It’s too early to write Mingo, obviously. And he has had 2 games with 50 yards receiving. But that’s it. No TD’s. Other rookie WR’s are beginning to take off. And then there’s Marshall who is only seeing a 50% snap share with an 11% target rate.
We’re all talking about what it took for Carolina to get Young, but it’s also worth noting in the last 3 drafts, the Panthers have used a 39th, 94th, and 59th overall picks on Mingo, QB Matt Corral, and Marshall Jr. Yikes.
I guess ultimately my question is what do you think the ceiling for these WR would be in a different system? Or do you just think they were overdrafted to begin with?
As someone who has been hard on Mingo, you’re probably right.
It’s thought when you occasionally just see him be lazy on his route and sort of give up. Not always obviously, but been a few times
