba, Blackshear, and Miles Sanders. We picked Jonathan Brooks in the second and still signed Rashaad Penny afterwards.  Fast forward....One turned into a top 10 back, 1 is injured/out for most if not all the '25 season, 1 retired, 1 will either take a huge paycut or be cut, and the last is a restricted free agent. We brought in Mike Boone as well. Add him to the free agent list also.  We need a physical option.    Which qualifies:  Ashton Jeanty(Boise St): Overall ranked Top 10. Almost 2k yards after contact, 28 tds. Would take our first rounder. My money would be on an NFC East team selecting him. (97.2 PFF run grade) - 121 forced missed tackles.  Omarion Hampton(UNC): Ranked everywhere from 20 - 59 overall. Consensus #2 back after Jeanty. He'll be a second rounder. 1,222 Yards after contact w/ 15 tds.  (90.5 PFF run grade) - 72 forced missed Tackles Kaleb Johnson(Iowa): Ranked from 38 - 69 depending on which media outlet you prefer but generally #3. 2nd/3rd possibly. 1,060 Yards after contact w/ 21 tds.(86.7 PFF run grade)- 66 forced missed tackles Cam Skattebo: Ranked from the 50's - 104. Every mock I do he ends up BPA at some point. 969 Yards after contact w/ 17 tds(92 PFF Run Grade). Probably the best receiving back of the group. 81 forced missed tackles.  If the '24 and '25 draft classes were combined, IMO the rankings would be, in order: Jeanty, Hampton, Brooks, Johnson, Skattebo. I wouldn't take one high but I'd take one for Chubba and Brooks insurance.
