Where will Keyshawn go?

Luxorreb · 03-15-2006, 05:21 AM

Anyone know where Keyshawn will go?
Shocked me that he was released cause his cap wasn't that high and he contributed as the top WR last season for the Cowboys. He also seemed to respect Parcells and the organization. His only outburst was on the kicker. Don't get me wrong, I don't care to have the guy in Washington, but I'm curious as to where he'll end up. Cause he maybe 34 but he's still got some football left.
As far as speculation w/ Lavar with the Giants or TO on the Cowboys I'm not scared of either.

Luxorreb · 03-15-2006, 05:28 AM

Ofcourse the obvious reply is who cares...
and well I don't really, but I am curious....

whereever old possession receivers go to die.

he got cut to avoid paying a roster bonus. they're obviously making space for a run at TO.

D'BOYZ · 03-15-2006, 09:55 AM

there has been reports that the reason he got cut where to a) apperently he's contemplaying retirement , this came as a newsflash to me because I hadn't heard anything and b) do to the expansion of the Cap and seeing a lot of 3rd wr with less production B. Lloyd, Randall El to name the most come get 11 mill in signing bonus and he was only going to make 2 mill this year apperently he wanted a raise and has the numbers to ask for it.

so know that's what he was drop there's a lot of unsertenty about TO if he's going to sign with Dallas if he doesn't I can see KJ comming back he I can see him comming back even if TO signs just like Bruce came back to STL after he was released.

dboyz, being a cowboys fan, what is your opinion on the boys going after TO? talk about oil and water with parcells and TO.

aussieskin · 03-15-2006, 10:02 AM

I really dont care, but if goes to a team we play next year, so we can hurt him that would be good

Eagles are desparate for a WR.

I heard that too. KJ said he wanted a raise and he'd sit out if he didn't get it (and parcells, knowing KJ, believed him). So now he can try to find a better deal, and if he can't get his price, he can limp back to dallas for cheap (probably) regardless of TO. He's an aging a-hole, but still a good possession receiver.

PWNED · 03-15-2006, 10:26 AM

yeah, this is why i disagree about kj being a class act.

jbcjr14 · 03-15-2006, 11:00 AM

I think he goes to either Philly or Atlanta.

After the TO disaster I don't think they would be too eager to sign someone like KJ.

Ok there where 3 comments I wanted to respond here we go:

Well we all can agree that he outplayed his 4 year contract he had 2 great #1 receiver numbers (not pro bowl numbers) he's getting old is not like he can play 2 more years with his current contract and then hope to sign a 5 year deal he would be 36 by then so he wanted a raise, he deserves it 2 he has done everything the organization has ask him to do and more.

2004 981 yards 6td
2005 839 yards 6td

and again he sees all this #2 #3 receiver getting 11+ million signing bonuses and 3 -4 mill base salaries and the yhaven't done as much as he so he says hey I deserve a raise.... even terry glenn is asking for a raise.

2006 salary for KJ (real money if he had signed the roster bonus) 1.5mill

Brandoy Lloyd

2004 565 yards 6TD
2005 733 yards 5td 2006 salary (real money) 10 mill aprox

Antwaan Randle El

2004 601 yards 3TD
2005 558 yards 1TD 2006 salary (real Money) 12 mill aprox.

David Givens
2004 874 yards 3td
2005 738 yards 2td 2006 salary (real money) 9.5 mill aprox

Isaac Bruce
2004 1292 yards 6td
2005 525 yards 3td 2006 salary (real money) 7.3 mill aprox

yes im counting signing bonuses but hey thats almost all the gurenteed money a player gets in their contracts even if he only plays 1 year.

The way KJ sees it this is the last time he can get a big signing bonus and still produce.

look I'm really undecided about this 1 I didn't thought we needed him when we had KJ and Glenn I tought if we could get another wr young with talent that can seat maybe a year ( have catches but not be a #1 or #2) it would be fine.

Right now without KJ it's not a matter of If I like it I see it happenning, I don't mind his talent I don't think nobody does the question is his attitude maybe if it is for 1 year it won't hurth that much... the reason also that I'm undecided it's because a lot of his teamates support him the problems he had was with the organization and Mcnabb, even Portis supports him.

So I don't know how he is in the locker room because a lot of temates wanted him back in philly but for a 3 -5 year contract I can see it bitting it in our ass.

PWNED · 03-15-2006, 11:14 AM

do you see the cowboys in position for a super bowl run though next year? thats what TO is all about.

KJ though should know that this is the changing market and you cant always get a contract change when you want one, its supply and demand, inflation, etc. thats why im glad TOs contract didnt get restructured last year because that would open one hell of a pandoras box.

That Guy · 03-15-2006, 11:15 AM

lloyd and El got more money because they could be better than a guy like KJ in the future and because they're younger.

I don't disagree that KJ outplayed his contract, but that's part of why the money i different. KJ alsso blocked etc which some guys don't feel like doing.

I don't se the KJ situation as a TO remember.. TO had only played 1 year and was making like 7 mill KJ played 2 years had 2 years left with little money for a #1 - #2 receiver and time isn't on his side.... I see it more like Isaac Bruce thing that's why I put him there also is go test the market let see how much they offer you if we can match it we'll love to have you back kind of thing he wants like 4avrg in mi point of view.

Now I really thing we are in position for a superbowl, if we fix our Oline, Kicker and Safety problems and now wr problems, I really belive we have what it takes last year our Oline let us down kept us close in the game and gave the games aways but we had a team that played hard with everyone (excluding the second game against you guys) but if you see the playoffs teams and division finals.... Carolina, beat them held Smith to 1 catch.... Seattle lost in the final minute dumb but only team that held alexander to less then 70 and no tds(im not counting the Phi game because he had 4 tds in the first half didnt play the second)... denver played hard that game was anyones game should had won it but lost it because of our freaking kickers missing 2 fgs.

So I thing we have a team that can make a run but right now I see every team in our division as contenders at least playoffs I don't see NY as a SB contender but a Playoff contender yeah.

Right now the best teams in the NFC in my book are Dallas, Was, Phi, NYG, Seattle, Car, and if I have to put 1 of the central Ill go for Chi another team that seems that could present some problems is Arizona.
