Someone has to catch the ball but that doesn't mean someone has to have a FF impact
Car WR #s from a 12-4 team just 2 years ago...
Steve Smith 64 / 745 / 4TDs
Brandon Lafell 49 / 627 / 5TDs
Ted Ginn 36 / 556 / 5TDs
KB's strength is/was beating CBs off the line with strength + explosiveness and having a my ball mentality
Both of those things are arguably very important for rookies to be good at for immediate success as a WR1. Both of those things are weaknesses to Funchess game right now.
I do think...
Yep, staff seems to love him so it would be a surprise but would any cut really be a surprise after Smitty? seemingly a lot of reasons stacking up
1) Tolbert turns 30 in November (and broke his leg last year)
2) He is a FA after this year and he doesn't seem like a probable resign unless he...
I think you have to consider Tolbert as a surprise cut with Ward's play. Maybe Broeckel too
I also think Trusnik is a potential cut as Wegher has been playing so well on STs. We could go with just 5 LBs which would make space for Wegher.
Bloom seems split on Funchess too. He had him in his "undecided" range predraft. Post draft he moved him up to 19th explaining that Carolina doesn't have room for multiple FF WR2s. Short term I agree with that. Long term, I think Funchess vertical role in a potentially budding Cam pass offense...
That and rumors were cleveland was taking Funchess at 43
I think one big misconception about the NFL is everyone is too honest. Agents/media folks like Schefter are in cahoots with teams and will exchange favors to help eachother. This is one reason why you see UDFAs signed basically before the...
Something about how Arians was the only coach he would play for. He also talked oddly about having to start.
I am likely making something out of nothing but it rubbed me the wrong way.
The value just screamed bad for OT this year. With Lael dropping everyone jumped a spot. Scherff was a reach. Flowers was a reach. Peat was a reach. Ogbuehi won't play this year and went 21st.
I actually could see all OTs being misses relative to where they went. Expecially Scherff and Flowers...
Yes, seems to be lots of disagreement on his playing speed. I think his 40 time threw people off. The tape shows he can get separation vertically and also in short areas.
A Josh Norris quote on him...
Funchess can be a lethal vertical receiver, thanks to his downfield speed and potential catch...
Lots of criticism for Gettleman right now similar to this. I think some are missing that Panthers had 9 picks and a roster good enough they could not fit 9 rookies. No doubt they overpayed to move up, but Cleveland was rumored to be selecting Funchess at 43 and traded out when he went off the...
