Panthers running back DeAngelo Williamswas shocked to learn that none of the wide receivers who caught passes for Carolina last year would be back this year.

Asked on NFL AM about the departure of veteran receiver Steve Smith, Williams said he hated to see Smith go, but it went beyond just that. Williams said that he doesn’t know what the front office is thinking at the receiver position.

“We lost them all,” Williams said of the Panthers’ receivers. “That was tough, man. I played with Steve for eight years, and I know the chip he has on his shoulder, and he’s a playmaker. I couldn’t believe that we made those moves. Like, I’m still in shock. Not only did we lose him, but Ted Ginn Jr., Brandon LaFell, and [Domenik] Hixon.”

Asked if he feels that losing receivers puts more pressure on the running backs, Williams answered, “No, it puts more pressure on our front office because you make these moves, getting rid of four receivers, you’ve got to bring in guys.”

So far, the guys the Panthers have brought in are Jerricho CotcheryJason Avant and Tiquan Underwood. Williams was careful not to criticize his new teammates, but he clearly isn’t convinced that the Panthers can be as good in the passing game this year as they were last year. In that skepticism of the Panthers’ receiving corps, Williams is far from alone.

We can't be as good as the 28th offense in the league D-Will?  I mean, really?

I never liked DeAngelo. Just something about him. I don't believe these were great comments to make. He is trying to say that if the offense takes a step back it's the fault of the front office, not the other offensive players on the field.

 

If the people you bring in to replace those you let go are actually worse, then yes, it's the fault of the front office.

 

But the offseason isn't over yet.  Dwill knows this. We'll see how the draft goes.

Stewart and Deangelo have both made some comments/tweets this offseason about their frustrations. Want some of these guys to stay? Offer to take an outright paycut for doing nothing but riding a bicycle (Stew). I'm not going to knock a player getting his money and wanting all of it (I probably would too)...but at the same time, don't open your mouth about money issues and losing guys to the media when you're a huge problem to our current issue.

 

Instead, they can currently be found counting their Hurney money, being arguably the two biggest problems on the team cap wise.

I am still not convinced the people we brought in are worse then those let go. Dwill just needs to keep his mouth shut and play. If DeAngelo is in such distraught and shock about this then let him take a pay cut off his awful contract that is holding back the team so they can go get better WR that will make him feel better. I cannot wait until he is cut.

    • Why Ramsey? Is Horn already hurt or something??  Hes talking about the FSU kicker missing everything, is my guess. 
    • Lol ANYONE on the ice with Orlov got worse ratings because of i5.
    • I was taught by my role models, never give whores coke. Never.  This pink stuff is what Diddy made famous years ago and I'm sure it will get released during his case. Best I know in the current 2025, you are insane/playing with death taking any of coke, pink coke, or any designer drug. You 100% must use a drug testing method. Or watch someone do half the bag in front of you. Fent ruined the fun.  Glad I never developed addiction on dragons or white lady..... Im one of those rare weirdos that just doesn't have a addictive personality. Few times Ive gone from 2 fifths a day, stop the day after for years. But Ive never tired unnatural hardcore drugs. For some reason of fate, I always seemed to be projected from using it. Now Im too old for all that poo and the drug game is at the worst point in some time.  Plus I come to realize weed is boring, hate away but its the truth.  I had one guy that I trusted to get drugs, too smart for what he was. He told me three drugs I should never try are 70% and up meth, tren, and crack. He used a chemist until........ and said that pure meth was like nothing else and no side effects minus staying up if you took too much. Said the 92% pure meth was the worst(cause it was the best and nothing compared), then tren was terrible sleep/health problems/insane rage/ it just fugs with your thinking and mind patterns. Crack was one time when he was young and dumb, never did it again. Great guy, I was too lucky to have him around.
