Panthers | Team lands K. Johnson

Redskins8588 · 03-23-2006, 11:54 PM

Did you want him on the skins or something? Look at what is left at the WR postition via FA. What were the panters supposed to do? Draft another useless WR (K. Colbert) and try to bring him along or hope that he can play right out of college? Incase you didnt notice it generally takes a WR atleast 3 years to catch up in the NFL, also, incase you didnt notice the Redskins ( Randle-El, Lloyd), Titans (D. Givins), and Browns (J.Juravisious) pretty much picked the WR part of FA apart and K. Johnson is what is left over...

Overall, no matter how you want to look at it, Johnson is going to help the Panthers...

How does Keary Colbert get that much worse? 700+ yards in his rookie year. 200+ yards in his sophmore. I guess with Steve and Keyshawn you'll get a good 1-2 punch or possibly motivate Keary Colbert to revert back to his rookie form (which he should have been building upon). The way I figure someone on Carolina is going to get 700+ yards from the #2 spot. So good move Carolina.

This is insane...

No complaints about our signings here. My opinion was that Keyshawn can really help Carolina. I guess you disagree.

keyshawn can help them on the field.could become a hugh distraction off of it

I am pointing out the holes in their logic. I think that Keyshawn is an overrated bum who is on the downside of his career. He is a locker room cancer who will not help any team that wants to contend. Apparently everyone else thinks that he would be a good addition to a team that was one step away from the Superbowl. Well I think that all of them are wrong.

Keyshawn is mediocre and his baggage makes him a net negative.

Can you follow that wilso? If you cannot follow the thread pipe down.

I live in Charlotte, about 10 minutes away from Bank of America Stadium and you should hear the radio shows down here this morning. Keyshawn is great, Keyshawn is one of the best. I can't believe how excited these people are for getting a 34 year old possession receiver. Steve Smith was on the radio basically saying, I'll get mine, he'll have to settle for what ever is left. There will be problems with these two. Steve Smith is good as long as he gets the ball. He made a comment last year when they lost, well I caught my 10 for 120+ and 2TDs. So now when his 10 become 4 or 5, hes going to cry like a baby. Anyway, Keyshawn in my backyard, not good. I sometimes run into a player or two during the season, I hope its not this loser.

Hey That guy, remember, 34, downside of his career etc...

blah blah blah, he's filling an obvious need. You think carolina WR situation was good last year with steve smith and no one else?

unlike sam adams, they desperately need a WR, and he came pretty cheaply for his talent level. did you see carolina play last year with the one man receiving corp?

who else at KJ's talent level is still on the market? we got younger receivers already and no one here said he would have been a great pickup for us.

Keyshawn is a bum plain and simple. He is a cancer in the locker room and he opens his mouth when he shouldn't. He was relevent in Tampa Bay.

maybe because different teams have different needs, and at the time KJ signed he was the best available WR left (and still filled a glaring need). I don't know what the problem is with seeing that.

A mediocre Keyshawn on the downside of his career with his baggage is still more talented than any of the sub-mediocre WR's that the panthers have...

After S.Smith, they might as well as bring in the local high school WR's and they would be just a productive as any of the other WR's on the panthers roster. Which one of the Panthers WR's do you expect to step up? Is it Colbert, Carter, Samp, Cherry, Hankton, or that savy 17 year vet Ricky Proehl...

maybe he's not the one that should pipe down.

KJ had 839 yards last year, he's NEVER had less in a full season. the panthers #2 had 440 yards with a better QB. that means this i an upgrade that should help the team. I know you don't like the baggage, but please list all the remaining WR FAs that'd give them 800+ yards this season (as cheaply).

Yes, but statistics are unreliable .... LOL

PSUSkinsFan21 · 03-24-2006, 09:49 AM

I absolutely hate Keyshawn, and if I was a Panthers fan I'd be pissed that my team picked him up because I'd rather lose without him than win with him.

That said, as a neutral observer and football fan, the move vastly improves their WR situation. I hate the guy, but given their terrible WR corp., they now have something they simply didn't before: a legit #2 WR.
