Yeah, so I'm starting a new one.

With Gettis returning, how do you all think the WR/TE picture will shake out next season. Personally, I'd like to see:

WR

Steve Smith

Brandon LaFell

David Gettis

Legedu Naanee

Kealoha Pilares

Armanti Edwards (Maybe)

TE

Greg Olsen

Jeremy Shockey

Gary Barnidge

Armanti is a maybe for me. If he makes progress as a returner or as a receiver this offseason, keep him. If not, part ways ASAP cause he's just eating cap space for nothing.

Lafell, Pilaries, and Smith will be the only WR left on team. Gettis will have to prove his worth again. I see carolina going out and getting a free agent wr, spend the draft on defense and an ot. With Cam rushing/passing the ball so well, both deangelo and stewart become trade bate. Stewie seams to run the screen more so so I forsee deangelo being traded. Things are going to get very crazy in the off season resulting in a Superbowl run in 2012.

There are two questions irt Gettis.

1. Will he be able to return at 100% next year. I was listening to one of the local sports medicine doctors associated with Wake Forest a few months ago, and he said it can take as long as 2 years to recover fully from an ACL injury. So its not a certaintity that Gettis will be at 100% next year. If he doesn't, then I feel ok with Smith/Lafell/LN/Gettis (in a part time role), but it means we might have to look at a future replacement for Smith in case Gettis doesn't pan out.

2. If he does come back at 100%, will he actually be as good as we think or hope. Only playing time will answer that question.

To answer your question, my belief is that the receiver picture will look much the same next year as it does this year, but with Gettis being worked into the lineup, proably at the expense of Nanee.

Regarding the Tight ends, I am not sure if we will sign Shockey again. He has been great this year, but with Olsen in the fold, the staff might decide to see what they have in Barnidge.

Gettis's straight line speed will probably be unaffected when he comes back, but his ability to stop and start and make cuts on a slant may be diminished the first year.
This is true. My Dad had an ACL replacement. It needed months to really settle in there good, but a year later it was like it never happened. But he wasn't running receiver routes XD.

This fine young male ass board won't let me start a thread, this seems like a good spot for this.

Goodson hasn't sniffed the field all year. I understand that Williams and Stewart have the position on lock down, but there is room for a third back to get a few snaps. I feel like he is not well liked by the coaching staff. I believe this is his third year, is he a free agent in the offseason? I am assuming he'll bounce if that is the case.

Do research before opening your mouth and letting so much stupid spew out.

Scroll to the bottom to the area titled "Injured Reserve"

      Dave Tepper gives Canales and Dan Morgan vote of confidence

      By mav1234 · Posted

      There's some big assumptions in here - first, I think Canales HAS helped Bryce a poo ton. To pretend he hasn't is asinine. Has he fixed him?  I mean, the dude looks like he could perhaps be a backup or low-end starter now, whereas he looked like he didn't belong in the NFL a year ago. You're talking about a coach that brought one of the worst NFL QBs of all time to a point where he may actually be a low-end starter. That IS impressive. Second, the bolded. Come on - given the offense, the dude is far from "trending towards bust." He definitely needs work but he's shown an impressive ability to get open. He's contributing to an anemic offense. The dude is our leading receiver (though he'll be #2 in yardage by end of season by a little, as Thielen does better per game).  As to his coaching, he had this team competing and believing against 3 of the better teams in the NFL, despite the lack of talent, and despite our QB situation.  Yes, things fell apart vs DAL, and he was outcoached. But that will happen with young coaches IMO.  I don't think it indicates he cant' be better. The idea of "pulling off the bandage" is ridiculous. Who would want to coach here if we fired this guy after one season?

      Has this game changed feelings about Young?

      By electro's horse · Posted

      Whatever they are in totality the cowboys are beat up all to hell on both sides of the ball and even that was too much for lil Bryce to overcome.  Bryce defenders have to hype up every other team and trash every other part of the panthers just because of the situation they’ve put themselves in.

      BREAKING: Panthers Announce Four Moves Including LB Trevin Wallace To IR

      By SCO96 · Posted

      JB had a first round grade in the eyes of a lot scouts based on HIS TALENT LEVEL. If not for the injury he would have gone higher in the draft, possibly between the middle and the end of round 1. To get him just before the 50th pick is a steal. He'd be on a 4 year deal. You can't even renegotiate until the end of the season 3. You're basically paying him nothing for 3 seasons. I don't buy into all back are interchangeable. No they're not. You have average backs, good backs, then your great-exceptional backs. The latter category doesn't grow on trees. If a back is special it pays to keep them. The key is knowing the difference between the first two categories and the third one.
