    3rd, 4th, he's worse than Funchess, Olsen, and McCaffrey. And probably Samuel too. It's not entirely coincidental Cam's best season came with Benjamin on the shelf.

    Like I said... Depends on your perspective... The stats this year might disagree with him being worse than all those guys...

    And Cam's best season might have had a lot to do with the schedule that year as well, and Olsen being huge for them, and having one of the best Defenses in the league that year... there are a lot of variables to Cam's best season other than just Cam and Benjamin...

    It’s an interesting move for a Panthers team that is 5-3 and in the thick of the playoff hunt, and who still doesn’t have the services of its top target in Olsen. But I guess they weren’t going to pay him in the offseason and at least got some assets back.

    P.s. I’m no Benjamin apologist, but I’m quite surprised to hear folks say Funchess is better. He’s terrible. Slow. Cumbersome. Not the best hands. Going to be interesting to see how he deals wth double teams and bracket coverage as the primary WR option.

    All of those perfectly describe Benjamin too. At least Funchess generally uses his size properly, Benjamin plays like a 5'6" WR.

    Like they're both terrible.
