Are 2nd Rounders Terrance Marshall Jr and Jonathon Mingo busts or do they just play on the Panthers? (alien.top)

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?

Malik Heath has been a nice surprise and has worked his way up to WR5 on the Packers depth chart and seems to have taken over the physical blocking WR type role that Allen Lazard used to provide. He's not showing up in the stats much but the coaches clearly like him and we've seen him pancake guys and block them all the way out of bounds. Not an elite athlete but great effort
