Agreed... he doesnt belong in our system... but he will be ok somewhere else.

[Giant stuck in Texas]

In Carolina he was pretty much unaccounted for and benefitted greatly. The next week in Philly he was covered and did what you can really expect from him - max 2 catches a game.

Now this makes perfect sense and I never thought about it that way.

One game in four years doesn't help the resume. I see him as Sinorice Moss II

Moss never had a game like Barden did against Carolina. True, it was only one game and Carolina players gave him yards of space to play with, but I would have liked to see Barden get more time at the # 3 than Hixon did.

Point is that Barden showed something impressive that game (and if memory serves me correct he had another good game this year as well). Enough for a one year contract if the price is right.

This could be more of an issue for Barden than most would think. It's part of the reason Hixon is well liked by the coaching stafff.

Barden benefited by Cruz being the focus of the Panthers' secondary and, as you point out, they really were playing off him all game long. Hixon missed three games, I think, in 2012. One due to a concussion and two due to an ankle injury. Where was Barden then?

I don't remember -- did they play him and he didn't do anything? Or did they not play him? If the latter, then I would have played him unless RR or JJ were just showing so much more than Barden in practice.

I don't know for sure, but I think at this point in time Barden is going to be released. We have a good receiving corps without him and don't need to bring anyone else because of his release.

He will go someplace else and thrive... Im pretty sure of it.

if Barden turns into even a "fair" receiver i'll be surprised!

Barden is big and tall, thats all!

Moss was 5'8" and couldnt shake anyone to get open... the sad thing is that Barden was never really used in the redzone like most of us thought he would. They never tried with him... someone else will at least try. I agree there is defenitely something wrong with him... but I'm willing to bet there is another coach that can get him on track somewhere. Our WR coach is Kevin Gilbride Jr... Im sure there is someone out there that actually played WR that could truly help him.

Its too bad we should keep Barden, he has the potential to be the next Anthony Mix
