What to make if Ginn?

Now that he's a viable offensive threat, it's time to take him off of kick return.

 

Aw hell no.  That's a huge part of his value, at least for the time being.  Until he's playing every down and needs to conserve energy, or reduce risk of injury, etc., or when someone else better comes along, this dude has to return kicks too.  He's a proven threat there in a big way. Those rushing yards he picked up on one play were pretty cool too.

Ginn is our biggest threat to go deep right now. He's the WR with homerun potential. I love Smitty as much if not more than anyone else but he's not getting deep balls like he used to. And that's okay. Ginn stepping in to fill that void only makes Smitty more useful in other facets of the passing game.

 

Completely agree with this, I think Ginn and 89 compliment each other very nicely.

 

Ginn can definitely be more than just a returner for us, but we'll have to see.

 

Only on a 1 year contract, I guess he'll know he needs to work for it if he wants that extending.

How is that concerning?  Armanti only comes in when the Panthers run 4 WR sets which is pretty much never or someone needs a quick breather.  How could Armanti have possibly contributed?

 

 

He actually did contribute. It just didn't show up in the stat sheet. He ran a very crisp route on the deep touchdown to Ginn that cause the Safety to bite up and not cover the deep middle like he was supposed too. If the safety didn't bite down, Armanti would have been wide open with a ton of real-estate in front of him. 

 

It's not much, but it's something.

I have been particularly well impressed with Ginn's ability to catch the ball.  One of his main knocks coming to the Panthers was that he could not catch the ball, but so far I think his "hands" have been good so far.  Anybody got stats on his drop count versus other receivers on the team?.  Ginn is also very impressive  on how well he fields punts.  Looks smooth as butter. It is nice change not to worry if the punt returner is going to muff the catch. He has my vote for best free agent pick up this year (and perhaps  over several years).
